Splendicity’s Canada’s Walk of Fame red carpet coverage continues with the Men of the Red Carpet.  Yes, men can be fashionable too, and all red-blooded women out there can appreciate a man in a great suit.
We had a chance to catch up with some of Hollywood’s most fashionable men, including Dean and Dan Caten of DSquared.  Clad in their own designs, this world leading designing duo is responsible for making some of Hollywood’s most glamorous women look fabulous.  And they don’t look too bad themselves, either.
They dished to us about what it’s like to work with Britney Spears and artists …read more

Today, many celebrity children follow their parents into the spotlight, a la the Simmons girls (Pastry shoes anyone?) Mick Jagger’s adult daughter, Jade, recently premiered her line of luxury accessories, Jezabel, in Paris…not so in style.

While I originally wanted to tell all of my readers about the luxurious and super expensive jewelery that Ms. Jagger is going to be selling, I was all but side tracked by her choice in clothing.
Look at that 80s inspired mini-dress. I swear I had one of those in the 1st grade! I am completely distracted by the enormity of those little flying things on …read more

February is the month for huge, celebrity-filled parties!
After all, there are the Grammys, New York Fashion Week is about to kick off, and of course – the Oscars are rolling out the red carpet in the next couple of weeks as well.
Since I am an opinionated fashion blogger, I must throw my two cents into the red carpet pool and pick a few special accessories that I think would make the red carpet walk a little more glamorous.
What am I recommending?  Clear, glittering crystals and pale gold!
Check out the “Brill” sandal by Sergio Rossi:

The nude sandal is covered with teensy …read more

Christian Louboutin’s iconic red sole Mary Jane platforms showed up on the red carpet once again at the Grammy Awards:

Even though the black satin Loubies seem to get the most runway time – there are tons of other options.  Why not rock some sexy leopard print slingbacks?

Or lose the platform, but still go with something outrageously feminine (”Petal” sandals)?

How about even trying some different colors (”Armadillo” striped satin d’orsay)

Muppets do not make suitable boots.

Especially hot pink Muppets.
Seriously, leave the puppets alone and pull on something something… I don’t know, stylish, or attractive – I can even work with trendy here!
You want a bold color?  Let’s see what we can find that won’t make my eyes ache…
How about the “Denver” boot by David Tate?

No?  You still want hot pink?  Maison Martin Margiela may have the boot for you:

Thanks to the Fug Girls for finding this horrifying gem!

Aretha Franklin made an impression on the fashion world with her handmade church hat at the recent  inauguration of Barack Obama.
Mr. Song Millinery, a boutique hat maker based in Detroit has said that they made Aretha Franklin’s hat as a special, one of a kind hat just for her.  You can’t buy one the identical hat, but Mr. Song makes other stunning hats.
These are hats for women who like to be noticed, who like to make an impression.  For the woman with charisma!  Here are a few picks from their Fall/Winter 2008 hat collection:

The hats aren’t available for sale online …read more

Louis Vuitton has just launched a new campaign for their Spring & Summer 2009 line of luxury accessories, featuring Madonna.  The photos are all over the internet – but do you want to see what happened behind the scenes?
Check out this fun peek behind the scenes with both Madonna and Marc Jacobs… and prepare to drool at the tables of LV purses!

There has been a whole lot of flack over Aretha Franklin’s choice of hat at the inauguration.  Not sure what I’m talking about?  Here you go…
var iamInit = function() {try{initIamServingHandler(420,294,523990,”http://cdn.pis.picapp.com/IamProd/Resources/Css/css2.css”)}catch(ex){}}()

I’m going to go out on a limb and defend her choice   First of all, she’s a diva and can wear whatever she darn well pleases!  I think she’s got the charisma and style to pull it off – in fact, I think she rocked it!
And let’s not forget how cold it was too…
Hats can make a great style statement – so maybe you should go out on a …read more

I think that Michelle Obama is going to be the next fashion icon for American women – the next Jackie Kennedy perhaps?
Check out her impeccable choices in accessories for the inauguration – she’s sporting Jimmy Choo’s “Glacier” pumps in a cool green:

And has even matched her gloves to her shoes – very nicely done in my opinion!

I know there is some controversary out in the fashion world about her outfit, but I think she looks fashionable and elegant – and every inch the First Lady.
