Lovely in Lace

Awards season is upon us and the red carpets are teaming with gorgeous ensembles, with lace being a favorite. We have seen it on the runways since mid 2011 and now in 2012 it is everywhere.


When I used to think of lace the first thing that popped into my mind was my granny's horrid tablecloths that covered her ancient ball and claw dining room and coffee tables. The thought of it gave me a bad taste in my mouth but now lace has taken over and boy am i glad it did.


Gone are granny's tacky tablecloths and sexy, sultry lace has arrived

 

Runways are full of the feminine fabric 

Celebs have caught on to the trend and are holding on with dear life. Some show us exactly how to pull of this chic look

 

And some show us how to get it horribly wrong...

Either way the trend seems to be here to stay

Green with Envy

Green has hit the runway and every red carpet (worth being on) with full force. Whether you are envious or wouldn't be seen dead in this unusual choice, however, is entirely up to you. If you are bold enough to try out this sensual shade make sure you stick to a few simple rules:


1. Choose the right green - you dont want to look like you're wrapped in seaweed nor do you want to glow in the dark

Good Green

Bad, bad green!

2. Choose the right length for your body - green is already a daring choice so don't over do it

Victoria gets it so wrong with this
tiny mess of a mini dress

Rihanna gets it right with  this floor
length off the shoulder gown, showing
just enough skin

3.Accessorize correctly - keep it minimal and keep it cool

Kate Moss looks fab in this gorgeous green maxi dress
with a funky black leather jacket

4. If you're going to a special event keep it elegant, ladies - it's easy to look like a prom queen gone wrong

Madonna shows us exactly
how NOT to wear green to
a special event

Angelina and Mila look absolutely
stunning in their floor length gowns

5. Men can wear green too! yes, it is possible and sometimes it looks damn good 

Pair up a dark green shirt with a black blazer and you have a winner
