Red Carpet Fashion Awards

After wowing on the red carpet at the premiere for ‘The Apparition’ in LA, Ashley Greene continued to promote her latest movie with a guest appearance on ‘Good Afternoon America’ in New York City.
The actress selected a very cute J. Mendel Resort 2013 look.

Ashley donned a high-waist floral-printed pleated skirt with a dark-blue top which she styled with grey suede Louboutin pumps.

Flawless make-up and smooth wavy tresses provided the finishing touches to her chic look.

The shoes are a bit of a snooze; red or blue sandals would’ve been my choice. Do you like Ashley’s heels with this look?

You may remember that Kerry Washington has already worn the lookbook version of this skirt.

Lucy Liu was one of the many stars to attend the CW, CBS And Showtime 2012 Summer TCA Party, held at the Beverly Hills Hotel yesterday evening.

The ‘Elementary’ actress rocked a familiar silhouette wearing a J. Mendel Fall 2012 A-line dress.

Her LBD with sexy cut-out details and a deep plunging V-neck bodice was styled with the same Casadei blade pumps we saw on Sophia Bush earlier – maybe they are replacing the Brian Atwood ‘Maniac’ pumps as the celeb-favourite red-carpet footwear.

Lucy added a pop of colour to her all-black look via her red python Judith Leiber ‘East/West’ clutch which also comes in yellow.

A sleek ponytail, a rose-gold watch, glossy lips and drop earrings completed her look.

Michelle Obama also attended the pre-Olympics reception on Friday for Heads of State and Government, which was host by Queen Elizabeth at Buckingham Palace prior to the opening ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic Games.

For the royal occasion Michelle wore a J. Mendel Resort 2013 ensemble.

The look consisted of a white tailored jacket with overlapped side panels and silver embroidery, which she paired with an ivory pleated skirt.

Michelle will always command my attention over Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge.

FLOTUS isn’t afraid of colour, prints and in this case, she expertly contrasts an architectural top with a soft flowing skirt with great aplomb.

This looks is much more interesting, fashion-forward and stylish than yet another coat dress from the Duchess.

Metallic Manolo’s and stunning earrings completed her look.

Winning “Best TV Actress in a Fantasy/Sci-Fi Series” for ‘The Vampire Diaries’, Nina Dobrev took to the pink carpet at the 2012 Teen Choice Awards in Universal City, California, on Sunday evening.

Nina looked gorgeous wearing a J. Mendel dress.

The silk-faille bustier frock stands out on the carpet thanks to its stunning emerald-green colour and sculptural detail on the skirt.

Gold Jimmy Choo ‘Gana’ booties, a Kotur clutch and silver Coomi jewels accessorize the look.

A sun-kissed glow and sleek locks styled with two thin braids provide the finishing touches.

Anne Hathaway struck a pose with Joseph Gordon-Levitt at the after-party for ‘The Dark Knight Rises premiere at Freemasons Hall in London, England.

Dressed in a brocade J. Mendel dress from the Resort 2013 collection and custom vegan Casadei heels, Hathaway looks every bit the Hollywood icon we know her to be.

While the J. Mendel dress is feminine, its playful, semi-wrap dress silhouette and muted silver colors work well with Anne’s cropped hair. And I love the way her pointy, silver heels don’t detract from the simple beauty of her look.

With no other accessory necessary apart from a good red lip, I think this is a winning look and reflects Hathaway’s approach to red carpet appearances.

 

Do you love Hathaway’s look? Well, thanks to Moda Operandi you can snag Anne’s dress along with other pieces from J. Mendel’s Resort 2013 collection during the J. Mendel trunk show.

Head to ModaOperandi.com now until July 24th to shop the stunning looks from one of our favorite Resort lines, including my personal favourite — a floor length floral stunner with panels and a mermaid-esque finish.

With everything from lace to romantic, Renaissance inspired frocks, J. Mendel knows how to cater to a girl’s style desires.

“Anne Hathaway is the very definition of modern gamine chic in this dress. Just as the simple silhouette is offset by the intricate embroidery, Anne’s cropped hair gives her ethereal beauty a cool nonchalance. She’s perfection!” – Gilles Mendel

Kerry Washington posed for photographers on the red carpet at the discussion panel for ‘Django Unchained’ during Comic-Con 2012 on Saturday in San Diego, California.

The actress teamed an A.L.C. black leather button-down sleeveless shirt with a bold J. Mendel Resort 2013 floral-print high-waisted A-line skirt.

I adore that striking J. Mendel floral print, but the overall styling is quite bad by Kerry’s standards.

The leather top, which looks tight around the bust, was a bad idea as was the purple belt with the gold accent.

I also dislike the clunky footwear. What a difference an orange pair of Jimmy Choo ‘Lance’ sandals, Nicholas Kirkwoods or Christian Louboutin ‘Pigalles’ would have made.

Minimal jewels, a bouffant ponytail with side-swept bangs and a bold red lip colour completed her rather disappointing look.
