Roberto Cavalli: South Coast Plaza

Last week as I charged through South Coast Plaza (the largest mall in California-I die!!) in Costa Mesa, my friend and I came upon the most magnificent Roberto Cavalli collection on display for the public. While we were a floor up from the gathering below, seriously surprised but also very excited as to what we just witnessed, we literally ran to the glass elevators and rode down to the first floor as fast as it would get us there. When we walked up to the amazing gowns that A-list celebrities have worn from 2003 to today, we couldn't help but snap pictures and gush over the brilliant pieces. They were all perfectly draped upon a mannequin and the detail of each frock was magnificent. I immediately thought of you, my readers, and knew you guys would be very interested and inspired, just like us.

Mani With A Flair

Spice up your fingers with the fun, new nail craze. Painting an amazing and unexpected splash of color on one nail is an affordable, easy and cute way to wear the popular trend, which is similar to the color-blocking of clothing. Experts suggest mixing two neon shades or coordinating metallics with pastels. I recently did a light peach on my nails and went for a colorful splash of mango on my ring fingers. It turned out super fab. Try your very own and get some ideas from the celebs below.

Vanessa Hudgens opts for gorgeous brown and gray to match her sparkly dress. Perfect colors for brunettes, especially in the fall, I obsess over these colors.

Beyonce went bold with pink and green neon. She matched her green earrings with her green ring fingers. Clever, B!

Modeling for "Impress Press-On Manicure" by Broadway, Nicole Scherzinger punches things up with a pink mani and single black "shatter" nail on her ring fingers.

B’Day

Beyonce; winner of sixteen Grammy Awards and wife of fourteen occasion Grammy recipient Jay-Z, was named People Magazine’s Most Beautiful Person. In recognition of Mrs. Sasha Fierce, who is only the second African-American and second recording artist awardee within the honor’s twenty-three years, I present a quartet of the Single Ladies singer’s most spectacular moments and one of her aside he who put an eighteen carat ring on it.

Beyonce elucidates and exemplifies the objective of accessories as her studded white tote exquisitely extracts a medley of polka dots from this enchantingly hued dress.

The Heat fragrance creator radiates sensuality and sophistication in this bold red blazer, ferocious leopard scarf, skinny jeans, and brown ankle boots.

Beyonce's elegance is simply irreplaceable as she wafts in this elongated black dress, accented with butterfly and chord necklaces, a sleek ponytail, and ruffled and strappy heels.

The If I Were A Boy songstress epitomizes the girl next door as she flits this nonchalant ensemble which includes a white blazer and top, black sunnies, silver sparkly handbag, gray leggings, and bedazzled silver heels.

Blue Ivy's parents are most incredibly Crazy In Love as our girl B sports a fun blush colored jacket with cute rolled shorts and stilettos, while her boy Young rocks a white t-shirt draped with a gray jacket and dark washed jeans.

Oh Baby!

Many celebrities have rung out the year with pregnancies. It can always be a challenge for pregnant mama's to find stylish clothes while they have a baby growing inside their belly. But, these celebrities really know how to flaunt their cute tummies. Oh baby!

 Jessica Simpson wears a form fitting black top with leggings and an absolutely adorable leopard jacket that screams ferocity yet she adds a glowing touch with her cute sunnies. Simpson is such a stylish mom-to-be! 

Hilary Duff, still petite with baby No. 1 on the way, gives us a layered look that is fun and causal but adds a pop of boldness with cat sunnies and a cute stone necklace.

If you are planning to attend a formal event, try something like Beyonce and go for something form fitting, yet loose and comfy so you won't be uncomfortable the whole evening. Spice up your gown with gorgeous jewels.

The always stunning, mommy material, Jennifer Garner goes cute and chic in skinny maternity jeans with a somewhat flowy black top that enhances her chest and arm areas. Garner knows how to dress effortlessly with or without a baby on the way.
