Happy Monday! :)
Last night was music's biggest night: the 54th Annual Grammy Awards!
And as promised, here is a red carpet recap:
Adele -
You guys probably know that I am a big fan, so it's no surprise that Adele is #1 on my list. ;)
She looked stunning in this custom black sequined Giorgio Armani gown that features three-quarter length sleeves and a cinched waist.
I love love love her hair and makeup -- she is so rocking those red lips!
I love love love her hair and makeup -- she is so rocking those red lips!
Adele is unstoppable!
She sang Rolling In The Deep as beautifully as ever and accepted a standing ovation with grace and genuine humility (none of that annoying always-surprised look Taylor Swift has).
Adele totally deserves all 6 Grammy awards she received last night! :D
Katy Perry -
Katy Perry is dealing with her divorce from Russell Brand in a very fashionable way!
She turned heads in her pale blue beaded Elie Saab gown and $2 million worth of Norman Silverman jewels.
Lily Aldridge -
What a gorgeous mom-to-be!
The Victoria's Secret model chose the perfect dress to show off her baby bump -- a chiffon long-sleeved, floral print Gucci gown with a plunging neckline.
Paris Hilton -
I am not always a fan of Paris' fashion choices, but she looks really beautiful in this embroidered white Basil Soda dress.
Her hair, makeup, and accessories = flawless!
Gwyneth Paltrow -
Clean, simple, classic, beautiful!
Kelly Osbourne -
I am not a fan of hers, but I do think she looks beautiful in this sequined one-shoulder Tony Ward gown.
Her hair and makeup are nicely done too. :)
Kelly Rowland -
Oh wow, two Kellys in a row! ;)
I am loving Kelly Rowland's custom blush Alberta Ferretti gown. The embroidered detail is so beautiful!
She looks great!
Rihanna -
This black custom Giorgio Armani gown is waaaaayyyyy better than what she wore last year.
So kudos, Rihanna!
Oh, and her gold Neil Lane accessories are perfect!
Carrie Underwood -
Carrie looks beautiful and this white long-sleeved Gomez Garcia dress is pretty, but I just don't think there's anything extraordinary about this look. :/
Maybe Carrie's black Swarovski clutch doesn't go too well with the dress?
Jessie J -
Jessie J usually wears wacky outfits on the red carpet, so I was happy to see her in this relatively simple metallic Julien Macdonald dress. :)
Taylor Swift -
I didn't like this look at first, but it's growing on me.
I think this gold Zuhair Murad gown is beautiful and I'm glad Taylor picked it.
Yay for trying something new!
Julianne Hough -
Julianne's black strapless Kaufman Franco gown, her hair, and her makeup -- basically the whole look -- is just kind of "Blah", in my opinion.
Fergie -
I am so not feeling this Jean Paul Gaultier Couture gown... I just don't think it's right for a dress to show what you're wearing underneath (unless you're at the beach or by the pool, of course, haha!). ;)
Nicki Minaj -
I don't get what the whole point of this is. It's not funny at all.
This red carpet appearance and her performance were just plain offensive and disrespectful.
Anyway, that's it for my 2012 Grammy Awards red carpet recap. :)
Whose look did you like the best? Whose look did you not like at all?
Were you able to watch the awards show?
Have a fantastic week, everyone!

I loved most of the dresses.
ReplyDelete:D
DeleteI love Adele! And I'm not a fan at all of Nicki Minaj's outfit and performance. In fact, I think I'm just starting to dislike her more and more each time I read something about her :/ x
ReplyDeletei love adele too! :) and yeah, i am disliking nicki minaj more and more. this whole thing is so disrespectful.
DeleteI really didn't understand what Nicki Minaj was trying to achieve...I didn't get her look at all! I was also torn about Rihanna's look..........I don't think there was anything that wow about it. Great choices though! xo
ReplyDeletei don't understand it either! and yeah, there wasn't anything wow about rihanna's look but it's way better than what she wore last year. ;)
DeleteLots of sweet gowns, but that last two..of all nights to wear something like that. Ugh.
ReplyDeletei knoooow! ugh.
DeleteWOOOT WOOTT!!! (: GO ADELEE!!!!!
ReplyDelete:D :D :D
Deletei love adele!! she's so beautiful and classy. setting a high bar for the others.
ReplyDeletei totally agree! :)
DeleteI was waiting for this post! Adele was so amazing last night!! Sweeping her categories and giving a killer performance. Oh man, I am so happy for her.
ReplyDeletesame here, i am so so so happy for her! i love adele! :D
DeleteI wasn't too impressed with any of the dresses, but gwyneth looked pretty great. Adele too.
Deleteyup, there weren't many impressive looks but gwyneth and adele both looked fantastic! :)
DeleteAdele looked stunning! She's rocking those red lips. But I think brown hair suits her better. And Rihanna dyed her hair blond! This is the first time I see it, looks good! (Almost) everyone looks stunning, but I'm not a fan of Fergie's dress. And the last one is really weird..
ReplyDeletehaha yeah, i think rihanna looks good blonde.
DeleteI love Adele! She looked stunning last night and she never disappoints. I'm so glad she has her voice back. As far as Nicki Minaj goes, I agree that she was offensive.
ReplyDeletei agree, she never disappoints, she is so incredibly talented! i love how she doesn't need any gimmicks to make people see how talented she is. :)
DeleteAdele looked gorgeous! And as always, Nicki Minaj looked ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteyup, she looked so ridiculous, it's getting old. anyways, yay for adele! ;)
DeleteAdele and Katy won me over! Love your post!
ReplyDeleteyay, glad you loved it!
Deleteadele was my fave too. She is a true talent.
ReplyDeletei agree! :)
Deletelove your picks!!!rihanna was so beautiful and sexy!!!

DeleteI think taylor looked fantastic! And i am happy for adele, she's awesome!

i'm not sure what nicki minaj is doing either...
Deleteloved Carrie and, surprisingly, Paris!
ReplyDeletexoxo navy & orange
i was surprised at how beautiful paris' look was too!
DeleteSome of those dresses? They are to die for!
ReplyDeleteI agree, Adele looked very pretty (I'm not her biggest fan, but I really like her, she has an amazing voice), and didn't like Nicki Minaj either (some people just want to attract attention). Anyway, I think Katy Perry and Carrie Underwood looked so beautiful, although my favourite was Gwyneth, that girl always looks flawless
ReplyDelete♥Marley
i agree, gwyneth always looks so flawless!
DeleteHappy Valentines day!
ReplyDeletehappy valentine's day! :)
DeleteGotta love Adele!:) As for red carpet looks, I loved Paris and Kelly Osbourne.
ReplyDeleteLove, Belle
they both looked great! :)
DeleteLoving the looks of Paris, Gwyneth, and Kelly Osbourne :)
ReplyDeleteand I agree with you about Nicki Minaj... don't understand
why people have to do that, very disrespectful ><
i love their looks too! and aahhh, i don't even want to get started on nicki minaj...
DeleteI agree with you 100% Nicki Minaj is very disrespectful and annoying. I've never been a fan so it really doesn't matter to me but it is so dumb to watch her be "unique"
ReplyDeleteI loved Rhianna's dress and hair. Gorgeous.
i knooooow! i was never a fan of hers, but this whole ridiculous thing just made me dislike her more and more.
DeleteI'm fan about Kelly Osbourne and Carrie Underwood's dresses!
ReplyDeleteFabulous!
♥, xxx
kelly did look great! :)
DeleteGreat recap, girl! I liked a lot of them, but my faves are Adele, Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, and Kelly Rowland. I didn't like Fergie's and Nicki Minaj was just plain annoying.
ReplyDeleteLots of love, B
