Oscars 2010 - The looks at the after parties

Everyone showed up... From some A-Lister missing from the main event to some serious D-Listers ...

Some looks I liked

For once Kate Beckinsale is not wearing a A-line/mermaid dress so I knew I had to feature her!

Some looks I didn't like

Can someone tell me what the hell is she doing here?

Oscars 2010

As usual nobody tried something exciting except Zoe Saldana and Diane Kruger but I feel their effort didn't produce anything breathtaking.

In the case of Zoe Saldana I feel there is too much going on... I don't really like the tie-dye effect on dress, especially on occasions others than going to the beach. Just add the glittery bust and, wow it's just an overall mess.

I don't like the divisions on Diane Kruger's Chanel Couture dress... Plus the ruffles in the middle give an overall look of french cancan, not very appropriate for the Oscars...

My favorite looks

When editorials go wrong - After School for InStyle Korea

 

After School - in Burberry SS2010 - for InStyle March 2010

@allkpop
Overload of cuteness doesn't mean it is going to look good...

It's funny because the models during the fashion shows are, for me, the ones doing the worst job as ambassadors for the clothes.
It may be due to the fact that I'm not seated at the front row and the details don't translate well in the pictures or that the models could as well be replaced by cardboards and we would not see the difference, I don't know....

I usually have to wait till I see the collection on a real person ( ie. with a real body) or in a editorial to appreciate the clothes and see the collection from another perspective.

Unfortunately here, I feel the stylist did a bad job, because after seeing this editorial, I don't feel like seeing more of the collection .

I remember about how I gushed over the collection back in September and how I dreamed about owning the glitter trench after seeing Kate Hudson and Lee Da Hae's editorials ...
Now I kinda wish this editorial would just disappear. It ruined it for me.

Katy Perry @ the Grammys 2010

Katy Perry in Zac Posen

Katy Perry gets her own post to highlight the fact that she really should have chosen a better support for her twins, and a better dress overall... When I think I featured her as someone to look forward to last year... It pains me.

Grammys 2010 - Yawn Yawn Yawn boring.

My parents were browsing through the channels for something to watch when they realized the Grammys were on. They decided to have a quick preview; the Black Eyed Peas were performing at this moment. After less than two minutes, they already had changed the channel to some a show talking about fishermen or what not... Anyway, something really boring.. The fisherman life seemed more interesting to them that the Grammys!

I was somewhat excited about the Grammys because singers have been known to take more fashion risks/ play more with fashion that their actors counterpart... This theory has been proved wrong at the Grammys where everybody showed up in long red carpet dresses. Even Rihanna!
I was saying in the post below that I couldn't wait to see if she would been able to top Lady Gaga in her Armani Prive custom dress and there she is, wearing this long feathery white gown.

 

Rihanna in Elie Saab Couture

It's a gorgeous gown but, don't forget, it's the Grammys we're talking about! Not the Oscars...

Lady Gaga @ The Grammys 2010

Lady Gaga in Armani Prive

I'm not fond of the wig but seriously, she killed it... I don't know how Rihanna will top this.

Always late : The SAG awards 2010 - the fashion recap

You probably already saw all the pictures but I still felt like doing a small recap...
I can start by saying that this redcarpet was way way better fashion wise than the Golden Globes... Even if, once again, no one really blew me away, the average was higher...

Now that I know how to use the read more functionality of blogger, beware!!!

Perfect Perfection

Sandra Bullock and Diane Kruger are my favorites again... I really loved the details on Sandra Bullock's Alexander McQueen's dress and even if mustard is my least favorite color ever you can't deny that Diane Kruger looks amazing in Jason Wu.

 

 

I didn't get a special love vibe either from Kate Hudson or Dianna Agron, but I really loved the design of the dresses and the updos they paired it with... You have to admit it that in the case of Kate Hudson, this is a huge step compared to her horrible Marchesa bridal dress from the Golden Globes.

Emmy Awards 2009

It's been a while since I reviewed an award show. I wanted to do the VMA's but none of the red carpet celebrities impressed me. This event was no exception, but the dresses were really pretty and I found  that those two (Chloe Sevigny and Mila Kunis) standed out, mostly for the originality of the piece.

So should Beyonce have won ?

IMO,yes .
Funny thing , according to the website, she wasn't even nominated haha!
And Kanye , who usually beats on paparazzi in daily life, acting all butt hurt and storming the stage... WTf?!!!

Showdown : Taylor vs. Beyonce

Janet Jackson for Harper's Bazaar October 2009

Janet Jackson is on the cover of Harper's Bazaar for next month according her first interview since the death of her brother.
Congrats to Harper's for getting her story, but anyway , where else could she have gone... To be honest, there are very few good "content" magazines left. Only tabloids and fashion magazines. Which Harper's is part of but.. anyway, let's not disgress.
I find it funny when people "open" their heart in magazine.
What for?
Janet doesn't have any albums/tour/movie to promote.
Funny.
What's more funny is her newstands cover.
Why is she laughing?
A little distasteful to my taste.
I would rather had used the first one.


What do you guys think about this cover?

Rihanna for Vogue , By Steven Klein

When I first saw these pictures I was almost hyperventilating. Rihanna was so hot and the editorial was on top.
Too bad it was for Vogue Italy.
And only the collection supplement.

Here's some of my favorites pics , I'll add more once the new features from blogger (the "read more" feature , pffu finally, after 10 years, will be working correctly)

One day, one day Ri-ri you'll be on the cover.

Beyonce en couverture du Vogue U.S.

Ou la la, mais que se passe - t- il ?

Une femme noire deux mois de suite sur la couverture du Vogue U.S. !!!!
Après Michelle Obama en Mars, voici Beyonce sur le dessus de l'issue "SHAPE" .

Certains voix se sont plaint que Vogue ait choisi Beyonce comme stéréotype de la femme noire, qui a des courbes prononcées. C'est vrai que j'ai été un peu déçue sur le fait qu'ils ont probablement choisi Beyonce par rapport à cette issue, mais ce n'est rien que moins que la couverture du Vogue U.S. ( et elle n'a rien à promouvoir à part ses courbes  dernièrement).
Je préfère largement Beyonce à la recurrence de Gisèle Budchen sur les dernières couvertures concernant cette issue.Franchement ,qu'est ce que Gisèle a en rapport avec la silhouette humaine, je me le demande.
Je pense aussi que YES WE CAN commence à avoir beaucoup d'influence dans les médias.
Que pensez vous du choix de Vogue de mettre Beyonce en avant?
