Pompadour Parade

There were a lot of interesting hairstyles present last week at the Grammy's. But one specific style stood out among the rest -- the POMPADOUR. This got me thinking; did anybody else notice the abundance of pompadours at the Grammy's this year? Because I certainly did! And while some of them were a success, not all were. (Especially one colored in blue.) Here's just a few photos of the best and the worst from the Grammy's. And I even found a tutorial on how to re-create Alicia Keys' awesome, upside down french braided look. I personally felt that both Alicia and Bruno really pulled this look off successfully. Alicia in a more modernized and sleek way, and Bruno in a sophisticated, throw-back way... However, I thought that Katy's was just too gimicky and not nearly as impressive as the other two. Not to mention when she let her hair down later in the show into a weird, crimpy mess.

WHO DO YOU THINK WORE IT BEST?

Lack of fashion at AMA's

What did you think about the overall fashions at the American Music Awards tonight? I must admit that I wasn't all that impressed. While this isn't the most formal of all the award shows, it is still an opportunity to have fun with your outfit and get creative with your clothes. I thought most of the stage outfits especially were somewhat cheesy and the artists in the audience didn't do much for me either. I saw a lot of short black/white dresses on the red carpet, nothing special. I wonder why everyone looked so bland? Perhaps it had to do with the absence of Gaga?

If you think differently, give me your top choices for the show. Perhaps I have overlooked a few well-dressed people...?
