My Top 5 Best Dressed At The 2015 CMT Music Awards

If you follow my blog ( DoTube On The Red Carpet,) you would know I have been talking about the different degrees of the infamous Red Carpet! What may be appropriate on the Red Carpet at the people's choice awards may not always be appropriate for the Red Carpet at the Oscars!

But this is the Red Carpet at the music awards so it's a lot more casual and versatile, it's where leather meets lace, denim meets diamonds and if your Lady GaGa it's where raw meat meets flesh and bone if that makes any sense? and because it's the country music awards you may see a little more cowboy hats and western style on the Red Carpet which in this case is perfectly acceptable!

As you will see in my My Top 5 Best Dressed At The 2015 CMT Music Awards I went with the short and sassy one piece dresses with easy hair and clean makeup, and of course there is always an exception to the rule.So put on your cow girl hat and play some Willy Nelson music and enjoy the review!

Yes I realize Will Nelson has not release an album in 20 years but I'm a old school country boy!

( My Opinion )

 All the glitz without the drama! 
Beautiful gold beaded dress with a great length and seer in all the right spots. A simple ponytail keeps the look young, a nude lip clean makeup and smokey eyes makes her Red Carpet ready!

( My Opinion )

Simplicity is key in this fashion statement!

White criss cross neckline with triangle center cutout on top and A-line cocktail length on bottom. Hair is soft and part in the middle which looks very neutral.Silver accessories like pumps,clutch and expensive diamond jewelry really makes this star shine!

( My Opinion )

  Did someone say 1960's chic?! 

A long tee-shirt silhouette with silver bling embellishments on shoulders and sleeves. Frosted pink lips and double eyelashes is paying the perfect homage to the worlds first supper model twiggy!  Her long wavy hair,big hoop earrings, rhinestone clutch and high polished silver platforms really makes this a complete 1960's chic look!   

CARRIE UNDERWOOD She's back! After a post-baby red carpet hiatus, she looks hotter than ever in a sexy white Thomas Wylde mini with a Deepa Gurnani clutch.

( My Opinion )

Honesty is the best policy!

To be very honest I'm not a fan of the dress, it's way to short and what I hope is shoulder pads are way to big! the material looks a little cheap also. So you might be wondering how did she make my top 5 best dressed? Well it's simple, this type of material is very unforgiving, it shows every bump and imperfection on a women's body, maybe only 5% of the women in america could wear this type of dress ( of course that's my own statistics ) but it seams correct to me! So to answer your question? she looks amazing in a dress that's almost impossible to look good in! not a bump or imperfection to be found, the hair looks flawless and her smile brightens up the room! Because of these factors I feel validated in my decision to add her to my top 5 best dressed.

( My Opinion )

My exception to the rule! 

As you may know I'm a big advocate for age appropriate dressing as well as body conscious dressing, not to say there isn't any big women who can't rock a mini or form fitted dress because lord knows there is! My rule of thumb is this, KNOW WHAT LOOKS GOOD ON YOU! not everyone looks good in the latest trends and styles. That's why this exception to the rule made my top 5 best dressed, her fashion statement says I don't need to wear short and sassy, I can wear glamorous and voluptuous and still knock them dead on the Red Carpet! and she did, I love this black satin halter dress with beautiful art work on the bottom and cinched in waist.The pop of color on her lips, soft hair and bling dangling earrings makes her a true fashionista! 

Well I hoped you enjoyed My Top 5 Best Dressed At The 2015 CMT Music Awards!

My Top 5 Best Dressed At The 2015 TONY AWARDS!

As I had said in my last post ( My Picks For CFDA ) there are different degrees of the infamous Red Carpet!
There are different styles of dressing for different Red Carpet occasions, some allowed a person to project their own style while other demand the highest quality of couture gowns and high paid stylist!

Well since this is The Tony Awards which honor the actors and actresses of  Broadway theater this Red Carpet is very sophisticated and proper! You should NOT see ostrich features / boas, ultra mini cocktail, neon colors, cut outs, see through or outlandish dresses, of course this is just my opinion and there is an exception to every rule.

As you will see I went with the sophisticated, proper and classic fashions which no one could ever go wrong with on the Red Carpet, So I hope you enjoy my top 5 Best Dressed in no particular order!

Jennifer Lopez Tony Awards Red Carpet 2015

( My opinion )

Miss Jlo does it again! I love this gown from the color, to the dark gold spangles, the cut across the bust and length of the gown! I love the way her light skin tone looks behind this shade of navy blue. Her dark burgundy lips, smokey eyes and gold high lights that match the gold spangles in the dress are superb! The small matching clutch is also a great touch. So it's no surprise when I say she looks amazing as always!

HELEN MIRREN Tony Awards Red Carpet 2015

( My Opinion )

I'm a big advocate when it comes to age appropriate dressing, even though there are some women in their 50's/60's who are in better shape than some women in their 30's/40's, I just believer it's the proper etiquette for the Red Carpet.That's why I had to pick Helen Mirren! even though she has a body that any age woman would kill for, she decide to go with a sophisticated and age appropriate gown.The subtle plunge line and short bob haircut keeps her looking fresh and modern, while the exquisite beading around the neck and waist line and sheer draping sleeves with beautiful embroidery makes this elegant off white gown a real fashion moment! 

GRETCHEN MOL It's a slinky black gown for the star. Kevin Mazur/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions

GRETCHEN MOL Tony Awards Red Carpet 2015

 ( My Opinion )

Some of the best advice I could give any women who says she's wearing a black dress is, 
MAKE SURE IT'S A GORGEOUS BLACK DRESS!!
Black could get a little boring and blend in the crowd, that's why it should be a knock out!And by all means Gretchen Mol high shine black one shoulder dress is amazing! This is exactly what I meant when I made the above statement, now this type of shiny material cloud sometimes come across like lingerie, but her pop of color lipstick, up hairdo and stylish accessories like dangling earring, statement cocktail ring and black clutch makes this black dress Red Carpet ready!

JENNIFER NETTLE Tony Awards Red Carpet 2015

 ( My Opinion )

When I hear the words sophisticated and elegant images of silk, chiffon, diamonds and champagne pop in my head! So of course a dress made up of all those elements like Jennifer Nettles wore on the Red Capet would have to be in my top 5 best dressed! I am speechless about this throwback to old Hollywood glamour look! the fit and flow is flawless ( try to say that fast 3 times in a row ) and the Audrey Hapburn hair and makeup is timeless, Absolutely love this!  

   

JUDITH LIGHT Found: The most sophisticated white lace jumpsuit to hit the red carpet yet! Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions

JUDITH LIGHT Tony Awards Red Carpet 2015

( My Opinion )

 Like I said in my opening statement there is always an exception to the rule, especially when it comes to the ones you love! Being a 80's kid I was and still am a big fan of Judith Light from TV's sitcom Who's The Boss? She played Angela Bower the queen of ready to wear, any time she walked on the TV screen she was styled from heard to toe, always looking rich and beautiful with expensive ensembles and fashionable accessories, Ok I had a bit of a crush on her ( Still Do ) I believe if Angela Bower the president of Bower agency would have walk the Red Carpet today this is exactly what she would had worn! A chic wide leg white jumpsuit with lace top which is also runs down the sides of the pants. Her signature blond hair was just as sleek and cool as the jumpsuit it self, some bling accessorizes and large white clutch completes the Red Carpet look which needs no shoulder pads or Tony Micelli thank you very much!

My Picks For Best Dressed At The 2015 CFDA FASHION AWARDS!

When People hear the word RED CARPET they automatically think long elegant dresses which is true, but not in every case. You see as any real fashion lover knows there are many degrees of the infamous Red Carpet, like the red carpet at The Oscars is much different from the red carpet at The Met Gala, and totally different from the red carpet at the people's choice and music awards! 

You could wear an amazing couture gown on the red carpet at The Oscars and be on all best dressed list, or wear the same dress at the people's choice awards and be on all worst dress list! it's just that complex. In my eyes The Red Carpet at the CFDA | COUNCIL OF FASHION DESIGNERS OF AMERICA is a whole other type of Red Carpet, because the CFDA is honoring the amazing and talented designers who design for the Red Carpet on any degree all over the world! 

So all bets are off when it comes to styling, editorial and couture fashions, that's why some of my picks are out of the box as far as the traditional Red Carpets goes. Because this award is honoring the art of design more than the latest fashion trends it gives the individual the freedom to express their personal style on the Red Carpet, which is more exciting to me than a fashion robot who only wears what people tell them to wear! So I hope you guys like My Picks For Best Dressed At The 2015 CFDA FASHION AWARDS!
