Red Carpet Alert!: Proenza Schouler

Thank goodness Monday is over. Only four more days until Friday! From the comments left in my last post I realize that I'm not alone in my active loathing of Mondays. Today is a post about one of my favorite brands! Yes, of course I mean Proenza Schouler.

Miley Cyrus [left] and Jessica Alba [right] both in Proenza Schouler.

Miley Cyrus looks roker in her loose fitting tank and unique leggings. She's still trying to distance herself from her Hannah Montana image with a style that is more than a little rough around the edges. Sometimes she goes a bit over board but this is just enough rock and roll for me. Jessica's look is one of my absolute favorites! A digital print sheath with matching shoes. So adorable.

Chloe Sevigny [left] and Kate Bosworth [right] both in Proenza Schouler.

Chloe Sevigny is known for her acting but more so for her trend-setting styles. She looks stunning in two classic PS pieces. Feeling bold? Follow Chloe's lead and wear socks with shoes other than your running sneakers. Kate Bosworth stood out in this dress. Although I wish the background were a different color, there is no denying she looks stunning. I want that striped piece for my closet. If only I had an event to wear it to...

Anna Paquin [left] and Rashida Jones [right] both in Proenza Schouler.

Anna Paquin stole my heart in this cobalt blue number. It was so traditional and yet unique at the same time. I think the texture of the fabric. She completed the look with simple patent leather heels and I wouldn't change a thing! Rashida Jones' style is starting to grow on me. I haven't seen much of her work but this girl can work a red carpet. Pair a simple grey top with a digital print PS mini skirt. Add shunky heels and the look is complete. I really like her makeup and hair too.

I'm in a musical rutt. The same songs playing on my iPod time after time. What are you listening to right now? Please leave any suggestions in the comments. I would be so grateful! Thanks. And I'll see you guys tomorrow. Oh! And happy 1/11/11. I can't wait until 11/11/11. :)

Anna Paquin: Vamps Have Style Too

  You may know Anna Paquin from her role in the X-Men trilogy, or for her Academy Award winning role in The Piano [she was eleven]. But her most current claim to fame is her role as Sookie Stackhouse in the successful TV-series, True Blood.

She has had both commercial and critical acclaim. Not always the easy in the fickle world of Hollywood. She has been both a blonde and a brunette since her days as a child star. And her fashion has evolved from little girl to confident and capable woman.

Anna sizzles in a two-toned Proenza Schouler look. Who said blue leather was a bad thing? Those people have obviously never seen this creation. Her makeup is dark and sexy--fitting since she's at the season three premiere of True Blood. The look is undeniably edgy. Her hair is stringy and looks like she just rolled out of bed. The simple heels, clutch, and bangles don't take any attention for this scene stealing number. Perfection!!

This Marios Scwab dress is right on trend with the digital print. The reds, blues, and black could easily overwhelm Anna's small frame but she pulls the look together with soft, tousled waves and simple makeup. The diamond necklace is a bit much because this dress makes such an impact, it doesn't really need accessories. But her shoes were the perfect choice. They're made up of straight lines that wonderfully contrast the chaos of the digital print.

Anna is perfectly laid back as she takes her dog out for a walk. The hairband keeps her locks out of her face but is much more appropriate than a bun or pony tail. Her striped top is nautically inspired and looks as if it was made to be worn with her navy blue mini skirt. The silver flats--bot practical and fashion--add a bit of excitement to a mostly neutral look.

This look is a knock-out. From the fit, to the cut, to the color. There is nothing about this dress that is subtle. It demands attention in a great way. She threw it into a messy bun with a wisps of hair to frame her face. This shows off the amazing cut of this gown; highlighting Anna's toned arms and shoulders. Finally Anna threw on a simple pair of black pumps because that was all her outfit needed.
