If you are a REAL fashionista and lover or all things fabulous and stylish, then the Metropolitan Museum of Art (MOMA) Costume Institute Gala is the red carpet event of the year. It is when celebrities and well-known personalities strut their stuff in haute couture and high fashion looks in order to make a calculated statement. The theme of this year’s gala was Punk Chaos to Couture.

The Met Gala is not your average red carpet event; everyone who attends pulls out the stops in theatrical and dramatic pieces that are showstopping and intense. And while some celebrities bring their A game to the Met, others, well—let’s just say completely miss the mark. But whatever the case, us water-cooler enthusiasts love to watch the red carpet part of the gala live online and ooh and aww and hell naw at the looks being shown.

This year’s frock game on the Met Gala red carpet was a little like foreplay; very stimulating and kind of exciting—but you kept waiting to get to the actual foreplay. And after waiting for it to happen, you are disappointed when it ends in a hug. That is exactly how I felt with the looks from the night. I am by no means a true fashion reporter or “expert”, but I know what I like. I know what is aesthetically appealing. And most of the red carpet Met Gala looks tried hard but failed. Meh.

The theme for the night was Punk Chaos to Couture; but most of the celebrities on the red carpet played it too safe.

Hits from the night: Jennifer Lopez, Anne Hathaway, Solange, Nicole Richie, and Gwen Stefani.

Honorable mentions: Beyonce, Kerry Washington, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Amanda Seyfried.

When it comes to awards shows that are fun and unfiltered, the MTV Movie Awards are the epitome of that description. Honoring all that is fun and fab in movies, the MTV Movie Awards are more about shocking and awing than celebrating real movie cinema; but that’s okay because MTV never takes itself too seriously. Which is why a lot of people like to watch and see what happens.

And we all know that it’s the red carpet that is mostly what we pay the most attention to; who is wearing what, how they are wearing it, and yes, in some instances, WHY are they wearing it? If the Oscars are where the best dressed play, then the MTV Awards are where the creatives come to get some attention.

Check out this year’s red carpet fashion for yourself and see who rocked it and, well who didn’t:

Nominee Kerry Washington wearing Roger Vivier dress and Klutch It by Kele Clutch

The post Fashion Red Carpet Rundown: 2013 MTV Movie Awards appeared first on The Cubicle Chick.

The 85th Annual Academy Awards is officially a wrap, but that doesn’t mean the party is over. The day after the Oscars are just as fun, because pundits like myself have had a moment to officially digest the show and pick out our hits and misses on the red carpet. The Academy Awards are all about high glamour, ultimate fashion, and amazing style. And while not everyone wowed us, there are certainly plenty who ruled that red carpet.

So, without further adieu, here we go!

5 Most Fabulous on the 2013 Oscar Red Carpet:

5. Nicole Kidman

Nicole Kidman ended up on a lot of Worst Dressed Lists today, but I think that she looked gorgeous in this L’Wren Scott gown. The Oscars aren’t about playing it safe—we want haute couture with wow factor, and Nicole certainly brought that to the Oscar red carpet last night.

4. Kerry Washington

Kerry Washington is always one of my favorites on the red carpet. She can do no wrong. Kerry chose to wear another Miu Miu number, this time a strapless melon colored gown with train. The end result was hauteness.

3. Jennifer Lawrence

It was definitely Jennifer Lawrence’s night as she snagged the Best Actress Oscar for her performance in Silver Linings Playbook. And even despite a fall walking up the steps to get her Oscar statue, she still remained beautiful in her Dior Couture gown.

2. Jessica Chastain

When I first saw Jessica Chastain on the red carpet, I was speechless. Yes, the nude colored gown wasn’t what I would’ve chosen for her, but the whole package with the gown, the curves, the hair, and that red lippy gave me life. I simply thought she looked like perfection.

1. Charlize Theron

Charlize is my fashion muse. She always gets it right on the red carpet and last night was no exception. She stunned in a white Dior Couture number with form bodice and long skirt. Her short hair and natural makeup made her look like a goddess on the red carpet. Well done, Charlize!

Honorable mentions: Kelly Rowland, Naomi Harris, Naomi Watts, Reese Witherspoon, Amy Adams, and Halle Berry.

2013 Oscar Red Carpet Trends

Bangs:

Let’s blame Michelle Obama for this, shall we?

Jennifer Hudson wearing her hair long with cut bangs

Oscar winner Octavia Spencer rocking bangs and an updo on the red carpet

Kelly Rowland also rocked an updo with bangs and wispy sides

Actress Sally Field w/ wispy bangs

 E!’s 2013  Giuliana Rancic wearing her hair minus extensions with wispy bangs

Metallic:

Metallic gowns with bright shimmer and high fashion were also popular on the 2013 Oscar red carpet. Very haute!

Halle Berry in a metallic Versace number

Actress Naomi Watts wearing a metallic Armani frock

Stacy Keibler dazzles in Naeem Khan

Catherine Zeta Jones in gold sequins

Oscar winner Sandra Bullock

FLOTUS Michelle Obama announced the Best Picture award in a silver gown

Backs of dresses:

While the women of Hollywood want to be breathtaking from the front, they also want to leave their mark as they walk away. Which is why this year, some of the best features of the gowns on the red carpet is the back of the dress!

Kerry Washington’s magnificent train

Jennifer Garner’s ruffled layers

Anne Hathaway is simply stunning in Prada

The post Oscar Fab: 85th Academy Awards Live Red Carpet Photo Rundown appeared first on The Cubicle Chick.

Award season is in full swing as the 55th Annual Grammy Awards took place last night at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. I didn’t get to catch the full show since I am in Washington, D.C. for Shot@Life (more on that later), but I did get to watch the last hour or so with some pretty fab performances by Maroon 5, Alicia Keys, and Rihanna.

Much was talked about before the Grammy’s about a list of “fashion standards and practices” CBS sent out to the artists and guests attending the ceremony. Because of heavy fines and such by the FCC, CBS seems to be trying to clamp down on how scantily clad an artist can be on live television.

None of that seemed to matter last night as music’s best came out to be honored, entertained, and acknowledged. Winners for the evening included Miguel, Frank Ocean, Rihanna, Beyonce, Kelly Clarkson, and more!

Feast your eyes on a complete red carpet rundown of all of your favorite musicians and celebrities:

Grammy winner Rihanna in a crimson Alaia number

Grammy winner Beyonce Knowles-Carter in a Osman pantsuit

Actress and singer Jennifer Lopez wearing Anthony Vaccarello

Singer Alicia Keys

Katy Perry

Singer and actor Justin Timberlake

Singer Carly Rae Jepsen

Grammy nominee Adele

Singer Taylor Swift

Singer Carrie Underwood

Singer Estelle

Singer Ashanti

Grammy nominee Elle Varner

Rapper Nelly

Singer Miranda Lambert

Singer Natasha Bedingfield

Singer Janelle Monae

Grammy nominee Nas

Mary Mary’s Erica Campbell

Musician Esperanza Spalding

Singer Chris Brown in all white Lanvin

Rapper Wiz Khalifa with fiancee Amber Rose

Singer Florence Welch and the Machines

Actress Nicole Kidman with hubby country singer Keith Urban

Singer Kelly Rowland in Georges Chakra

Grammy winner Frank Ocean

The post 44th Annual NAACP Image Awards Red Carpet Rundown Photos appeared first on The Cubicle Chick.

Last night, the 19th Annual Screen Actor’s Guild Awards were in full effect. The SAG Awards are pretty special to the actors because they are voted on by other SAG actors. The SAG card is a right of passage for most actors, and allows them union type of protection and perks such as health insurance, dental, etc. For big actors, that isn’t a huge deal, but for those actors who are struggling trying to make ends meet, being a SAG member is a pretty huge feat.

The red carpet last night was full of fabulousness. We saw a lot of black and white, side parts, updo’s, and texture. The SAG Awards aren’t the most prestigious during the award season, but I was impressed with many of the looks I saw on the red carpet.

Here are my SAG Awards’ 5 Most Fab of the Night:

5. Teyonah Parris

Teyonah was breathtaking in a purple (lilac I’m told) Monique Lhuillier textured gown with halter neckline. I loved this look on Teyonah, and was enamored by her natural hair, which was fashioned in a haute updo. Teyonah is an actress who you may have seen on Mad Men or in a McDonald’s commercial airing nationwide. I hope to see big things from her!

4. Jessica Chastain

Jessica Chastain can do no wrong these days. First she wowed us in The Help, and now has been nominated for all types of awards for her performance in Zero Dark Thirty. Jessica’s red hair complimented this scarlet red gown from Alexander McQueen showing off her fab figure. Her makeup was simple and toned down, but I think it really worked to her favor.

3. Kerry Washington

Kerry Washington is my girl crush. I have loved her since I saw her in Save the Last Dance years ago. Kerry is now making her mark as Olivia Pope on ABC’s Scandal, and is getting all types of praises. Her look for the evening was designed by Rodarte in what she calls, “Olivia Pope White”. I like the two-piece effect of her look with the jeweled corset top and flowing skirt. Well done, Kerry!

2. Amanda Seyfried

Amanda claims that she doesn’t know that much about fashion, but I can’t tell. She wore a dream of a strapless gown by Zac Posen, in a brilliant dark blue color with layered train. Another trend of the evening, side-parted hair, completed the look with a natural smoky eye. Perfection!

1. Jennifer Lawrence

Jennifer Lawrence graced the red carpet with walking pneumonia, but still ended up looking the most fab of the night! The Silver Linings Playbook actress looked stunning and radiant in a Dior Couture gown. So haute!

Honorable mentions: January Jones, Nicole Kidman, Anne Hathaway, Naomi Watts, and Marion Cotillard.

SAG Award Red Carpet Trends

Updo’s:

E!’s Kelly Osborne rocked her lilac locks in a french roll

Teyonah Parris rocked a series of tucked buns for a stunning natural hair look

Kerry Washington wore side-part bangs with ponytail

Actress Busy Phillips with a sleek updo

I love Jayma Mays’ messy pony-bun

Black and white:

Actress Julianna Margulies

Mad Men’s January Jones

Game Changer Actress Julianne Moore

Actress Marion Cotillard

Claire Danes

Side Parts/Soft Waves:

Jennifer Lawrence

Carmen Electra

Jessica Chastain

Naomi Watts

The 70th Annual Golden Globes did not disappoint. There was plenty of entertaining moments that kept me interested throughout the entire 3 hour telecast, and I think that co-hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler did a fabulous job. But what people will be discussing in the next few days to come is who rocked the Golden Globe red carpet fabulously and well, who didn’t.

Not one to focus on the negative, I always select my 5 most fabulous best dressed looks on the red carpet. So without further adieu, here was my selections:

5. Jessica Alba

Jessica’s peach confection of a dress was simply stunning. It complemented her figure and her skin tone, and even looked more gorgeous on television than it did in pictures. Jessica definitely brought her A-game to the 2013 Golden Globe red carpet.

5. (Tie) Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift is showing us why she isn’t a little girl anymore. She vamped it up with a beautiful chocolate hued gown by Donna Karan, looking quite svelte and very adult like. I have to give props where props are due, and Taylor gave us the WOW factor, indeed.

4. Kate Hudson

Kate Hudson slayed this look from Alexander McQueen. The form of the dress worked with it’s sleek lines, gold embellishments, and deep keyhole cut-out. Love this look!

3. Meagan Fox

Meagan Fox will never be Angelina Jolie, but that doesn’t matter. In this Dolce and Gabbana number, Meagan made sure all eyes were on her. I love this dress and the way it enhanced her curves. Gorgeous!

2. Anne Hathaway

Anne can do no wrong. With her edgy haircut and slim physique, she personifies true Hollywood glamour. Her dress for the 2013 Golden Globes truly represented everything she has become—a style and fashion goddess. Love, love, love her!

1. Naomi Watts

I predicted that the 70th Annual Golden Globes would return to old Hollywood glamour, I had no idea that one star in particular would hit it out of the park. Naomi Watts looked amazing in an oxblood hued gown with resplendent train, shoulder pads, and keyhole neckline. Fab jewels and an updo capped off her look, which was GORGEOUS! Well done, Naomi!

Honorable mentions: Claire Danes, Kerry Washington, Jennifer Lawrence, Amy Adams, Nicole Kidman, and Sofia Vergara.

The post Live Thread: 70th Annual Golden Globe Red Carpet Rundown Photos appeared first on The Cubicle Chick.

Written By: Style and Fashion Contributor, Coco Michelle

Fashionistas unite! The fashion world’s version of the playoffs for Super Bowl is upon us. Awards season draweth nigh! Set your DVR, stock up on the microwave popcorn and hide the remote from your husband. It’s time to watch Hollywood stars pucker, primp and dress to impress.

In January and February, there are at least 7 awards shows celebrating the achievements of Hollywood’s movie industry.  The big four are The Golden Globes on Sunday 1/13 (read our predictions HERE), The Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards on Sunday 1/27, Grammy Awards on 2/10, and the granddaddy of all awards shows, The Academy Awards on Sunday 2/24.

As Hollywood takes a few weeks to pat themselves on the back for a job well done, both starlets and veteran actresses train like marines in boot camp to prepare for their big Hollywood close up.

So, are you wondering why anyone should care so passionately about these Hollywood award shows? Well, it’s all about the fashion, hunny!

No one can deny that celebs play a huge role in setting the pace for what’s hot and what’s not. What an actress wears on awards night can make or break her future career options.  Who can forget Jennifer Lopez’s floral Versace stunner at the 2000 Grammy’s or Halle Berry’s barely there dress at the 2002 Oscars?  Celebs don’t wield the same sway as the stars of old, but today’s celebs still influence most of us whether we like to admit it or not.  The twist is that today, the celebs also reflect the masses and then add their own flavor.

Trend Watch

When you watch the awards shows, try to spot the trends.  That’s the fun part! Be sure to scrutinize colors, dress lengths, hair, jewelry, accessories, lip colors, eyes and shoes.  Do you remember the bright, neon colors, bare décolleté and long, dropped earrings at the September 2012 Emmy Awards? Those bright colors were a bit of a revolt against the black, red and off-white many celebs wore on the red carpet earlier in 2012 at the Globes, SAG and Academy Awards.  It’s anyone’s guess what trends the celebs will embrace this year, but we predict a return to classic Hollywood glamour complete with bold, red lips, pin curls and soft waves, updos, beaded gowns, and neutral palettes.

Although last year’s choices were quite lovely, I predict you won’t see much black, off-white and red this year on the red carpet.  Instead of “playing it safe” like last year, I expect the stars to explode with color and shimmer brightly on the red carpet.

Who to Watch

Anne Hathaway

Taylor Swift

Nicole Kidman

Jennifer Lawrence

Emily Blunt

Naomi Watts

Angelina Jolie

Happy star gazing! Which award show are you looking most forward to watching?
