Hey Guys, the blog has been a bit dead again, please forgive me, Christmas in work was cray cray and college has been mental, but the good news is Awards Season is back and the biggest party in Hollywood was just a mere 2 days ago, here is a run down of the hits and misses of the night!

All that glitters: Jennifer Lopez made a plunging entrance in a fabulous pale gown
J.Lo: 45, she is 45! Amazing in the Zuhair Murad, Flawless

Sparkling in Chanel: Reese Witherspooon, nominated for Best Actress in a Motion Picture for her work in Wild, wore silver Calvin Klein
Reese Witherspoon: Simple but stunning in this Silver Calvin Klien. She always wears him well

Baby approved: Rosamund revealed that her infant son had given her outfit the nod, by not crying
Rosamund Pike: The Gone Girl Star just had a baby 5 weeks ago and still looked like a dream in Vera Wang, so elegant, I love it

Pale but VERY interesting! Kate Hudson wowed in white cut-out Versace as she arrived for the Golden Globes in Los Angeles on Sunday
Kate Hudson: OMG, Bombshell much, so so sexy, she looks Hot! This Versace was the perfect choice!

All white: Emily Blunt, with husband John Krasinski, joked she was worried she would ruin her pale gown; explaining 'I have a baby!'
Emily Blunt: While the actress looks stunning, I can't help feel she played it a bit safe in this Micheal Kors Gown

Working it in white: Chrissy Teigen, Entourage star Emmanuelle Chriqui and E!'s Louise Roe
Chrissy Teigan: One of my Girl Crushes and favorite person on Twitter, The model looked amazing in her Zuhair Murad gown, she looks so fresh and young, I love it

Delicate detailing: Anna Faris in Reem Acra with a Judith Leiber clutch, Kristen Wiig and Camila Alves
Kristen Wiig: I don't know who told her she looked good but they lied! Awful, the print, the cut, the fit, just awful

Delicate detailing: Anna Faris in Reem Acra with a Judith Leiber clutch, Kristen Wiig and Camila Alves
Camilla Alves: The model looked simply radiant in her Monique Luillier baby pink gown. True Elegance

Her big day! Sienna Miller wore a wedding-worthy Miu Miu gown, complete with hand embellishment
Sienna Miller: I love this Miu Miu on the actress, I love the plunge, the color, the embellishment, I think this look suits her so well and brings it once again

A model guest: Heidi's gown was certainly eye catching
Heidi Klum: The supermodel and Versace are always a sexy and solid combination, she is red hot in this dress

Full length and fabulous: Catherine Zeta-Jones and Viola Davis go for the full-on ballgown look
CZJ: The actress wore a simple red Donna Karen ball gown. Its simple, stunning and elegant, just like her

Full length and fabulous: Catherine Zeta-Jones and Viola Davis go for the full-on ballgown look
Viola Davis: The star of my new TV obsession brought it in an amazing Donna Karen number. I love the detail on the sides and look how happy she looks in that dress, a great look for the actress

Kate Mara: I  would have loved this Miu Miu dress if it was not for that awful belt that just did not go. I mean why was that even necessary, No, just no

Ravishing in red: Girls star Lena Dunham, wearing Zac Posen, arrived with her new co-star Andrew Rannells
Lena Dunham: The superstar went with Old friend Zac Posen. This is one of the better looks the star has had. I love the  red, I think her and Zac work best together. She should stick to this style.

One of the Girls: Lena's co-star Allison Williams wore a beaded strapless gown
Alison Williams: The Girls star brought it like always in Armani. The beading is insane, the color is so rich and she looks so beautiful, gorgeous.

Bucking the trend: Nominee Jennifer Aniston, whose appearance in Cake has created quite the buzz, went her own way in Saint Laurent
Jennifer Aniston: The rom com superstar went for a simple, almost dull black fitted dress. This year she is a nominee, she should have upped her game, this looks like a prom dress I could buy off the rack, very dull.

 Making an impact: Homeland star Claire Danes, George Clooney's human rights lawyer wife Amal, Edie Falco and Katie Cassidy
Amal Cloony: The most talked about woman of the night was Human Rights Lawyer Amal. The lawyer went for a simple Black Dior. I love the dress, she looked elegant and classic but I am not crazy about the white gloves. However overall this was such a classy look, bravo.

Making an impact: Homeland star Claire Danes, George Clooney's human rights lawyer wife Amal, Edie Falco and Katie Cassidy
Claire Dannes: This woman always gets it right, always looks immaculate, but this dress, not a fan. The fit is bad and the print is too old for her, I am sorry but she can do so much better.


Making an impact: Homeland star Claire Danes, George Clooney's human rights lawyer wife Amal, Edie Falco and Katie Cassidy
Katie Cassidy: Her hair and make up, bet of the night, beautiful, but the dress, no. It looks so tacky with plunge, the slit and the cut out, pick one but not all 3, also the mix of silver just adds to the recipe for disaster.

Not a follower of trends: The 18-year-old New Zealander carried off her offbeat choice with aplomb
Lorde: The singer kept true to herself in this amazing pant suit, I love the whole ensemble, from the necklace, to the red lip to the crop top, an amazing look!

The iron lady: Jessica Chastain shimmered in metallic bronze, complete with plunging neckline; the gown is a Versace version of a gold Travilla dress Marilyn wore in Gentleman Prefer Blondes
Jessica Chastain: My girl crush rocked up in a bronze Versace number. While this is a nice look from the star, she has looked so much more amazing at past Globe red carpets.


Dakota Johnston: The 50 Shades star looked AMAZING in this Chanel silver number. This girl knows all eyes will be in her for he next few months and when pulls looks like this I cant wait to see her on the press tour for 50 Shades

Lovely in lilac: Amy Adams is nominated for Best Actress in a Motion Picture - Comedy or Musical for her role in Big Eyes
Amy Adams: The winner looked ravishing in a pale blue fitted gown. I love the simplicity of this look, the color, the shape the fit, simple marvelous!


Lupita Nyong'o: The queen of last years red carpet went for a purple flowing number this year. While I like the color and shape of the dress, nothing can top last years red dress. Sorry but she set the bar so high last year this year fell just a little flat


Kerry Washington: One of my favorite people ever, Kerry wore a Mary Katrantzou pink and purple dress. I love the mix of colors on the star and the structure suits her so well


Leslie Mann: The star looked great in a bright yellow gown. I love the color against her skin tone and hair, Stunning

American Music Awards: Fashion Review

Last Night some of the biggest names graced the red carpet for the AMA's. The fashion was daring, bright and glamorous, here's a run down of the looks from last night.

J.Lo, look at those abs, this Reem Acra dress shows off her amazing stomach and the color is so good on her

Selena Gomez looks so sleek and chic in Armani Prive. I love this look on her it's so classy and glamorous, stunning

Jordan Spark: I am not crazy about this look, I think the dress looks a bit cheap but she looks stunning, her hair and make up looks great

Fergie: She brought it once again, this look is so simple so gorgeous, amazing


Guliana Rancic wore an interesting asymmetrical dress on the night. I like the dress against her hair but those shoes are hideous.

Flawless: The blonde beauty looked simply stunning in her figure-hugging gown as she joked around on the carpet
Rita Ora must know she looks great. I love this  yellow Zac Posen. The color, the structure, the hair and make up, it's stunning.

Zendaya Coleman
Zendaya went for a real retro look. Some people hated it but I think it looks so boho with a modern twist and if anyone can pull it off, its her

LBD: Khloe, 30, donned a skintight asymmetric mini-dress and black patent pumps
Khloe Kardashian looked hot in a black mini. Its a good look but a bit bland in my opinion

Kylie Jenner
Kylie Jenner wore a very daring grown up look on carpet. I like the dress but she looks far to old for her age. I also hate the shoes.

.Model style: Kendall, 19, looked statuesque in a sheer black halterneck gown
Kendall Jenner looked great in a halter dress. She looks sleek but sexy. The model looks amazing


Gigi Handid wore a interesting suit. I am not crazy about this. A simple white pant suit would have looked way better


Megan Traynor wore a simple skater dress. I love the top part of the dress but the satin looks far too creased. However I do love the shoes and the bag

Charlie XCX
Charlie XCX looked amazing. This is such a different look for the star. Amazing


Ali Fedowtowsky looked slick in an all white dress. The structure of the dress so so chic, I love it


Christina Milian rocked a simple and sexy look in a Aztec black dress.


Taylor Schilling. I am not crazy about this dress, its a bit bland. She is such hot property at the moment I this was a dud choice


Kate Beckinsale looked utterly amazing this this white cut out gown, how is this woman 41


Lucy Hale  looked

Calvin Harris Motion: Review

The man of EDM is back, after the monster hit that was 18 Months, Calvin Harris is back with a brand new album. Calvin is one of my favorite artists around and has been since about 2007. He has come a long way since "The Girls" and I have been so excited to hear this album. Here is a rundown of all the tracks

1. Faith: Calvin sings this by himself and it's nice to see him using his vocals. It's a good mellow beat, there's not a huge bass or beat but it's still strong opener.

2. Under Control ft Alesso & Hurts: His first single off the album that is now a year old. I fell in love with this song as soon as I heard it. The mix of Calvin and Alesso is amazing and Hurts vocals just adds something so special to it. I still love this song 12 months on.

3. Blame ft John Newman: The subtle drums and piano riffs complement Johns voice so well. When the beat drops, the mix is just fantastic, no wonder it did so well in the charts

4. Love Now ft All About She: I have never heard of this artiest but I really like her voice. There are some nice violins but there is not a major dance track to the song, it's very different to what Calvin does.

5. Slow Acid: This is just pure music. It's really only for big EDM fans, but for the fans he made it for I think they will love it.

6. Outside ft Ellie Golding; I love love LOVE this track. I have not stopped listening to it all week. I love the violins and how Ellies voice works so well against them. I don't know what it is about Ellie and Calvin but when they get together they just make magic

7. It Was You ft Firebeatz: Another one for the hardcore EDM fans, this has more of a dubstep feel.  I really like it though, it really shows Calvins talents as a producer

8. Summer: The monster hit was a hit for a reason, I remember finishing my summer exams and driving around a long stretch of road with my friends and it started the summer off perfectly. This song was perfect for the time of the year and the beat was so fun and upbeat, perfect tune.

9. Overdrive ft Ummet Ozcan: This is the song that will make fans go wild when they see this love, its a song that will get everyone on the dancefloor. I really really like this song and think it's pure EDM.

10. Ecstasy ft Hurts: Hurts adds another really strong vocal but this a pure ballad. There is not beat, it's very strange to hear this on a Harris album, I feel this belongs on Hurts record, more than Harris

11. Pray to God ft HAIM. The ladies vocals add something really slick to track, it is the perfect blend of their sound and Calvins, a really good combination from the two.

12. Open Wide ft Big Sean: Two Words, absolute Tune. Big Sean adds slick hip hop lyrics while Calvin works his magic. These two show how well the genres can mix when its don't

13. Together ft Gwen Stefanie: Gwens voice is so distinctive after all years, however there is no real magic between the pair. She suits EDM but this song it just not very strong and feels like a bit of a filler

14. Burnin ft R3hab: Another EDM track that brings two amazing EDM artiest together. I love it when Calvin does collaborations like this, it makes for a great tune.

15. Dollar Signs ft Tinashe: This was a good choice of Calvins part, he stuff sounds great but Tinashes voice is a bit forgettable. The music is great but the vocals are just a bit boring.

Overall: Calvin did not disappoint he has brought in some great people to work. He is always trying new sounds and mixing commercial tracks with more heavy EDM work. On this album it's no different. Some music snobs say he is commercial and not a real Producer, however this album tells a different story. Calvin gives a good mix for his fans and this will enter the race for number 1 in no time, the question is, where can he go from here?

Best Track: Outside: Pure magic, Ellie and Calvin are a lethal combination.

Worst Track: Together. A big disappointment. Gwen & Harris should have been great but her vocals fall flat, seems like such a waste.
