Mary J Blige In Marc Bouwer – 2011 Billboard Music Awards

Questions My Love For Leopard Print Award
At the 2011 Billboard Music Awards Mary J Blige made me question my love of leopard print.

I have always been a fan of leopard print, but this dress is screaming to go back into the wild.

I don’t like the solid panels with the print and I really don’t like the high neckline.

Mary can pull of most looks, but this look is overwhelming her from the print, to the neckline to the bold shoulders.

Fergie In Hervé Léger by Max Azria Atelier – 2011 Billboard Music Awards

Not Those Heavy Pumps Again Award
Fergie got fully into the spirit of the dressing for the 2011 Billboard Music Awards.

I love that she always dares to be different.

The singer wore a Hervé Léger by Max Azria Atelier dress which appears to be the love child of two looks from the Spring 2011 and Fall 2011 collections.

The harness with gold tone hardware gives the look an edge, whilst the smoky eyes give her a sultry vibe.

Fergie styled her dress with an Alexander McQueen classic skull fringed leather box clutch, Stephen Webster jewels and black Christian Louboutin Daffodile pumps which are way too heavy for this look.

I’m not quite sold on the lighter hair colour.

Nicole Kidman In Dries van Noten – 2011 Billboard Music Awards

Feel Like Something Is Missing Award
Nicole Kidman seems to have made more red carpet appearances for music events than any other event this year.

She supported her husband Keith Urban at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas last night looking very statuesque wearing a Dries van Noten Fall 2011 dress.

Her long black embellished dress with a sheer skirt and shorter sleeves was styled with hooped earrings and a side sweeping messy plait.

I like that Nicole appears more comfortable at these events, but something is missing.

I can’t quite put my finger on it. A clutch maybe? But then the effortlessness comes from not being laden with too many things.

Nicole looks gorgeous; like an elegant swan.

Keri Hilson In Rachel Roy – 2011 Billboard Music Awards

Most Improved Award
Based on Keri Hilson’s last red carpet appearance, she was the most improved at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas last night.

The R&B singer wore a chartreuse Rachel Roy dress with sheer bell sleeves.

She opted for a pop of colour via her green belt, with the rest of her accessories in shimmering gold.

We’ve still seen much better from her.

Beyonce Knowles In Lanvin – 2011 Billboard Music Awards

Most Meh/Most Uninspiring Award
With most celebrities I can instantly think of one defining previous red carpet look I’ve loved, but that can’t be said for Beyonce Knowles.

The singer posed backstage after her performance at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas wearing a Lanvin Fall 2011 look.

My immediate thoughts on this look were, “Next.”

I don’t hate the dress, but I’m far from being excited about it.

Taylor Swift In Elie Saab – 2011 Billboard Music Awards

Gorgeous Gown, Wrong Occasion Award
Taylor Swift was luminous with sparkling embellishments on the red carpet at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas last night.

She wore a stunning Elie Saab nude gown with bronze embellishments which she teamed with Lorraine Schwartz jewels.

I love Taylor and as you know I love Elie Saab, but for me this is a case of wrong dress for the occasion.

Like the Grammy’s, the Billboard Awards is the time to cut loose and make some bold choices.

The young singer seems considerably over dressed compared to her peers. I wish she’d taken her cues from Selena Gomez.

This gown would’ve made a bigger impact at Cannes. Taylor and Rachel McAdams should’ve swapped looks.

Was Taylor overdressed; sticking to her tried and tested formula, or did she sparkle like a princess?
