1.        Jennifer Lopez

Jennifer Lopez turned up the heat on the blue carpet in a gold Zuhair Murad gown. Never one to be stingy on the “sexy,” Lopez rocked a boldly plunging neckline. She polished off the look with gorgeous pointed Christian Louboutins.

2.       Taylor Swift

It seems that Zuhair Murad was a hit on the BMA blue carpet. Country crooner Taylor Swift sparkled in a bright blue glittered mini with sheer panels on the front and back. Taylor perfected her flirty look with a beautiful pair of Jimmy Choos.

3.       Emily Rossum

Yet another blue carpet hit for Zuhair Murad! Emily Rossum made a statement in this black velvet gown with polka-dotted panels. The actress completed the look with a few dazzling cocktail rings. Who says Goth can’t be sexy?

4.       Hayden Panettiere

Actress Hayden Panettiere went for a more sophisticated look in a black Halston Heritage gown. This backless halter featured tiny ruffles along the bodice and went along perfectly with the star’s Jimmy Choo clutch. Hayden definitely proved that a simple, sophisticated look can still make a huge statement.

5.       Selena Gomez

Paneling seemed to be a major trend on the blue carpet. Selena Gomez stunned in a white Atelier Versace gown featuring sheer panels along the front, side and back. The dress’ neon trimmings brought a youthful feel to Selena’s look, which was topped off with a dazzling pair of Jimmy Choos. (Images: Eonline.com)

Attendees dressed to impress and filled the Hard Rock Café for this patriotism-infused fashion show at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa. From bold stars to color-blocked stripes, fierce camouflage to sparkle and shine, INDASHIO did not disappoint with his never-before-seen American Dream collection. Models rocked the runway to beats provided by DJ Kidd Leow of 93.3 FLZ FM.

INDASHIO, one of the youngest designers ever to show at Fashion Week in New York, was excited to be back in the Bay area to showcase his newest collection and bring an over-the-top fashion show spectacular to Tampa Bay. We caught up with INDASHIO following the show and he enlightened us with the inspiration behind the collection: “Obama and the spirit of equality in America, especially marriage equality, inspired the designs for my American Dream collection.”

While the finale was star-studded to say the least, it was INDASHIO’s talent and passion for his work that truly lit up the night and brought his own American Dream to life.

A portion of the event proceeds will benefit the Wounded Warriors Project, a cause that INDASHIO holds very near to his heart. Event sponsors included the Hilton Tampa Downtown, Tampa Bay Times, Wild 94.1 FM, Maxima 92.5 FM and ACE Tampa.

Did you attend the show? What do you think of INDASHIO’s American Dream collection?

The Seven Devils showcase was as unique as Dolly Donshey’s designs. The audience was mesmerized by the theatrics of the show as the models impersonated each of their deadly sins to Ms. Donshey’s poetic narration.

Monstruosité’s Fall/Winter 2013-14 collection stayed very true to its theme. The designs, the story behind the collection, the luminous makeup and hair pieces down to the glitter-infused faux blood covering the models’ limbs – the showcase did not miss a beat. Although, this does not come as a surprise for work produced by TBFW Designer 2011 & 2012, Dolly Donshey.

We look forward to the bright future of Dolly Donshey and the beyond ingenious and artistic work yet to come from Monstruosité.

Tina Fey is strutting a custom L’Wren Scott dress that is paying a tribute to the 50’s era due to its cut and length. She pulls it off well as it shows her glamorous side while still remaining quirky. Amy Poehler shocked the crowd as she sports a custom Stella McCartney tux, revealing a sexy deep V. Both of these comedic leading ladies couldn’t have looked better as for tonight, all eyes on Hollywood are on them. (Image: celebrity-gossip.net)

Anne Hathaway looks absolutely radiant in this white beaded Chanel gown. The Les Miserables star looks flawless with her pixie hair cut, and this proves that simplicity can be all you need. (Image: Huffington Post)

Adele made her Golden Globes debut this year, as her hit song Skyfall was nominated and won at this years show. She is wearing a Burberry gown that is pure Adele-style. It’s very modest and the detailing at the decolletage is a nice touch. The talented songstress is looking gorgeous as she recently gave birth to her first child. (Image: RedCarpetFashionAwards.com)

Sofia Vergara glistened on the red carpet as she pulled off a Michael Cinco gown exceptionally well. Her hair is simple, her makeup is clean, and she has done the fashion gods justice once again. Bravo! (Image: FabSugar.com)

Jennifer Lopez was the definition of sexy and classy as she wore a Zuhair Murad sheer gown, complete with lace. Notoriously known for making statements on the red carpet, Jennifer Lopez is a contender for this years “Best Dressed” at the Globes. (Image: RedCarpetFashionAwards.com)

Kate Hudson rocks the red carpet with this amazing piece by Alexander McQueen. While it’s hard to not kill it when wearing McQueen, Hudson definitely turns up the volume and does the late designer justice in every way. Another contender for my “Best Dressed” list! (Image: RedCarpetFashionAwards.com)

Michelle Dockery made heads turn as she showed up in an Alexandre Vauthier Fall 2012 Couture gown. Gorgeous lace with impeccable detail from the bust to the cap sleeve, and a seamless white crepe bottom made this star another possibility for this year’s “Best Dressed.” (Image: RedCarpetFashionAwards.com)

Olivia Munn is seen here absolutely killing it in a Giorgio Armani Spring 2013 dress. The black and turquoise zig zag top is interesting and appealing to the eye, as the bottom black portion is sleek and sexy. Job well done, Olivia! (Image credit: RedCarpetFashionAwards.com)

Nicole Kidman has done it! She wins this years “Best Dressed” …according to me, at this year’s Golden Globes. Alexander McQueen does it again as this dress is everything the Golden Globes truly stands for. It’s elegant, sexy and a little off the edge, and Kidman commands the red carpet like a true Hollywood icon should. Congrats Nicole! (Image credit: Glamour.com)

Lucy Liu took an extremely bold chance as she chose this printed Caroline Herrera dress. It’s shocking at first, but I have to admit I find it to be absolutely BEAUTIFUL! One of the very few prints we have seen on the red carpet this season and only a star like Liu could pull it off! (Image: Glamour.com)

Kerry Washington plays up the sex factor and succeeds tremondously with this Miu Miu jewel encrusted gown. While not floor length, her rocker chic hair and closed-toe shoes makes this look a must-see for this evening. (Image: Glamour.com)

Zachary Levi looks beyond adorable and extremely handsome in this midnight blue tux. A man who has the confidence and the ability to pull off anything but a black tux gets major points from me “Best Dressed” male for me this year by far. (Image: Fresherthanchris.com)

There you have it! Only a small look at what is known to be the biggest (and possibly sloppiest) party/award show of the year. The Academy Awards (Feb. 24) are sneaking up on us and I’ll be back to give all of you the latest scoop on the hottest looks.

Kaley Cuoco was once again this year’s host for the 2nd time in a row and is seen here wearing a fair pink Christian Siriano Dress, Giuseppe Zanotti shoes, and Dana Reecca Designs Jewelry. I’m not crazy about this look, and I think it’s too “cute-sy.” What do you think?

Taylor Swift shocked all of us this year and looks absolutely stunning in this stark white Ralph Lauren gown, complete with dangling turquoise earrings. The 23 year old newly single songstress sure can rock the camera! She is definitely my pick for ‘Best Dressed’ at this year’s “People’s Choice Awards.”

Lea Michele is seen here in a shockingly bright pink, fun, and flirty mini dress, completely embellished by Ellie Saab. I applaud Michele for making such a drastic choice as this creation also has sheer cutouts from front to back. On glee this season we are noticing how major of a body Michele has, and golf claps to her for showing it off! This isn’t my favorite look of the night, but this just shows you how diverse the “Peoples Choice Awards” can get.

Ashley Rickards looks sophisticated and mature in this stunning Aidan Mattox gown. The color is a neutral and really makes her gorgeous chocolate brown hair pop. The detail in that triangular beading is sick…which is a good thing

Julianne Hough made sure everyone noticed her as she frocked down the red carpet in this amazing Tony Ward Couture cocktail dress. The adorable closed-toe shoes are none other than Guiseppe Zanotti and the short hair is definitely working in her favor. It’s nice to see Hough in a more covered up dress, as it’s a change up from her normal flesh flashing costumes on “Dancing with the Stars.”

Naomi Watts amped up the game as she appeared bold and flawless. An Alexander McQueen Resort ’13 gown is a unique number, however, it works for her. With that sexy open back, it’s no wonder that this star has lots of things to smile about.

While some starlets have made incredible feats in the fashion category last night…others didn’t exactly. Take a look at some of the stars who should’ve also let the people choose what they were going to wear.

Jennifer Aniston has finally done it. After always looking beyond incredible in her perfect glowing skin and killer body…it appears she is ready to play the rom-com version of “Gladiator.”Sorry Jen, maybe next year.

Heidi Klum is generally associated as a fashion icon with her impeccable looks and vast experience as a model. However, even though she has a rockin’ body, she has missed the mark for me on last night’s dress. This Julien McDonald gown has me thinking Princess Leia slave couture…anyone else get that vibe?

Paris Hilton is known for lots of things, and now the most recent will be her winning my “Worst Dressed” title for this years “People’s Choice Awards.” This scantily clad dress is all sorts of wrong, while the shoes don’t help. Sorry Paris, but…nice try.

Eddie Redmayne is pulling off a rugged yet polished look in this tartan print suit, completed with all the right accessories, including the black vest. Congratulations Redmayne, you’re this year’s “Best Dressed Male”!

Well, we have taken only a glimpse into the good and the bad when it came to fashion at this year’s “People’s Choice Awards.” It’s a new year and award season 2013 is well underway. Next up is the “Golden Globe Awards” which takes place on January 13th. A whole new breed of glamour and glitz awaits and I can’t wait to share with you all that Hollywood has to offer once again!

A former fashion student and aspiring hair stylist, Jenna’s jaw-dropping style comes flawlessly natural to her.  As if pairing studded riding boots with metallic leggings were not striking enough, she finished the look with a dark denim blazer and purple feather accessories of mind blowing proportions.

Have you been inspired to journey out in search of some metallic denim yet?  I know I have, thanks to this week’s style muse, Jenna.  When you find the perfect pair, why not throw in a feather or two?

Metallic denim is hotter than ever this season, from light champagne to brilliant gold.  Pair it with a cute sweater for the ultimate ensemble.

Traditionally, Fall fashion can sometimes appear drab.  Don’t you dare pair a frumpy dark sweater with black pants!  Choose one brilliant sparkling piece to create magic within the rest of your ensemble.

On your search for Fall fashion, have fun!  Remember:

In the area of swimwear, Essence Flowers has broken the mold in a most fabulous manner.  Featuring unique short sleeved pieces, plus size options and I must say that since the night of the show, I have been considering wearing a glittering masquerade mask to the beach.

Sometimes, the most amazing fashion comes from the least amount of fabric.

Another incredible designer, Lapratto brought surprising splashes of color in the form of ruffles and a stunning over-sized flower.

With so many amazing pieces, you may need to take a moment to let all of the fashion sink in.  I know I did!

Who doesn’t love a girl who knows how to hold a sword?  Inspired by the age old sport of fencing, House of Donshey presented a fabulous collection filled with sexy corsets and dazzling accessories.

In the spirit of corsets, feathers and everything fabulous, Wicked Betty also presented a delightfully sinful collection.

Between House of Donshey and Wicked Betty,  there was a plethora of fantasy, sparkle and  sex appeal.  Who doesn’t love that?
