Stylehive’s Primetime Emmy Awards Red Carpet Report!

Despite various teleprompter mishaps, the overuse of the Kanye interruption joke, and the Sarah McLachlan-induced sob fest, the 61st Primetime Emmy Awards still managed to be hotter than hot (both literally and figuratively — apparently the weather was beyond sweaty)! While 30 Rock and Madmen took home the night’s biggest prizes (surprise, surprise), everyone was a winner on the red carpet (well, nearly everyone). Blake Lively looked like her typical glamazon self in a gorgeous red gown with a seriously plunging neckline and Kim Kardashian’s dress was so skintight, she reportedly had to be sewn into it (it was worth it)! Even primetime’s funny gals like Alyson Hannigan and Jenna Fischer glammed it up Cinderella-style in dazzling strapless floor-length numbers. Checkout the slideshow at Stylehive’s blog to see how some of TV’s leading ladies rocked the red carpet last night!

Get Physical In Fall’s Gym-Inspired Looks

Posted on 08 September 2009 by Angelique

090309-oak

You don’t have to run marathons or have a relationship with the Stairmaster to appreciate fall’s athletic-inspired looks. Just look at Isabel Marant’s fall ‘09 runway, where sweatshirt tees go from gym to glam when paired with layered skirts and embellished ankle boots. Alexander Wang has been taking sweatpants out of the gym for a few seasons now, and given their slouchy, not sloppy cut, they could almost pass as dress pants if worn with heels and a blazer- just don’t tell your boss you slept in them the night before. On a budget? American Eagle and Free People can hook you up without the pricey membership. The key is to look for pieces with unexpectedly luxe touches (like cashmere or sequins), or pair casual ones with something more polished- in other words, leave the sneakers at home.

Silk tie-dye maxi dress - $188

The hot trend for maxi dresses is still going strong for spring and summer of 2009. This year’s maxi dresses feature block colors, graphic prints, tie dye, and ombre effects. Maxi dresses can go from super casual to super dressy, from the most casual summer picnic to the most fabulous summer wedding.
On the casual end of the spectrum, this silk tie-dye dress by Victoria’s Secret has a gorgeous hippie vibe that won’t take the focus away from you. With an empire waist and a 41” length (from the natural waist), this dress would be a fabulous and versatile garment to pack for your summer vacation!

Be Your Own Style Icon & Create Your Style With Yoana Baraschi And Black Halo

Posted on 07 August 2008 by Jacqueline H

Be your own style icon! And create a unique style just for you. Today we are featuring classic designer Yoana Baraschi, paired with pearls. Or get a more casual approach with a Black Halo dress and silver flats. Either way, you’re going to look good!

Yoana Baraschi has wonderfully cut designs. And her choice of metallic grays is very eye catching. Though her designs are simple. You can still feel like a movie star in one of her garments. This dress is high fashion! I love the fit, color, and style! This will look great with pumps and into fall with a great pair of black boots! My Star suggestions who would wear her designs are Katie Holmes, Nicole Kidman, Christina Applegate, and Paris Hilton.

Black Halo has some really fabulous designs. And their outfits can look great at the office or for any evening event. Now you’re looking haute couture! Here are my favorite picks.

Beautify your whole look with double strand pearls. As you know Pearls are up there with diamonds. Hence a girls best friend.

Ace This Look: Get Your Funk On With Jeans, Pep Toe Booties, & Miu Miu

Posted on 31 July 2008 by Jacqueline H

We all wonder what to wear sometimes. And each day brings with it a new evaluation of our wardrobe. But I love weekends, as it means getting away from the office. And doing something different. Showing your style for that fun weekend at a party, club or restaurant. Means that it is time to shine! Today we’ve got some great ideas for that cool end of summer weekend.

Graphic tee with ruched side
Graphic Tee only $19.99

This fashionably graphic tee, is great to have fun in and is excellent paired with waist high jeans. Dress it up or down. This look is great from daytime shopping with girlfriends. To going straight to the club! Wear it casually with jeans, or wear it as a hot dress with pumps for an evening look.

High waist jean
High Waist Skinny Jean – Teen Clothing by Wet $39.50

Pair that cool graphic tee with a dark skinny jean. That way it looks great from a day outfit to an evening look if you so wish. Having a daring pair of shoes to accompany this whole outfit is where the fun starts. Try these on for style!

Red Pointed Toe Ankle Bootie Heel Pump
Red pointed toe bootie heel pump retails for only $21.99

Red pep toe booties

Finish the look with a well chosen Miu Miu handbag. I like the look of a contemporary feel to a Miu Miu bag. This accents the glam of the tee and striking shoes.

Miu Miu handbag
Go contemporary with Miu Miu for only $165.00

But however you feel to mix your wardrobe up this weekend, remember to have fun with it and get your funk on!
