Julia Louis Dreyfus in Carolina Herrera
Her hair is super cute on her, and the patent leather detail add something fresh to the fairly simple dress.

Lucy Liu in Zac Posen
The detail! Just a beautiful gown...
I would've preferred a more interesting earring choice or maybe a bright lip.

Kerry Washington in Prada
A baby 4 months old now, Kerry is looking really great. Loving the new hair, the makeup, the seaming of the dress...funky and beautiful.

Gwen Stefani in such an opposite look from last night's VMA story. 
She looked great both night - so beautiful. Her top and skirt, Versace, is made from Swarovski crystals, so it's super heavy. And she was inspired by the designer and had her hair straightened like Donatella. LOVE the makeup on her.

Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves in Zuhair Murad
They both look so gorgeous. This dress shows how "perfect" her body is, and he stands out in the blue and black combo.

Heidi Klum in Zac Posen
Beautiful coral color on her skin tone and golden hair color, and the dress fits her like a glove.

Alicia Quarles
So flattering on the chest, I think Alicia looks like a Hollywood superstar in this unique gown. The deep v is beautiful on her chest, and the color choice perfect. LOVE this look.

Giuliana Rancic in a Gustavo Cadile gown
The first time I saw her blond hair, I wasn't sure, but made into a sleek long bob and parted down the middle, I am now loving this bright look on her. But when I stared at her on TV, I couldn't stop staring at her gown. The sharp cuts and large train - oh my gosh gorgeous. Loving the red pop (with a little purple) on her too - so different for her.

Viola Davis in Escada
I am LOVING the bright blue on Viola! And this neckline is perfect on her body type.

Mindy Kaling in Kenzo
What a fun look for Mindy! The silver vertical lines are flattering and giving her a bit more of an edge.

Kristen Wiig in Vera Wang
I saw Kristen and thought, "angelic," heaven-like...
White is a tough color to wear, especially in satin, and she looks HOT.
I love the addition of a black tee-strap heel too - goes with the smokey eye and unexpected.

Cat Deeley in Burberry
When I saw Cat, I was so glad to see her also looking so angelic. The beautiful hairstyle and flowing gown , the multiple bracelets, and the big smile = perfection.

Hayden Panettiere in Lorena Sarbu
The sheer top allows for the sexiness without the possible spillover, and the mom-to-be looked radiant and so happy. I have never seen her look more beautiful.

Louise Roe in Monique Lhuillier
This floral gown and pop of a brightly colored strappy high heel caught my attention right away. The fit was perfection. I hate the hair on her, and I would've preferred a drop earring or little bit of lip color when it comes to makeup and hair though. Super fun dress!!

Jessica Pare
The hair, makeup, and dress with peep-toe heels is a bag full of sexiness.

Michelle Monaghan in Giambattista Valli Couture
I almost didn't recognize the light-haired Michelle in white silk. Beautiful no matter what her hair color, she glows, and her metallic gold strappy heels shine right along with her.

Natalie Dormer
Young bombshell alert with her sultry eyes
Love the seaming on this dress...

Alexandra Daddario
I could not stop staring at her body when they turned the camera around Alexandra. Hollywood glamour - HOTNESS.

Laura Prepon in Gustavo Cadile
LOVE the super dark hair on her with the green gown. Would've liked a slight smile...

Allison Janney in Nicolas Jebran
Bright velvet - love it on her! And the knot is so unique and special. She looked GREAT.

Allison Williams in Giambattista Valli Couture
Looking super skinny (making me nervous), I was hesitant to speak on this, but I will speak on the fashion in this blog post. I am obsessed with her ball gown. The floral under the tulle was such a great idea. And I liked the yellow (been obsessed with yellow a lot lately), but not necessarily with this blush color or her skin tone. Maybe a bright emerald green instead as the bright pop...or hot pink...

Christine Baranski
Now THIS is how a classy, stylish lady over 50 dresses - WOW. PERFECTION.
Frazer Harrison/Getty Images
Keke Palmer in Rubin Singer
Although I would've preferred a bit more lip again, this dress on her body, again, is ridiculous. PERFECTION. The lines on this gown were created by a special designer, and it fit her like a glove. Perfect shape on her body.

Sarah Hyland in Christian Siriano
Loving the hair colors on sarah, and the makeup looked beautiful with the full skirt (You know I love a good brow especially). I would've liked a bit more of a sparkle on the ears, but wow is she beautiful - she doesn't need much.
Frazer Harrison/Getty Images
Another by Christian Siriano, Teyonah Parris stunned in a bright number. The hair was so great with the stripes.

Kaley Cuoco in Monique Lhuillier, kissing husband, Ryan Sweeting
Princess and Prince, hopefully about to live happily ever after in style ;)

Aaron Paul and Lauren Parsekian
She looks amazing in Lorena Sarbu.

Kit Harington looked dapper. The bow tie was especially angled and great with his hair.
Frazer Harrison/Getty Images
Love this look!
Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Justin Mikita
Just cool!

Matt Bomer in Tom Ford
Handsome, how a Hollywood star looks right before all of the women scream his name and he realizes he is now a star.

VMA Hotness

The VMA's are known for sexiness, risk, and some fun with fashion. So let's get started!

trends:
all black
black leather
bandeau tops with high waisted bottoms
silver sparkles
fit and flare - nipped waist
cutouts

Black leather was a huge trend (and who loves leather more than me?!)
Ariana Grande wearing Moschino and her usual high ponytail. If she were any younger or older, it might not work, but at 21, Ariana is experimenting and showing the world she is HERE.



Miley Cyrus showed up to the red carpet in a very subtle way compared to her looks of 2013. She wore all black Alexandre Vauthier Couture and neutral makeup. I would've like a little accessory, but she looks great. It's a fun, stylish look for the VMA's.

I would totally wear this - not too over the top but unique enough. 
Lucy Hale in cutout leather:

Chanel Iman - fit like a glove and her curves were great in this dress.
This supermodel obviously looks good most days, but wow - tonight's edgy look brought her to the next level. 


Jordan Dunn with a similar long bob:


Silver Sparkles was another trend

Jennifer Lopez looked AMAZING in a cutout dress by Charbel Zoe with Jimmy Choo pumps.

I think her makeup drowned her out a bit and was too pale, but the body ROCKED. 


Iggy Azalea looked stunning in a unique Versace gown. She loves showing her hips, and those hips don't lie in this dress. My son was even staring at her as they showed her gown on TV, zooming on the detail. Her makeup looked pretty, though I would've liked her to add a little bit more as well, even just more mascara.

Kesha - what has happened to her in the past year or so? She has figured out how to continue her rainbow hair while looking beautiful and classy instead of trashy. Beautiful.

Other standouts

Chloe Grace Moretz was so fun in an embellished Louis Vuitton top and usually unflattering pink pants that looked great on her petite frame.

Nicki Minaj is proving she can wear high fashion in a not-so-extravagant way (like she used to) and she will still stand out. She looked sexy! Perfect dress length for her body. And I loved the texture detail.

Gwen Stefani wore her line, L.A.M.B., and showed off her thin frame. She always manages to look new and fresh, and I loved the color on her.

And now to the....
WORST
Rita Ora
So disappointed! Rita often times looks so good, so fashionable, so RIGHT NOW. But tonight, she looked like she got dressed in the limo, and she just looked trashy.

This is just getting desperate:
Kim Kardashian with her messy hair.

Love it on the model. It looks angular and so cool on the model, but so sloppy on Kim, who also looks like she doesn't know how else to get attention than to show her breasts lately.

And how old do they think they need to act/dress?
I do like Kendall's though, but she is a model and is not overtly sexy. Kylie, however, wow - looking at least 10 years older than she is and it's so inappropriate - just have fun with your age!

Becky G.
I don't know who she is but when I saw this I had to post and just say - NO thank you.

Nina Dobrev is one of the most beautiful people in my opinion, and she looks here like she just threw something on that doesn't suit her skin color in the slightest and was bought off the rack. This is the VMA's!

Katy Perry
We get it, but I don't...it's not cute and it's what...13 years later? Couldn't you just be original?

Her style inspiration:

Demi Lovato
I actually love the red on her, and I get that she was trying to look glamorous. However, her breasts were taped strangely and the purse just looks too prom with it.

Amber Rose - I can't...I just can't...
Sarah-Hyland
I think Sarah is GORGEOUS and that's what bothers me about this outfit so much. It's so unflattering to her body. Loving her dark makeup with light hair though - a cool change for her for the VMA's.


Jerome Jarre
I would get it if he were trying to be part of the silver sparkly group, but the pants just don't fit!!
And that's all for the VMA's this year. Lots of good and lots of bad. Until next!
