Friday Fav!

Ok, at the count of three, let’s all celebrate that I managed to post more than once in the week… ready… 1……2…..3…. YAY! This is a minor accomplishment but it feels like winning the gold in the Olympics. I’m that excited about it… haha Okay. Let’s get down to business shall we? Here are my favorite looks from the week;

Ashley Greene … she is a class act, is she not? She has such great hair it makes me sad that she has to have it in that stupid pixie cut for the Twilight movies. But those are almost over for her, thank god. Let’s hope her next big role lets her rock her locks like this! Anywho. I am seriously loving this whole ensemble. It’s very understated yet very classy. The neutral hues from neck to toes are fabulously pulled together with her gold jewelry, bag, and matching makeup. She doesn’t go overboard, which we all know I’m a big fan of. Less is more!

 

Next up… let’s talk about Rachel Weiz. I kind of have one of those girl crushes on her. She always looks like such a lady, and a well dressed one at that! She never looks frumpy to me and she rarely makes poor decisions when it comes to her wardrobe. I adore this dress, especially the upper half. I love the little peekaboo of different fabric. The shoes and the red lips pull the look together completely and she looks absolutely flawless, to me anyway!

What do you guys think? Hits, or misses? Fill me in! And until next time, kisses!

Wednesday Worst!

It pains me to post this one… but I see just no other option this week. Out of all the looks I’ve seen, this is by far the worst. womp womp.

Amy Poehler

I want to not hate this so much… but I can’t. It’s entirely wrong in just every way. I want to say that maybe if it were a pant suit it wouldn’t be so bad, but I think even that wouldn’t save this look. Actually, it’s entirely possible it would make it worse. First of all, the look on her face, she looks like the Joker secretly plotting against Bat Man, but her hair looks fabulous, so that’s good. The high neckline and buttoned up blazer paired with shorts featuring some pasty legs? I just don’t like it Amy! Why not layer a coat of self tanner on those gams before sporting this look? Wouldn’t kill ya! I’m sorry Amy… I love ya, but this is a miss for me. :[

Friday Fav!

Morning, kids! How are we all doing today? It’s another great day here on the East Coast and I couldn’t be happier! I got to lay out yesterday and I plan on spending all day in the sun today as well. Finally getting some normal, natural color on my skin. Feels splendid! I was torn between two favorites this week, so I’m going to post both of them. Check it out.

First up, Miranda Kerr at the In Style awards. How beautiful does she look?? I wish I had a back view of this dress because I bet it’s amazing.

I love the color of the dress and the cut. I am all for plunging neck lines! I know they can be somewhat on the wild side, but if you can pull it off, then by all means, DO! It’s a great look, in my book. She has simple Jimmy Choo’s on, simple but quite elegant jewelry. She is even dabbling a little bit in the dark lip look that’s pretty in right now without looking all goth. It’s more on the red side, but you can tell she’s trying to go there, haha. Although, I mean, let’s be serious, you can put a potato sack on this girl and she could somehow make it walk down a runway like a couture gown, couldn’t she? I think she’s just adorable, and she looks fabulous here without going overtly sexy. I dig this look lots.

And for my next look… one of my personal style favorites in the world of Hollywood fashion…

Naomi Watts! I’m going to come right out and say it now.. I have a girl crush on this woman. Her and Diane Kruger. I feel like they both always look so polished and put together, totally ready for the cameras. Sure, they may have some fashion slip ups every now and then, who doesn’t? We all fall victim to some hideous trends sometimes (hello harem pants!) but this woman holds it down. The first thing I noticed about this dress was the color. I love the dark and dramatic jewel tone. That Stella McCartney really knows her ish. I never see anyone wearing a piece of hers looking anything less than fabulous. I love how the combination of her accessories and subtle makeup give this look a relaxed yet classy feel. And she is also wearing Jimmy Choo’s on her feets… love!

So that’s that, lovelies, these are my two favorites this week. What do you think? Did I miss anyone? Let me know. And as always, have a great day and a fabulous weekend! I have lots of things to do this weekend so I won’t be posting again until Monday. Foo Fighters concert… graduation party… mom’s birthday. Busy busy! So until Monday, kisses!

The Best and worst of the 2012 Golden Globes

I’m no fashion critic, and based on the conversations I’ve been having with people around the office today, my opinions are wildly varying from others. But, I must share them either way. I look forward to award shows all year round as I literally get giddy when I see everyone all dressed up to perfection. So let’s kick it off shall we? Let’s start with my personal favorite of the night… drum roll please…

Now, I basically have the world’s biggest girl crush on Kate Beckinsale. And I mean, who wouldn’t?! Look at her! She is stunning from head to toe while keeping her look simply classic. She’s not over doing it with the accessories and that is a big plus these days. Her skin doesn’t look orange, her hair isn’t too poofed, her makeup is very soft. She just looks amazing to me. She was by far my favorite look of the night.

And now for some honorable mentions: (and some not-so-honorable mentions).

A lot of people didn’t seem to like Salma Hayek’s look or dress, but I thought she looked incredible. She may be channeling the Terminator, but to me she looked hot. Also worth mentioning, Emma Stone, Jessica Alba, and Heidi Klum. Loved their looks!

Unfortunately, and I’m sad to say this… my worst dressed of the night goes to…….

Oh Sarah. Poor…sweet Sarah. I know her daughter picked out the dress, but her baby is like what, one, maybe two years old? Would she really even notice if you opted for something else? This look is terrible. It looks like the designer ruined her dress but at the very last minute and she didn’t have time to pick out anything else. She’s usually so classy and well dressed! I’m sad.

Madonna… we get it, you’re Madonna. You’re quircky. You have “nice arms.” We get it. Now will you please dress your age.

Another one that upset me. Jessica, what happened here? You look like you borrowed Betty White’s wedding dress from the Proposal. That’s enough, give it back now.

This look doesn’t impress me from Natalie Portman. It looks like the designer had way too much fabric left over and didn’t know what else to do with it but pin it at her side. The fit in her midsection is just all wrong for me. I don’t love this.

A big trend I noticed on the red carpet last night, aside from headbands, belts! A lot of actresses had embellished waists. Frieda Pinto also rocked a belt with her dress last night. I’m not 100% certain how I feel about this trend yet, but it doesn’t ruin any of these looks for me, so it must be ok!

So how did I do? Who were your best and worst dressed from the red carpet last night?
