Oscars Red Carpet 2012

My favorites on the Oscars Red Carpet were Milla Jovovich in Elie Saab and Kate Mara in Jack Guisso.
Others that I like were: Jessica Chastain in Alexander McQueen

Rooney Mara in Givenchy -- finally, something not black! It's a refreshing look for her and I really like the contrast of her dark hair.

Leslie Mann in Roberto Cavalli -- she claims this dress was so tight that she couldn't move in it, but I do like the beading on it & the way the dress just drops to the floor

Jennifer Lopez in Zuhair Murad -- who knows why she was at the Oscars, but she looks incredible in this dress

Ellie Kemper in Armani Prive -- At first, this look seemed dull while I watching the Red Carpet. This probably didn't translate well on television, but looking at photos, it looks amazing & I like the glimmer & color.

and Angelina Jolie in Atelier Versace -- she's stunning in pretty much anything but look, she's smiling!
As for worst dressed, I didn't find any look that looked too revolting, though there were some questionable styling choices.

Who were your best & worst picks?

Grammys Red Carpet 2012

Most of you might have watch the Grammy Red Carpet, and there was a lot of lace/embroidery, sequins/sparkle, and sexy cutouts. My favorite of the night was Carrie Underwood in Gomez-Garcia. Absolutely stunning -- she just looks flawless!
My other faves of the night are:
Adele in Giorgio Armani
Corinne Bailey Rae in Christian Siriano
Paris Hilton in Basil Soda
Iffy about Fergie: I really like the bright orange & the silhouette of the dress, but I don't like how it's see through all over & the black undergarments. Black and orange just says Halloween to me.
Katy Perry in Elie Saab. One of my favorite designers, but I don't like the matchy matchy hair.
Worst dressed for me? Nicki Minaj showing up with a Pope -- too reminiscent of Lady Gaga
And Sasha Gradiva -- what is with that gun arm piece?
Who were your fave & least fave looks?

Golden Globes Red Carpet Fashion 2012


It seemed as though mermaids were a big inspiration, with the metallic fabrics & fishtail silhouettes. Nudes/creams and black were also a big hit - there wasn't much color on the carpet, though there were a few pops here & there. My faves of the night were:

Claire Danes in J. Mendel (lately I've been drawn to black & white so her dress caught my eye, and I love the open back)Charlize Theron in Dior (loving the sparkly headband!)
Angelina Jolie in Atelier Versace (she looks magnificent with the red lip)
Nicole Richie in Julien McDonald
Reese Witherspoon in Zac Posen
As for the worst, I didn't really see anyone that was dressed that badly, but some hairstyles were a big no-no (e.g. Zooey Deschanel & her bang/sideburns and Kelly Osbourne's grayish hair dye).

There were a couple of questionable looks -- for me, I'm on the fence with these dresses:

Sarah Michelle Gellar in Monique Lhuillier, which her 2 yr-old daughter picked out by the way!
Lea Michele in Marchesa (the top part just says "ice skater" to me).
All full body red carpet shots are from MTV Style.

So who are your best & worst picks?


P.S. If you haven't seen this sh*t girls say parody (there are a bunch of them out there), you must check out this version for fashion girls! Soooo funny!

Lucky Shops NY 2011 VIP Night

me with actress Kaylee DeFer (you might recognize her from Gossip Girl)

As you know, Lucky Magazine had their annual Lucky Shops event this past weekend (today is the last day, btw!) Dozens of designer collections were up for grabs up to 70% off. I had the most incredible experience being one of the VIP blogger correspondents of the night!

We all met at the Bloom Beauty Lounge to get blowouts & styling for our hair while we mingled & snacked :) I went for some curls - y'know to add some volume from my thin Asian hair lol. Thanks to Jackie's magic, she created a luscious look for me and I absolutely loved how my hair turned out. We also took a bunch of group shots -- when I get my hands on those, I'll repost them on my Twitter or Facebook pages!
I had the wonderful opportunity & luck to be paired up with Rachel Roy (the other bloggers each had a different designer to wear that night). I chose the mulberry sequined Liza dress, paired it with the Kimi black multi heel, and completed my outfit with the multi-wing doorknocker earrings & the cluster statement frontal necklace. I just added my gloves from H&M & oversized clutch from Barney's.

It just so happened that as we walked in through those Lucky Shops doors, Rachel Roy was on the red carpet! I was instantly escorted to take a photo with her :)
After some walking around the venue, with my date Andres, it was time for me to walk the carpet. I have no idea where those pics are going to be posted yet, but here are some that my boyfriend took with my camera.
I didn't do much shopping. Unfortunately, time goes by so fast when you're too busy mingling lol. But I did walk around & of course, I stopped at Geren Ford! The pieces are always functional, accessibly-priced, and modern. The collection was full of cute, versatile, feminine pieces. I mean, how adorable is that blue dress below?
Anyway, here are just some pictures from the night with some amazing people :)

I had such a lovely time & I was certainly in great company. The other VIP bloggers included (not in any particular order): Molly of New York Girl Style, Eileen of Miss Whoever You Are, Lara of Pretty Connected, Christine of My Style Pill, Lisi of The Beauty File, Alicia of Cheetah is the New Black, Nubia of Nubia's Nonsense, Erica & Lauren of Honestly WTF, Lilliana of Cheap Chicas, Melanie of Platinum Blonde Life, Marissa of Style Cusp, and Makeda of Glamazon Diaries.

Stay tuned for another post about the Lucky Shops after party :) More pics will be posted on my Facebook pages (personal & blog page)!
