Surprise! It's a Special Edition AMA (American Music Awards) Hit, Miss and theGray Edition!



Hi all--so I finally revealed my several months old blog entry--but I planned to write one on the AMAs as well! I always see these "Hit and Miss" articles and I figured " Hey, why not me too?" So here it is. But with a little twist--sometimes there is gray in a world of black and white I've discovered . So there is also a "The Gray" Section for those who didn't go all the way. 

I want to start with the Gray, then move on to the Hits and Misses. That way hopefully these Red Carpet girls can recover properly!

The Gray

#1 Katy Perry

Dear Katy Perry, I love your fun, bubbly , unique and 1950s -Esque sense of style. Sexy, flirty and fun is you. But the frock you wore tonight was sooooo NOT a  complete Hit to me at all. Or a complete miss. It is somewhere in that in between world of the Gray in Fashion land. This is a place that Fashion Mavens like you should never be Ms. Katy Perry.

She donned this strapless Oscar De la Renta gown. It was long , elegant and highlighted with white polka dots and pink and red  flowers. Normally, a dress like that would fit the typical Pin -Up Girl Katy Perry dress code---except the length was too much! There were no hot, silky smooth legs! No curvy body , no trademark perky bosom, no high heels to be visibly seen.

Also, I didn't like how it looked on her honestly. It was too dark, too drab. It had the makings of a Pin Up girl look, except it was missing that shortness, that sexiness, that Katy Perry  "OOMP". But then again, the same can be said for Lady Gaga this year who was dressed super modest as she arrived on a Human Horse. So this is formal Katy Perry. Not my most favorite look from her but it is a look of her's none the less.




#2 Naya Rivera



Ms. Naya Rivera soon to be Ms. Naya Rivera -Big Sean--whoa. You turn up the sexy volume in this dress. Looking at the wide open plunging neckline of this Michael Kors dress, we can see that she is a grown woman and a force to be reckoned it. Looking at her, I kept seeing a younger Jennifer Lopez because this is so Jennifer Lopez's style. That being said, because it is so Jennifer Lopez, I fear it ages Naya by at least ten years. And there's no need for her to grow up that fast. She's  sexy and mature, but too mature. Her Glee co-star managed to be both sexy and youthful at the same time. I personally feel that her dress needed a little bit of that balance. So it goes in the Gray area for me. But there's no doubt that she is super hot in this dress.



#3 Kesha

Kesha. You were looked over after cameras rushed to you on the red carpet. Why?  Because you came there looking like Lady Gaga. And you disappointed them when they found out you werent the GaGa. Hello Kesha, you are freaking KESHA. You are supposed to look like you are returning from a party at 7am and you slept on the street and you reek of alcohol and your make up is all smudged up like crazy. Or look like you're going to the sickest rave ever with tons of GLITTER.  Aka,  you are supposed to look like a Hot Mess.  Instead you went for formal wear but you did it as if you were Lady Gaga herself--hench the confusion of the paparazzi. You all gave us a heart attack ! You can look fancy just don't make it look like someone else that is ten times more famous than you are! Please readjust your wardrobe and make yourself Red Carpet fab in your own fancy Kesha style. This look isn't you or so hot at all.

The Hits

#1 Taylor Swift

The moment her golden Jimmy Choo gladiator feet went strutting down the Red Carpet in this little number it was obvious that she had the best dress of the night! There is NO doubt that Ms. Taylor Swift stole the show tonight in this Julien Macdonald  fiery golden mini dress . The sequins created a mesmerizing pattern that we simply couldn't stop staring at ! The faux nude triangle in the lower neckline area was a naughty, extra touch of sexy! The shortness gave her the power to show off those long model-esque legs. The gold gladiator heels she wore were just the little touch she needed to this glittery dress. Perfect 10! Kudos to you, in this dress you were definitely some real trouble,trouble, trouble!






#2  Zendaya



Zendaya, oh what a beauty you are! If I had to pick a runner up to Taylor Swift, it would be you my dear! Wearing a gorgeous all white Donna Karan piece, she looks like a real live goddess! With her gorgeous bare shoulders and a one-sleeve draping that falls softly across her body she looks both age appropriate and super chic! I can't tell you how much I am in love with this outfit!



#3 Lady Gaga




Uh -oh--did someone say goddess? Well Lady Gaga decided to get her Goddess look on to in this lovely Versace Lilac colored gown. Adding to its Goddess appeals it also features glam silver accented jewelry chains in the bodice area. It was perfectly and tastefully fitted on her--she was so elegant and modest looking . Oh, and let's not forget the whole arriving on a Human Horse thing, lol. But still her long cascading hair, her soft natural-looking makeup--it all screams Goddess. Great Job Gaga.



#4 Ciara



Oh yes. Ciara, this dress is epic! It plays with both nude and lace on a whole new level and its so creative that it's a clear winner! It's so runway and chic that I am genuinely impressed! She is wearing a gorgeous J  . Mendel dress! It's just the right amount of lace to cover up all the naughty parts and still, it has a sophistication to in spite of all the skin showing. Love it!






 #5 Ariana Grande

I love the way---the way you tried soooo hard to pull off the whole glam 50s-60s girl crooner look. Ariana. I love you. I love your awkward looks, your tone, your incredibly mature voice. You have the voice and body to be reckoned with.




Wait. I lied. You didn't "try" Ariana. You were dazzling in this Dolce and Gabbana gown. You really nailed the look--I believed it. This dress fit you like a glove! Seeing you perform in this dress wasn't even necessary to prove you are the 50s -60s Hollywood starlet crooner. You are one in a million. Keep crooning baby!


#6 Jenna Ushkowitz


Well hello hello you total hottie. I am in LOVE with your look! In this lovely coral Raoul dress, you show just a tiny bit of cleavage and a well fitted bodice. You look fresh, youthful and sexy! You are beyond amazing looking, I love it! Ms. Jenna Ushkowitz, please keep it up!


#7 Daisy Fuentes


Ah Ms. Daisy Fuentes! What a breathe of fresh air. Your look on the Red Carpet is Timeless Beauty. It's a sleeveless beaded ivory top with a silky Mermaid style skirt that is effortlessly beautiful. It's a look that can be both vintage and modern and still look amazing in any era! This Tadashi dress is a hit, and so are you Daisy Fuentes!




 Misses

#1 Rihanna


Hey Rihanna. Nice half dress. NOT. Hello. This fails in so many ways. It doesn't go together at all. It literally makes no sense at all. I was feeling the skirt sort of , but the top makes it trashy. So in all honesty there is no redeeming quality.  It doesn't even matter who it is that you are wearing. Please put on some clothes Ri-Ri. Or take it all off. Cause this isn't working for me at all. Thanks, K bye!




#2 Sarah Silverman


Um ok, this dress is all kinds of horrible on Ms. Sarah Silverman. First of all, she is as pale as a ghost. She should never be caught dead wearing this neon yellow color. It whitens you out too much--in spite of all the obvious bronzer you sprayed yourself with. Also, the cut of the dress is awkward and  completely out of proportion. Were you serious with this dress? Part of me thinks no since you are also a comedian Silverman. In that case, hardy har har. You totally got me. That was funny, you wearing this awful dress. Good one there.



#3 Jennifer Hudson



Ms. Jennifer Hudson, seriously? You lost all of that weight to squeeze yourself into a tight fitted dress in an awful color that doesn't do your body or skin tone justice? Oh no. No. no. Total Miss. You look like tangerine that was peeled that someone tried to put the skin back onto again. And the inside of the dress is pink--really? The deadly orange and pink combination color?! I don't know what you were thinking when you slipped into this little number, but it did you and your looks NO justice at all. Completely unflattering.
We know you can do better.


#4 Carly Steele


Omg. Wtf? Did a Seven year old  make this?  The stitching is awful. The color is bad. The patterns conflict with each other. Ugly  bad, really ugly and super bad! End of Story!


#5 Lil Mama 



No. No, no, no , no , no. Oh Lil Mama, y?  You look like u raided Lady Gaga's closet and snatched out a random dress and one of her wigs on your way out. It's a nice fitted bodice...black is a good color on you...green may be too...but when you put it all together with that sci-fi capey thing you have going on... it's just one big huge HOT MESS. And by a hot mess I mean it looks like you're legitly wearing a Halloween costume. Even Lady Gaga would rethink this look but you wore it proudly. Oy vey! Total  miss hon.



Conclusion

Hey guys wrote this randomly, only selected a few dresses from the bunch that I HAD to comment on. Let me know what you think! And remember to get some Sugar and Spice in your life!

FiestaProm.com : Find Your Dream Designer Dress for your Dream Price!

I'm Baaaaaack!

Hi all! I know, long time no see right?! I've been super, duper busy so I have neglected writing this fashion blog, but never once have I ever taken my eye off of the trending styles from Spring to Summer! As Summer has already loudly and beautifully rolled in, the Prom Season is swiftly coming to a close. Still,  I must write a review about a clothing boutique that most notably carries some of the best Prom Dresses out there. This clothing boutique is Fiesta Prom! I chose to write a review on this store and to include it in my trendiest stores series because it carries a large inventory of dazzling, stunning dresses that most people aren't even aware of!

This clothing boutique's physical location makes it a true diamond in the rough as it glows in a sea of many ho-hum boring,inexpensive dresses . Fiesta Prom proudly carries a large inventory of designer gowns like Sherri Hill, Jovani,  La Femme, Terani, Tony Bowls, Mori Lee and more. Most people are shocked to see designer, gorgeous dresses when they walk into the store--and they should be--hence Fiesta Prom being a true "diamond in  the rough". Not only that, but Fiesta Prom offers these designer gowns at prices that people would fight each other for if they even knew about them!

What They've Got that No One Else Does!

Look at the ever stylish Paris Hilton strutting her stuff in Sherri Hill 2900 in the stunning color of silver.
 The Glam Gladiator look is SO her!




Bella Thorne sporting Sherri Hill 2814! So chic!
For starters, Fiesta Prom has a wide selection of dresses and gowns that were worn by many well-known celebrities . They have a selection of dresses from La Femme that are literally physically labeled with a tag as being apart of the "Dancing With the Stars" franchise--yet people walk on by these glam outfits as if they are worthless rags. When I started going through the store inventory  I was shocked at what I discovered.  I saw dresses that were worn by Katy Perry, Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Hayden Panettiere , Selena Gomez, Zendaya Coleman, Bella Thorne, Paris Hilton, Carrie Underwood, Miranda Lambert,
 Claudia Lee, Casssie Scerbo, Brook Burke, Jessica Clark, Kim Kardashian, Kylie and Kendall Jenner and more! That was when I  realized that this place was a wondrous gold mine with precious treasures! Not only that--the sales prices that FiestaProm.com offers you are insanely awesome!

Whether you love her or you hate her, Snooki still occasionally wears cute little numbers-- and the dazzling Sherri Hill 2226 is most definitely one of them!


Just to give you a taste of what they have, how much it's worth and how much you save when you purchase from FiestaProm.com. I will be talking about three lovely dresses! So let's go over some of their current gorgeous dresses in stock and the sale prices applied to them:

Sherri Hill 1403 in the color Royal. Simply Stunning!
1) Sherri Hill 1403. Look familiar? It should, 'cause Selena Gomez rocked Sherri Hill 1403 to the max as she belted out her beautiful tunes! Sherri Hill 1403 is sexy, cute and above all--extremely unique! The V-Neck style bodice is decorated with many shards of  glass collectively surrounded by intricate beading which creates a stunning "broken glass effect". It's so daring. So different. So Sherri Hill!
Sherri Hill 1403 in nude on the gorgeous Selena Gomez--and FiestaProm.com sells this lovely piece for much less! Work the Scene , Selena !


The fact that the bodice is fitted as if it were a corset gives it that extra hint of sexy--girls, never underestimate  the sexiness of a corset! The irony is that the corset was used in the Victorian Era during  a time when sexuality was hushed up and tied down...just like a corset did to a woman's body! But to this day it is one of the sexiest things that a woman could ever wear! But I digress..back to Sherri Hill 1403!


Beyond the fitted bodice waistband is a bouncy, soft skirt that is slightly curled at the hem lines . The finished look is polished to a T--it's the perfect dress for a sexy young woman who wants to hold onto her intrigue and youthfulness just a little bit longer! This dress is normally priced at $450, but FiestaProm.com has it on sale for ONLY $350. Whoa. Big whoa. Prior to their massive clearance sale they were selling it for $400--which was such a steal  since it was still $50 off the original price! That kind of sale is amazing--but unfortunately people who are looking for deals on designer dresses and designer gowns have never ever heard of Fiesta Prom or their website FiestaProm.com !! Btw, you can tots buy Sherri Hill 1403 at this seriously discounted price here : http://fiestaprom.com/index.php?route=product/product&filter_name=1403&product_id=67


2)
Terani 35070C. Sultry, short and stunning!

This is Terani 35070C . It's a short, glorious dress. Wondering where you've seen it before? Why, on the lovely Gossip Girl's star Blake Lively of course! Blake is well known for wearing only the most fashionable ensembles around and wearing them well. She does this to perfection when she slipped into Terani 35070C!

The beautiful Blake Lively keeping up with Gossip Girl and wearing the trendiest clothing!
 Here she is wearing Terani 35070C and showing off those famous long gorgeous legs!

We don't blame the beautiful Blake Lively for donning this Terani dress for her special occasion--it's so pretty! The bodice is fitted and explodes into a lovely embroidered flower pattern that extends upwards into a strap that is  cleverly embellished with that same flower pattern. This interesting bodice then turns into a black feathered skirt that is short, A-line and stunning!

FiestaProm.com took the normal price of this dress from $470 to only $250!!Whoa, so basically you can own a dress that was worn by Blake Lively for over 40% of the retail price? Um, YES please!  Do you see what I mean? Btw--you can purchase this dress from FiestaProm.com here: http://fiestaprom.com/index.php?route=product/product&filter_name=terani&product_id=568



3)

Sherri Hill 2408. What a gorgeous weaving of coins
and sequins! Plus it's fitted nicely too!

Sherri Hill   2408 . It's a  lovely dress that is covered in spirals of sequins and golden coins like a beautiful tapestry! It's fitted bodice and low cut length  makes it sexy and simple all at the same time! It makes any gal look stunning without trying too hard!

And it's the dress that country star singer Miranda Lambert ( also wife of the Voice Judge Blake Sheldon) decided to wear for her photo shoot of a 2011 Country Weekly photo shoot! It's great to see this lovely dress splashed across the cover! Seen in many other Sherri Hill dresses such as Sherri Hill 1429
Miranda Lambert  in
Sherri Hill 1429 w/hubby
Blake Shelton at this year's
2013 Country Music Awards
(CMAs)
Miranda Lambert wears them well and they make her look so gorgeous!

FiestaProm.com is selling this dress waaay below it's original cost--originally $350--now it's only $150! It's a huge markdown from the original price value and is still a very IN dress! You can purchase this dress in  a variety of colors while it lasts here: http://fiestaprom.com/index.php?route=product/product&filter_name=2408&product_id=105


I still can't believe Fiesta Prom marked the dresses down so low, but you know how I love to pay less for more! So I'm not looking the gift horse in the mouth!^_^


Conclusion

Yay! I'm so glad that I stumbled onto FiestaProm.com! They have just want I want the way I want it and how much I want to spend! They have all the best designers from Sherri Hill to La Femme--all at their finger tips! Why do I mention Sherri Hill dresses so much in my examples you ask? Because Sherri Hill is one of the most popular, gorgeous and most diverse evening dress-producing company out there! If  someone needs a prom dress, pageant dress, evening dress or just a clubbing dress--they usually run straight to Sherri Hill! You can go from Rocker Chic to Vintage Goddess when you slip into one Sherri Hill dress to another. I love how they cater to every type of girl out there with every line they make every year! Also more than 90% of the inventory of Fiesta  Prom is Sherri Hill. AKA, FiestaProm.com has many diverse dresses that can fit any kind of girl!

I will occasionally blog and blog more about the dresses I love that Fiesta Prom carries, but for right now, I just wanted to clue you guys in on this place! And btw--if you don't live in New York or the USA--they ship to every state and internationally too! So you can benefit from their major sales on some of the most gorgeous designer dresses around! Well, I've gotta go now guys! Keep looking fab, and as always, remember to get some Sugar and Spice in your life!  ^_^
