Grammy Awards 2013 Best Dressed

For me, the 55th Annual Grammy Awards this year were exciting... mainly because of the red carpet looks, of course. Divided opinions flew across Twitter and blogs but regardless, I felt that I was liking the majority of the outfits I saw. This year, a few singers really shocked me, cough Janelle Monae and Kelly Rowland, as to how elegantly they dressed. I mean I know this is The Grammys but... wow. 

Hands down, my favourite look of the night came from the gorgeous Rihanna who looked slimmer than ever in a Azzedine Alaia dress. The scarlet red matched her bold lips. Props to whoever styled her hair too, I love it long and luscious! We're seeing something fairly new from Rihanna. She looks sophisticated and "older" than some of her previous Grammy looks. Definitely agreeable. 

Beyonce looked simple and classy in an Osman monochrome jumpsuit. This is bang on trend but I do agree that for The Grammys, maybe a dress would've been more suitable. I can't disagree with this outfit though, she rocked it.

Adele looked cute and very Mary Poppins in her custom Valentino couture gown which was modified to be shorter than the original catwalk length. I'm not 100% sure about this dress. She looks cute and I'm glad she steered away from black but it may not have flattered her in the best way. 

Jennifer Lopez looks radiant and sexy in a black Anthony Vaccarello gown. She worked this Angelina Jolie-inspired look with confidence. Not many people can pull this off but her killer thighs made it possible. 

Katy Perry looking chic and curvacious in a Gucci S/S 2013 dress. Love the tight fit on the bodice and the  eye-popping cleavage. The sea green was worn by no other. Her hair looks beautiful too in jet black. 

Kelly Rowland blew me away with this Georges Chakra black gown. I''m not too sure about the hair but the dress is flawless. Love the cutout detailing. It's sexy but demure enough for the Grammys. Her figure looks fantastic as the cutouts highlight her curves. 

Janelle Monae looks sharp and sassy with this Black tuexdo. The gold details on the blazer add so much elegance and richness to the look. 

In a J. Mendel S/S 2013 gown in pristine white, Taylor Swift looked angelic as ever. Loved the  T bar detail  on the neck and the draping of the fabric towards the torso.
