Top 10 Best Dressed - BET Awards 2008!
Monday, 30 June 2008
So last week the 2008 BET Awards were held in L.A., but who were the 10 best dressed celebs in attendance in my opinion?:
At number 10 is plastic rapper Lil' Kim. While her face may be ruined by cosmetic surgery, and her wig is worse than Tyra's, the pencil dress with plunging neckline is actually a pretty sexy fit and the purple colour is on trend.
I like the cute little bow shoes too! Now if only she got a new hairstylist and make-up artist...
Also rocking the purple trend at number 9 was the beautiful Nia Long, in a volumous plum mini dress. I love the draped grecian style, but the excessive volume on the hips isn't all that flattering. The colour however looks amazing on her.
Bringing a touch of glam and bling to the event at number 8 is Ashanti. I suppose she had to make an impact as she is back on the music scene with a new album, and that she did in her black floor-length gown, with thigh high split and sparkly silver chain embellishments.
The Marchesa Fall 2007 dress is a little over the top for me but her black sandals were frigging fantastic! I think a more sublte slit would have improved this look no end.
Alicia Keys is at number 7 because I absolutely love the colour of her strapless pink David Meister dress. The feisty singer teamed the simple dress with black and white Sergio Rossi shoes.

Hip-Hop video vixen's are not usually known for their class, but that's exactly what Angel Lola Luv exuded on the BET Awards Red Carpet last week, landing her at number 6 on my best dressed list.
The curvacious model's body looked stunning in a black dress with fitted bodice and flared skirt with tutu style netting underneath. In any other colour this could look costumey, but in black it looks sophisticated. However, I don't like her drap, flat hair style and the chunky gold necklace is unnecessary.
At number 5 is BET News presenter Danella looking lady like in a beautiful floral black chiffon gown with a plunging halter neck. The dress has the right amount of class and sexiness and the floral print is so fashionable right now.
Bringing some vibrant colour to the occassion at number 4 is the gorgeous Lauren London. Her yellow strapless mini dress looked fashion forward worn with her black Givenchy strappy open toe ankle boots and polka straight long hair.
And so now the top three, at number 3 is Jenece Johnson wearing a salmon pink version of the ever popular Herve Leger dresses with simple silver sandals and silver earrings. Sexy, bright and clean cut. I love it!
At number 2 is Keyshia Cole's stunning performance gown a tie dye chiffon gown with pure white bodice. Her red carpet look was too severe with her cropped hair cute and garish yellow volumous dress, but on stage later on she looked feminine and beautiful with her soft curls and glamorous gown.
The colour combination was beautiful showing that tie dye can be sophisticated and doesn't have to mean hippy!
And finally at number 1 is..................Rihanna! The queen of the red carpet strikes again in an attention grabbing, lemon Giambattista Valli Spring 2008 tiered gown.
The fitted bodice was delicate with its spaghetti straps, subtle frills and deep v-neck while the full-length, tiered skirt was perfect for twirling around the red carpet, as Rihanna did!
The thing that makes this whole look for me was her simple but stunning silver heart pendant, and her short cropped hair do allowed for the dress to take centre stage.
When is someone else gonna step up and take Rihanna's red carpet crown from her??

Wednesday, 4 June 2008
It was all about what the men like at Spike TV's 2008 Guys Choice Awards last Friday, so of course the women showed up in their sexiest little dresses! Here are my 5 best dressed:
At number 5, a little controversial but I'm going for Tila Tequila. So the overall look isn't perfect, and she certainly needs to get rid of those extensions, but the lemon and green colour block dress is actually really nice. And she gets points for making such an improvement in her style!
I don't know what the zebra print clutch is about though...
At 4 is Cameron Diaz who received the award for Decade of Hotness. Has it really been that long since she hit the Hollywood circuit?!
She still looks great though and matched her California girl blonde hair and tan with a little orange ruffled dress. I adore her pearlised pointed courts too.
Looking vibrant in bright yellow at number 3 is super hottie Megan Fox. The Transformers star accepted an award for The Next Big Thing. I'm sure most men would agree with that!
Her style's not bad these days either. I love the plunging neckline and drapes chiffon skirt of her yellow Bradley Bayou dress, and love that she matched the look with beige peep toes. I really like mix and matching neutrals with acid tones!
At number 2 is Superbad actress Emma Stone, 19. The young starlet looked very chic in a strapless white pencil dress and fabulous black cross strapped shoes. This is how you do the monochrome look right!
But at number 1, in yet another of the popular Herve Leger designs, was actress and J.Lo spokesmodel Natalie Martinez!
The burgandy and black halter dress, in the signature Herve Leger "fits-like-a-glove" style, looked gorgeous on her especially with her long dark locks in sexy waves. Her black strappy peep toes are adorable as is the cute little bracelet.
Keeping her make-up almost nude stops the look from being vampish.
So guys, what do you think?

Tuesday, 3 June 2008
So the highly anticipated MTV Movie Awards 2008 were held in Los Angeles on Sunday, but who cares about who won the movie awards?! All I care about is who won the best dressed!
At 10 we have Dream Girl Jennifer Hudson, who showed off her voluptuous shape in a sexy, fitted Peter Soronen dress with hot pink platforms and a waist belt. Her time in the SATC movie must have rubbed off on her real life style!
Unfortunately she ruined the look by tackily having her bra hanging out of the dress, otherwise she'd be much higher up my list! I love her chic new bob though!
At 9 is the sultry Megan Fox. Megan wore a pink and grey tu-tu style dress on the red carpet but her choice for the show was much chicer! She chose a white mini dress with gorgeous sparkly silver straps and a detailed open back.
She would have been higher up the list of the dress had been a few inches longer and had she not worn gold shoes. I hate mix and matching metallics!
At 8 is the elegant Anne Hathaway who spiced things up a little from her usual reserved style with a black, leather look, one-shouldered dress by Sophia Kokosalaki. She made the look her own with a sophisticated updo and drop earrings.
Coming in at 7 is one of the only women who didn't wear a dress to the awards, Charlize Theron. The leggy lovely wore skinny cropped black jeans and a cool Proenza Schouler Pre-Fall 2008, silver basque style top, with gladiator style heels by Roger Vivier. Edgy, a bit different and very hot!
In stark contrast at number 6, was Paris Hilton in a very girly prom look. Paris wore a beautiful strapless black and white Betsey Johnson prom dress with lace panels. I love it and I even like her side parted, mid-length hair style.
It's not often I like Paris's style choices so I can only say Benji Madden is having a good affect on her!
At number 5 is another girl whose style I usually hate.......Lindsay Lohan! While I do think her purple Dolce and Gabbana mini dress was a tad too short, it was really cute! And the black waist belt and black peep toes were the perfect, simple accessories.
Making a huge impact at number 4 with her brand new hair cut was The Hills' very own Audrina Patridge! She looks great either way but the fringe is a nice new change and is part of the reason she's so high on my list.
The other reason is figure-hugging, navy blue, v-neck Lloyd Klein dress which looked very sexy teamed with her silver peep toes.
So to the top 3 best fashion looks of the night! At 3 is the newly single Liv Tyler who used bold colour beautifully with a pink, strapless Lanvin dress with a gathered hem and tied waist. She contrasted the pretty look and her cute waves with leopard print Christian Louboutin pumps.
The single life certainly loks good on her!
Just missing out on the top spot, but looking very stylish at number 2, is Katherine McPhee. She wore a very on-trend, colour block, Herve Leger dress.
Herve Leger dresses are known for making hot young starlets look super sexy but Katherine proved that it can also look fashionable and classy. Plus I love her shoes and volumous waves!
So who made it to the top of my list?? Drum roll please............
At number 1 is The Hills leading lady Lauren Conrad! And to make the victory even more great for her, the starlet was wearing a dress from her very own fashion line, The Lauren Conrad Collection!
The silky blue one-shouldered dress hugged her body in all the right places looking very grown-up and glamorous and was knee-length which added that touch of class that I love.
She got all the little details right too! Classic black peep toes, sexy red nail polish, long centre-parted waves and minimal jewellery. I think she looked stunning!
But what do you think of all the ladies and their fashion choices??

Sunday, 1 June 2008
Mens mag Maxim recently held their 2008 Hot 100 Party in L.A. which was attended by some of the hottest female celebs of the moment.
My favourite dressed blondes of the night all opted for simple, classic black.
Russian model and actress Anya Monzikova (left) wore a strapless, black lace mini dress with a sweetheart neckline. She teamed it with short Marilyn Monroe curls and red lipstick and nail polish for a va va voom look!
Also in a strapless mini dress was comedienne Amanda Bynes (right) who wore a gorgeous bubble hemmed dress with lace panels. She teamed the look with beige, strappy sandals and soft golden curls.
Finally was That 70s Show star Laura Prepon (middle), who looked sophisticated in a strapless black all-in-one with a patent waist belt. Nice!
So that was the blondes, but the brunettes seemed to be quite a bit more daring with colour!
The Hills hottie Audrina Patridge (left) didn't seem bothered that Lauren dropped her for Lo when she showed up looking stunning in a yellow Herve Leger mini dress. As is typical of all the Herve Leger creations, it was very fitted and left little to the imagination!
Christina Milian (middle) probably had the other girls green with envy in her one shouldered, skin tight green dress. The matching green hoops and multicoloured peep toes ruined the look though and left her looking like an 80s cast off. Unfortunate because the dress actually looks pretty good on her!
And finally for the brunettes we have actress Olivia Munn (right) who wore a floral, white, off-the-shoulder dress with a cute red belt tied around the waist. The look was very summery and pretty, especially with her tan and long, loose hair.
Who do you think won the fashion battle then?? The blondes or the brunettes?!

Monday, 7 April 2008
American Idol wants to remind you all that it is not just a hugely successful reality TV show produced (and presented) by super-rich men in suits whose pockets it is happily lining....they also do some good in the world, and no not just because it gave us Kelly Clarkson!
Idol Gives Back is a foundation which helps children and young people in poverty in the USA and around the world through various means.
The Idol Gives Back 2008 show was filmed yesterday in L.A. and loads of stars turned up, performed, and presented. Some looked casual, some looked glam, some looked good, some looked not so good.
Miley Cyrus (left) performed at the show and she looked good in casual skinny jeans and a cute sequined, layered, camisole. She looked young and fun but I'm not fussed on the boots.
Also looking good was Teri Hatcher in a tailored black blazer, long white top and jeans. Wonder if her and Ryan shared any awkward moments?!
Looking not-so-good in their casual outfits were Fergie (left), who was shocking in shiny leather leggings, and Mariah Carey who was boring and cheap looking in a black vest and gold chain belt.
Some stars dressed up a bit more though, like Geri Halliwell who debuted new boyfriend, dancer Ivan FlipZ Velez, at the event. She wore the blue-grey version of a Herve Leger dress once worn by Rihanna in pink. She looked hot and her figure is amazing these days! In shape, but not too skinny as she has been in the past.
Reese Witherspoon presented at the event and looked demure and pretty in a simple LBD. All the details were on trend though: a waist belt, sheer top section and ruffles. Her bold red peep toes set of the whole look!
Looking not so good all glammed up was Idol judge Paula Abdul. The sweetheart neckline, red dress is actually pretty sexy, but poor Paula just always looks a mess! I don't know how she does it......but I think the secret's in the 80s bouffant hair.
I love the style of Carrie Underwood's off the shoulder Farah Angsana gown, but it seems a little OTT for this event, considering most people were in jeans! Plus I hate the iridescent colour orange/pink colour!
As a side note, Carrie was asked about rumoured boyfriend Chase Crawford and she said that they had broken up a couple of months ago via text because it just wasn't working so it's weird that it's all coming out in the press now. She said it was mutual. Hmm. Dumping via text, how classy!

Monday, 11 February 2008
Cassie showed up for the Sean John Fall 2008 Fashion Show at Cipriani's in NYC on Friday looked super sexy in a strapless yellow Herve Leger dress.
Trying to catch someone's eye Cassie?
Maybe her rumoured beau, the man himself, Sean John aka P. Diddy?
Who knows, but she looked great! I luuuuurve Herve Leger dresses!

Sunday, 10 February 2008
L-R: Kelis, Natasha Bedingfield, Taylor Swift and Leighton Meester
So many celebrities showed up for the Verizon Wireless and People Magazine Party in Hollywood on Friday and many looked great in bold colours and prints.
Kelis looked hot in an 80s inspired pink polka dot skirt and sexy black bandeau top - an outfit you need plenty of confidence and a unique sense of personal style to pull offf!
Leighton Meester also opted for prints in her adorable leopard print dress with a tied neckline and red piping, which was matched with her red sandals.
Natasha Bedingfield redeemed herself in my eyes after her recent fashion mishap, in a black and green colour block dress with a sexy halter neck.
And finally 18 year old country singing sensation Taylor Swift looked sweet in a bold purple bubble hem dress teamed with sparkly silver strappies and gorgeous side swept curls.
L-R: Kim Kardashian, Christina Milian, Miley Cyrus and Fergie
Also worth a mention for looking half way decent are; Kim Kardashian in a fitted cream Herve Leger dress, Christina Milian in a long black bandeau dress with a revealing cut-out section, Miley Cyrus who looked cute and more age-appropriate than usual in a floaty red and cream sequined dress and finally Fergie who bucked the dress trend and instead opted for a sexy pinstriped suit with slick centre-parted pony tail.

Links to this post Email this postNew York Fashion Week: Herve Leger Fall 2008
Wednesday, 6 February 2008
If you want a sexy dress, all the celebs know you have to wear Herve Leger! The famously form fitting dresses were worn by (from left to right) Amy Smart, Rose McGowan, Melissa George, Sophia Bush and Christina Milian to the Herve Leger by Max Azria Fall 2008 Show at New York Fashion Week.
My fav Herve Leger worn by the celebs had to be either Amy Smart's for the bold colour or Sophia Bush' for the traditional Herve Leger stripes and the way she accessorised it.
The Fall 2008 collection had the traditional stripes theme in autumnal tones and striking black and white.
There were some very daring and unusual designs, not for the faint hearted!
Soft neutral colours like peach, baby pink, cream and brown were used in many dresses which is a big Fall 2008 trend.
Some of my absolute favourite's were the clasic black dresses from the v-neck mini to the stunning knee-length dresses with ruffled skirts.
And then were the gowns. With the traditional Herve Leger fitted bodice that all the dresses have but with loose flattering skirts.
My favourites were the white gown with plunging neck line and the black one-shoulder gown with flower detail.
For those wondering how to wear your hair in the fall, the models in the Herve Leger collection wore their hair straight and dramatically side-parted like at most of the other Fall 2008 collections.

Links to this post Email this postPretty Girls and Bimbos at the Cloverfield Premiere
Monday, 21 January 2008
The Premiere of the secretive monster movie Cloverfield was held in L.A. last Wednesday and it seems that keeping the plot underwraps for so long hasn't dampened the interest of movie goers or celebs in the film, as it has exceeded box office expectations over it's opening weekend and many young It girls attended the premiere!
Quirky young actress Michelle Trachtenberg struck a fierce pose wearing a high-waisted black and white structured skirt with a black waist belt, a black vest and black opaque tights.
The Hills good girl Lauren Conrad brought some colour to the event in a multi-coloured chiffon Jenny Packman dress. I love the fun flirty look and her simple updo.
Tania Ramonde also looked gorgeous in a classic LBD and black courts. She made the look edgy with a trendy leather jacket, big curly hair and sexy red lips.
L-R: Lindsay Lohan and Heidi Montag
Unfortunately not all famous young stars are gorgeous classy role-models!
Desperados Lindsay Lohan and Heidi Montag couldn't resist making spectacles of themselves at the event with their fake blonde extensions and attention seeking dresses.
Lindsay left little to the imagination in a black skin-tight Herve Leger mini dress whilst Heidi wore a cheap looking bold red dress.
Both girls look like plastic, blonde clones - so boring!!

Links to this post Email this postMore New Years Style From Ashlee, Eve and Christina
Wednesday, 2 January 2008
Ashlee Simpson and boyfriend Pete Wentz hosted a New Years Eve Bash at The Shore Club which was attended by fellow stylish celebs Eve and Christina Milian.
Ashlee looked chic in a black and silver mini dress and studded black sandals. I'm not sure what's going on with Pete's stripey beanie hat and braces though, and I'm pretty sure Ash and Pete have the same eyeshadow on!
Eve looked a little boring in her sequined bronze mini dress. I feel like I've seen this look a million times before but maybe it's just Eve's tattoos that make everything she wears look the same!
Finally, Christina Milian, who attended with boyfriend Dre, looked super sexy in a blue fitted Herve Leger dress worn with a studded black cuff bracelet.
Ashlee's subtly sexy look still wins it for me though.

Friday, 19 October 2007
Girls Aloud had a purple theme going on at the Launch of the Samsung F210 Purple Phone on Wednesday, maybe it was a bit of an overload with all the different shades?!? So now that purple is officially the colour of the moment you can even match your phone to your autumn wardrobe!
Confident Cheryl was the only girl not wearing all over purple, and instead looked futuristic in a a skin tight navy Herve Leger dress and a hint of purple in the shape of her peep toe shoes. She looked very Cleopatra with a heavy fringe and blunt hair cut and cat like eye make-up.
Quirky Nicola showcased her own individual style in a loose chiffon purple dress with black gothic inspired detailing and blakc opaque tights. Like Cheryl, she had a thick heavy fringe and made her eyes the focus with lots of dark liner.
Down-to-earth Kimberley showed off her shapely figure in a purple satin cowl neck dress with a purple waist belt (I think it's from Topshop or if not they have an identical one!!). Instead of a blunt hair look, Kimberly opted for soft gentle curls and warm subtle make-up!
Glamorous Nadine looked a little cheap in her satin purple halter neck dress. She needs to stop trying so hard to stand out cos she's gorgeous!! Her Hollywood tan and bleached blonde, volumous hair looked fab, but sometimes less is more!
Finally, daring Sarah covered up in possibly the cutest dress of all - a purply-pink, high necked, chiffon number, with a black waist belt, black peep toe shoes and the most adorable black heart shaped earrings. Her hair was cut even shorter and more androgynous than usual in this cute pixie cut and except for her black smokey eyes, her make-up was pale and muted.
For more pics of all the girls
So which Girls Aloud-er rocked the purple look the bets in your opinion??

Wednesday, 27 June 2007
Here are all my favourite looks from last night's BET Awards:
Selita Ebanks was there with Nick Cannon rocking the glamorous short curls look and a beautiful lace, black dress, with cut out detail at the back. But this girl could wear anything and look amazing.

Also sporting old school hollywood glamour hair was Rihanna who looked stunning in her fitted white bandeau dress, a vintage Herve Leger number, (and she's wearing that gun necklace again!!) and nude court shoes. This was my stand out look of the night.

I'm not sure who Lauren London is, but she was there and looked so pretty in this silky salmon dress, the second I've seen in two days. But this one is more girly and sweet. Love the shoes also.
American Idol winner Jordin Sparks attended in a cute beige smock. Not exactly glamorous but I love it!
Miss Eva the Diva Pigford was there trying to get noticed in this beautiful rainbow coloured maxi dress and wild hair. I don't know if this look is completely appropraite for the BET Awards but it's funky nonetheless and would look great at the beach.

Finally, I loved Ms Angie Stone's casual, but sparkly look. This outfit is very well put together with just the right amount of glamour and I think she looks beautiful

For more pics and to see who else attended click here: http://concreteloop.com/2007/06/2007-bet-awards-the-red-carpet#more-14175 and also check out http://www.bossip.com/
For the record, I didnt like any of the Destiny's Child girls dresses, or Solange's, she was trying way too hard to be sexy as she often does. Ciara's dress looked nice from the back but a mess from the front, Ashanti looked like she was going to prom, and Eve, well what can I say, just take a look for yourself!
