Fashion 101: The Kid's Choice Awards 2012

Katy Perry
Selena Gomez
Miranda Cosgrove
Emma Stone

The Kid's Choice Awards aired last night and altough I did not watch the entire show, I did see some trending outfits. As the stars walked down the orange carpet, I noticed similar styles such as the midriff baring Katy Perry and Selena Gomez and the soft leather dresses worn by Emma Stone and Miranda Cosgrove. Katy Perry kept with the neon trend, all the peices of her outfit can definietly be made into an everyday outfit. Selena Gomez sticks to a girly theme throughtout her outfit by wearing soft pinks and silver and a cocktail ring. Miranda Cosgrove keeps it edgy, but still spring in a bright blue leather dress and black booties. Emma Stone has a sweet, romantic look by wearing a neutral colored leather dress and tan wedges. Her blonde, wavy hair adds more sweetness to the look. Although their were no showstopping dresses, I did see many styles that can work for everyday and are still super cute.

Get The Look: Jennifer Lopez's Colorful Mini Dress

Look #1
Look #2
Jennifer Lopez knows how to rock a mini dress and does it with color! Neons and pastels are in for spring as well as the mini dress and body-con silhouette. Look #1 is very trendy because it is a leather dress and even features a bit of nude colorblocking. Jennifer's strappy heels help lengthen out her legs and the gold bracelets go great with her skin tone. The shades and white clutch are perfect accessories because they don't do too much. Look #2 is simple, but still bright and cheery. The neon green dress paired with hot pink heels work together since they are the only two bright colors in the outfit. The long sleeves are perfect for spring because it keeps you warm when the weather gets windy. Jennifer accessorizes with silver jewelry and wavy hair.
What do you think about Jennifer's looks?

Love Her Style: Rihanna and Brooklyn Decker

Rihanna and Brooklyn Decker
Rihanna and Brooklyn Decker of the movie, Battleship, are looking absolutely gorgeous at a photocall. Rihanna, in an Alexander Wang dress is very classy, but still young. The dark green color of the dress looks great with her skin tone and the black heels  and gold wrist choker are lovely accessories. Rihanna's hair color and style is gorgeous and the waves are perfect for spring. Her make-up is also very natural, the nude lipstick is beautiful.  Brooklyn Decker is very daring in a quilted, swirly, cut-out Stella Mcartney dress. I love her heels and her use of no jewlery, it lets the dress speak for itself. Brooklyn Decker's pulled back her shows off her face and her make-up look is brings out her eyes.
How do you feel about Rihanna and Brooklyn Decker's dresses?

Hair 101: The Milkmaid Braid

Elle Fanning
Mary-Kate Olsen
The milkmaid braid is a trending hairstyle and works with medium to long hair. It is perfect for a bad hair day, a casual day, or even a night out! The only tools needed are a few ponytail holders, bobby pins, a brush, a comb, hairspray/ serum, and a curling//flat iron is optional. How do you feel about the milkmaid braid?
  1. Begin with day old hair so the braids will hold. Comb/brush out any tangles in the hair.
  2. Part your hair two sections and loosely braid the hair creating pigtails. Secure each braid with a ponytail holder.
  3. If you would like the braid to look looser, tug and expand the braid as desired.
  4. Pull one of the braids across your head and secure it with a bobby pin. Do the same with the other braid.
  5. For a smoother look, lightly brush the front back. For a messy look pull out your bangs and use a curling iron to create waves.
  6. Use hairspray to keep the look in place and serum to take care of unnecessary frizz.
Remember practice makes perfect and patience is key to creating new hairstyles. Modify some steps to suit you perfectly.

Trend Alert: Socks with Heels



Emma Roberts

Emma Roberts stays looking young and carefree by pairing risque socks with a pair of shorts. Make sure you pair the look with a covered top half and chic accessories to not go too raunchy with the look.

Leighton Meester
Leighton Meester is super posh in this oufit! She stays in an all black look which maintains color with pops of floral in the dress. I loev that her socks are the same color as her shoes and only go up to about mid-calf.
Rihanna
Rihanna is in a daring girly meets edgy look in this outfit. Her gold pumps are paired with white socks that bunch at the ankles which work because they are in a neutral color.


A trend I am seeing repeatedly on everyone from celebrities to everday fashionistas is socks with heels. The look is stylish while also keeping your feet warm or hiding a bad pedicure.   Keep the look fresh by wearing socks that bunch up at the ankle or go up to or higher than your calf. Make sure to keep the socks a neutral colors that goges with your shoes and outfit to prevent a childish look.
