Don't look away...

I've realized that I probably won't have an outfit post for you guys until I'm home for Thanksgiving, so I'm sorry about that. I just wanted to get through these last couple of days because I am so close to going home. I basically only have 24 hours before I'm home. Maybe I should start actually packing instead of refreshing my Tumblr dash. Smiles.

I thought I would post some celebrity looks from this past week that I loved, a sort of week in fashion if you will. Here are some of my favorite looks.

1. Emma Stone in Burberry Prorsum
CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Awards in New York City
Okay, so I thought this was really gorgeous on her. It may not be like an "Oh my god" fashion statement, but it's pretty and polished, which is good. Also the fact that it was Emma Stone wearing the dress helped. The color combination looked great with her skin tone and her hair. The whole thing also makes a great holiday look that's not the usual red.

2. Kristen Stewart in Zuhair Murad
UK Premiere of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 in London
More Zuhair Murad for our KStew! This was one of my favorites out of Paris Fashion Week, I even posted it in last week's inspiration. But okay, you can see how happy she is that all this Twilight business is over (I mean, I still love it and saw it at midnight, but shh). Before the premieres, all of her looks were very proper and lady-like, but once the movie started opening, suddenly it was like "Here's a look at my ass guys!" Love love loved it.

3. Gwen Stefani in Balmain
American Music Awards
I'm in love with this. Just basically. It's the perfect mix of rocker and high fashion, which is essentially Gwen Stefani. She looked so comfortable compared to all of the dresses that walked by. This was definitely my favorite of the night.

4. Kristen Stewart in Elie Saab
German Premiere of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 in Berlin
Yes I know she's on here twice but come on, it was the week of Twilight, and she basically owned this last week. Coming to a close with the world tour, she did not disappoint. I have to say this movie's promotion outfits for Kristen were my favorite. I mean, there are always going to be those slight misses, but I think she's showing that she's learning in the fashion world. This gold number she wore was just a knockout for me. It was a perfect mix between wow and sophisticated.

See you guys soon!

At first sight and it's real...

It's that time again everyone! An Inspiration Wednesday.

I feel like I haven't done one in forever but I'm finally doing one and I'm super happy.

This week's Inspiration Wednesday is about one of my favorite experiences ever, and that is PROM. My senior prom was amazeballs. I blogged about it here. It has almost been two years since then and sometimes I actually miss it. If I got to go to prom every year for the rest of my life, I would be a very happy lady.

I feel like prom is that one day where you can express the way you dress and show off a different side of you that not a lot of people might know about. People at my high school only found out I had a fashion blog because of prom and I'm glad it happened that way. And plus, it's a night where you get to dress up and look all pretty-like and who doesn't love that? Exactly.

There are different prom trends every year but I don't think people should listen to those. For my prom, I knew I wanted to look different and not have that stereotypical dress that another person might end up wearing too. I thought, what would I wear to the Golden Globes? as cheesy as that sounds.

I found a dress when I wasn't looking for one and when I had no idea what I wanted my dress to look like. But it was expensive, so my amazing aunt/seamstress took a look at a picture of it and made me my own version of it and now I have a one-of-a-kind dress hanging up in my room somewhere. Smiles.

You should stick to what you love and what looks good on your body. But if you need help getting started, I have some suggestions.

1. Be bold.

There is so much you can do to stand out of the regular prom crowd. I went for a color that no one else was wearing and it was great. But that's not all you can do. There are metallics and sequins and big floofy things that can give your dress that extra oomph.

2. Go for the nude.

In a sea of safe black, a champagne-y nude color really stands out. This color can make you look and feel sexy and sweet at the same time. If you're not quite sure about a super bold color or a big ass flowery ruffle on your chest, then this is a good choice.

3. Trust the black.

Yes, I might be contradicting myself a little bit with this one, but sometimes you just have to have that black dress. My junior prom dress was black but it was so different that I had to have it. Basically what I'm saying with this one is, you can wear black, but make sure it blows any bright sequined number out of the water.

So anyway, super jealous of you lucky gals going to prom soon. Hope to see some posts about it. Smiles.

Also a birthday shout out to my bester honeybee, Eddie, who I love a crap ton. Smiles.

Sometimes I wish for falling...

So Eclipse is upon us.

I no longer look forward to seeing how well the movies are done anymore but just want to see what the creators have come up with every time.

What I do look forward to is what the cast wears to the premiere.

The three leads did not disappoint.

I actually liked Kristen Stewart's white backless Elie Saab dress. A lot of people didn't. I love any Elie Saab. Simple as that. As far as the men go, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner in their Gucci - very nice. Fell in love with RPattz even more when I saw him in the maroon. Taking risks is sexy.
