2016 Costume Designers Guild Awards Red Carpet Wish List

Tuesday night are the last of the guild awards before the Oscars next Sunday night, the Costume Designers Guild Awards. I am excited to see who will be out on the CDG Awards red carpet as all of Hollywood is going to be out in LA for all of the Oscar week festivities. I hope Alicia Vikander is on the red carpet as the costume designers for her films The Danish Girl and Ex Machina are nominated. Alicia has been having a wonderful year of the red carpet as a Louis Vuitton ambassador, but I am hoping that she will dazzle us in something not LV on the red carpet since she is sure to wear the brand on Oscar night. I would love to see Alicia on the red carpet at the Costume Designers Guild Awards wearing this amazing silver Alberta Ferretti Limited Edition Spring 2016 Couture beaded fringe cocktail dress. This is something that is a little out of Alicia's wheelhouse but yet still chic and elegant. I would not take this look into full costume territory with 20s styling. I would have Alicia style her hair into old Hollywood waves over one shoulder and add a killer pair of silver pumps to ensure that the dress is the statement of this look.
Cate Blanchett is going to be at the Costume Designers Guild Awards as she is the recipient of this years LACOSTE Spotlight Award. Cate is a dream to dress for Sandy Powell, and any costume designer she comes into contact with, and is being honored for wearing clothes so well. I would love to see Cate, who was back on top form in Alexander McQueen on BAFTA night, wearing this brown and teal Valentino Spring 2016 Couture gold embroidered velvet gown with side cutouts. This gown has the potential to look like old curtains but I think that Cate's grace and elegance would make this a regal red carpet moment. While side cutouts might not be her thing to wear on the red carpet I think that in this case that Cate would maintain her regal style and elegance. A gold clutch, chic updo, glamorous fresh faced makeup, diamond cluster earrings, and a pair of gold sandals would ensure that Cat stands tall and regal on the Costume Designers Guild Awards red carpet.
Daisy Ridley has been a killer force on the red carpet since she burst onto the scene during the Star Wars: The Force Awakens promo tour. The films costume designer is nominated at the Costume Designers Guild Awards on Tuesday and I am hoping that Daisy will be on the red carpet. I think that chances are likely since Daisy is one of the presenters at the Oscars next Sunday. For the CDG Awards I would love to see Daisy keep expanding her designer repertoire and wear this amazing Oscar de la Renta Fall 2016 RTW photographic floral jacquard printed draped tea length a-line gown. I think that is would be a very chic and classic way for Daisy to kick off Oscar week. I am probably the most excited to see what Daisy is going to wear over Oscar week and I think that this would be a perfect look for her to rock. A pink clutch to match the print, a chic updo, black sandals and a light pink lip would ensure that Daisy continues to wow on the red carpet.
Kiernan Shipka is the one former star of Mad Men that is able to consistently able to give me stellar red carpet moments. I am hoping that she will be on hand at the Costume Designers Guild Awards as she always makes me swoon. Recently we have seen Kiernan start to expand her style and experiment with more grown up looks. I would love to see Kiernan wearing this gunmetal grey J. Mendel Fall 2016 RTW pleated asymmetrical gown as I think it's a chic more grown up look on the red carpet, but still appropriate for a 16 year old to wear on the red carpet. Chic waves, fresh faced makeup, a gunmetal clutch, and a pair of gunmetal Jimmy Choo sandals would ensure that Kiernan has a gorgeous red carpet moment at the CDG Awards.
The costume designer for American Horror Story: Hotel is nominated for a Costume Designers Guild Award and I am sure that Lady Gaga is going to be on hand as you could very much see her influence on costuming with couture designers like Ashi Studio and Stephane Rolland (favorites of Gaga) featured on the show. I would love to see Gaga wearing this embellished and feathered Saint Lauren Fall 2016 RTW Part 1 dress on the red carpet. Gaga was on hand at the Hollywood Palladium for this presentation and I think that this is probably the look that screams her name the most. This major 60's moment is something that I think Gaga is one of the only that could make this look not look like a costume. I would not have the thick black belt in favor of a thin silver Prada bow belt and add a pair of silver pumps would ensure that Gaga would have a major red carpet moment.
Lily James was in Cinderella alongside Cate Blanchett and the film is nominated for a Costume Designers Guild Award. I am hoping that Lily is on the red carpet and chooses this pink Elie Saab Spring 2016 Couture 3D floral embroidered cocktail dress. Lily wore Elie Saab quite a few times while promoting the movie and I would love to see her end wearing this flirty cocktail dress. Lily is not herself nominated so I think that couture is appropriate since it is a cocktail dress. I would add a pair of gold pumps, old Hollywood waves over one shoulder, and a pink lip to finish this look perfectly for Lily and the CDG Awards.

Runway Report: Saint Laurent Fall 2016 at the Hollywood Palladium

 After foregoing showing the Saint Laurent menswear collection during Paris Men's Fashion Week Heidi Silmane showed his Fall 2016 Menswear and Part 1 of his Fall 2016 Womenswear collection to a house packed full of celebrities at the Hollywood Palladium. Amidst rumors that that he is leaving Heidi showcased my favorite Saint Laurent collection under his reign this far. The move to LA saw a different side of the Saint Laurent woman and man. This collection was heavily 60's and 70's movie star inspired with pieces that look like the could have been incorporated into an actor or actresses wardrobes from pieces that were costumes from movies that they were in (the red velvet cape with the gold trim pictured above and the 17th century inspired embroidered men's jacket bellow). Of the men's collection my favorite piece, and the one I covet the most, is the amazing sequined biker jacket. I want that for when I am running from show to show during New York Fashion Week next February.
My favorite look from the women's collection was the green chiffon gown which featured ostrich feather trimming at the neck and on the wrists. I am majorly hoping that January Jones gets her hands on that dress because I think that her type of glamour would just make this not look like a costume on the red carpet. I am intrigued to see where this collection will end up and what will be worn. Will some of the menswear make it onto the Grammy Awards red carpet on Monday night? Will we see it on Oscar night? Who will Heidi bring to the Met Ball? All questions that I have as this collection is just that good. A great kick off to fashion month.
Make sure you check out all my favorite looks from the Fall 2016 RTW collections (and my immediate wishes) over on my Pinterest page.

Front Row: Saint Laurent at the Hollywood Palladium

Stars of fashion, film, television, and music came out in droves last night for the Saint Laurent at the Hollywood Palladium presentation of the Fall 2016 Menswear and Part 1 of the Fall 2016 Womenswear collections by Hedi Slimane for Saint Laurent. Heidi went the route that Tom Ford did with his Fall 2015 RTW presentation last year but instead of capitalizing on the Oscars Heidi capitalized on the star force in LA out out for the Grammy Awards. Music stars like Justin Beiber, Miguel, Joan Jett, Lady Gaga and Mark Ronson were seated amongst the likes of Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Jane Fonda, the Fanning sisters, Emma Roberts, and Sylvester Stallone. Check out the gallery bellow to see all the stars that were in attendance.

You Better Werk!: Dakota Johnson at the "How To Be Single" NYC Premiere in Saint Laurent

Dakota Johnson was the epitome of boho chic meets Studio 54 glamour at the New York City premiere of How To Be Single wearing custom Saint Laurent. I will be the first to say that I have not been the biggest fan of Dakota's red carpet styling but recently she has been hitting her mark every single time that she steps out on the red carpet. This nude Saint Laurent gown embellished with silver stars just made me smile. Everything about this look was absolutely perfect, from the pulled back waves and the soft browns of her makeup to the Fred Leighton rings and Judith Leiber clutch. I continue to enjoy seeing Dakota on the red carpet and I hope that she just keeps getting better.

2016 Golden Globe Awards: Presenter & Plus One Wish List

Heading to the Golden Globe Awards on Sunday night will be Televovela star and creator Eva Longoria. I have to say that Eva is either really good for me or she completely misses the mark, and she usually only hits the mark at the Cannes Film Festival. I am hoping though that when she steps out to present at the Globes that she is on point. I would love to see Eva get her hands on this vermilion orange Prabal Gurung Spring 2016 RTW gown with a velvet halter blouse and silk chiffon skirt. I think that this bold color, yet very sleek, gown would make for such a magical modern red carpet moment. Not every look that takes to a red carpet has to exude old Hollywood glamour, and while Eva does know how to work old Hollywood I would love to see her give us something a little different on the red carpet. I would pair this gown with a pair of strappy gold sandals, sun-kissed makeup, and a sleek pony tail to give Eva a modern glam moment on the Golden Globes red carpet.
Jada Pinkett Smith will most likely be on the red carpet on Sunday night on the arm of her husband, and Best Performance by a Motion Picture - Drama nominee, Will Smith. I used to love seeing Jada on the red carpet but with a lot of the looks that she wore on the red carpet at the end of 2015 just made me cringe. I am hoping that sexy, yet not trying to hard, Jada is back on Sunday night. I think that this simple white Alexandre Vauthier Spring 2016 RTW spaghetti strap gown with a plunging neckline, gold embellished waist detail, and central split would be just what I would love to see Jada wearing as she supports the man she loves. This simple gown is perfect since Jada would just be attending as Will's plus one and not a nominee, supporting a show or film she is in, or presenting. Finish this look with a gold Edie Parker clutch, a pair of strappy Christian Louboutin sandals, and a red lip and Jada will be sexy and sophisticated on the Globes red carpet.
Jenna Dewan-Tatum is always one of the best dressed plus one's that takes to the red carpets when she is on the arm of her husband Channing Tatum, who's presenting on Sunday night. I was a little less than enthused with the sheer lace Marchesa gown that Jenna wore to the premiere of Channing's latest film The Hateful Eight, so I am hoping that she will be a little more clothed at the Golden Globe Awards. I think that this raspberry pink Reem Acra Pre-Fall 2016 one shouldered draped gown, while almost a red carpet standard, is something that Jenna would look exceptional wearing on the red carpet. This gown is chic and elegant while not being anything too much. Finished with a silver clutch, a pair of silver sandals, a red lip, chic updo, and a pair of dazzling diamond earrings will finish this look off perfectly for the red carpet at the Golden Globe Awards.
I am very nervous about what Jennifer Lopez is going to wear on the red carpet when she shows up to present at the Golden Globe Awards. Last year she brought a lot of drama via a caped Zuhair Murad caped gown (which one could say was too much) and then as the year went on her gowns started having less and less fabric. I always believe that the film and television awards are glamour required and the gowns that JLo has been wearing have been more on the tacky side than glamorous side. I went into the Zuhair Murad archives and picked this forest green Fall 2013 Couture strapless pleated gown. I love this gown and I would love to see it on the red carpet and I think that Jennifer would exude her sexy glamour, without looking tacky, wearing this stunning creation. A matching clutch and gunmetal silver sandals, along with old Hollywood waves, a smoky eye, and a pair of diamond cluster earrings would ensure that this is a JLo look to remember.
Maggie Gyllenhaal is another that I have a love or hate type of relationship with on the red carpet. Usually I enjoy her at the big awards shows, but she often picks looks that fade into the background. I am hoping that she brings her a-game to the red carpet at the Golden Globes on Sunday where she is going to be on hand as a presenter. I picked this chic winter white Ralph Lauren Pre-Fall 2016 high bow detailed neck, long sleeved column gown for Maggie to wear. This is a modern yet classic type of look with no muss or fuss which I think Maggie would appreciate. With such a simple classic look I think that this gown would be perfectly styled with a gold Prada clutch, a pair of gold Prada sandals, a vintage inspired style for her bob, a red lip, and a pair of yellow gold set Van Cleef & Arpels diamond earrings for Maggie's Golden Globe red carpet moment.
Naomi Watts will most likely be on the arm of her husband, Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series - Drama nominee, Liev Schreiber at the Golden Globe Awards on Sunday night. At the 2015 Emmy Awards Naomi played this same role wearing a Dior Couture cocktail dress which failed to impress or excite. I would keep her look simple, as she is not the focus of the night I think that something like this silver Saint Laurent Spring 2016 RTW embellished gown would be a perfect choice for her. I think that Naomi would shine bright like a diamond and play the part of the perfect plus one in this simmering gown which is not overly fussy and elegant. Styled with a sleek silver clutch, a pair of silver sandals, sleek hair, red lip, and a pair of diamond drop earrings this look could contend for best dressed against some of the nominees.

#VMAs2015: Miley Cyrus Hosting Wardobe Wish List

A few hours before MTV announced the nominees for this years Video Music Awards they made an announcement that Miley Cyrus is going to be the hostess of this years ceremony. A bold choice since Miley is known for being so controversial, anyone else remember the 2013 VMA's? I gotta say that I am actually really excited to see what Miley pulls out of the closet for the VMA's. I would love to see Miley wear this black Alexandre Vauthier Fall 2015 Couture gown with a plunging neckline, embellished waist, and feathered train for the VMA red carpet. This is sexy and slinky, two of Miley's check boxes for a red carpet look, which is perfect for the VMA's red carpet. This is an elegant yet sexy statement. Finished with a red lip and a pair of black sandals this would be a best dressed look for Miley to wear for the VMA red carpet.
We all know that chic sophisticated Miley will only rear her head once or maybe twice during this years VMA's and I honestly cant decide which type of look I am most looking forward to seeing, Chic yet sexy Miley or WTF Miley?  I am sure that Miley has had this white catsuit from The Blonds Fall 2015 RTW collection that features embellished pasties and uhmmmm vajazzling. This look screams Miley and I honestly can't say that I would be mad at it. This is the VMA's where anything goes, even meat dresses. I also think that this hip hop-esque Moschino Fall 2015 RTW gold leather bralet and patchwork denim and gold leather jeans is a perfect look for Miley to wear for the VMAs. Miley and Jeremy Scott have a good relationship and I am sure that at least one look that Miley wears for the VMA's is going to be from Moschino. For a more high end look I think that this zebra print and black sequin Saint Laurent Fall 2015 RTW mini dress is sexy and tacky and wow which Miley loves to work as well. Finally I gotta say that I have been waiting for Miley to wear this red Atelier Versace Spring 2015 Couture bralet and pant ensemble since it was first presented back in January. I think that this is that chic sophisticated sexy that Miley would look amazing wearing on stage at the VMA's. It is really hard to predict what Miley will wear? Is she going to go down the chic route or is it going to be a total disaster? I guess we will just have to wait and see.

Yves St Laurent Returns to Couture! (Kinda)

 It was announced this morning that Saint Laurent was going to be relaunching itself back into couture under the Yves Saint Laurent label. Back in 2012 when Heidi Slimane first stepped into the role of Creative Director at YSL and dropped the Yves from the name he also hinted to the fashion world that he was going to be saving the Yves Saint Laurent label for a return to haute couture at some point. Well that day has come, kinda. Yves Saint Laurent will be creating custom "couture" pieces but there will be no presentation of seasons during Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week any time soon.
 Heidi Slimane is going to only be creating Yves Saint Laurent Couture for a personally selected group of individuals. The collection will be created with the clients personally and on a case by case basis. We do get a sneak peak into what the collection will include with an all black and white ad campaign that Heidi Slimane shot himself in the YSL Atelier in Paris. Classic suits and timeless gowns were what was featured mostly in the campaign, but we have been told that the Yves Saint Lauren couture collection is not just limited to formal wear for women but will also include everyday wear as well as menswear. To get Yves Saint Laurent couture one must apply and then be personally selected by Mr Slimane.
I have also been told that the Yves Saint Laurent Couture label will work with clients to recreate those enviable "custom" red carpet looks that celebrities wear for major movie premieres, awards shows, and film festivals that are worn under the Saint Laurent label. I have to say that I am really excited to see where the Yves Saint Laurent Couture label goes. The house of Saint Laurent has had a 25% increase in sales in the last year and I am hoping that if the couture label really takes off and sells that one day in the near future we will actually see Yves Saint Laurent back on the couture circuit during Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week.

What Should You Wear? Haute Couture Fashion Week

While running around the streets of Paris in July for the Couture shows next week the fashionistas will be battling temperatures in the 90s and 100s. I am sure that we will see the ladies working lots of flowing dresses, skirts, chiffon tops, and shorts. 

Giambattista Valli floral print silk chiffon blouse - Matches Fashion
Valentino cotton blend lace shorts - Net-a-Porter
Saint Laurent monogramme matelasse shoulder bag - Bergdorf Goodman

2015 Critics Choice Awards Wish List Part 1

With a snub at tonight's Golden Globe Awards, which I am not sure if we will see Mrs Jolie at or not, Angelina Jolie's Oscar campaign is off to a rough start. Her sophomore film as a director "Unbroken" did however earn her a nomination for Best Director at the Critics Choice Movie Awards Thursday night. We will know by the time to red carpet opens if her awards season journey will start and end in the evening or if she will continue on to Academy Awards as the film nominations come earlier that morning. For the Critics Choice Awards red carpet I would love to see Angie really bring a masculine dressing to its feminine knees by wearing this Saint Laurent Spring 2015 RTW suit ensemble. I love that the coat is a mix of vintage tail coat with an oversized double breasted suit jacket, add the masculine pant shape and the black chiffon blouse and I think that this is a look made for Angelina. Finish the look with flowing Veronica Lake waves, a red lip, diamond cluster earrings, and a pair of black Saint Laurent pumps and Angie is ready to take on the critics.
Surprisingly Emily Blunt's nomination at Thursday nights Critics Choice Movie Awards is not for "Into The Woods," instead she is nominated for Best Actress in an Action Movie for her work in "Edge of Tomorrow." That one day 3 city 3 look promo tour was amazing and Emily really had a great 2014 on the red carpet and I am expecting that will continue through the 2015 Academy Awards. For the Critics Choice Awards I would love to see Emily wear this turquoise degrade Elie Saab Spring 2015 RTW silk georgette sleeveless gown. I love this color, it really is my favorite color, and I think that Emily is the right woman to take this gown and make it sing a beautiful song on the red carpet. Add a simple pair of diamond earrings, a turquoise clutch, and a pair of pool blue sandals to accessorize this look perfectly with a beauty look like a simple updo and a red lip and Emily will be like a cool drink of water working the Critics Choice Movie Awards red carpet.
Emma Stone always makes bold red carpet choices that usually leave me breathless. I think that this would be the case if she showed up at the 2015 Critics Choice Movie Awards, where she is nominated for Best Supporting Actress, wearing this black and white Nina Ricci Spring 2015 RTW patchwork lace gown that features a reverse halter neck, a sheer mesh back panel and an asymmetric draped skirt. I think that this gown is classic with a twist which is the perfect type of look for the Critics Choice Awards. Finish the look with a bold clutch, simple black sandals, a chic updo, and a bold red lip and Emma will have another look that would blow me away.
Felicity Jones has a red carpet safety zone when it comes to colors. She is usually in dark dark colors or in very pale colors. I figure that at the Critics Choice Movie Awards Thursday night we will see Felicity in a dark color. Nominated for Best Actress thanks to "The Theory of Everything," I would love to see Felicity wear this midnight blue Zac Posen Pre-Fall 2014 floral jersey cutout gown. I think that this classic silhouette is perfect for this awards show which is much less formal than tonight's Golden Globe Awards. A matching midnight blue Edie Parker clutch and dyed to match Charlotte Olympia pumps would finish this look off perfectly for the Critics Choice red carpet.
I do not like Jennifer Aniston, never have, and it is likely that I never will. I just do not understand her draw. She is boring and never breathes any life into the looks that she is wearing. Its like she is a tan mannequin with hair that matches the rest. She wears white, cream, nude, and black for every red carpet and mostly black. That is white I picked this Naeem Khan Pre-Fall 2015 v-neck gown with an exaggerated keyhole at the back, and crystal beading throughout the floor length mermaid silhouette. While I do not think that she breaths any life into the looks she wears this classically pretty beaded gown the dress might make her shine where her personality lacks. Ok. Done.
Jennifer Lawrence is nominated for Best Actress in an Action Movie at Thursday nights Critics Choice Movie Awards. The Dior darling usually takes this awards show off wearing the French couture houses creations. I am hoping, even though she is not confirmed to attend any of the major awards shows, that that trend continues. I would love to see JLaw wear this stunning black and white Prabal Gurung Spring 2015 RTW gown that features a racerback overlay with a high round neck that splits at the back over an embellished turquoise strapless bustier gown with sheer floor length skirt.I think that this is the type of look that Jen needs to wear on the red carpet, chic and elegant yet very sporty all at the same time, not overly fussy Dior couture. Finish this look with a pair of black sandals and some simple diamond drop earrings and Jennifer is set to rock the Critics Choice red carpet.

I will be live tweeting the Golden Globe Awards tonight. If you want to join the conversation I will be joining Kelly from Dream In Lace with a live Twitter commentary on what all the stars are wearing. So please join me (@FutureStylist93) and Kelly (@DreamInLace) at about 5 PM EST for all kinds of fashion ID's and LOTS of snarky commentary. We are also planning to take the commentary to the Critics as well on Thursday night starting at 9 PM EST. We hope that you will join in the festivities! Champagne at the ready!

2015 Peoples Choice Awards Wish List Part 1

Cameron Diaz is nominated for Favorite Comedic Movie Actress at the 2015 Peoples Choice Awards which will take place at the Nokia Theater on January 7, 2015. I have never really been a fan of Cameron as I feel that the 42 year old actress is stuck in a style rut. I do not see her breaking away from this anytime soon so I picked this black Saint Laurent Spring 2015 RTW long sleeved mini which features a gathered detail on one shoulder and a bronzed belt, which is exactly something that would be in her wheelhouse right now. They say you can not teach an old dog new tricks. Finish the look with a red lip and a pair of black Christian Louboutin pumps and you have another stereotypical Cameron Diaz look or the People Choice Awards.
Now that I have passed Cameron I have to say I am less cynical about the rest of the ladies on this list. Chloe Grace Moretz is nominated for Favorite Dramatic Movie Actress and I can not wait to see what the 17 year old actress will wear on the red carpet. This Valentino Spring 2015 RTW candy colored striped shift cocktail dress would be a perfect red carpet look for Chloe. The actress loves to have some fun with her dressing and this is an event where she is able to be cute and have fun. A pair of gold sandals, a pink clutch, and a pink lip would finish this look off perfectly for Chloe.
I am praying that we will see a lot of Emma Stone on the red carpets in the upcoming year. I am hoping that her red carpet campaign will begin at the Peoples Choice Awards next Wednesday where she is nominated for Favorite Dramatic Movie Actress, Favorite Movie Duo, and Favorite Movie Actress. The PCA's are not really an event that comes to mind when I think of couture, but I think that this Armani Prive Fall 2014 Couture red embellished bustier and black silk short ensemble is a perfect look for Emma to wear for this occasion. She would be wearing couture without looking overdressed. A pair of black Christian Louboutin Sandals and a red satin box clutch would finish this look off in an effortless way to ensure that Emma looks amazing and event appropriate.
Favorite Actress in a New TV Series (Gotham) nominee Jada Pinkett Smith is one that I always look forward to seeing on the red carpet. The 43 year old actress defies aging always looking sexy and full of youth. I am excited to see what she will bring to the red carpet come the Peoples Choice Awards next week. I think that this white Versus Versace Spring 2015 RTW tuxedo inspired cocktail dress designed by Anthony Vaccarello which features a black print on one half is the perfect option for Jada to show her sexy side which goes with her "Gotham" character Fish Mooney. I would keep the runways accessories and add a gold clutch to ensure that Jada gives us sexy to the n-th degree.

Jennifer Lawrence falters between a total wow and leading the worst dressed list. I am hoping that at the 2015 Peoples Choice Awards next week that the actress, nominated for Favorite Movie Actress and Favorite Action Movie Actress, will be a WOW. During her "Mockingjay" promo tour some of my favorite non-Dior looks that JLaw showed off were from Mugler designed by David Koma so it was really a no brainier that when I saw this Mugler Spring 2015 RTW ensemble that it would be perfect for JLaw at the PCA's. The ensemble consists of an off-white draped satin blouse and a metallic silver mini skirt. I think that this sporty, modern, and sexy ensemble is exactly what Jennifer needs to get her 2015 off to the right start, we all remember the Dior "Little Mermaid" inspired bed sheet that she started the year off with at the Globes this year and things did not get that much better. Finish the look off with a pair of statement Christian Louboutin sandals, a red lip, and a wavy bob and Jennifer will for sure get that perfect red carpet ensemble.

2014 Cannes Film Festival: 'Saint Laurent' Premiere Wish List

Lea Seydoux will be in Cannes this year to premiere her Yves Saint Laurent biopic 'Saint Laurent' in competition on May 17th. As a face of Prada and Miu Miu there has only been one look not from the brand worn by Lea on the red carpet. I am hoping though that Lea will wear Saint Laurent for this premiere. I saw this stunning red Saint Laurent Fall 2014 RTW sequin cocktail dress and thought how it would make the perfect gown for a Cannes premiere if lengthened into a circle skirt. This would be the perfect mix of the classic and modern Saint Laurent brand and a bold statement for the Cannes red carpet instead of classic. A sleek up-do, red lips, no clutch, simple Saint Laurent 'Janis' sandals in black, and simple sleek diamond jewels would make this look 1,000% perfect for Cannes.
In total opposite of what I want to see Lea wear on this red carpet is the golden Alexis Mabille Spring 2014 Couture goddess draped gown that I want to see Jeon Do-Yeon. I figure that Jeon will end up being my stand out star on the 2014 Cannes Film Festival jury and I really hope that I am right. I know I have said it before but coming off stars like Kate Beckinsale, Diane Kruger, and Uma Thurman, I am weary of this years red carpets. Those three ladies all gave me looks that I put on my Best Dressed of the Year list and the likes of Nicole Kidman came very close. Well enough rant back to the clothes! I think that this golden gown would be would be pretty on Jeon with its classic silhouette and simple embellishments. A gold clutch, gold sandals, and simple jewels would all compliment this gown perfectly for this red carpet.

2014 Peoples Choice Awards Wish List Part 1

Amy Adams is nominated for Favorite Dramatic Movie actress at the 2014 Peoples Choice Awards. The very first awards show of the year slated for January 8th, we then go into several back to back to back. The PCA Awards are a much more casual awards show than say the Golden Globes, Screen Actors Guild, or Critics Choice Awards; a nice night for all types of members of Hollywood to let their hair down and be honored by their fans. For this event I would love to see Amy wear this amazing Roksanda Illincic Spring 2014 RTW one shoulder cocktail dress that has every single bold color I love to see her in orange, yellow, purple, and white; all color blocked into a stunning ensemble. Finish the look with a purple Rauwolf clutch and a pair of gold Jimmy Choo strappy sandals. Hair styled into glamorous Veronica Lake waves over one shoulder and simple neutral make-up would just be the icing on top of this absolutely amazing ensemble.
Demi Lovato is nominated for 4 Peoples Choice Awards, including Favorite Music Fan Following, Favorite Female Artist, Favorite Pop Artist, and Favorite Music Video (for Heart Attack) and I am hoping that she will bring it to the red carpet. Back in 2012 Demi really went above and beyond what is expected of a PCA red carpet look in a stunning peach Marchesa gown but I am hoping that this year she will go for something a little more event appropriate. This Saint Laurent Spring 2014 RTW ensemble, that includes a green mini dress and a gold sequin slouchy bolero, is an absolutely amazing look that is perfect for Demi at the Peoples Choice Awards. A pair of gold platform pumps, a red lip and tussled curls (in her natural color which is back not that god awful blue she was trying to rock for a while) thrown over one shoulder and she will have a perfect look on her hands.
Emma Stone is nominated for Favorite Dramatic Movie Actress at the 2014 Peoples Choice Awards and I have to say that I am praying that she takes to the red carpet because she has been missing from it for far to long. I think that this ruby red Elie Saab Spring 2014 RTW embellished mini dress would be a perfect look for Emma to wear for this event. This dress is sexy yet young and sophisticated all wrapped into one look. This is why I love Elie Saab, because he can literally dress anyone from someone in her teens to a sophisticated dame in her 70's. Complete the look with a red Edie Parker clutch and a pair of red Christian Louboutin sandals to ensure that I will die in love with this look.
2013 Peoples Choice Award Favorite Comedic Movie Actress nominee Emma Watson has been all over in how I think she looks on the red carpet in the past year and I am hoping that at this event that she will redeem herself. This black and silver Narciso Rodriguez Spring 2014 RTW mini dress would be a great look for Emma. This modern take on an LBD is a exactly the look that I want to see take to the Peoples Choice Awards red carpet. With a pair of black strappy sandals and a black embellished clutch and Emma will give me an amazing red carpet ensemble.

2013 American Music Awards: Alicia Keys & Arianna Grande Wish List

Alicia Keys has had a pretty good year on the red carpet and I am hoping that she ends it with yet another glam look on the red carpet. The R&B singer, who is nominated for 1 American Music Award, would look killer stunning in this black liquid sequin Saint Laurent Spring 2014 RTW one shouldered gown. I will admit that I have finally succumbed to liking some of the amazing pieces that came down the Spring 2014 RTW runway. This sleek design paired with a simple black and silver clutch, a pair of black Saint Laurent sandals, and simple diamond will make sure that Alicia looks sleek and sexy as she attends the 2013 American Music Awards.
Ariana Grande looks like she is 15 but in actuality she is 20 years old, I'm actually exactly 2 months older than her, but I also look 8 years older than here. But enough about me. Ariana is nominated for New Artist of the Year at the 2013 American Music Awards. I am sure that we will see her take to the red carpet in a cutesy vintage inspired look. This cornflower blue Romona Kevesa Spring 2014 RTW strapless a-line dress is perfect for Ariana as it is sweet without being too over the top Hollywood glam for a music awards ceremony. Finish the look with the runway belt, a gold clutch, and a pair of gold pumps and Ariana will have the perfect look for the AMA's
