Grammy Awards 2012

The 54th Annual Grammy Awards took place Sunday night in LA, and the red carpet did not disappoint. The Grammy's is always my favourite awards show to look forward to. It's an exciting event full of great performances, and amazing red carpet dresses. Here are some of the best looks from the night:

Rihanna brought some serious sex appeal to the Grammy's red carpet in this black Giorgio Armani gown with plunging neckline. She finished off her look with a gorgeous gold Jimmy Choo clutch and Christian Louboutin shoes. I'm on the fence about her new blonde hair though, I think she should go back to her natural colour.

Tayor Swift was one of my favourite looks from the night. She chose this gold beaded Zuhair Murad mermaid gown for the big night, and in my opinion, she looked absolutely beautiful. The dress reminds me of something antique, and very fragile, with so much detailing. Also, I love the open back, and the design of it, it's so unique looking. This dress is a work of art, it's absolutely gorgeous.

Adele, one of the night's big winners, looked beautiful on the red carpet in this black sequin gown by Giorgio Armani. The dress looks great on her, and she looks so happy wearing it. Adele performed her hit song 'Rolling in the Deep' at the show, and totally killed it!

Carrie Underwood was another one of my favourites form Sunday night. She chose this amazing white beaded Rene Caovilla gown. I love the colour, the train, and the open back. I also like that she chose simple hair, and minimal accessories to finish off her look.

I went back and forth with Kelly Rowland's beige Alberta Ferretti gown. In the end, I really like it. It's different, I love the colour, and the embroidery around the bodice is so beautiful. I think she looks great.

I have no idea where Paris Hilton has been lately, or why she was at the Grammy's, but she did look amazing on the red carpet. She chose this Basil Soda gown for the evening, and in my opinion, it's the best I've seen her look. I love how this dress flows, and the tiny gold belt around her waist.


And now for some of the bad...

Nicki Minaj looked like an absolute joke at the awards in this Atelier Versace monstrosity. I'm not sure what she's trying to do with this big red thing. Is it a cape? Is it a parachute? No one will ever know. What I do know: She needs to stop trying so hard. And showing up with a random man dressed as the pope? Really Nicki?

There was some contriversy over Fergie's Jean Paul Gaultier gown, some loved it, and others hated it. I'm with the haters on his one, I don't think underwear should ever be seen at the Grammy Awards. Sorry Fergie.

The 2011 Country Music Awards brought some serious glamour to Nashville! Check out these stars in their red carpet gowns:

Carrie Underwood wore this gold lace and sequin Reem Acra gown with cap sleeves. Drop earrings, bracelet, and Jimmy Choo heels finished off her red carpet look nicely. I also like that she kept her neck bare, allowing the sweetheart neckline show off.

Taylor Swift picked up the trophy for entertainer of the year in a J. Mendel ball gown with long, beautiful train. The icy colour is great on Taylor, and she keeps a simple look by pulling her hair back. Lorraine Schwartz drop earrings and Christian Louboutin heels were all the accessories this dress needed!

Nicole Kidman wore this gorgeous gunmetal silver gown and shoes designed by Jean Paul Gaultier. The strapless column style works great with Nicole's tall, thin frame. Her best accessory? Husband Keith Urban in his tailored grey suit.
