53rd Annual Grammy Awards: Willow Smith

Willow Smith, 53rd Annual Grammy Awards Red Carpet

Willow I think you are THE CUTEST!!! But darling you cannot--and are not--the "Mini-Me Godchild" of Lady Gaga and Nicki Minaj. Someone needs a Red Carpet Style Intervention. I'm not saying she needs to be wearing outfits from Gymboree or Hot Topic or whatever girls her age (ten!!) are wearing these days. But...looking like the cover of a Halloween Costume from a Bag...surely cannot be good. If my niece ever wore this, Uncle Nick might need to have a serious discussion with her!

What do you guys think? Please let me know!

53rd Annual Grammy Awards: Who Wore What? Ciara in Emilio Pucci Spring 2011

Ciara in Emilio Pucci Spring 2011, 53rd Annual Grammy Awards Red Carpet

Ciara wore a VERY revealing printed chiffon gown from Emilio Pucci Spring 2011 by designer Peter Dundas. Yes, it's the Grammys and you can take your Red Carpet Style to a whole other level--but that doesn't mean you take it to the "Miss Trinidad & Tobago/Miss Universe Evening Gown Competition" level! It's A LOT of gown! From the extra long train to the slit (both of which were not in the original runway sample as seen above). I'm also not sure if she needed to then add those black "gladiator" pumps. But then again, if you've gone THAT far (with that dress) then why not?

Is it a "Yes" on Ciara's Look? Or "Not So Much"? Let me know...

53rd Annual Grammy Awards: Lady Gaga Arrives...in an Egg..and the rest of her Grammys Outfits!


The Egg, Dale Bozzio 2.0 and THOSE Platform boots!!!

Lady Gaga...inside the egg...with her Combat boot-and-Lucite-heeled entourage, 53rd Annual Grammy Awards Red Carpet

Oh Lady Gaga...Only Miss Gaga would make such an entrance. Her entrance at the 2011 Grammy awards came via an Egg--and an entourage who carried her, in that aforementioned egg. I don't really understand why her Male "Egg-Carrying" boys are dressed like Go-Go Dancers from a really off-the-beaten path Gay Bar--gold Lycra shorts and Combat Boots from an Army Supply Store (?). And the woman above with her clear Lucite Heel Stripper Platforms ain't helpin', if you know what I mean. With that Style Hapless crew of an entourage, I sure hope what's in the egg looks AMAZING! Ahead of this Egg-Carrying entourage were photographer Terry Richardson snapping away as well as her stylist, Mugler Designer Nicola Formichetti.

Here's what she wore Onstage:

Onstage, Lady gaga, ended up in an pointy-shouldered stretch cropped top and skirt similar to her "egg-Carrying" entourage. Her make-up and hair were very reminiscent of Dale Bozzio of the 80's band Missing Persons (kiddies look her up 'cause Lady Gaga is!)

And to receive her Grammy Awards for Best Pop Vocal Album, she donned this black ensemble:

Look at the platform heel in them boots??? Lady Gaga never met a Platform she did not like!

Which Lady Gaga Did You Like Best? A) Lady gaga in the Egg B) Lady Gaga as Dale Bozzio 2.0 in gold cropped top and skirt C) Lady gaga in black ensemble and black UBER platform boots

53rd Annual Grammy Awards: Adam Levine of Maroon 5

Adam Levine of Maroon 5: 53rd Annual Grammy Awards Red Carpet

Male Style Red Carpet Trend Alert: Drop Crotch Pants!

Adam Levine is such a CUTIE!!!! One time, on a flight from NYC to LA, I sat very near him (we were in Business Class and Fergie was in First! Yes, it was a very "Hollywood" flight back!) and I could barely eat, drink or sleep because I was just swooning over how cute he is (do I sound like a 19 year old girl???).

For the 2011 Grammy Awards, Adam decided to do the Drop Crotch pant look, cropped jacket and loose micro-thin t-shirt, and finished it off with high lace-up boots. Listen, on someone else, this would be a MESS. But on Adam, he looks cute, very Hipster-with-Money and like he should be at a Gallery Opening in Tribeca. It also helps that he's got a male model-thin body so he can get away with this.

It's The Grammys after all. The traditional "Red Carpet Rules" do not apply here.

Do we Like Adam in his drop crotch pants, high boots and cropped jacket? Or is it a miss?

53rd Annual Grammy Awards: Who Wore What? Jennifer Hudson in Versace Pre-Fall 2010

Jennifer Hudson in Versace Pre-Fall 2010, 53rd Annual Grammy Awards Red Carpet

Jennifer Hudson looking slim and sexy in a high-low navy-blue/silver Versace Pre-Fall 2010 dress. I'm wondering why the bust doesn't quite fit and why, oh why...is her bra showing. I don't think this is how it is supposed to be. Trust me darlings, ALL those Versace dresses and gowns have built-in bra and under-structures so you DO NOT have to wear additional bras that may distract from the dress. This is why a Versace dress can cost in the THOUSANDS...like $6000 most times. It also looks like they lengthened the front chiffon tiers of this asymmetrical dress for Jennifer. I like the dress, I just have issues with her bra showing. That's a no-no.

On a Positive Note: Jennifer does look TEENY TINY!!!

Do we mind that the top section doesn't fit "the sisters" and that her bra is showing?

53rd Annual Grammy Awards: Nicki Minaj in Givenchy Haute Couture Fall 2007

Nicki Minaj in Givency Haute Couture Fall 2007, 53rd Annual Grammy Awards Red Carpet

You just knew Miss Nicki Minaj was NOT showing up to the 2011 Grammy Awards in SAFE head-to-tow sequined gown...instead, she showed up in an Cheetah animal print "bubble dress", with matching leggings, boots, and "Cotton Candy"-looking hair so big I feel bad for whoever will be seating behind her...they AIN'T going to see a THANG!

From the Runway: Givenchy Haute Couture Fall 2007

The ensemble is from Givenchy Haute Couture Fall 2007 by Designer Riccardo Tisci. Yes, this look is almost four years old--but PLEASE DO NOT call it "Vintage" or I will CUT YOU!!!! I'm sure her stylist went deep--well only four years deep--into the Givenchy Haute Couture Archives--or Style.com Photo Look Boot Site and realized that Cheetah print was SCREAMING "Nicki! Order Me!!!" Also, I'm sure no one ordered it back in the day...so it just sat there lonely and looking for someone as Style Loca as Nicki to come rescue her from Archive Oblivion.


Do we like? Or is she an animal we wanna put back in her cage?

And more important, do we wanna grab a bite from her Cotton Candy-looking hair?

53rd Annual Grammy Awards: Who Wore What? Florence Welch in Givenchy Haute Couture Spring 2011


Florence Welch of Florence and the Machine in Givenchy Couture Spring 2011, 53rd Annual Grammy Awards Red Carpet

I LOVE Florence Welch of Florence and the Machine--Love Love Love!! And I love her even more for choosing this Givenchy Haute Couture Spring 2011 gown by Designer Riccardo Tisci for the 2011 Grammy Awards.

The gown is from Tisci's "Japanese Robot" Collection which he recently unveiled during Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week and features incredible "Winged" applique over silk organza, fabulous Swan designs in the front and a "Shocking Orange" back detail. She, of course, knew to turn around and let the photographers get some shots of that amazing back detail. Smart girl!

I want you, I need you, oh baby, oh baby

This weekend in between writing law essays, revising and generally stressing about my current workload I have been obsessing over the most beautiful bag - the Oversized Mulberry Alexa in Mini Patent Leopard.

I'm not a huge fan of Mulberry, though I appreciate the brand; neither am I partial to Alexa Chung, I find her as dull as any matchstick, but this bag.. oh this bag! Classic, black, leopard, patent, roomy - it may as well be called the Natalya.

I have found one on ebay, but with 2 days to go it's already up to £550... oh the misery of lust! I. Can't. Stop. Dreaming. About. It. Help!

I would wear these shoes 24/7

If I had $1300 laying around...
