2016 Peoples Choice Awards Red Carpet Wish List Part 4

While the People's Choice Awards, which are next Wednesday night, are a more cocktail/casual type of red carpet Stana Katic always shows up in a big gown. For this years event I picked this Lela Rose Spring 2016 RTW white and yellow floral silk gown for Stana to wear. I think that this would be a flirty fun moment for Stana on the People's Choice Awards red carpet. I don't believe that this is the right kinda look for this red carpet but a perfect look for Stana. Finished with a white Edie Parker clutch, a pair of gold sandals, a chic updo and a pink lip this look would be absolutely beautiful.

I have been seeing a lot of Taraji P. Henson trying really hard to be sexy on the red carpet recently. I wish she would realize that when she tries so hard that it comes across as desperate. I think that if Taraji wore this red Anthony Vaccarello Spring 2016 RTW aluminum dress studded with silver studs that this dress would add all the sex that she needs. All that she would need to add to this look is a curly hairstyle, a red lip, and a pair of silver sandals to keep the sexy all in the dress and not add an ounce of try hard to this look.

I said in an earlier post that we don't usually see many people wearing couture on the People's Choice Awards red carpet but there are always exceptions. An exception to that rule I think would be Taylor Swift (who is nominated for Favorite Female Singer, Favorite Pop Artist, Favorite Song for "Bad Blood," and Favorite Social Media Celebrity) wearing this deep ruby red Elie Saab Fall 2015 Couture jumpsuit with a plunging neckline. I love this jumpsuit and I would love it the most if Taylor wore the cape but I think that might be a little too much for this red carpet. Make this modern look a little more old Hollywood with a curly bob, a red lip, black clutch, and a pair of black pumps and Taylor would have my hear beating just a little faster as she walks the red carpet.

I am always iffy when I see that Vanessa Hudgens is going to be attending an event. She has a wobbly sense of style and can vary from best to meh to worst from event to event, consistent is one thing Vanessa is not. Presenting with her Grease: Live cohorts Julianne Hough and Carly Rae Jepsen I am expecting Vanessa to stick to her bohemian vibes as she walks the red carpet at the People's Choice Awards. With that in mind I picked this green and orange patterned Valentino Spring 2016 RTW floating mini-dress with it's plunging neckline, side cutouts, and braided wait detail for Vanessa to wear on the red carpet. I think that this is the perfect type of look for her to wear for this red carpet as it is not to much but just the right style for this event. A simple gold clutch, a pair of gold strappy sandals, a nude lip, slight smoky eye, and waves worn back would ensure that this look is finished off perfectly for the People's Choice Awards red carpet.

The finial wish for the 2016 People's Choice Awards, which take place on January 2, 2015, is for Favorite Dramatic TV Actress nominee Viola Davis, who can thank her role as Annalise Keating on the show How To Get Away With Murder. Viola has a very chic and sophisticated type of look and I am very excited to see what she will bring to the red carpet because she knows how to keep getting better and better on the red carpet. For this red carpet I picked this Sachin + Babi Spring 2016 RTW white pencil dress which features a beautiful blue and yellow print on the sleeve. This is such a chic look that it might be a little too sophisticated for this event, but then again Viola did wear an Escada gown to the event last year. I would honestly keep the blue pumps that the gown was paired with at the presentation and add a white clutch to finish this look off to perfection.

Runway Report: Lela Rose Spring/Summer 2016 RTW

Are you in search of pretty florals for spring? (I can hear Miranda Priestly in my head saying "florals for spring? Groundbreaking.") Well then you need look no further than the Lela Rose Spring/Summer 2016 RTW. Lela has a woman. A chic sophisticated woman who is hyper feminine and love to embrace her femininity in her clothing. Her collection reflects that woman. Lela never produces a groundbreaking collection, just ones that women actually want to wear. We see her formula time and again and for some reason it is one that we never tire of. The 5th Avenue socialites and the ladies who lunch will be all over Lela Rose's Spring/Summer 2016 RTW collection for many of their summer events. My favorite look? The yellow short sleeve crop top paired with the flowing pleated ball skirt. This is a perfect look for that midsummer nights ball.

2014 MTV Movie Awards Wish List Part 3

Recently I have not been impressed with Rose Byrne on the red carpet, which is shocking because I used to love her, but her most recent looks have been dowdy and matronly. I am hoping Rose brings edge and glamour to the 2014 MTV Movie Awards red carpet where she is nominated for Best Scared As Shit Performance for her work in 'Insidious: Chapter 2.' This silver Mary Katrantzou Fall 2014 RTW jacquard silk suit would give me the wow moment on Rose that I have been longing for recently. I would not style this suit with a shirt instead opting for a sexy string of diamonds by the yard necklace, a pair of Stella McCartney silver holographic pointed toe pumps, and a red lip to finish off this absolutely fantastic ensemble for an MTV event.

Sandra Bullock was either love or meh on the red carpet over awards season, experimenting with several different looks. What seems to work best on the comedic star are elegant lady like ensembles. Nominated at the MTV Movie Awards for Best Female Performance for 'Gravity,' I am hoping that Sandy brings a lady like elegance to the edgy awards ceremony come April 13th. This blue silk Lela Rose Fall 2014 RTW shift dress would look fantastic on Sandy and would make for such a stunning red carpet moment. Finished with a pair of black patent leather Christian Louboutin pointed toe Pigalle pumps, a red lip, and pin straight locks will finish this look for the MTV Movie Awards.

I had originally wanted to see Shailene Woodley, who will be presenting with her 'A Fault in Our Stars' co-star Ansel Elgort, to wear a black to maroon Elie Saab cocktail dress, but it was sadly worn in an unimpressive way. So I changed my wish to this all maroon Cushnie Et Ochs Pre-Fall 2014 fit-to-flare gown with a deep plunging neckline. Shailene's new stylist Illaria Urbinati has been working wonders with the actress who's style I never really like prior to her recent 'Divergent' press tour. This absolutely amazing dress is something that would make Shailene sexy, which is not a look that she has gone for before. Finish the look with a pair of simple gold sandals and a gold clutch to ensure that Shailene looks perfect for the MTV Movie Awards.

Michelle Obamas 2012 Campaign Trail Look Wish Lists

Also just under a month away on September 3rd the Democratic National Convention kicks off the 2012 Election campaign trail in Charlotte North Carolina. I am 100% positive that Michelle Obama will be at her husbands side as he campaigns across the United States to earn re-election for four more years in office. Michelle not only campaigns with her husband but she spends a good amount of time out campaigning for him on her own. A great look for one of these appearances is this stunning blue, white, and silver Carolina Herrera Pre-Fall 2012 top and skirt. I love when the First Lady wears stunning blue colors and think that this look would be a classic and elegant yet fashion forward choice. I would remove the scarf like detail because it would overwhelm Michelle and add a thin red belt to replace the thin black one that is on the model to show patriotism yet still be fashion forward.  Only thing left to add would be a pair of simple blue pumps to complete the perfect first lady look.

The next look I would love to see Michelle don while she is out on the campaign trail is this navy Donna Karan Pre-Fall 2012 wrap style dress with an accented black bow in the hip. I think that this gown would enhance Michelle's curves and showcase her stunning arms quite well. Michelle much like Donna did whilst styling the collection will most likely pair this dress with a chunky statement necklace but I would hope she would change her shoe choice to be a matching navy or black peep toe pump instead.

This Lela Rose Fall 2012 black and silver abstract stripe printed top paired with black pants would be perfect for an appearance in a city that is colder as this ensemble could handle a number of different color coats to add a bright pop in the dreary cold and still look fab if she was to take the coat off. I would pair this amazing ensemble with a bright fuchsia long single breasted wool trench coat, a pair of black closed toe patent leather pumps and if its really cold a pair of tight black leather gloves to shun the cold and look extremely fabulous.

One designer that I NEVER thought that I would ever see Michelle Obama wear the avant garde high fashion designer Marc Jacobs but in fact the First Lady is a HUGE fan of the designer and has worn his designs many of times for appearances. I think that for the beginning of the campaign headed into early fall that this orange and yellow Marc Jacobs Resort 2013 lace print sheath dress would be a great option. It has fall coloring but in a very elegant avant garde way and I think that Michelle would look amazing with her toffee colored complexion. I would just keep a pair of simple nude pumps to complete her look.

In 2008 Michelle Obama wore a black and red Narciso Rodriguez on the deck of President Obama's victory platform on election night in Chicago and since she has continued to wear the designer many of times. I think that this camel, fuchsia, red, white, and black color blocked dress would be an absolutely amazing option for her to don for an appearance during the election. I think that the first lady who shows that she is definitely not afraid of color would look amazing wearing this dress and I would love for her to pair this with a pair of fuchsia heels, preferably peep toes by Jimmy Choo.

Last but not least we have this red and blue abstract plaid print Peter Som Pre-Fall 2012 dress that nips in at the waist and flares out at the bottom. This is another patriotic option for the First Lady and would be stunning paired with a red cropped bolero for her appearance Election night if her husband is re-elected. Keep the thin black belt and add a pair of black peep toe pumps and the look will be complete.

Gossip Girl Week: Lily Humprey Daywear Wish

Lily Humphrey (aka Bass and Van Der Woodson) is the epitome of upscale upper east side older socialite. I think that for an everyday look that Lily would wake up and see this amazing white Lela Rose Fall 2012 RTW sheath dress with amazing gold shoulder details and would wear it for lunch with the girls or a business meeting. I think it should be paired with a gold clutch and some gold closed toe pumps and just add a trench coat if she decides to go out

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.

2012 Oscar Presenter Wish List: Angie, Cameron, Halle, Jenny, Kristen, and Rose

 And the ball starts rolling today. The biggest night in fashion the 2012 Academy Awards is set to take place in just two short weeks, and the Academy has been busy releasing the names of celebrities set to present at this years ceremony. Angelina Jolie was no doubt going to attend as her long time boyfriend Brad Pitt is nominated for Best Actor in a Leading Role. The stunning starlet who tends to favor black should turn to the Elie Saab Fall 2011 Couture runway for her gown for this years awards ceremony. Ever since I saw this nude embellished gown with a neck scarf and a thigh high split I have been waiting with bated breath for the stunning Mrs Jolie to don it for an event, and what platform would be better than the red carpet at the Oscars. I love when Elie dresses an Academy Awards attendee as I am always left speechless and with another Best Dressed nominee. I would pair this dress with a metallic gold Jimmy Choo tube clutch and some strappy Jimmy Choo gold metallic sandals.

 Now I will say I was hoping that Cameron Diaz was not going to be one of the presenters at this years Oscars ceremony just because I know that she wants to wear this dress because when she was front row at the Armani Spring 2012 Couture presentation in Paris just last month it has been noted that she turned to Giorgio Armani's niece and brand ambassador and said 'That is absolutely stunning' so I guess there is almost no doubts in my mind that she will wear this even though I would love for Best Actress in a Supporting Role nominee Jessica Chastain to wear this instead. Anyway, Cameron should pair this also with a metallic gold clutch and some gold strappy sandals.

 Next we have Halle Berry who also presented last year at the Academy Awards. I am keeping the same strapless mermaid silhouette but changing the rest by giving her this stunning black and silver abstract print Lela Rose Fall 2012 RTW gown that just walked the runway in New York City just a few days ago. The designer has never had an Oscars red carpet moment and I think that Halle is just the right woman to bring that moment to us as she would look absolutely stunning in this design. Just a pair of black peep toe pumps and them some seriously stunning diamond creations would be perfect for this look.

 Jennifer Lopez is also set to present at the Oscars this year. The last time she did she had an amazing promotional tour resulting in a space on my best dressed list for that year. I would love for her to do that again and I would say if she wore this ice blue Zuhair Murad Spring 2012 Couture mermaid gown then she would look absolutely stunning and full of diva-tude. A crystal encrusted Judith Leiber clutch and some crystal encrusted sandals would make this look sizzle and then some amazing diamond earrings and a statement diamond cuff would finish off this look with a diva song.

 Kristen Wiig has had a horrible run this awards season on the red carpet. I believe that after last years Emmy Awards where the stunning comedienne stepped out in a chocolate brown and caramel ombre Zac Posen gown and has not been able to live up to that moment since. I would like her to try for elegance again by wearing this Z Spoke by Zac Posen Fall 2012 RTW gown. I think that it is within the simplicity that is needed for her to look stunning and I wouldn't complicate it with accessories either just a pair of gold diamond encrusted earrings, gold clutch, and gold peep toe pumps, are what is needed to make this look elegant and keep her off the worst dressed lists.

And last but not least we have Kristen Wiig's 'Bridesmaids' co-star, Rose Byrne, who is going to be alongside her as they present at this years ceremony. Rose has become quite the fashionista and made a huge splash. I would love for her to step out wearing this stunning embellished lace petal Valentino Spring 2011 Couture peach colored gown with off the shoulder sleeves. I think that Rose would look absolutely stunning in this gown and I hope that she wears it as I would really love to see this grace a red carpet at some point and what point better than the Oscars. I think a pair of champagne pink colored peep toe pumps and some great diamond jewelry would just take this look to the next level.

Teen Choice Awards Dress Picks: The Jennifers and Jordana

Its black, mini, and sleeveless which unless its in a nude or beigey color Jennifer would never touch it. I am so bored with her and I know that if she wore this dress she wouldn't wear a pair of gold sandals but a pair of black pumps probably of the Brian Atwood Manic style. NEXT!

Jennifer Lawrence started this year strong in designers like Louis Vuitton and Prabal Gurung, but finished her run in that horrible Calvin Klein at the Oscars. As Jennifer is about to start her promo tour for her new film based on the hit series of novels "The Hunger Games" Jenn will have to once again try to up her style. I picked this yellow and orange dress because I think that she would look stunning in it and would accentuate her new brunette locks perfectly. I would recommend a small drop earring and a pair of pale orange Burak Uyan sandals.

Now if anyone can bring the diva to the event it is JLo. I mean the green dress on the left is what she wore to meet the future king and queen of England! So I have established that JLo brings the diva to every outfit she wears and that would be no different with this silver and white stripped Cushine Et Ochos Resort 2012 dress. She should not shorten it or make it strapless just pair it with a hot pair of chandelier earring and electric blue Jimmy Choo sandals.

Last but not least for today we have Jordana Brewster. I choose this sexy yet classy red ruched Zac Posen Resort 2012 strapless cocktail dress. I would pair this dress with a red Alexander McQueen embellished clutch, red Christian Louboutin d'orsay pumps, and fancy diamond drop earrings.

Teen Choice Awards Celebirty Dress Picks: The A's

Angelina wears black extremely well but most of the time the black she picks is boring so that is why I have picked this Marchesa Fall 2011 dress with a peplum hip and a lot of interesting details. I would want her to have the dress made strapless and wear some killer Nicholas Kirkwood heels to add the perfect pop of color.

Anna Farris has a quirky personality and this white feather Versace Fall 2011 RTW cocktail dress would accentuate that perfectly. I would pair a pair of lime Christian Louboutin sandals would also provide the perfect pop of color to the quirky dress.

Anna Paquin is a HUGE Alexander McQueen fan and so I choose this black dress from the Fall 2011 RTW collection. I of course would not pair the dress with the leather leggings, gloves, or the collar. The dress is such a statement I would just pair it with simple black pumps, possibly these ones from Salvatore Ferragamo.

 Ashley Greene looks amazing in bright colors which is why I picked this extremely dramatic Lela Rose Resort 2012 dress. I would pair the dress with matching shoes by Ashleys favorite shoe designer Brian Atwood.
