All the fashion and beauty speaking points you'll need for water-cooler clout.
This artist, named <strong>D'Manti</strong> made a misstep with the red tassel embellishments on this too-short, ahem, dress.
<strong>Porcelain Black</strong>, anyone? She's in a band called 'Porcelain and the Tramps', but we mostly like the eyewear.
This violet-tinted blonde is a swing and a HIT for <strong>Kelly Osbourne</strong>.
She's Russian, goes by the name of SASHA (Gradiva), and has an extremely awkward-looking gun arm, of sorts, that looks completely and utterly out of place.
<strong>Paris Hilton</strong> looks youthful, fresh and clean, nonetheless.
<strong>Bruno Mars</strong> looking dapper.
<strong>LL Cool J<strong>.
This artist named <strong>Bonnie McKee</strong> must not have a publicist.
Why so blue, <strong>Katy Perry</strong>? Just joking, you look nice.
Dear <strong>Nicki Minaj</strong>: While we can get behind you and your multiple musical personas, we cannot get behind this charade that is your outfit. Drop the pope and the red sating off at home, and come back as a normal MC that stars on other artists' tracks. Signed, everyone.
At this point, <strong>Fergie</strong> just looks funny. Not cool, just funny.
<strong>Kelly Rowland</strong> as Grecian goddess.
We're rooting for <strong>Rihanna's</strong> roots. Go go growth!
Clearly, <strong>Taylor Swift</strong>is working hard to shed her teen-y image by wearing a gown as ornate as this. It's perhaps more suitable for the Oscars, but it's lovely nevertheless.
What's big? Big is <strong>Diana Ross</strong> dripping in millions of diamonds. Yep. She's big.
Lovebirds <strong>Alicia Keys</strong> and <strong> Swizz Beatz</strong> look good despite numerous wardrobe abnormalities, like a purple suede coat on him and a kitschy pompadour on her.
We can't talk about <strong>Amber Rose</strong> without wincing but <strong>Wiz</strong>, on the other hand, looks wicked in the best of ways.
Oh no! <strong>Robyn</strong> made a misstep. Not the kind of misstep that only fans of khakis would deem to be true, but the kind that even we - fans of genuine originality - cannot get behind.
