So lets start off with the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. As much as there is to say about the sexy winged lingerie outfits that the angels sport on the runway, I have so much more to say about the fashion that was rocked at the after party on the "pink carpet". Most of the fashion was a little too scandalous for my personal taste, but some of the looks screamed classy sex appeal and I must give these ladies some credit! Here are my top 2 stand out classy ladies of the night.
1. Karlie Kloss: Rocking a Cushnie et Ochs white dress, Karlie was a vision of ultimate sexy sophistication. Although, the under boob in this frock is a bit much for my usual taste, because Karlie has such a "model figure" it actually works in her favor. With such a tall, tiny figure, showing off a little of whatever curves she does have is most certainly allowed. The just below the knee length of this dress keeps it from being too over the top sexy, plus her lack of accessories and simple black stilettos keep the look classy and simple with everything going on up top.

2. Monika Jagaciak: So, I wasn't going to post this look because after looking and looking and looking and looking and looking and looking and looking...... you get it... I just could not find the designer of the dress. I love to give credit to the designers because they worked so hard creating their pieces, but this dress was just too perfect not to add to this post. So, if anyone happens to know the designer, feel free to share your knowledge with me! Please! There are so many different cuts to the "oh so famous" little black dress, but this week, this cut is my favorite. I love the plunging neckline, swanky straps and conservative length. The contrasting fabric combined with the flare right below the knee gives that extra edge to a rather plain frock. Her effortless hair and lack of accessories say I'm sexy but I don't have to try to be and her classic black pumps compliment the simplicity in her style. Needless to say, simple and classic always wins in my book. I LOVE LOVE LOVE, did I say LOVE this look? Okay, I love it. Photo Credit (www.zimbio.com)
Switching gears to premiers (haha I rhymed. Go me!) Hunger Games: Catching Fire began their red carpet sweep across the world this week. I must say that I am slightly disappointed in the looks J. Law is giving us, but once again, extremely wowed by Elizabeth Banks and her killer fashion sense. E. Banks showed up J. Law in last years premiere's of the first Hunger Games movie but I was expecting Ms. Lawrence to come back with a vengeance on the red carpet this time around. I will still be watching for J. Law to step it up a notch in the upcoming premieres but as of now Ms. Banks is the fashionista on top. Here is how they are pairing up so far.
3. Elizabeth Banks: Donning an Elie Saab Couture number at the Berlin premiere of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, E. Banks looks elegant and sophisticated in this sparkly gown. She kept it simple with neutral makeup, a glitzy clutch and glamorous loose waves. It seems as though Elie Saab is Elizabeth's go to designer for red carpet success. I distinctly remember two stellar Elie Saab looks that Ms. Banks rocked at last years premiere's of The Hunger Games. So kudos for having a designer relationship that works to your style benefit E. Banks; You most certainly have my stamp of fashion approval! Photo Credit (www.tomandlorenzo.com)
4. Jennifer Lawrence: She got it right in Rome. Sad to say but as of now, this is the only premiere gown that I am excited about. She obviously chose to wrap herself in a Dior Haute Couture gown. I understand that she is the new face of the brand, but it seems as though she will not wear any other designer. I can appreciate loyalty, but at the expense of your costar showing you up night after night, maybe it's time to try out some Prabal Gurung or Vera Wang for a change. This look shows off her beautiful soft curves while still having some modern architecture to it. The pale tone of the gown with the bright lip and new short hair J. Law is rocking create the perfect look. Now if she could only create more looks as stellar as this in her upcoming premieres I will be one happy J. Law fan!

Moving along to my other favorite look of the week, a little street style for your soul.
5. Rachel Zoe: This blue suit could be risky to wear as a street style look, but considering it is styled to perfection, I just adore it. She donned this exquisite look at the Giambattista Valli Spring 2013 Presentation at Paris Fashion Week. This suit is from her own collection which is probably why she was so precise when accessorizing this look. Black top, black bag, gold layered chain and chic sunglasses; this outfit is chic sophisticated boho and I cannot get enough. Rachel Zoe; you are queen. Photo Credit (www.elle.com)
I hope this was enough stellar fashion to finish off your work week. Any celebrity styles you come across that you would like to see featured in this blog? Comment below! Until next time..
Xoxo,
