    Editorial Advert: Jovani, Star Style | From Hippie to Classy

    They say shoes are a woman’s best friend; well consider the collection from Jovani her footwear’s fashion partner-in-crime. The design team at Jovani is well-known for their special knack for flawlessly marrying comfort and elegance. Women of every age fall in love Jovani’s long, stunning evening gowns, flirty party dresses and everything in between.

    Have you ever dreamt of becoming a pop star and every boy’s teenage dream? Well, you may not have the chops to become the next music icon, but who says you can’t dress like one? Pop princess, Katy Perry rocked one of Jovani’s dresses to the MTV Movie Awards with sultry style and her own dash of quirky glamour. This beautifully sequined dress accentuated the star’s mouth-watering curves with subtlety and class. Perry paired the dress with gray stilettos and electric blue hair, giving special emphasis to her unique, hippie style.

    Since most of us can’t pull off the blue hair, instead, you can opt for a classic updo to further highlight the design of this dress. The great thing about wearing sequins is that you don’t have to add any jewelry, which could be overkill. Also, try to keep your shoes simple, go for neutral tones like gray, gold or brown and keep the embellishments to a minimum to avoid over-accessorizing this look.  Snag Katy’s dress here.

    If you’re a little more on the conservative side, maybe Katy Perry’s style is not for you. But that doesn’t mean that you can’t still indulge in a dress drowned in shimmer. In November 2012, Carrie Underwood stunned the fashion police in a gorgeous Jovani evening dress and metallic heels. This dress is not only a head-turner; it’s also super comfortable, allowing you to move around freely. Who says fashion has to be painful? Click here to come close to Carrie’s classic style. Again, it’s best not to accessorize too much when wearing this piece due to its very pronounced sequin detailing. Opt for simple heels in neutral tones to best compliment this sparkly piece.

    Who can take their eyes off of Channing Tatum, named by People Magazine as the Sexiest Man Alive in 2012? Well, we can look but we can’t touch because he’s taken by the lovely Jenna Dewan-Tatum. The couple was spotted in October 2012 with the actress wearing a simple, yet chic Jovani dress. While you can’t officially become Mrs. Tatum, you can look like her in this equally striking garment. This beautifully-embroidered dress represents both elegance and simplicity. It has a round neckline and unlike Jenna’s dress, a sleeveless top. Accessorize this piece with a set of bangles and a pair of plain black heels to create the dramatic look that you’ve been longing for.

    If its variation that you want, the Jovani collection can certainly cater to your fashion needs. Whether you’re a lively teen or fabulous at 40, the timeless diversity of the Jovani line will certainly suit your style as it ranges all the way from hippie to classy.

      Style Stalking: #CoachellaLive Celebrity Style Recap

      coachellagood 1024x637 Style Stalking: #CoachellaLive Celebrity Style Recap The mornings were blazing hot, the nights were shivering cold, but the celeb style at Coachella was just plain cool.With the lingering nostalgia of the spring music festival still in the air, POSHGLAM brings you a recap of the Coachella celebrity style radar. Most of these stars nailed the Coachella look, while others failed it.

      Victoria’s Secret angel Alessandra Ambrosio looked casually gorgeous wearing a creme Rebecca Taylor sundress with brown boots. She accessorized with her arm candy, Jamie Mazur and cooled off with O.N.E. Coconut Water.

      Katy Perry looked like an elephant hippie princess (remember Barbar?) in her ankle-length Dolce & Gabbana lace sundress with polka dot headdress tied in a bow. She matched the look with a yellow crossbody hobo and gold gladiator sandals. Such a flawless look.

      The queen of boho-chic, Nicole Richie, attended the Mulberry party at Coachella wearing Mulberry Annie Blouse in Pumpkin Feathered Friends with denim shorts and the Heritage Bayswater Satchel in Pheasant Green.

      coachellabad 1024x581 Style Stalking: #CoachellaLive Celebrity Style Recap

      Kirsten Dunst attended the Lacoste L!ve Pool Party on the last day of Coachella wearing Ray Ban sunglasses, a casual black blouse and denim shorts. As usual, Dunst looked plain, but we love her Ralph Lauren Collection calfskin crossbody bag in tan. She posed with Alexander Skarsgard, who attended the festival with his girlfriend Kate Bosworth. Dunst’s bag is a perfect catch all for all the music festival essentials, and is compact enough as to not get in the way.

      Jessica Szohr looked not-so-gorgeous in an Express cropped jumpsuit, black hat and oversized MJ black handbag. OK, so the picture was snapped at an awful angle and she was the unsuspecting victim of the photographer, but she wore way too much black for a spring music festival. The jumpsuit is a nice jumpsuit, but Szohr should have added some color and prints to the mix. A colorful purse (Circa 2011) and hair accessory (i.e. pony tail holder) would have done the trick. A smaller bag would have lightened the look, she looks like she is trudging her carry-on through the airport. Is she missing a fingernail? One of her nails is white, while the rest are ruby red. Let’s try it again next year, Jessica.

      Apparently Whit Port and Ken broke up, she typically looks adorable, however her Coachella getup, screams “IT’s OVER”. Whitney is usually classy, with “usually” and “classy” competing for the operative word. She wore a pair of Express floral shorts with a white top and oversized grey shirt tied on the side TOTALLY 80s style, all she needed was a neon scrunchie. She could have done without the grey shirt and uh, I just broke up with my beau attitude. It was a little too 90s and sloppy, it hung off her body, like she was courting anorexia and she paired it with olive boots. Expensive sandals would have added a high-class flirt to the otherwise uber feminine touch, or a pair of nude oxfords to upgrade the oh so cheap, chic.

      This is only the start of music festival season, so hopefully those that were falling behind step up their game. Next stop: Bonnaroo.

        REPORT Footwear Brings Stylish Comfort With Spring/Summer Collection

        reportshoes 609x1023 REPORT Footwear Brings Stylish Comfort With Spring/Summer Collection

        Style and comfort usually don’t go hand in hand. REPORT Footwear disagrees with the pain equals beauty stigma. The shoe brand focuses on cutting-edge designs that appeal to a wide range of women with quality, style, and yes, comfort.

        Each season REPORT Footwear introduces casual and dressy styles using contemporary silhouettes and unique materials. A wide selection of pumps, flats, sandals and boots boast an architectural appeal that incorporate inspiration from art, music and the urban culture of the brand’s birthplace, Seattle. Being from Seattle doesn’t hinder the brand’s global presence, especially in the celebrity world. REPORT Footwear has been seen on stars such as Olivia Munn, Kim Kardashian, Vanessa Hudgens, Katy Perry, Mena Suvari and Keri Hilson. Khloe Kardashian, whose shoe closet made us gasp, also owns pairs from REPORT.

        The REPORT brand has two lines: REPORT which offers trendy, functional styles for the modern girl, and REPORT Signature which offers sophisticated styles for the confident, stylish woman.

        The Calyer style in brown is a standout in the Spring/Summer 2011 collection. The pump takes a fresh approach to the caged look, with a leather design that looks like bamboo or straw. The 5-inch heel and hidden platform are perfect for the vertically challenged.

        The Ainslie wedge is the style you must have for spring. Available in black and tan, pair this shoe with wide leg trousers. For a dressier look, we’re loving the Parker3, a sparkly satin pump in nude or grey, studded to dazzle up your wardrobe. These shoes are versatile and can be worn with jeans, a skirt, shorts or a dress. To add some color to your shoe closet, try the Carle in red. This wooden heel platform is another versatile piece and the color is great for the sunny seasons. The Carle is also available in black and camel.

        REPORT Footwear is available at major department stores, specialty boutiques and online. If you’re in the Washington area, visit REPORT Footwear’s first retail location which opened last summer. For more information or to shop the collection, visit www.reportshoes.com.

            The stars pulled out all the stops at the 2011 People’s Choice Awards. The host of the show, Queen Latifah, started it off in a turquoise ombre chiffon gown from Georges Chakra’s Spring 2011 collection. She looked stunning and really made a big fashion statement for the night. Next up is everyone’s favorite, Leighton Meester, who rocked a grey dress with floral embroidery from Vionnet’s Spring 2011 collection. Definitely one of the most unique looks of the night and she accessorized with orange Cathy Waterman earrings and “Elle” heels from Brian Atwood.

            Ashley Tisdale gave a bohemian chic look in a strapless printed gown from Farah Angsana’s Spring 2011 collection, while Emma Roberts went for all black in a ruffled minidress from the Spring 2011 collection from Christian Dior. She accessorized with 18k rose gold “Planetary” earrings from Carla Amorim, “Maniac” pumps from Brian Atwood and a black clutch from Miu Miu. Jennifer Aniston went for the menswear-inspired look that was so prevalent on the red carpet at the conclusion of 2010 with a black vest and pants from Dolce & Gabbana. Despite the fact that she is in all black again with her never-changing hairstyle, she looks great and the pieces are perfectly tailored to fit her lean physique.

            There couldn’t be an awards show without Kim Kardashian being present and she was there in full force in a gold dress by Malandrino. She shortened the dress’ length as it has been previously worn by the designer herself as well as Mary J. Blige and Drew Barrymore. She accessorized with an 18K Gold Square Link Necklace from Rina Limor ($4500) and a Chanel clutch. Katy Perry went the opposite route and went for fun, fun and more fun in a turquoise and magenta gown from Betsey Johnson’s Spring 2011 collection. Her sky high pink Casadei pumps were the perfect accessories. Our favorite almost-vampire, Kristen Stewart, chose a dress from Reem Acra’s Spring 2011 collection: a form-fitting gold sequin number that showed off her legs. It wouldn’t have hurt her to try an updo or glam makeup, but I somehow feel that she’s taking the Johnny Depp approach and saying “Eff Hollywood”. Funny because even he put on a suit for the show.

            Country songbird Taylor Swift chose a peach pleated dress from J.Mendel’s Spring 2011 collection. She accessorized with Gold Victorian Earrings with Diamonds from Amrapali and beige suede heels from Prada. “Pretty Little Liars” star Lucy Hale chose a mustard satin dress from Ronald Abdala and accessorized with champagne Swarovski Crystal Heels from Rene Caovilla. For jewelry she went Amrapali all the way: a 14k Gold Diamond Necklace, 14K Gold Diamond Drop Earrings and a Diamond Bangle.

            Last, but not least are two celebrities who chose Paule Ka: Ashley Benson and Selena Gomez. Benson chose a one shoulder black and white printed cocktail dress from the Cruise 2011 collection, while Gomez rocked a one shoulder pink cocktail dress with ruffle detailing from the Spring 2011 collection. Both great choices and a sure sign of tons of Paule Ka on the red carpet to come.
