Who Wore What...

It's awards season! By which I mean, it's time to see what everyone is wearing to the awards!! I really could not care less about which film/actress/actor wins what, but I DO care about the fashion successes and face plants that are sure to arise during this time of year. Ever since I was a little girl, I have been a big fan of E's Fashion Police with Joan Rivers and her gaggle of fashion critics. This awards season will be no different. So here we go...

GOLDEN GLOBE AWARDS:
Hosted by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, the award show went off without a hitch (and surprisingly quickly with the exception of some of the speeches...not naming any names).  The ladies (two of my faves I might add) did a terrific job hosting, keeping the awards show fresh and fun, which really is quite a feat if you ask me.

Now for the important stuff: THE FASHION! We saw an abundance of RED or any variation of red, along with a lot of neutrals.  In addition to the similarities in colour, the style of the night appeared to be the mermaid or trumpet shape, seen on Jessica Alba, Amy Adams, and Hayden Panettiere. Do all the stylists of these ladies get together and decide they will dress their clients identical? Oh well.

Jennifer Lawrence, Emily Blunt, Jessica Alba

 My vote for best dressed goes to : Jessica Alba wearing a coral Oscar de la Renta trumpet gown. Alba looked radiant and fresh while channeling classic hollywood beauty.

Honourable mentions: Jennifer Lawrence wearing yet another coral dress,this time by Christian Dior Haute Couture.  The actress also took home Best Actress for the film Silver Linings Playbook. Still have to check out this flick, definitely on my list before the Oscars air.

 Emily Blunt in a golden cut-out Michael Kors dress, accessorized with John Krasinski.

Sienna Miller Fashion Mis-step

The actress that I think earned a "Needs Improvement" would be: Sienna Miller in a custom Erdem top and skirt. The usually flawless actress looked like she had popped out of a 1997 Seventeen magazine prom ad.  I know the 90's are back but let's keep it flattering, shall we?

That's my two cents! Looking forward to seeing if Joan agrees! 

Happy Monday!

Beach Wedding Steez

The countdown is on! 2 more days left of work, 6 more days until Christmas, and 1 week until MAUI! My lovely friend Cat and her fiance Dave are getting "maui-ed" (they have approved the use of this pun) next week on the Hawaiian island of Maui and I am travelling out to see their special day.  I've never been away to a tropical destination during the winter holidays and I am so excited, I can barely sit still. My friend Stephanie and I are arriving on boxing day for the festivities and I am currently trying to figure out exactly what to pack.  We've decided that we are only bringing carry-ons for the trip (this is very brave for me) so I really need to stream line my usual over packing style. Besides the tiny suitcase I am limiting myself to, my next concern was WHAT TO WEAR to a beach wedding.  I've only attended a handful of weddings in the past (this will all change next year) and have never been to a beach wedding so I had no clue how to dress for such an occasion.  After careful deliberation, I have decided on the above outfit for Cat's special day (the VS dress is the actual one that I purchased!).  Long flowy maxi dress, cute but functional gladiator sandals, bright envelope clutch, aviator sunglasses, and of course, 
a beautiful lei!
Let me know what you think! Happy Holidays everyone!
