Red-Carpet Recap: 2011 American Music Awards

Posted by kgranero 1:03pm GMT

This year's American Music Awards were characterized by liquid metallics and illusionary magic.

Some of my favorite looks included those of Heidi Klum (who proved a silver seductress in a laser-cut Giles sheath), Jennifer Lopez (who oozed romance in an illusionary-inset Zuhair Murad gown with floral embroidering throughout) and Taylor Swift (who sparkled in a quintessentially "Swift" sequined Reem Acra gown).

Selena Gomez (in a punging satin Giorgio Armani gown) and Jennifer Hudson (in a draped Jenny Packham mini dress) added more fuel to the red carpet fire.

Red-Carpet Recap: Versace for H&M Fashion Event

Posted by kgranero 2:43pm GMT

Celebs brought to life the Versace for H&M collection, which hits stores later this month, at a fashion event held in honor of the collaboration last night in New York.

My favorite Versace for H&M looks included those of Jessica Alba (who sparkled in a gold-flecked blouse and full skirt), Jennifer Hudson (who oozed sex appeal in a corseted LBD) and Selma Blair (who popped in a pink shift dress with a metal stud pattern throughout).

Kaylee Defer (in a flirty fringed frock) and Emma Roberts (in a tropical bustier and hot pant number) opted for more playful pieces.

Dare to Wear: Jennifer Hudson

Posted by babu 6:02pm GMT

�

Jennifer Hudson has a rockin' bod and, from what I've seen, a fun personality, so why she opted to wear a "St. Pauli Girl" costume during her recent "Good Morning America" performance (she was serving up beats, not brews) is beyond me.

Hopefully, she'll back bounce with a bright orange bodice next week.

Style Showdown: Kim Kardashian vs. Jennifer Hudson

Posted by babu 12:02pm GMT

Kim Kardashian sizzled in a plunging Alexander McQueen top with heavily embellished, sculpted shoulders at the launch for Unbreakable, the new fragrance by Khloe Kardashian and hubby Lamar Odom.

Jennifer Hudson made a statement in the gladiator-like getup during a performance at this year's Grammy Awards back in February.

While both leading ladies have the confidence to pull off this top, I thought Jennifer's exposed, lace bra looked a little cluttered, so I'm giving this one to Kim.

Style Showdown: Carina Lau vs. Jennifer Lopez

Posted by babu 12:45pm GMT

First Jennifer Hudson, now Carina?! It seems like everyone's taking a cue from J.Lo's style these days!

Hong Kong actress Carina Lau spiced things up in a black and green dress from Gucci's Spring 2011 collection at the LongChamp Flagship Store Opening in Hong Kong.

J.Lo was the first to take the plunge in the dress back in February, when she attended the First Annual UNICEF Women of Compassion Luncheon.

While this dress could do no wrong in my eyes, there's no denying J.Lo did it the justice it truly deserves, so I'm giving this one to her (I also loved her sexy shoe pairing!)

Style Showdown: Jennifer Hudson vs. Jennifer Lopez

Posted by babu 4:11pm GMT

It's a battle of the Jennifers!

Jennifer Hudson wore this cool, leather Chloe dress to perform during Nickelodeon's Upfront presentation just two months after Jennifer Lopez went nude in the same dress for an episode of "American Idol."

While neither of the divas had any trouble pulling off the full-skirted mini marvel, I'm giving this one to J.Lo for her daring shoe choice (she wore leopard-print Christian Louboutin booties), and for getting to the dress first.

Best Dressed at the 2011 Grammy Awards

Posted by babu 5:31pm GMT

Metallic, sexy, feminine, flirty and bold. Each one of these Grammy dresses differs from the others. But the one thing they do have in common is landing a place on our Best-Dressed list!

Heidi Klum in Julien Macdonald: Metallic dresses were one of the major trends of the evening, but the supermodel stood out from the rest of the glittering girls in this curve-hugging sequined gown.

Jennifer Hudson in Versace: We’re the first to admit that J. Hud can do no wrong in our books, but even if we weren’t obsessed with her, we’d still love this asymmetrical gown with sparkling bodice. We’re secretly hoping a designer will jump on the knock-off bandwagon and create a version of this confection for those of us who can’t afford the real deal.

Nicole Kidman in Jean Paul Gaultier: Mrs.Urban proves that you don’t need to look flashy or show some serious skin to make a fashion statement at the Grammy Awards. This petal print straight-from-the runway gown had us at…howdy?

Kelly Osbourne in Tadashi Shoji: Kelly Osbourne on our Best-Dressed list? Yup! In a frilly lavender frock? Uh-huh! There’s something about this flirty and feminine design that spoke to us. We’re just as shocked about it as you are!

Keri Hilson in Basil Soda: Hilson looked electric in this strapless blue mini with silver detailing. It has a certain superhero quality to it, and yet it doesn’t look too costume-y.

Don't forget to check out more photos from the big evening, including our Worst-Dressed list and our Hair Hits and Misses gallery.

Style Showdown: Jennifer Hudson vs. Blake Lively

Posted by babu 11:46am GMT

Jennifer Hudson looked positively polished at the 2010 Grammy Awards, where she wore the same black Victoria Beckham sheath worn by Blake Lively back in October at the 2009 Angel Ball.

While I love the posh mini on both ladies, I prefer how Blake opted out of tights and chose heels with a purple toe. Jennifer's dress loses definition when blurred with black tights and solid black pumps.
