Pop Culture and The Grammy's

I have so much useless pop culture knowledge in my head it is ridiculous. If they ever had a Jeopardy with JUST pop culture questions I would enter, AND win. I love knowing the little tidbits of knowledge and often times I embarrass myself speaking out the things I know. I have a crazy memory and am good with names and numbers. It comes in handy! Watching silly reality shows, reading the tabloids, perusing the web, Twitter, gossip blogs... all make me smarter. Haha. I love being able to watch the awards shows and know all the back stories, who has dated who, how tall some one is and 98% of the time I can guess what designer they are wearing before they say it. I think all of that information has helped my fashion background and cultivate my passion.

With that said I LOVED The Grammy's last night. It was a GREAT show (with the exception of Chris Brown performing TWICE and that train wreck, ridiculous Nicki Minaj performance) and I really enjoyed the variety of performers. Just seeing and hearing Adele warmed my heart. I think Bruno Mars is a fantastic singer and performer, Dave and the Foo Fighters rock my world, I really enjoyed Katy Perry's new song and she didn't sound like nails on a chalkboard singing, Carrie Underwood could not be more beautiful or talented and seeing The Boss and Sir Paul sing and ROCK out at the end was awesome.

As for the FASHION I was definitely drawn to black.

BEST DRESSED: Rihanna
Hands down, sexy as hell, banging body, GORGEOUSNESS!
I am obsessed with the Armani dress she wore and collaborated on.
Not many people have the body to pull that off. I will be praying to GOD every night to look like that for one hour! Holy Bananas!


The plunge, the slit, the back, the thin, tiny straps.
Perfection.

Runner Up #1: Gwyneth Paltrow
This Stella McCartney dress was chic, polished with a slight edge. I loved the cut away's at the waist and how the neckline and back connected. I like the belt and her simple, sleek pony. 
Pure Prettiness.


Runner up #2: Chrissy Teigen
 I have a thing for long sleeved dresses that show off ONE body part. On this dress it is the slit showing off her leg. I think it is simple yet striking. I am also a HUGE fan of really strappy heels. I am always in search of the perfect pair!

One hundred AND nine: J Brand 'Houlihan' cargo skinny pants

On the first season of Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica, I fell in love with a pair of capri cargos in Olive green. Jessica wore them with a pale pink tube top and wedges. I found a pair that were very similar at Old Navy...And I just retired them last year (yes, 7 years later. HEY! They still fit too.) I have seen many celebs wearing the J Brand 'Houlihan' cargo skinnies. And I think I love them just as much as my beloved Old Navy pair. I have blogged multiple time about my love for Olive green. I just keep adding to the list.



This outfit is my absolute favorite



This is my second favorite :)



I love how every celeb makes them their own. They all look different in the same pants. Which outfit is your favorite?

One hundred AND six: RiRi is looking good!

Rihanna takes risks that I NEVER could. I love her edgy fashion sense. She pulls off outfits that would look ridiculous on anyone else. What I love about this outfit is that she mixed different prints and added feminine touches that all look fantastic together.
The hat and the shoes make the outfit. I love the flower on her fedora. And she is wearing Alexander Wang mules in leopard. I love them almost as much as I love the Allah wedges. Her floral Catherine Malandrinp shorts are so fun and flirty. And I love the ruffles on her sleeves. Great outfit!
