It comes as no surprise as whom was my best dressed for the night. My girl Rih Rih hit the red capret in a FIERCE Elie Saab gown that matched her toned down curly red hair. This girl rarely fails me with her fashion choices!
Other winners of the night were Keri Hilson in a sleek black croc printed mini with a sexy open back. The blonde hair is growing on me for her. Taylor Swift put on her big girl underwear for a change by totally revamping her whole look. Not only did she press out the hair and added a bang,she wore a studded Collette Dinnigan mini with Jimmy Choos. Head turning to say the least. Fergie pulled the feather trend off to perfection in a electric blue number by Falguni. She really knows what works for her,she rarel has an off night. Another tween coming out her shell is Mylie Cyrus. I'm typically not a fan of her choices but last night she swayed me. She wore a winter white Marchesa mini with this uber glamorous flowing train,with an over sized bow on the back that looked both age appropriate and fun! She finished it off with a stupid hot pair of Christian Louboutin heels that completed the look. Jenny McCarthy looked ready to party in a shiny one shoulder Stella McCartney leopard print dress that I was thoroughly impressed with. Two thumbs up to all the ladies(and their stylist) for working magic for this read carpet.

Shoe of the Day


Roberto Cavalli's brand just oozes sexiness to me. To wear this line is to be confident and comfortable in your own skin and know your the sugar honey iced tea! If money were no object,might I suggest this hot number to shimmy the night away in and turn heads all at once. This boot has lots of movement with its metallic fringes and demands attention. The price tag on these babies is a HAUTE 1300.00! Yeah I know...its nice to daydream....

Holiday Parties Express Edition

With Holiday parties and company gatherings about to get into full swing, I wanted to focus on one of my most favorite places to shop Express. This store has been my go to spot for over 10 years for the perfect slack ,sweater, and everything in between. So its no surprise that this store is the focus of where to get the most up to date hot looks for the season.
When you think holiday parties, sparkle, satins and sequins are the first looks we gravitate towards. There festive,fun and very appropriate for the occasion. Those looks transcend all age ranges when worn properly. For the young twenty somethings, short sequins mini's and tunics with thick leggings are the way to go. For the thirty something age range, the sequins sheath dress or the sparkly tank with the shrunken blazer and satin pencil skirt is a fab look that turns heads. Oh yeah and once the drinks start flowin, shed that blazer and hit the dance floor and get it poppin! For my seasoned fashionistas in their 40's and 50's opt for a classic cut v-neck dress in a festive color like red, silver or you cant go wrong with black. Cover your arms with a sequins bolero or cardigan to add some jazz to your look. Stack some stretchable bracelets on both arms and add some sparkle to your ears to bring the attention towards your eyes.
With your makeup, I love a red lip especially during the holidays but if that's your for tee, keep the eyes simple. Likewise if you smoke your eye out with a charcoal grey or a slate,give you lips a glossy shine with a natural,understated tone that gives that "come hither"look.
The holidays are an especially fun time to enjoy your family and coworkers so make the best of it and look your best without breaking the bank by hitting up my spot Express.
Below are some looks that I pulled from their website that I mentioned above....get inspired!!!

Shoe of the Day


Shoes are undoubtedly my weakness and as I surfed the web looking for something to make my heart skip a beat while also being wayy out of my price range I stumbled upon a SICK Alexander McQueen that did just that. Its the Faithful Boot. They come in a variety of colors with different twist to them,but this particular one made my insides tingle. With good purpose too,with a price tag of 1285.00 they better talk to me and keep me warm at night! One day is all I have to say...one day....*day dreamin*

Last night the red carpet dazzled with women of all shapes and sizes last night for this event that took place at Carnegie Hall. This is a very stellar and distinguished event that honors some of the ground breakers and humanitarians that are making a difference. Everyone from newcomers like Janelle Monae,who rocked in her all black ensemble with cape to cap off the look to Gayle King, who looked bright and punchy in an ombre style, A-Line knee lenght dress. Fergie look sizzling in an off the shoulder full lenght slim fitting dress with a killer split that held her in all the right places. Oh yeah and Beverly Johnson still has it going on in a major way might I mention! My favorite look of the night was from Wendy Murdoch who wore a one shoulder red satin dress that had a long sleeve with a beautiful Asian print. She finished the look with a side swept hair do and a bright red lip. Check out her and some of the other stunners of the night. Fierce Overload!

Fashion for EveryBODY Show

Day four of Nashville Fashion Week brought us out for a very worthy cause. Yes it was a fashion show that had a line up of real sized Role models of the city, but it also showed us that you don't have to be a zero to look fierce. This event was to benefit the Eating Disorders Coalition of Tennessee and they have been pulling off this event since 2003. The event came equipped with a pink carpet that everyone rocked including musical talent Katie Armiget and host of the event, Shane Tallant from HGTV and Oxygen Network. The range of models went from tall,short,full figured,slim and pregnant. MEPRagency's own Kia even worked the runway.
Vitamin Water sponsored the event and the whole set up was super cool with bottles of water on every chair. There was also both a live and silent auction that included trips to Hawaii, spa treatments and artwork. Faith and Tim McGraw also auctioned off a guitar which was cool. I love covering events that are for a good cause with a fashion spin on it an this one was no exception! Fun Times!
