Red Carpet Fashion Awards

Monthly Archives: August 2011

Aretha Franklin performed to a packed crowd at the DTE Energy Center in Clarkston, Michigan yesterday.

A legendary diva needed a bold gown to match her commanding performance, and they don’t come much bigger or bolder than Oscar de la Renta.

Despite this being the second time we are seeing this gown worn by a celebrity, it’s the first time the strapless green gown with pink carnation appliqués has been worn with the pink ruched cape.

Fergie looked very chic as she arrived at LAX yesterday.

The ‘Black Eyed Peas’ singer wore a Balenciaga silk floral print shirt from the Fall 2011 collection with caramel leather pants.

The interesting shirt with concealed buttons has a lizard wrapped in vines print which would’ve made her stand out among other travelers wearing tees and comfortable sweatpants.

With her ombre hair thankfully in a cute top-knot, Fergie accessorized with Versace January J sunglasses, gold ringed sandals from her own collection, large gold hoop earrings and a Celine black tote.

I don’t think I’ve ever love a Fergie street style look this much.

I would love to emulate every piece of this look.

Whilst browsing the Mango Fall 2011 Look Book one dress really stood out from all the others.

It was the terracotta floral print dress because it instantly reminded me a similar dress presented by Miu Miu during their Fall 2011 collection.

Mango has clearly been inspired by Miu Miu despite the fact that the material and length are different, plus the Miu Miu dress has sequin embellishments and accentuated shoulders.

Once in store the Mango dress will cost $69.90/€44.95/£42.90.

The Miu Miu dress, which Kate Moss wore on the cover of Vogue UK’s August 2011 edition, is available from Net-A-Porter US for $4,105 and
Net-A-Porter International for £2,480 /€2,860.

Lake Bell was smoldering hot on the red carpet at the LA screening for “A Good Old Fashioned Orgy” last night.

The brunette actress opted to wear a very sexy Cushnie et Ochs Fall 2011 LBD.

Her black stretch moiré dress with elastic boning details and a central split was teamed with a gold crystal cuff, a box clutch and Ferragamo Fall 2011 top-cap pumps.

Shoerazzi rightly predicted that toe-cap pumps would become a red carpet trend.

I love that these heels have the Fall 2011 signature houndstooth prints on the sole.

Lake thankfully wore her hair up, but the style is more ‘just out of the shower’ rather than being red carpet ready.

Are you having a deja vu moment?

That’s because Miss Kelly Rowland wore the same dress almost exactly one month ago.

A soft nude lip colour looks like the only touch of make-up to grace Lake’s flawless skin.

Anna Wintour chose this Marc Jacobs Fall 2011 ensemble to attend the 2011 CFDA Fashion Awards back in June.

The editor-in-chief wore an ivory satin top with a forest green embroidered pencil skirt that has black oversized pockets with beaded details.

Anna didn’t stray too far from the runway look, adding her favourite pair of nude strappy Manolo Blahnik heels and a simple black clutch.

Her signature bob and a slick of pretty pink lipstick completed her look.

Asian singer and actress Kelly Chen wore the same look, although with a black skirt, to attend Marc Jacobs’ Hong Kong Fashion Show last week.

Kelly accessorized with a black and white polka dot Marc Jacobs hat, chic patent leather pointed-toe heels and a burgundy clutch.

She finished her look by wearing her glossy hair down and opted for kohl-rimmed eyes.

My vote is going to Kelly on this one as I adore her accessories, especially her quirky hat and sophisticated shoes. Although I love the forest green version of the skirt on Anna, I much prefer the way Kelly styled the entire look.
