Red Carpet Fashion Awards

Monthly Archives: January 2011

Love.

LOVE, Love, love.

In case you hadn’t noticed I’ve developed a huge girl crush on Leighton Meester over the past couple of months.

She commands my attention on the red carpet by taking ownership of everything she wears. She mixes things up and always looks flawless.

Last night she attended the LA Premiere of her latest movie, “The Roommate” looking sensational wearing a Michael Kors long dress from the Pre-Fall 2011 collection.

Her black chiffon jersey dress with a leather cut out bodice looks super hot on Leighton without being overtly sexy.

She’s working it way better than the model.

With her super sleek straight ombre hair and Brian Atwood ‘Helena’ pumps, Leighton opted to go sans jewelry.

Victoria Beckham has often been quoted as saying she’d loved to dress Michelle Obama, so it’s ironic to see them both wearing the same Marc Jacobs Fall 2010 tweed grey pencil dress.

Victoria wore this dress last year when she took to her runway at LAX debuting two taupe bags from her Spring 2011 collection.

VB added her favourite nude Brian Atwood and self designed shades to complete her look.

The First Lady wore the same dress when she arrived at the Wal-Mart announcement of a comprehensive effort to provide healthier and more affordable food choices to their customers in Washington, D.C. last week.

Whilst I love that Mrs O is wearing Marc Jacobs straight off the runway for a second time, I don’t love the brown boots with this look so VB wins for me.

This week’s BDOTW was the hardest ever.

Many of us had 3 or 4 winners, but in the end the First Lady won your vote.

Michelle Obama continues to wow and impress us with her style choices.

She has long been a fan of Alexander McQueen, but no one would’ve dreamed she would wear such a dramatic look.

My first ever blog post on the First Lady featured her wearing a black Alexander McQueen Spring 2008 suit for her Ebony cover, so it’s exciting that she’s become more bolder with her style choices.

It was almost impossible for me to pick one winner, but in the end I had to go with Angelina Jolie.

Her stunning Atelier Versace green goddess dress still gives me chills.

Some of you weren’t that impressed with this look, but after her depressing run promoting “The Tourist” this was a sight for sore eyes.
