You Better Werk: Kate Bosworth at New York Fashion Week: Fall 2016

Kate Bosworth has been making the rounds over the first three days of New York Fashion Week and doing so in such fine style. Her first appearance was at the Kate Spade New York Fall 2016 RTW presentation where Kate showed up wearing a head to toe black Kate Spade look which included a pair of cropped pants, a short sleeved sweater with a beaded peter pan collar, black clutch, and black suede loafers. I love how this relaxed chic looks makes an impact despite being a head to toe black look. Kate then attended the International Woolmark Prize runway show where she was perched front row wearing a hot off the runway Creatures of the Wind Fall 2016 RTW bold red ensemble which featured a geometric sweater and leather a-line skirt. It was I think the fastest runway to celebrity turnover time in the world and Kate looked absolutely beautiful in it. Yesterday Kate attended the first Rebecca Minkoff Direct-to-Consumer show, where every piece in the collection is now available to purchase, wearing a cute nude pink laced shift dress and thigh high black leather boots. This is probably my favorite look as it was really cold in NYC yesterday but Kate looks unfazed. Rounding out the quartet of looks is the Pre-Fall 2016 look that Kate wore while seated front row a the Altuzarra Fall 2016 RTW presentation. This is a moody modern look with a beautiful pailette embellished bodice and might be my favorite look of the four from Kate. I am hoping that she keeps up appearances during NYFW and continues to do so in high style like she has been.

2014 Grammy Awards: Nominee Wish List Part 2

In her hit song 'Royals' Lorde talks about never seeing diamonds in the flesh, ballgowns, and Cristal and Sunday night she will be in a whirlwind of all of these things and more at the 2014 Grammy Awards. The new artist to the scene is nominated for 4 Grammy's including Record and Song of the Year for 'Royals.' Lorde will also take to the stage during the telecast top perform, but before she does this she will have to take to the red carpet. Lorde attended the 2013 Met Ball as a guest of Chanel so it would not surprise me to see the couture house dress the rising star for this event. I did consider putting Lorde in the recently presented Spring 2014 Couture collection but I think that the collection was too light for the grungy star and I think that this grey textured Chanel Fall 2013 Couture gown is perfect for her for this red carpet. I would love for her to really go balls to the wall with the styling pairing this look with grungy boots and maybe some sort of glove. There are not many that could make a look like that work but Lorde has the confidence to wear couture and make it look like she just threw it on as she was leaving the house like that old hoodie that we all have sitting in the back of our closet.

Now we don't see Pink wear a whole lot of top label designers but I think that she should rock this black Atelier Versace Fall 2013 Couture turtle neck gown with a sheer side panel with beaded trim for the 2014 Grammy Awards on Sunday night. I love that pink has this edgy approach to feminine dressing, and usually makes the two mesh very well and I think that this could be yet another moment where the two blur the lines and fuse together. Pink is nominated for Song of the Year and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for her song 'Just Give Me a Reason' with F.U.N.'s Nate Ruess, and the duo will take to the stage during the telecast to perform together. This sexy and sophisticated ensemble would just be the icing on the top of the cake. Finish the look with a pair of simple Saint Laurent sandals and a red lip and Pink has the perfect Grammy look.

Rihanna has garnered 2 Grammy nomination's including Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for 'Stay' with Mikky Ekko and Best Urban Contemporary Album for 'Unapologetic.' I am hoping that she wow's me like she did in Jean Paul Gaultier Couture at the 2013 American Music Awards and I think that this sexy white Versace Spring 2014 RTW one shoulder gown with a panel of silver draped metal mesh and sky high slit are the way to go. RiRi isn't nominated for the night's two top awards so this more toned down gown would just let Rihanna shine through with her bad ass bitch persona. Finish the look with some cool ear cuff a cuff bracelet, and a pair of silver strappy sandals will make me just squeal with delight as RiRi walks the red carpet!

Much to the worlds chagrin Taylor Swift is nominated for 4 Grammy awards including Album of the Year for 'Red.' I am praying that Taylor brings a little sexy to the red carpet like she did a few times last year at the MuchMusic Video Awards and MTV Video Music Awards in Herve Leger, and the American Music Awards in Julien Macdonald. Each time that Taylor really sexed it up she found herself on my Best Dressed List. I think that this sexy red lace bustier Elie Saab Spring 2014 RTW gown with a flowing chiffon skirt would be the sexy choice for Taylor to make for the red carpet. Pair this dress with sleek pin straight locks, a smokey eye, a neutral lippie, the runway Elie Saab sandals, and Taylor will have a sexy yet sweet look for the 2014 Grammy Awards this Sunday night!

Gossip Girl Week: Blair Waldorf Daywear

Blair Waldorf is one of my absolute favorite characters on Gossip Girl as she always has such impeccable taste and wears a lot of my absolute favorite runway looks for day to day and evening events. Here I have my first of two looks this week for Blair, a day to day casual ensemble. I started this look with the orange top and the blue circle print pencil skirt from Kate Spade's Fall 2012 RTW collection. I thought that it just screamed Blair from the very start and I knew that it was what I was going to feature. I decided to pair it with an orange Lela Rose coat from Net-A-Porter, and a Nancy Gonzalez bag and Arfango shoes that I found in the Style.Com Accessories Index. I think that the always stunning Blair would look absolutely amazing in this look and I really do hope that Eric Damon, the man in charge of putting the wardrobe for the show together, decides that this is worthy of the famous scheming character.
