Last Night's Looks: 2012 Billboard Music Awards

Carrie Underwood walked the carpet at the 2012 Billboard Music Awards wearing an Oscar de la Renta Fall 2012 Gown paired with a 'Cara' clutch and matching heels from the same designer. I think Carrie looks like a princess with her long blonde hair tumbling over her shoulders and the epic frothiness of the dress. It suits her figure perfectly, I like the accessories she paired with it and her neutral make-up makes her look eau-natural! Love the whole look - definately my favourite from the night.


Alicia Keys wore a very close fitting Azzedine Alaia Couture gown in what I can only describe as a mixture between a really dark berry colour and black. She definately has an amazing figure that can totally rock this dress but the fact there is nothing to draw your attention away from the flatness of the colour kind of disappointed me - I would have loved it to be backless or feature a lace back. I love the braided hair all pinned up, the layering of Repossi earrings and the bold make-up which gives her an edge.


Jordin Sparks wore a Diane von Furstenberg ‘Zarita’ lace dress which she paired with black DVF sandals and David Yurman jewelry. I love the scalloped edges, the floral pattern and three-quarter length sleeves on this dress - it looks sexy and professional all at the same time. Liking that she rocked the side ponytail all ruched and messed up - its one of my favourite hairstyles and I love seeing celebs rocking it too. The shoes are a bit boring but overall I really love the look!


Miley Cyrus wore a white Jean Paul Gaultier jacket as a dress which she paired with black and white Christian Louboutin heels and Jacquie Aiche jewelry. The hair looks far too old for her - she's still a late teen but this hair looks like its from a 40 year old woman (the cut and the colour). That body chain she's wearing seems to be supporting her boobs (which look rubbish in this dress) and the shoes look like a last minute add-on to the outfit. Her figure looks great and wearing a jacket as a dress was very daring but I don't think on this occasion she pulled it off.

Last Night's Look: 2012 Grammy Awards

Carrie Underwood wore a white floorlength backless gown by Gomez-Gracia paired with a black clutch and diamond jewelry. Embellished gowns were a bit of a theme of the evening but Carrie's was quite different with the ruggedness of her look rather than the sleek sequined looks of others. I love the messy hair style paired with the elegant gown, but dislike the bold black bag - she does look fabulous if a bit covered up!

The 2012 Grammy Awards were held last night (January 12th) at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. There were a huge variety of gowns, designers, make-up and hair styles on loads of stars from Adele to Rebecca Black! I've picked a few of my favourite looks and can't wait to hear what yours are!

Jessie J wore a completely embellished floor length Julien Macdonald gown with a mermaid style skirt and structured shape. She added a LuluGuinness signature black lips clutch to complete the look. The dress perfectly suits her (even if it does resemble a disco ball!) and I like that she kept her hair in those blunt bangs as it hits back to her normal look and styles whilst looking more red carpet glam. 

Taylor Swift wore a nude embellished Zuhair Muard gown from the Fall 2011 Runway Collection. The high neckline and capped sleeves are something I don't think we've seen Taylor in before and it really suits her - especially with that high simple bun and quite nude make-up palette. I know she wears nude dresses quite a lot but I thought this was a different look for her and one which she pulled off well.

Gwyneth Paltrow wore a floor length Stella McCartney gown with cutout detailing and a shiny gold belt. I think the gown itself is fabulous as it gives the illusion of curves to her figure whilst still looking dramatic and sexy. For this particular look, I would love to have seen her hair up in a sleek side ponytail as I think it would have complimented the belt and shape of the dress fabulously!
