That’s right! This is a best dressed list for 2 recent award shows/red carpets. First up, the 2014 ACM Awards (brought to you by MGM Grand), which celebrates the year’s most talented country stars.
TAYLOR SWIFT — Taylor definitely switched it up for this red carpet look. So rather than a sparkling mini or a fitted gown, she changed up her signature style for this daring & sexy 2-piece look from J. Mendel — a white crop top with neckline cutouts & a long black skirt with a thigh-high slit. Paired with this look are sandal heels, “Trikini”, by Casadei, a black M2MAlletier clutch, a Jennifer Fisher gold initial ring, & several jewelry pieces by Marina B (large ring, gold bracelet, & dangling earrings with an emerald stone).
Miranda had a few looks for the evening, but for me, her red carpet arrival look was the standout of the evening. This look was a signature gold fitted mermaid gown by Randi Rahm, which is also adorned with hand-beaded Swarovksi crystals. She paired with the look some very luxe jewelry pieces, including dangling silver hoops by Kimberly McDonald.
Kimberly is always a standout for my best dressed lists. And this detailed black & fitted floor-length gown with a sheer effect certainly is to be included on this list. This dress is by Georges Hobeika. She’s paired with the look a matching little black clutch.
NATALIE STOVALL
It happens all the time, a newbie for my best dressed lists and sadly, no designer information to share. But that doesn’t not mean this country cutie, Natalie, is not to be included. She looks minimally chic in this fitted asymmetrical black gown. She’s also rightly added some sparkle to complete her look with a diamond ring, bracelet, and earrings.
DANIELLE BRADBERY — I almost couldn’t find any designer information for Danielle’s dazzling look, but thanks to Twitter, I got it covered! This stunning long-sleeved look is from none other than Jovani, which was actually my guess. The matching nature-inspired jewelry is from Sarah Richey jewelry. Her stylist for the overall look was Amber Lehman. And finally, her makeup & hair extraordinaire was Tarryn Feldman. GREAT JOB ALL!
KELLIE PICKLER — Kellie is definitely embodying a princess in this flowing lavender look, with a train, which is by Romona Keveza. To help give it that extra touch of sparkle, she has added a Swarovski crystal belt.
CASSADEE POPE
I love that Cassadee went for this elegant, yet chic red gown by Maria Lucia Hohan, which is complete with sheer side cutouts. It’s a minimalist look, but beautiful nonetheless! She tweeted this was her dream red gown and I agree, I think she looks like a dream and I’m happy for her dream come true!
CHRIS O’DONNELL — So not sure why Chris is at the ACMs, but hey, at least if you are going to go, you might as well look great. And Chris indeed does in head to toe John Varvatos.
The 2nd listing for this best dressed posting is the 2014 Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards — check it out & ENJOY!
ARIANA GRANDE
Ariana looks fun & flirty chic in this mango mini by Aiisha Ramadan. She is also sporting a white Chanel clutch, which is decorated with various Nick cartoon characters.
KIRA KOSARIN — Kira is a newbie for my lists, but I gladly welcome her and bold popping colors looks such as this royal blue # by Peggy Hartanto. She also clearly knows style as she has paired with this look open-toed golden Gucci heels.
BELLA THORNE — I am in love with Bella’s forest green Valentino romper; it looks effortlessly chic, while also looking super comfy! She too has paired her look with some golden accessories, in that of a gold Christian Louboutin heels, Dana Rebecca earrings, & a whole host of rings & bracelets — Graziela Gems, EF Collection, XIV Karats, & Le Vian.
GENEVIEVE HANNELIUS — And last but not least, this Jr cutie, G., who is certainly having some fun with her red carpet frock — it’s an AQ/AQ romper with a poppin pink belt. Her various bold & silver jewelry accessories are from Urban Outfitters. And finally, her comfy black sandals are by Enzo Angiolini.
