2015 MTV VMA's

The VMA's brings out the celebrity world's wild side, where baring all and colour clashing is allowed. I love the experimentation seen in the fashion on the red carpet at this event, its as though the stars let loose at the VMA's and show their true emotions.

I was quite surprised at the choices a few well recognised people made including
 Taylor Swift, who decided this cheap looking ensemble matched with heavy eyeliner was an appropriate outfit to accept her award in. This outfit isn't flattering at all and the accessories and hair really don't improve the ugly sequinned pattern at all in my opinion.




















And Justin Beiber has gone for this new hairstyle which makes him look like a drug addict, pretty boy (not to say that he isn't either of those things) but surely with access to all those stylists he would've done something to contain that ugly mop.

On the other hand, I wasn't surprised at all by Miley, Britney and Nikki's outfits.



All looking like aliens with all the sparkles and skin baring.

I think Miley's hair was unnecessary and believe dreadlocks weren't a good choice. I also think she would've looked better with a nude lip. Britney was in fine form with her boobs popping from her dress and a school-girl smile. I think her shoes were a bad choice and maybe next time she should consider sizing up. Nikki actually looks alright and I think gold goes really nice with her skin tone, have to hand it to her for pulling something like this off.

A few other sparkly lookers seen on the night were
 Frankie Grande, although I think the glitter works for him. 

And of course, Baddie Winkle taking the sneaker trend to the red carpet in yet another sparkly outfit. 

There were a few trends resurrected last night as well including;
Double denim, pulled off by Pharrel Williams and Helen Lasichanh.

And looking like something out of a packet, Amber Rose and her gang tried to pull of the Barbie look.

There were many who looked like they were meant to be on the red carpet and not on another planet, these are a few I thought looked rather dashing;

























Amanda Steele (left) pulls off this two piece with slicked back hair, minimal makeup, plain heels and a small chain, which makes her look edgy and put together.

Arielle Vandenburg (right) looks lush in this velvet midi dress with the messy locks and strappy sandals topping it off. She shows a bit of skin but stills looks elegant and classy.

























Austin Butler (left) went for a classic suit and I think it looks great! The VMA's don't seem like a super classy event and I think the casual but handsome approach was perfect. Maybe a little chopping to the hair would've been nice but that's coming from someone who isn't a fan of the surfy mop. 

Vanessa Hudgens (right) looks very bohemian in this pink gown with flowers in her wavy, long hair, which I think is very her style. 




















Kelly Osborne (left) still keeps her retro style whilst looking dressy and appropriate in this piece, I think she really suits the undercut look.

Rita Ora (right) still went for something different but I think she looks pretty good due to the way she styled the dress. I like the slicked hair look with the dark eyes but would've preferred less boobage. 

There's an amateurs opinion on the fashion at the VMA's this year, you'll probably read on Facebook or in a magazine that Amanda Steele was the worst dressed and Britney looked incredible.

Fan Girling

Nicole Richie

I have recently found myself fan girling like crazy over this fantastic woman. From the early days of 'the Simple Life' until now I have found myself becoming more and more obsessed with Nicole. Everything about her is admirable.

Her fashion sense is clearly tops:


 I love her classy take on casual; she looks effortless but still has made obvious decisions when choosing her outfit. She always dresses for occasion and is so versatile with her style, never sticking to one genre.

Being so amazingly gorgeous obviously helps in making any outfit look incredible too.

I'm personally not a fan of the current House of Harlow 1960 collection but really appreciate the shapes and simplicity of the pieces. The style is very bohemian, similarly with her 2010 Winter Kate collection, whereas I prefer her more recent style including blazers, mesh, and block colours, which is more edgy and timeless.

Definitely taking style tips from this goddess.


Nicole is incredibly talented and has such an intriguing personality. Not only is she a style icon but also an author, actress, and television personality. I love her fun personality and bubbly nature, she always seems to be having the best time and getting so much out of life.

When (if) I grow up, I want to be Nicole Richie.

If you haven't watched an episode of Candidly Nicole I suggest you go and do so and I'm almost certain you'll become a fan girl/guy just like I have.
