Solange Knowles was far beyond a sight for sore eyes in a strapless, bright yellow Rachel Roy gown with peplum detail. I love the color of this dress and think it’s a perfect reflection of the fashion industry’s affinity toward bright colors. Is it just me, or does the dress have a matte look to [...]

Lala Anthony has curves for days, and she showed just how dangerous they are in a cobalt blue Zac Posen gown at the 2012 Met Gala.

#MetGala: Anna Del Russo In Alexander McQueen and an Egg Hat

Anna Del Russo is a vision literally as we walked the red carpet in Alexander McQueen as a tribute to her late friend. But why is a mini-version of Lady Gaga’s Grammy egg on her head? I know the red carpet at the Met Gala is as good a time as any to make a [...]

I too am plotting on the time and the place when I can wear a fascinator (not sure that it’s the Met Gala though). Nonetheless, love [...]

#MetGala: Rihanna In Stella McCartney

The glamazing Rihanna walked the red carpet in a one-shoulder embroidered Stella McCartney gown. She completed the look with green chandelier earrings and a red lip. While the gown fit her beautiful frame like a glove, that long red Rapunzel/Wendy/Little Mermaid side braid gets a hmm from me. Are those glambulance sirens I hear? I would’ve [...]
