52nd Grammy Awards: Black, White, Shimmery.
The 52nd Grammy Award saw some new generation artistes rocking up in less than classic styles that were ubiquitous in red carpet events of the past. We saw how Ri Ri came during the pre-Grammy gala in Viktor and Rolf half-bitten cotton candy dress, while Lady Gaga did live up to her quirky status in the wardrobe department by being spotted in an orb-like Armani gown. Then you have the Perry who kissed a girl and liked it, who never fails to be at the fore front of anything fashion. As much as I hate her sequined George Chakras frock with zigzag hem, I must admit that I have to give her credits for her courage to wear that and date Russel Brand.
Besides black, nude and white were the popular colours for the night. There was Katy Perry in a nude Zac Posen number, and Heidi Klum in a nude Emilio Pucci minidress. She may have throw away all her Louboutins, but Jennifer Lopez did came in a white and silver chain-mail Versace gown that accentuated her figure well.
Rihanna did a change and redeemed herself later in the evening with a high neck white Elie Saab gown with a mini train.
With $200,000 worth of custom made Lorraine Schwartz and Ofira earrings, who would have thought anyone will look so thrashy, but sorry Beyonce (as much as I adore her), I really hated the overall styling from the light-colored hair to the mermaid-like Stephane Rolland gown. Taylor Swift wasn't too far off in my list of worst-dressed with her choice on that Kaufman Franco dress that made her look twice her age. Judging from the trend on the biggest winner and best album title-holder for the year, that was probably the trade-off.

Gucci does UNICEF
If there's one thing to applaud Frida Giannini (post-Tom Ford days) for, it has got to be the latest white Tattoo Heart Collection.
An effort to support children affected by HIV/AIDS in sub - Saharan Africa, this is a meaningful campaign run (in it's fourth year) between Gucci and UNICEF.
For once, we unanimously thought that the GG label wasn't ugly. (We can't be too sure that Rihanna didn't play a part in our decision).
Rihanna - Ad Campaign
Frida and Rihanna
This exclusive collection will be sold in over 20 countries worldwide from November 19, 2008 to January 31, 2009. Gucci will donate 25 percent of sales to UNICEF's lifesaving programs.
We must say that this looks like the perfect Christmas gift this season!

Grammys fashion - red carpet : Blue is the new Black
The exact color that got me into trouble while working for this famous local designer,
cobalt blue is the "in" thing this season.
At the recent Grammy Awards RC, stars were spotted strutting down the red carpet in all shades of blue.
Zac Posen and Giorgio Armani did well in their score cards.
Sultry singer and 4 award nominee, Rihanna, attended the event in a cobalt blue tulle and organza-like dress from Zac Posen. The dress complements her new short crop so well, we almost forgot about the Chopard bracelet!
Not exactly blue, but we simply love this dress!
Very flowy and glamourous. English singer and songwriter, Natasha bedingfield wore this purple Reem Acra gown with matching belt around the empire line; giving some edge to the heavily draped gown. We know where you can find pretty dresses like this!
Not exactly my favourite, but this Elie Saab number is much adorned by other fashion critics.
Clad in this pale blue tulle and silver beaded haute couture gown, Beyonce "wow" the crowd down the red carpet. At least she's in the right hue!
Like a modern goddess, Nelly Furtado was clad in a crystal bright blue Arthur Mendonca draped gown. The sweetheart neckline and drapes accentuates the rapper's womanly curves.
This best new artist nominee, Taylor Swift, matched her borrowed Jimmy Choo's with a lilac-blue medieval-inspired gown by Sandi Spika. The silk bustier with beaded A-line skirt enhances her figure.
As for the men?
Stick to black.
