A Re-post: Red Carpet Reviews - 2013 American Music Awards

Another post of mine that was a write up for Orlando Fashion Week Magazine.  It was published there previously.  If you missed it, I'm sharing it again here on my blog for the first time, with some edits for relevance of course curvy divas. A writer's work is never done! Let me know which celebrity wore your favorite style!


Did you watch last year's AMAs? Me too!  It was one of the best with my favorite Mr. Worldwide, Pitbull as host.  Did you catch the fashion that walked the red carpet?  No? Well, pull up a chair and I'll fill you in.

 At the 2012 award show, Christina Aguilera was beautiful in all her curvyness in a Pamella Roland dress, unfortunately, she went overboard on the suntan lotion.  Last year, she showed off a much leaner physique in a white Maria Lucia Hohan cut-out dress with a high split on the side.  Her shoes were Christian Louboutin peep-toe and I loved her pave jewelry.

The next look, a white Versace Tuxedo pantsuit, was a knock-out for Miley Cyrus, in my opinion. After the tumulteous year of having her looks and style in not so great reviews she wore this edgy look well.  By not wearing a shirt, she received a lot of misses from some reviewers but I said, "You go Miley"!

Rihanna's look was definitely her.  It was definitely a combination of syles with the lace see-through fishtail skirt and a bandeau bra top.  And yes, the Doubie styled hair I did an entire article dedicated to that look!

My favorite look of the night was Jordin Sparks! Her black and gold leather top dress with gladiator heels, hair and makeup were perfect!

Jennifer Hudson rocked it in a bright hued (Tangerine) dress from Dior. Her hi-lo dress was an asymmetrical cut.

Lady Antebellum's front-woman, Hilary Scott had me smiling from ear to ear with her ensemble. The curvy diva rocked it!

The men were looking very dapper last night, some dressed in coordinated colors such as One Direction:

 Or in urban street look like Rapper Nelly, cool and casual in his grey long sleeved graphic sweatshirt and jeans.

Wearing Red

It's Valentine's Day again and I'm sure many of you curvy divas are wondering what to wear tonight?  Some of us have plans, but others will keep it low keyed at home...or not! Whatever you do curvy divas, I found some great suggestions on Elle.com!  They featured RED , in everything, accessories, clothing, make up, even underwear!  Here are my favorite picks! I LOVE this dress! The silhouette is beautiful and will flatter most body types!  I checked and this item doesn't go larger than a size 12 by the designer, and they are out of this style at Neiman Marcus, however, it's a great look and you can find something similar elsewhere!  If it is too long, find a shorter length.

This beautiful dress is also not available in larger sizes. It goes to...

How to Wear Glitter in the Daytime

Have you ever worn sequin aka glitter?  It is pretty much a trend in fashion these days.  Glitter is worn mostly at nights and for real special and dressier occasions. But not so today curvy divas. Glitter can also be worn during the day!  I've worn glitter during the day time before and I try to make it look as understated as possible!  You don't need too much accessories when you wear glitter.  It is pretty much how you put your outfit together! On Elle.com Amanda Fitzsimons interviewed designer Marissa Webb who is known for using sequins during the daytime!  Amanda wanted to know if this look (daytime glitter) can really work? Marissa said it definitely can and thinks it is in how shine the sequinned (or glittered) garment that choose to wear is. It is not just in the size of the beadings at all! I tend to agree with her.   I don't think a really shiny sequinned garment on its own, would work for daytime. That would definitely be overkill! ...
