One of the most awaited glam events – the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards – was held yesterday, on January 31, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
While some were burning with anticipation of who was to win, others, including me, were looking forward to seeing fashion choices of the evening. And, sincerely speaking, we were not disappointed!
Lots of beautifully dressed ladies arrived to the event and sashayed on the red carpet showing off themselves.
The outfit I liked the most was worn by eccentric Lady GaGa. Custom-made Giorgio Armani Prive gown looked fabulous! I really mean it. I loved the dress! Of course it was far from ordinary but the color was nice and the design wasn’t aggressive. Rather it brought some unexpected femininity to GaGa’a look, something that she usually misses. The shoes were shocking though. They looked great but were hardly safe to wear.
Jennifer Lopez looked stunning in an unusual silver-white gown, white peep-toe shoes and absolutely sumptuous bracelets!
Lea Michele glammed up the red carpet sporting a sexy black one-shoulder dress with a feathered hemline and matching black heels.
Next comes gorgeous Marisa Miller in a snowy white vintage Gucci mini-dress and black Yves Saint Laurent pumps. The supermodel looked perfect! I’ve got one question though, why does she always choose short white dresses for red carpet events?

The Haiti tragedy has shocked everyone and people all over the world do what they can to help the sufferers. Celebrities and ordinary people have joined forces to solve the problem.
Lindsay Lohan couldn’t stand aside. She decided to raise money for the earthquake-stricken Caribbean country by selling her leggings chaper and donating all the proceeds to the Save the Children organisation.
Lindsay told People magazine:
It is truly horrible what has happened to the people and children in Haiti. I believe every company should do their part to help by donating what they can. Please help us do our part for the Children of Haiti by purchasing this 6126 legging. I am proud to announce that we are giving 100 per cent of the proceeds to Haiti’s children through an organisation I am passionate about, Save the Children. ‘Fame’ leggings will retail for $65, originally $90, for a limited time only to help the victims of the earthquake in Haiti.”
Save the Children is the leading independent organization that’s working on improving the lives of children in need in the United States and around the globe.
Jessica Simpson makes her contribution through the Tennessee-based charity Soles4Souls selling her shoes. The singer, actress and now designer is working with her friends Cacee Cobb and Ken Paves to gain 50,000 pairs of shoes in 50 days for the victims.
She said:
Let’s do everything that we can for the tragedy in Haiti.”

We all know the power of accessories. And if the ones are strong and vibrant they can change the whole look of yours.
Kenzo collection of accessories for winter 2010 is a very special one. It includes unusual handbags made of fur, suede and leather, embellished with sequins and adorned with clips and rivents. The technique of patchwork is used beautifully too. The colors are bright and very fresh and youthful.
Belts come in ordinary designs but there are some eccentric ones as well. I just love those with fur on buckles!
Shoes are nice but seem to be too dangerous to walk in. The platforms are huge and don’t look steady enough. The fur trimming looks chic.
Hats are very warm and stylish, but you can’t wear them with your classic coat, of course.

Pieces created by Stuart Weitzman are always a presentation of exquisite and classic taste. Shoes, boots, sandals – no matter what this designer works on – are exclusive and sophisticated in the result.
The catalogue of footwear for Spring-Summer 2010 just proves my words. It includes fabulous evening shoes, luxurious sandals and practical but very beautiful boots every fashionista would like to have in her wardrobe.
Shoes are chic, especially the open-toe ones made of red suede. Ankle boots as well as knee-high and thigh-high boots are very trendy now and look brilliant in the collection.
There is a pair of leather boots also, which looks special and will help you to stand out.

Paris Hilton isn’t very lucky in business. We have recently heard about her failure in producing champaign and now again she has got a problem.
The socialite is being sued by a shoe company named Gwyneth Shoes for stealing their design – a heart-shaped pad on the insole – and using it in her own fashion line. The company claims the heart cushion idea was patented in 2007, and already a few months later Paris launched her own brand of shoes in February 2008.
Paris is in real trouble as Gwyneth Shoes filed the lawsuit documents last week in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington. The company requires to hand over every pair of the shoes they found suspiciouly similar to their own ones.
When Paris was presenting her shoe collection back in February 2008 she felt very happy and called her line chic, high quality and affordable.
She said:
Paris Hilton Footwear is perfect for the fashion-forward young woman who wants to look and feel great from head-to-toe, without spending a fortune.”
I wonder what she will say this time.

Stuart Weitzman has recently said he isn’t going to create his famous Million Dollar Shoe for the Oscars ceremony this year. He explains his decision by financial instability in the country.
Every year, the renowned shoe designer personally sizes and crafts a special jewelled shoe for one lucky woman to wear to the Academy Awards. However, the tradition has been stopped for awhile until the recession fades.
Weitzman comments:
There will be no Million Dollar Shoe for the Oscars this year. With so many people struggling financially, and unemployment at 10 per cent, I don’t think it is appropriate. The actresses still want to go for glamour, but this year it will be more understated.”
The list of the lucky ladies who had a chance to wear Weitzman’s Million Dollar Shoe to past Oscars includes: Ray star Regina King, Dreamgirls actress Anika Noni Rose and Mulholland Drive’s Laura Harring. Other stars who have worn the designer’s shoes to other glam events are Angelina Jolie, Katie Holmes, and Kate Winslet.

Celebrities sometimes surprise me a lot. One of the most recent is Heidi Range who has confessed she loves bargaining when buying clothes.
The person whose records with the Sugababes are sold in millions of copies haggles over the price! What is it? Greediness? Passion? Economy?
The blonde admits she just can’t resist a bargain and always makes attempts to negotiate over the cost of her designer outfits.
She said:
If I see something I really love, I try to sweet-talk the sales staff to put it away for me, so I can get it at a discount price. I’m really into Chanel handbags. I’ve got six now and I’m still counting. They’re totally classic. My Stella McCartney blanket coat is a favourite. My boyfriend bought it for me several years ago. It was expensive, even at the sale price, but it was last forever. I wear it every winter.”
The beauty also mentioned her weakness for shoes. She told she could spend a whole day shopping for chic pairs of heels.
