Who, What, Wear: Grammys Edition

images via
The Grammys are their own beast. A seemingly more casual event, no tables with champagne and wine flowing, less intimate in the monstrosity of Staples Center… to say the least, I wasn’t really expecting any huge fashion wins for the evening… but then on E’s coverage before going to commercial, came Rihanna stepping out in regal elegance in the most divine red Alaia gown, long locks and ethereal makeup. I think it’s safe to assume who my best dressed winner was… even her costume changes were marvelous! In a close tie with Ri Ri came Kelly Rowland who also knocked it out of the park. As for Florence Welch, she’s about the only gal I know who can pull of a Givenchy dinosaur inspired dress! Who were your hits and misses for the night?

    Rihanna looked absolutely stunning and I am usually not a fan of her fashion, but she killed it!

    I think Ri Ri was my favorite, and I agree Kelly Rowland looked phenom. Sadly, I think my least favorite was Adele. I love her, but I didn’t think that was the best choice for her…

    Normally I am not a fan of anything Rihanna wears, but she did shut it down last night in that Alaia! And Carrie looked so cute on the carpet as well. Thanks for stopping by my site! You should definitely try to go to IFBCON in September..it’s worth it!

    Totally agree – Rihanna could not have picked a better dress. Like 110% perfect!! Too bad her PDA with Chris Brown was so nauseating. I loved Kelly’s dress too, even though looking too closely makes me a little uncomfortable. Haha but she definitely looked flawless!

    Things were much tamer than I expected them to be (probably because of the “dress code”) but I love love loved Rihanna’s dress. She looked stunning! Now if she would only ditch that last season accessory known as Chris Brown…

    I thought everyone looked particularly good at the Grammy’s! Great hair and make-up too-very laid back but elegant!
