It’s no surprise that the black and white color combination is still “trending.” This weekend celebs like Ciara, Trey Songz, and Bridget Kelly showed why this look will forever be a classic.

Bridget Kelly’s look is simple and chis. Her black top, statement necklace and white pencil skirt is complimented by mint green strappy sandals. This is the perfect way to add color to your look without feeling overwhelmed.

Ciara’s fresh face and blonde tresses compliment this classic black and white dress. It covers enough to keep the look classy, yet it shows off her best assets, those killer legs!

Trey Songz kept it cool in a black and white graphic print t-shirt and black jeans. Sometimes guys “do the most” but Trey is definitely in style and that awesome smile is just the icing on the cake.

Style Files: 55th Annual Grammy’s Red Carpet

By 2 Comments

Twitter and Facebook were on fire all night during the 55th Annual Grammy Awards. The music industry’s most talented and celebrated artist joined together to recognize those who had an amazing year. Let’s get in to our favorite and least favorite looks of the night.

Kelly Rowland in Georges Chakra

KELLY ROWLAND looked AMAZING! I don’t even have the words to describe how amazing she looks. I ordered a Jeanette Jenkins workout DVD because her body is on point. That dress was made for her. It is sexy! She looks hot!

Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez, Alicia Keys

Queen Bey went against the grain in this black and white pant suit. J. Lo took the memo and threw it out of the window.  Check out that leg! Alicia Keys also wore a black gown, nothing to exciting, but she looks good.

Solange and Katy Perry green with envy!

I don’t have to say much besides green has never looked so good! Solange looks regal in emerald and the mint green compliments Katy Perry’s skin tone perfectly.

Rihanna and Adele

Rihanna and Adele

I wasn’t wow’d by either of these two. I think Rihanna’s hair took away from the dress. I love that Adele wasn’t in black, but this print was not the most flattering. The shape is amazing on her though.

Taylor Swift and Rocsi

Taylor Swift wore a J. Mendel gown. She is always red carpet ready. Rocsi looked great in this white jumpsuit. it is simple but also the shape is very flattering.

Ashanti, Wiz Khalifa and Amber Rose

Ashanti was all about the leg, but she stayed within the guidelines of the memo. Amber Rose and Wiz Khalifa are just ready for their son to arrive. She is definitely glowing.

Nas, Ne-yo, Nelly

These guys went for metallic looks. Nas is sharp!

Miguel, Drake, Frank Ocean, Trey Songz

These guys didn’t disappoint either. Trey and Drake look so polished. Frank and Miguel are well, Frank and Miguel.

Who rocked the Grammy’s Red Carpet for you? My vote is with Ms. Kelly!

Hot 97 Summer Jam 2010

By Leave a Comment

This past Sunday, I attended Hot97’s Summer Jam concert. I swore back in 2006 I would never go to Summer Jam, but this year’s line up was crazy. There were performances by Juelz Santana, Gucci Mane and Wacka Flocka, Fabolous, Nicki Minaj, Drake, Talib Kweli and Hi-Tek, Rick Ross, DJ Khaled, Usher, Trey Songz, Ludacris, and a host of special guests (Fat Joe, Busta Rhymes, Vado, Lloyd Banks, Baby, T-Pain and more.)

I actually missed the first hour and a half because of traffic. A 40 minute trip actually took me about 3 1/2hrs and don’t get me started about my 4hr ride home.

All in all I had a great time at the concert. I was disappointed in some of the performers, Nicki Minaj being one of them. She was really boring. I am not a fan and I was trying to give her the benefit of the doubt, but she has ZERO stage presence, Drake was pretty dry also smh. Trey Songz, Luda, Usher, and DJ Khaled (before he brought the hood out on stage *literally*) all did an excellent job. Here are a few pics:

This was at the end of the night….the wind got a hold on my pony tail..smh. I wore a pair of black culotte shorts (they are so comfy) and this black and white vintage print top with some black wedged sandals.

Performances

I was expecting a lot more from these two. Nicki Minaj’s shoe game is crazy!!! But I think that is what limits her performances because she can’t move in the shoes! She has to do better…

Trey delivered a great show…as usual. Some lucky fan actually got to go on stage with him! He sang all of his hits from Ready and gave an R rated sex demonstration…smh. Only Trey

I must say that DJ Khaled had one of the best song performances of the night. “All I Do Is Win” had the stadium rocking. all 55,000 hands went up and they stayed there (literally). Then he brought out the entire hood. There had to be at leat 100 goons on stage smh. Ludacris also had a great performance. He performed many of his hits and of course Nicki Minaj come out and they did “My Chick Bad.”

I was extremely excited to see Usher because I had never seen him in concert. I was upset at this little 35 minute teaser! I wanted more! He is truly talented! He is definitely one of the greatest performers. He performed many of my favorites like “Nice and Slow” “You Make Me Wanna” and of course my two favorite songs right now “OMG” and “There Goes My Baby.”

Despite missing the first few acts, I had a really great time.
