2015 Peoples Choice Awards Wish List Part 2

Jennifer Lopez, nominated for Favorite Pop Artist, at next weeks Peoples Choice Awards is always one that I look forward to seeing on the red carpet. The stunning Latina works the red carpet like the true diva that she is. I pray that she brings her sparking personality to the PCA red carpet. I picked this silver all over embellished Zuhair Murad Fall 2014 Couture long sleeve silver cocktail dress with an asymetrical hem for the pop star because from the moment that I first saw the dress take to the runway back in July I have wanted to see star in it. Styled simply with a silver box clutch and a pair of silver Christian Louboutin sandals and a red lip I think we would have a more than stunning red carpet moment for Jenny from the Block.
"Scandal" star Kerry Washington has earned herself a nomination for Peoples Choice Favorite Dramatic TV Actress and she is another that I can not wait to see take to the red carpet. I love that Kerry takes fashion risks while owning absolutely everything that she puts on her body. For the Peoples Choice Awards I picked this acid yellow Peter Pilotto Spring 2015 RTW paisley cocktail dress that has sheer embroidered polyester construction with an a-line mini skirt, a high round neck, and paisley embellishments at the front. As the dress is such a bold statement I would keep the stunning minimal with just a simple pair of yellow Stuart Weitzman 'Nudist' sandals and a simple gold box clutch would finish this look off in a way that would only enhance the stunning dress. Hair pulled back into a tight bun and a nude lip would finish this look off perfectly for the PCA's.

Runway Report: Giambattista Valli Fall 2014 Couture

After a few seasons presenting a collection of mini dresses with a finale filled gowns Giambattista Valli went back to the roots that made him a star. Volume. Lots and lots of volume. Floral embellishments and updated classic silhouettes. The uber chic woman that is the Giambattista Valli client is now ready to take on Paris in a brand new light. She will have lunch in the chicest of cafes, dinner in the glitziest of restaurants, and finish the night taking in the opera wearing one of the stunning gowns. Black and white played stark to the lilac, ice blue, yellows, and pinks that gave a more spring time color palate than fall but will undoubtedly well embraced on red carpets around the world far past the Spring 2014 Couture presentations.

2013 Golden Globe Awards: Everyone Else Wish List Part 2


Eva Longoria ended her hit TV series 'Desperate Housewives' last year but will be on hand at this years Golden Globe Awards to help present an award. Eva is either a major hit or a tragic miss on the red carpet and lately there have been a lot more misses than hits. I think that if she put on this amazing gold Georges Hobeika Spring 2013 RTW gown that she would be a hit. Eva tends to go for the overly dramatic which sometime works out well (in case of her pink Marchesa gown at last years Cannes Film Festival) but I think that simple silhouette that this gown provides is just the right amount of drama needed for an event like this one tonight. Finish this look off with a gold clutch, gold peep toe pumps, and some amazing diamond jewelry and she will stun.
Halle Berry is not one of the people that I look forward to seeing on the red carpet but I pain through seeing her every time she steps out. The 46 year old actress still dresses like she is 25 and I believe that it is time for her to garner a more sophisticated way of dressing. I think that this black and gold body hugging Badgley Mischka Pre-Fall 2013 gown would be the perfect option for Halle. This gown would show off all her famous curves without showing off too much. Pair this gown with gold strappy Jimmy Choo sandals and Halle's spunk and she has a winning look
Last week on the day that the Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced that Jennifer Lopez would be attending the Golden Globe Awards as a presenter, Mrs Lopez tweeted a picture of a room full of glamorous gowns saying that she hoped she could find a dress. I looked to see if this red Zuhair Murad Fall 2012 Couture gown was on the racks but it seemed to be a sea of black, grey, silver, and white and I was disappointing to not see this but who knows what will actually be worn. I think that this gown is a total JLo dress and she would work it like it owed her back rent. Finish the look with some black sandals and some stunning jewels and she will look amazing.
Kate Hudson has always been one of my favorites on the red carpet because no matter how fussy of a dress that she may wear Kate always looks glamorous and elegant. Whether wearing an Atelier Versace gown or an Alexander McQueen tuxedo, or a Dolce and Gabbana bodysuit, Kate always looks great. For the Golden Globe Awards where Kate is also a presenter I think that she should wear this light gold Emilio Pucci Pre-Fall 2013 gown. I saw the pictures of this gown from multiple angles on twitter from fashion editors and stylists and buyers who were at the presentation and I fell in love with it right then and there. Pair this with a sparkling pale gold clutch and sandals as well as some vintage jewelry and I know Kate would be on my best dressed list.
Kerry Washington had a great run this week while premiering her latest film 'Django: Unchained,' which is nominated for Best Picture. Kerry will be on hand as a presenter tonight and I think that this very 60's inspired tangerine Jenny Packham Spring 2013 RTW gown would be perfect for the star. She loves to have fun with fashion and has wowed us as a L'Oreal Paris spokesmodel walking the red carpets of the Cannes Film Festival and this has been the first time in a very long time that we have been able to see Kerry break out the showstopping gowns. Pair this gown with a gold clutch, gold pumps, and some gold earrings and she is set.
From one L'Oreal Paris girl to another we have a wish for 'Glee' star and new L'Oreal spokesmodel Lea Michele. Since she has broken out onto the red carpet scene Lea has had a great bond with Oscar de la Renta and they do seem to pair well together. I would love to see her wear this burnt orange Oscar de la Renta Pre-Fall 2013 mermaid gown. Lea loves over the top glamor and has had some show stopping moments and some tragic missteps but I am really looking forward to seeing her on the red carpet this year. Finish this look with the runway clutch, some gold sandals, and some amazing vintage jewelry and Lea will leave me in shock and awe.
Versace does not have any official brand ambassadors like Chanel and Dior do but if they were Lucy Liu would definitely be one of them. Now I know that I am making a very bold wish for her to wear this pink Atelier Versace Fall 2012 Couture gown for the 2013 Golden Globe Awards. This is a risk not because it is Versace but because it is a print and traditionally bold printed gowns like this are saved for music stars for the likes of the American Music Awards, the VMA's, or the Grammy's but I think that this is a perfect choice for Lucy as she is one of the few that could pull of this gown. Add the finishing touches of a silver clutch, silver crystal embellished sandals, and some simple jewelry and she is going to be the talk of the red carpet.
Rosie Huntington-Whitely is not a presenter for the 2013 Golden Globe Awards but her long time boyfriend Jason Statham is and I am hoping that she will attend with him. If she does I would love to see her wear this simple black Antonio Bearadi Spring 2013 RTW gown. I would modify this gown to remove the exaggerated peplum as it is a lot for someone who is not a presenter or a nominee. Finish the look with sleek black accessories and some stunning diamonds and even though she would just be a plus one tonight she will look smoking hot and be on any best dressed list.

2012 Emmy Awards Presenters Wish List

 'Revenge' star Emily VanCamp will make her major awards show red carpet debut at the 2012 Emmy Awards on Sunday night where she is set to be one of the presenters. While Emily has a beautiful look and could pull off some amazing avant garde and couture worthy looks she is still new to the scene and I think that baby steps are needed to launch her upon society. I have chosen this aqua blue one shouldered Monique Lhuillier Spring 2013 RTW gown that is hot of the runway at New York Fashion Week. I think that with Emily's skin tone and blonde hair that she would look amazing in this color of a gown and that it would stand out in what is no doubt going to be a sea of black gowns on Sunday. Pair this with a matching Edie Parker clutch and silver Jimmy Choo 'Lance' sandals as well as some amazing earrings and a statement bracelet and she will make her first best dressed list.
 Lucy Liu is also going to be one of the presenters at this years Emmy Awards, the actress who will be staring in the new CBS show 'Elementary' which starts on September 27th. The star will most likely wow us when she steps out on the red carpet as she usually does. I would love to see her wear this magenta Atelier Versace Fall 2012 Couture one shouldered gown. I think that this would be an amazing option for her as the color would look amazing on her and it is avant garde. Pair this with a small silver Leiber clutch and some silver strappy sandals and some simple bling and she is set to shock and awe as she overtakes the red carpet from the nominees.
Last year Martha Plimpton unexpectedly wowed me wearing a burgundy beaded Zac Posen gown and I am hoping she keeps her track record clean. I would love to see her wear this amazing Reem Acra Resort 2013 gown but instead of the stone color I would love to see her wear it in an elegant black. I would love to see this because I think it would be extremely elegant. Pair it with a emerald green stone clutch, black pumps, and some emerald and diamond jewelry to complete this look.
