Brandy was one of the guest performers on Dick Clark’s Rockin’ New Year’s Eve special on Monday night, which I’m guessing was pre-recorded as she was spotted on the red carpet in Las Vegas on the same night.

On this occasion she sported long tresses while wearing an Esteban Cortazar Resort 2013 look.

This is the second look she’s worn from the Colombian designer’s collection, which can also boast Solange Knowles as a huge fan.

Dressed in an LWD with a dramatic funnel collar and daring asymmetrical cut-outs at the back, she styled her one-sleeved frock with Tom Ford over-the-knee anaconda stiletto boots, which have also been spotted on Rihanna and Miley Cyrus.

Do you like the edgier looks Brandy has been serving up lately, or do you think she’s trying way too hard?

Brandy was just one of the ladies to take to the red carpet at the ‘VH1 Divas’ 2012 event held at the Shrine Auditorium yesterday evening in California.

The singer/actress selected a look from the Esteban Cortazar Resort 2013 collection, which so far has only been worn by Solange Knowles.

Her flirty asymmetrical ensemble with futuristic cuts was styled with metal-ankle-cuff leather sandals from the same collection and a selection of gold jewels.

While the skirt of the dress is particularly fussy, I think Brandy does a good job of making this work for her by not trying too hard and going easy on the accessories, allowing the dress to speak for itself.
