LiME's 2011 Oscar Fashion Report

Okay, I LOVE the red carpet!! There are always so many incredibly creative and colourful dresses to drool over!! Let's get down to business:

How classy did Reese look at the Oscars??? I swear, the moment I saw her Barbie popped into my head.  The dress, the hairstyle...I LOVE it. The contrasting black and white give this dress a little bit of oomph and I adore that she isn't decked out in jewelry. Less can be more!

Cate Blanchett's Givenchy Couture dress is phenomenal in my opinion. I feel like it is getting a lot of backlash because it's different and not the typical Oscar gown. I love that because the shoulders are structured and the rest of the dress is extremely feminine, the gown has a fearless yet elegant vibe to it. The purple beading is lovely and I even like the yellow beading at the top because it brings the attention from the design of the dress back up to her face. Big win for Cate!!!

What was Jennifer Hudson THINKING? A) I HATE orange dresses on the red carpet, blech...too clashy. B) I just dislike orange in general, I find it the least flatting colour. C) This dress is HUGE, she looks like she is going a ball and she was just a presenter. Sorry JHud, you look like a bright orange traffic cone to me.

Woah, is that Cruella de Vil? No! It's Sharon Stone! I'm practically at a loss for words... her eyeliner is all wrong for this occasion and her dress looks like she is wearing a dead animal on her shoulder. Anyone with me on this one? THUMBS DOWN

THIS IS HANDS DOWN MY FAVOURITE GOWN OF THE NIGHT!! Wowowow, Mila Kunis looks ravishing in her lilac Elie Saab dress. I am totally drooling over the lace tiering, lavender chiffon and understated waist ribbon. This is definitely one of her best colours. The dress isn't too sexy even though you can see some thigh-action. Also, even though the necklace is pretty low, she kept her 'girls' in check and they didn't overpower her. LOVE ITTTTT

What are your thoughts on my oscar picks? Hit or miss? Let me know if you have any other favourites!

You'll Never Believe It!!!

Remember my last few posts about the half-moon manicure and the knit dresses with tassels? At Rihanna's recent birthday bash, not only was she rocking the gorgeous black and white half-moons, she was wearing one of those cut out dresses!!!!!
Do we know what's HOT or what???

Summer Knits: Sexy & Quirky

Well...this is different, right? First off, I adore the white dress; it reminds me of the new movie 'The Black Swan'. The torso is knitted together beautifully and it has some great short accent feathers that sway when you walk...sexy! While the other designs are a little too 'out there' for my taste, I can certainly appreciate the fact that they are hand woven. Even though a lot of skin is exposed, all the important bits are carefully covered nicely. This is my list of favourites:  

1. The white feathery dress. What I wouldn't give to be 6 feet tall and wear this!

2. The black and pink dress. I love the 'bondage' detailing! 

3. The romantic soft pink dress (soft pink is big at LiME by the way!). While this dress is very long, it's still pretty cool. Is it just me or does it look like it's going to to rip if you move?

4. The black, purple and orange dress. I like it...but I don't love it. It reminds me of when I used to do ballet as a kid, but with too many colours. Meh...

What do YOU guys think?

LOVE the new watches, especially the clear one. They are very girly and sparkly, what girl wouldn't stick out if she wore one of these babies? At $20, I might as well get all of them and switch it up every day!

Add some sparkle to your life!

Half Moon Manicure

I sent this out in an email earlier today and I can't get over how different it is! This type of mani is super fashion forward and really pushes the boundaries of normal manicures. I usually rotate between doing a french manicure, using hot pink, neon orange, or a metallic blue but I LOVE this idea! DEFINITELY going to try it out!
Do you guys love it or hate it? Let me know before I do something i'll regret (hehe).

LiME's 2011 Grammy Fashion Report

Holy crap, what is Katy Perry wearing?? While I love that she takes a lot of creative liberties in fashion, this look is a mess. From the chest up, Katy Perry looks like a Victoria Secret Angel at one of their yearly fashion shows. Her boobs are big and sparkly and her Armani Privé dress has wings! Second, the rest of her dress is so tacky I can't even take it. The dress looks like it has an entirely too long wedding train. Save it for the next Victoria's Secret fashion show, Katy!

I lovelovelove how different this is. This Jean Paul Gaultier gown accentuates Rihanna's curvy figure in all the right places. While she did show a lot of skin, she had just enough coverage to keep her looking incredible classy and classy and sophisticated. 

Who says horizontal stripes are unflattering?

Heidi Klum was a vision in gold at the 2011 Grammy's. Even though the mother of 4 (!!!) looked rocked the natural look, she made it look so glamorous! No jewelry needed!

Is it just me or does she look like a living oscar statuette??

What do YOU guys think? Could they have done better? Who is on YOUR best/worst dressed list?
