Best and Worst Dressed at the AMA's 2013

Last night the stars were well and truly out for the American Music Awards at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles. Let's take a look at the red carpet hits and misses from last night. 


Best Dressed: 


Kendall and Kylie Jenner

O.M.G. The two Jenner sisters are definitely growing up and Kylie's (right) look was my favourite look of the night. She really reminded me of Kourtney Kardashian with her newly cut bangs and I loved her monochrome outfit- a white leather sleeveless top with velvet cigarette trousers and stiletto boots. Kendall looked elegant in her white mini dress with silver embellishments around the neck. 

Lady Gaga

Looking slightly toned down, but just as beautiful as ever, Gaga donned a lilac Versace gown that made her look every inch the Grecian goddess. The elaborate silver body jewellery juxtaposed her simple blonde flowing locks- perfect. 

Miley Cyrus

*shocked face* Is that really Miley in Versace Versus? she looks stunning in this simple trouser suit with plunging V and oversized gold safety pin detail, thumbs up. 


Katy Perry

If there is one person who can adopt a vampy, get utterly adorable look, it's KP. I love her floor- length cutesy spotted print gown with floral detail and her rouge with tight black curls make her look reminiscent of Snow White. Beautiful! 

One Direction

Puberty has truly worked it's magic on these five lads as they are looking dapper on the red carpet. Extra brownie points go to Liam (centre) for his gorgeous coat and moustache, he is definitely my new fave member of 1D. 


Naya Rivera

*fans self* oh gosh, how hot is Rivera looking in Michael Kors? little black dresses are always a winner, but with a risque cut-out like that, I'm not surprised she turned heads. Loose curls and some chunky gold bangles finish off her look perfectly. Take note ladies..

Rihanna

I'm being totally biased here because I'm pretty sure if anyone else wore this, I think it would be in my worst dressed... I love Rihanna's style and I just think that although this looks slightly on the lingerie side, it is an intriguing two piece. With the sheer diamond paneling to the bottom half of the gown, I really can't tell whether the pattern is a new tattoo, or a floral detailing on the chiffon.. either way it looks fab. 

Ke$ha

I WANT KE$HA'S HAIR. I love that she has adopted a pastel pink and blue for her hair, but kept it fairly conventional with a black dress and Angelina Jolie split, pretty flawless. 


Emma Roberts

I have an inner battle going on with this gown. I really like the metallic concept and I do think for someone with such a tiny frame, this gown does suit Emma Roberts. Her purse however, is a crime to fashion, it needs to be burnt. 

Worst Dressed: 

 

Taylor Swift

 Ewwww! this Julien Macdonald piece was one of the biggest disasters on the red carpet last night. When it comes to sheer paneling, the section should be the same complexion as the lady wearing the dress, this however is not. I abhor sequins too, and is it just me or is Taylor ridiculously thin now? 

Kelly Osbourne

Kelly I get that you like pastels, because your hair is lilac, but what is this dress? You aren't going to prom, and this gown is GREY. The star looks better in fish-tail dresses, or something more figure hugging- stop hiding those curves honey. 

Heidi Klum

Tassels, are the bane of my life. This dress looks like someone ripped the lace, and tried to sew the wrong parts all back together. It's a visual mess and what is with the small tufts of lace on the shoulder straps. VOM. 

Zendaya Coleman

Dressing in a sheet is totally fine, if it's Halloween Zendaya. Any more bangles on that arm Miss Coleman and you will look more like the Michelin man, and that's not a good look. 

Aubrey O'Day

Oh wow, well there isn't much left to the imagination here is there Aubrey. How is anyone meant to admire a dress when all you can see is cleavage?! This dress is a massive joke and the splits are way too much. There should be a rule: either show a lot on the top, or on the bottom: NEVER BOTH. Ewww

Keltie Knight

Erm, wow. Glitter meets iridescent feathers  with this gown and I just don't think it works. If the top half would have been teamed with a plain black pencil skirt, it would have been perfect. Feather should be reserved for, well, birds.

Harry Styles Rumoured to be dating Kendall Jenner, Directioners go into Meltdown

             From l.yimg.com

It's fair to say that Twitter went MENTAL after model Kendall Jenner was spotted out in LA last night with Harry Styles, following a low key dinner at Craig's restaurant. The pair have sparked dating rumours as they were photographed leaving in the One Direction member's Range Rover.. cheeky! 


                   From l3.yimg.com
Almost as exciting as the thought of the pair dating, is the entertainment supplied by Directioners as they proceeded to release a torrent of heartbroken anguish at the thought of the two being together. 

            
Despite the blatant gratuitous abuse some were giving, others proclaimed their approval and even made up their own hastags for the couple: #Kenry and #Hendell - CREEPY. 

Although it is mostly unknown as to how the pair met, it is said they were both at the X Factor USA studios at the same time,so could have been introduced there. Either way, the Kardashian's younger sister is only eighteen, its a little worrying that she is getting so much abuse for being spotted out with someone who could just be a friend!

The Changing Hairstyles of Miley Cyrus

Whether you love her, or love to hate her, Miley Cyrus is a pop, and fashion icon. Proving that she truly can't be tamed, Cyrus has shown us her true style transformation through her clothes, but most importantly through her 'dos, so let's take at her hairvolution!

Most recently, Miley shocked us on Instagram with a picture of this super-colourful violet wig. Being the tease she is, she revealed to us that it's only a wig she was testing for Halloween (phew!) 
                    From cdni.condenast.co.uk
After being shocked by her super blonde bob, Miley opted for a more autumnal brown in the last quarter of the year, and we are definitely big fans. 
                       From cdni.condenast.co.uk
Looking every inch the rocker, Cyrus let loose with this messy quiff as her dark roots teased the natural back into her 'do. 
               From cdni.condenast.co.uk
Here it is! This was one of our first looks at the dramatic style she adopted after so many years of long hair. Channelling her inner P!nk, it clearly suits her. 
                    From cdni.condenast.co.uk
One of this and indeed last season's most popular looks was ombre. Cyrus had her hair cut into a long, textured bob with some loose curls. 
                      From cdni.condenast.co.uk
WOWZAS. This look is definitely my favourite. Sixties bouffant hair is clearly where it's at as Cyrus teamed a white two piece suit with backcombed hair. Hot to trot, or what? 
                    From cdni.condenast.co.uk
Before the bob, was the thick, luscious hair that, let's face it, we lust for. This over-sized plait shows her youth for sure. 
                      From cdni.condenast.co.uk
Miley shows us that you don't have to be a Kardashian to look super elegant with long, loose curls
                      From cdni.condenast.co.uk
Rewind to 2008 and what do we have here? a 16 year-old Miley honing that vamp look with dark chestnut hair and a bright rouge dress. 
                              From cdni.condenast.co.uk
Oh Gosh. I bet now you are thinking the bob is best. Miley was only a young wee thing when she made the decision to incorporate highlights into her hair. We are all glad these days are over. 
                       From cdni.condenast.co.uk
This might be a wig she has on, but it's not just any old wig, it's her famous Hannah Montana prop. Working the 'do in 2007, I can't help thinking there is something reminiscent of Barbie here. Thank god these days are over.

Best and Worst Dressed at the MTV EMA's 2013

With the MTV EMA's being held at Amsterdam's Ziggo Dome, we knew it was going to be a no holds barred affair, but I certainly wasn't prepared for the amount of weird happenings. From the wardrobe malfunctions of Iggy Azalea and Miley Cyrus, to Katy Perry being cocooned in ribbons, to LMFAO's Redfoo stripping off while presenting the event, TMI was an understatement. Let's take a look at some of the fashion hits, and misses of the night. 



Best Dressed: 


Katy Perry 

Double whammy for Miss Katy Perry last night as she stepped out in two wonderful outfits. My favourite was her black netted dress complete with chunky gold Chanel accessories. 
           From i2.mirror.co.uk
Her entrance gown was equally exquisite  and it was a breath of fresh air to see a star looking more demure. I loved her duck egg blue midi dress complete with floral headband. Sophistication defined! 


Rita Ora

Miss Ora is definitely a style icon of mine, and with her freshly bleached locks, she looked even more striking last night in her black dress with high split. Despite it's simple design, her gold accessories finish off the piece perfectly. Less is more here. 
          From i.huffpost.com


Laura Whitmore 

My first thoughts on this dress were pretty negative, but I love the unusual cut of Whitmore's dress and the black and grey symmetry of the design is intriguing.  Taking such a formal dress and accompanying some simple heels with a messy up-do makes the look more casual. Thumbs up Whitty!
               From i4.mirror.co.uk


Eva Simons

I actually LOVE how Simons came out in this outrageous totem pole-esque print outfit. The fringing on her cape is a bit too much but her hair defies gravity and that earns my respect. Can I have your chunky gold chain please??
            From i2.mirror.co.uk



Worst Dressed: 


Louise Roe

So even though I'm not too sure who Roe is, I think she needs to ditch this dress, it's giving me a migraine. Prints are all well and good, but this is too much. This pattern should be stuck in a kaleidoscope, away from sensitive eyes such as mine.  
           From i3.mirror.co.uk


Dizzee Rascal 

And the award for minimal effort goes to... Dizzee! Are those tyre tracks on your sweatshirt? go buy a suit or something. 
            From i4.mirror.co.uk


Iggy Azalea 

Oh god. How do I even begin to describe the disaster which occurred last night? Iggy literally let it all hang out, front wedgy and all. Disgusting. Is nothing sacred any more?!
          


Ellie Goulding 

When will celebrities realise that the sheer trend is well and truly over? This dress is too much like lingerie and far from the usual gowns Goulding opts for. So disappointing. 
         From i1.mirror.co.uk


Ariana Grande

Ew, Ariana Grande looks emaciated here. Her dress isn't really age appropriate with the cheap-looking lace to the front of the piece, and I think Miss Grande needs advice on flesh coloured tights- the ones she is wearing are on the orange side. 
           From i3.mirror.co.uk


Miley Cyrus 

The worst dressed wouldn't be a worst dressed list without Cyrus would it? Camel toe ahoy for the star in this totally gratuitous leotard. PUT SOME CLOTHES ON. Saying that, I do usually love her other outlandish outfits.

Best and Worst Dressed at Radio 1's Teen Awards 2013

Despite only running for four years now, the Radio 1 Teen Awards have successfully recognised the talent of some of this country's many inspirational teenagers who are nominated by friends and family and chosen by a panel of celebrities. The night also gives awards to stars of film, TV and music and had a star-studded turn out last night. Let's take a look at some of the red carpet action... 


Best Dressed

Zoella

Gorgeous Youtuber Zoella graced the red carpet last night looking fabulous in her little black dress. Simple capped sleeves and a high waist complimented her figure and I love her use of simple accessories and lazy, loose curls that gave her the perfect mixture of casual and formal. 
                            From i1.cdnds.net


Taylor Swift

I love that Taylor Swift chose a positively autumnal, emerald shade for the red carpet this weekend and her silk mini dress has some beautiful embellishments on it too. 
           From oceanup.com


Dionne Bromfield

I am a massive fan of the quirky and even though Bromfield got slammed for this neon two piece, I love it and her iridescent wedges too; she is definitely carrying the '90s look and owning it!  Definitely an outfit that makes me miss Halloween. 
                From i2.mirror.co.uk


Nick Grimshaw

Ignore the lady on the right, it's all about Grimmers at the Radio 1 Teen Awards. He looked super dapper in a floral shirt and leather jacket. His look was finished off with a perfectly formed 'do and some casual black trainers. Perfect! 
                From i3.mirror.co.uk


Icona Pop

As I said above, there's nothing I love more than a bit of adventurous fashion, so I salute Icona Pop for their incorporation of glitter/iridescence to their outfits. Combined with elaborate wedges and over-sized zips, I want these outfits!
                  From i.dailymail.co.uk


Jameela Jamil

There is nothing more complimenting than black and I love this fur coat Jameela donned this weekend, her embellished tights are fabulous too. Jamil needs to realise it's winter though- lose the sunglasses silly. 
                    From i3.mirror.co.uk


Little Mix

Girl band Little Mix looked super cute yesterday with my personal favourite being Perrie's white mini dress with cut-out detail. I do love how all the girls embody their own style, yet still compliment each other. 



Worst Dressed


Charlotte Crosby 

Oh no Charlotte! This white dress does nothing for Crosby's figure, and almost makes her look slightly chubby. Her black eye make-up is also too heavy and she should definitely lose the hair extensions too. 
                                From i2.cdnds.net

Rita Ora

I never deny that Ora is my style icon, but like all human beings, she does sometimes get it wrong. I'm really not keen on this bird-inspired creation and it hides her gorgeous figure, which is definitely a thumbs down for me. Her skinny stilettos and loose curls are fabulous though. 
                              From i2.cdnds.net


Pixie Lott

Eww Miss Lott what were you thinking? This miss-matching outfit is a complete mess and her white peep-toe heels are vile. Root touch-up needed too! 
                         From i1.cdnds.net


Fearne Cotton

Although I love Cotton's tiger top, I don't think her outfit is red carpet ready at all, she looks as if she is dressed for a casual shopping trip. Take some tips from Swifty dear, and stick a dress on at least.
