red carpets

Miss Universe 2014, Paulina Vega, was finally crowned last week, and one of our favorite dress designers was of course at the forefront of the pageant providing gorgeous gowns for all of the contestants: Mac Duggal! The dress designer's latest prom styles and never-before-seen pageant gowns were on display in Miami from the red carpet, to the runway, to the Miss Universe pageant. In combination with La Casa Hermosa and AMerican Model Magazine, Mac Duggal hosted a special Miami fashion show to kick off the Miss Universe Pageant!

The event was hosted at the historic Beauville Beach Resort in Miami, a perfect place to watch such gorgeous gowns walk the runway! American Model Magazine started the evening off with a photo shoot where all of the models got to show off their Mac Duggal gowns in front of a beautiful backdrop. In the photo below, American Model Magazine models are showing off Mac Duggal 4152 (left) and Mac Duggal 65024 (right).

After the photo shoot, it was time to start walking the red carpet! On the red carpet, Miss South Florida USA, Lisa Opie interviewed Mac Duggal to learn all about what's going on in the pageant world. He spoke about the latest trends and his contribution to all things pageant! Watch the interview here:

Once the interviews were complete and the photos taken, it was finally time for the runway show to begin. The runway models showed off some of the latest Spring 2015 prom dresses, but also unveiled some brand new pageant gowns that have never been seen before. It was definitely the perfect way to get in the mood for the Miss Universe pageant!

While watching the Golden Globes is so much fun, the party (and stunning looks) never end at the awards show. The fun always continues at the after-parties, and all the celebs have even more gorgeous looks to show off! The looks worn at this year's Golden Globes after parties were just as stunning as what was worn on the Golden Globes red carpet.

While we're obsessing over so many of the outfits, there's one that stood out from the crowd for us: Selena Gomez's sleek and sexy plunge neck gown! We love the idea of rocking white well past the summer months, so to see Selena stand out in white during a winter awards show gave us the chills (in a totally good way, of course)!

Selena rocked the sexy plunge of this dress in such a classy way. She kept the accessories simple (and classic with a gold purse), and we love how she topped the whole look off with a soft red lip color. This look screams old Hollywood to us!

Our favorite party, though? That you can easily rock this look for prom! Go with Jovani 22884 to get the same exact sleek and sexy white plunge neck gown look. It's a sexy jersey gown that features a plunging neckline and a low open back. Choose the Off White color to get Selena's look, or go with one of the three other colors this classic dress comes in: Navy, Black, or Red. Which ever color you choose, this is a dress that will definitely have you feeling like a celebrity walking the red carpet!

There were so many glamorous trends being rocked on the 2015 Golden Globes red carpet. The lady celebrities looked beautiful in nude colored dresses and sexy lace numbers, but there was one trend that so many celebs wore that it was impossible to miss: yellow dresses! Leslie Mann, Jenna Dewan Tatum, Naomi Watts, and even Taylor Swift all wore shared of yellow for the Golden Globes, and we are obsessing over every single look! Check them out below.

Yellow is a great color to rock to stand out in the crowd - it's not a popular color like red, white, or black, but it's so timeless. Plus, it looks great with a tan (hello, Spring and Summer months)! Did you notice another trend that all four of these ladies are rocking? Leslie, Jenna, Naomi, and Taylor's Golden Globes dresses were all strapless dresses, too! Want to rock a strapless yellow gown for prom or your next formal event? Check out some of our favorites below!

Rock an elegant sunflower colored strapless yellow gown with a ruched top like Taylor Swift with Clarisse 2108. It's a chiffon prom gown with a beaded belt and a flared hemline. A dress like this will flatter any figure!

Or, go for a lighter color yellow like Jenna Dewan Tatum with Tony Bowls 115573! This is a vibrant strapless lace illusion evening gown with a flowy chiffon skirt. We especially love this look because it incorporates two other popular Prom 2015 trends: illusion and lace.

If you love the idea of rocking a lighter color yellow dress, but want something a little more modest without any illusion fabric, go with Mac Duggal 51011. This is definitely a gown that will have you feeling like royalty at prom, just like the celebs walking the red carpet! This dress features a strapless sweetheart neckline and a bodice that's completely embellished with pearls, stones, and clear rhinestones. A slight keyhole opening is featured in the center of the bodice, and a long chiffon overlay extends all the way down to the floor into a delicate sweep train.

For a sparkly yellow look like Leslie Mann's Golden Globes dress, go with Alyce 6205. It's a velvet chiffon long dress with stud stones that are heavily beaded on the bodice and cascade down to the hemline. You'll be sparkling just like the stars in this dress!

The 2015 Golden Globes Red Carpet blew our minds! There were so many stunning looks, from traditional elegance to stand-out sexy, that it got us excited for the year ahead of glam, red carpets, and dressing up (and prom, of course). It was so hard to narrow it down to a few favorites, but read on to see our 2015 Golden Globes Best Dressed... plus how you can easily get these looks for prom or other formal occasions!

Greer Grammer

Greer Grammer always looks beautiful and well put together, but her look at this year's Golden Globes was exceptional! She wore a stunning pale pink/nude ball gown with gold and silver floral accents that we are obsessing over. We especially loved how she accessorized with a sparkly gold purse!

Floral is a popular Prom 2015 trend, so luckily it's not too hard to copy Greer's look for prom! Our favorite way to get the MTV Awkward TV show star's look is with Rachel Allan 6888. Just like Greer's look, it's a sweetheart strapless ball gown with floral applique in a pink/nude color. All you'll need to do is add a gold purse! Even though there's no gold in the floral embellishments on this dress, because of the pale pink color, gold (or silver!) still totally works as an accenting color.

Anna Kendrick

Twilight star Anna Kendrick is one of the cutest girls around, and her style is always just as cute. She couldn't have looked more beautiful in her nude gown with red accents at the 2015 Golden Globe Awards.

Rock the actress' elegant look for prom with Alyce 6186. It's a sweetheart tulle gown with lace embroideries on the bodice and down the skirt. You can rock it in nude/red like Anna, but it also comes in royal/black and white/black.

Chrissy Teigen

Model Chrissy Teigen is our final 72nd Annual Golden Globe Awards Best Dressed. We loved her perfectly fitted beaded long sleeved look! The dress couldn't have fit her body and showed off her sexy curves more perfectly.

For a similar look at prom or any other formal occasion, go with Claudine for Alyce 2349. Just like Chrissy's dress, it's a lace beaded evening gown with a bateau neckline, illusion sections throughout the top, and long sleeves. Keep the accessories simple, just like Chrissy did, to allow the dress to stand out.

The 2014 American Country Countdown Awards was held this past Monday night in Nashville, TN, and it was an amazing show! As much as we loved the show, of course our favorite part was watching all the celebrities walking the red carpet in their stunning outfits. The lady celeb looks really amazed us at this awards ceremony! Many of the ladies wore dresses sexy, sparkly dresses that would be so perfect for a new year's eve outfit, so they were definitely inspiring us for the biggest night of the year!

While there were so many looks that we loved, our best dressed of the night goes to Miss America Kira Kazanstev! She wore Tony Bowls TS21452, and it looked so gorgeous on her! This is a jersey short dress with long sleeves and jewel neckline that features a full length back zipper and gold beading. This dress is all about the accenting embroidered sparkles, and we love how they follow all the way down to wrist-grazing sleeves. Plus, the sparkles match her stunning blonde hair in such a perfect way. We loved how she let her hair be an accessory to this dress with her side fishtail braid. Our favorite part about her outfit? How she brought it all together with a touch of bold red on her nails!

From head to toe, this is a perfect outfit to rock for New Year's Eve. All you need to finish off Kira's look is a small black clutch, like Magid E7486 Jeweled Box Clutch, and a pair of black high heels. If you have other formal holiday parties to attend, such as a Christmas party, the long sleeves makes this dress a versatile option for a number of different occasions during the winter months. Kira rocked the dress without stockings, but don't be afraid to wear stockings with this dress for those colder December and January winter nights!

This year's 48th Annual CMA Awards brought a new flair to Country Music by adding performances from pop starlets like Ariana Grande and Meghan Trainer, but of course, all eyes were on the red carpet fashions of Country Music's finest. Danielle Bradbery is one country music singer who had the crowds talking! She looked stunning in a black Jovani jersey gown that featured a plunging neckline, Jovani style 22884!

The elegant dress was a great choice for the songstress, who brought some edge to the outfit by pairing it with a fierce ring-to-wrist bracelet, a messy fishtail braid, and white nails. The white nail polish was such a fun choice for a little bit of contrast against her black gown. And, side braids are so popular right now, so we loved her choice of keeping her hair simple, but classy, with the fishtail braid.

Danielle is a country singer from Cypress, Texas and is known for appearing on NBC's show The Voice. She won season four of The Voice in 2013, becoming the youngest contestant to come in first place. Her debut studio album, Danielle Bradbery, was released last November, which featured her single "The Heart of Dixie."

While Danielle rocked Jovani 22884 in classic black, this dress comes in 3 other classic colors: navy, off white, and red. Whatever color you choose, this is an amazing stand-out dress that's so perfect for prom! This gown and all four colors it comes in is also perfect if you have a formal Holiday party to attend. The red color, in particular, makes for a perfect Holiday look! Check out the off white and red colors here:

Danielle definitely knows how to walk the red carpet in style! We're so amazed by her look! What do you think of Danielle's look? Leave a comment below and let us know!

Kendall and Kylie Jenner are fashionistas to the core, especially since they are both models! So, it's no surprise when they ALWAYS rock the red carpet in perfect style. Most recently, they were at the 2014 Video Music Awards, and both looked so glamorous in black on the VMAs red carpet. Check out what they wore below and how you can rock the looks at Homecoming or Prom!

Kendall Jenner looked model perfect in her black illusion jumper. The jumper fit her so perfectly, showing off her curves while giving her such a classy (and classic) look. Continue reading →

From the wildly outrageous to the barely there, fashion was an abundant statement to be made at the BET Awards held on June 29th in Los Angeles.  Although not a night for the most positive fashion consistencies, there was one BET Awards Red Carpet look: long white dresses, that took us by surprise. Even though not all the participants of this trend qualified as "best dressed," we are quite pleased with the overall outcome and fashion success of this awards show.

Our first long white dress of the evening we loved was worn by the American model and recording artist Amber Rose. Usually on the provocative side, we were pleased to see the lovely Miss Amber covered in a classy, long sleeve, white gown with metallic belt. With minimal makeup, she looked more gorgeous than ever!

Former "America's Next Top Model," Eva Marcille really lit up the red carpet in a white-hot gown too! The actress/model chose a long sleeve, fitted gown with cut outs at the shoulders and sides, which hugged her body perfectly without being overly sexy.

Another stunning beauty to choose a long white frock was none other than Paris Hilton. Known for her epic fashion choices, she definitely  grabbed the attention of cameras and the show's host, Chris Rock, as he poked fun at her dress' excessive keyhole neckline. Even though it was very sexy, we loved the long white beaded gown, with front slit and intricate cut outs. She is still young, beautiful, and the gown looked very "Old Hollywood" on her! Perfect with her white cat-eye shades, she was ready to have a night of fun!

Sherri Hill 32027 Ivory Long Dress

If we were going to an awards show in a long white gown, we would probably go for something sexy, glamorous, and very statement worthy! One of our choices would be Sherri Hill 32027 jersey evening gown with lace side panels and long sleeves. A dress so dramatic, yet elegant while still capturing the right amount of sex appeal!
