Grammys: My Fave/Least Fave & Fierce Find!

It's Monday Luvs,

Another week, the same grind ;-). 

I am sure most of you, if not all of you caught snippets of the 2010 Grammys last night. For those of you on twitter as usual I had A LOT to say. So much in fact that I surpassed my tweet limit and got put into twitter jail :-(


Very depressing I know. Livid and sad was an understatement. Anywayz, twitter was LIVE with Grammy talk. For a recap feel free to follow me on twitter.


Overall the show was ehhhh mediocre to say the least. PINK's performance was one of my favorites I must say, but contrary to the show the red carpet was sizzling with Grammy dresses. Yall know I had to post my favorite and least favorite dress of the night. Although I am usually in Rihanna's corner with whatever she wears I can honestly say I liked her dress, but did not love it. I thought she could have done better. The same goes for Beyonce. Her dress was ehhh alright, but I did not love it. Either way both diva's were fierce in their own right. Did we expect anything less? NEVER hehe also, included in the fierce category was Mary J. Blige, Jennifer Hudson, Melanie Fiona and Carrie Underwood. However; Keri Hilson and Jennifer Lopez take the cake (in my humble opinion) for most and least liked.

Ms. Hilson looked simple and stunning in this mermaid bottom Dolce & Gabbana gown. Usually the songstress/songwriter gives us chic, edgy & fabulous so its nice to see a softer side.

Now Mrs. Lopez on the other hand graced us with this Versace gown that I did not feel complimented her at all. I get the edgy look she was going for, but the white overlay through it off. I definitely was not a fan :-/.

To catch up on the Grammys red carpet affair be sure to check out what some of the experts have to say on Fashion Police: 2010 Grammys tonight at 10 on E!

Moving right along....

Name: JS Collections Lace Bodice Laser Cut Dress
Color: Black/Taupe
Price: $198.00
Retailer: Nordstrom

Call me crazy, but I think this dress is really cute. In the spirit of the Grammys I wanted to feature a cocktail dress for my fellow fashionistas. As I have mentioned before every girl should own one or two cocktail dresses because you never know when you might need to pull one out. I thought this dress was simple yet interesting. The bodice gives the dress some flare and the laser cut pencil bottom gives added shape to certain curves. The only concern that I have with this dress is that not everyone can wear it depending on your body type so that is definitely something to keep in mine. Nevertheless, I personally think its adorable. Remember spending anywhere from $100-$300 on a cocktail dress is pretty much average for a decent/good quality dress. Now do not get me wrong below $100 is always a steal, but no one will raise an eyebrow if you go a tad over :-).
