What They Should Be Wearing- SAG Awards

2012-01-27T21:11:00.000-05:00

I love awards season! To me nothing is better than watching my favorite celebrities strut their stuff down the red carpet while wearing a fabulous gown. The other week I watched the Golden Globes and thought most of the celebs looked okay...but some of them just looked like they were playing it safe. I'm super excited to see what they will be wearing to the Oscars. But I'm getting ahead of myself. This Sunday is the SAG Awards and I'm spending my Friday evening thinking of what my favorite actresses ~~will be wearing~~ should be wearing.

Sofia Vergara's curves would look amazing in this Zac Posen gown.

I would love to see Kaley Cuoco in a bold color to keep her look young and fun. This Christian Dior dress would be fantastic on her.

This red Elie Saab gown would be perfection on Julie Bowen. I think it would look so great with her blonde hair.

The vintage feel to this Reem Acra would be so beautiful on Michelle Williams.

Emma Stone would look breathtaking in this Badgley Mischka gown.

What do you think of my picks? What do you hope your favorite actresses wear?

Don't forget to join the red carpet hangout going on via Google+ on Sunday.

SAG Award "Hangout"

2012-01-25T08:20:00.002-05:00

This Sunday is the SAG Awards...and Snapshot Fashion is going to host another Google+ hangout session where we will talk about the fashions on the red carpet. I did this a couple of weeks ago for the Golden Globes, and even though it was fun I will be the first to admit that there were a bunch of hiccups in figuring out Google+. I had never used it before (oops!)...but I think I have it figured out and hopefully it will run a lot more smoothly this time. This will sort of be a mini-practice session because I will also be doing this for the upcoming Oscars.

If you want to join in on the video chat session please be sure you have Google+, a webcam, and E! channel. Please email me if you are interested. The red carpet begins at 6pm eastern time on Sunday, January 29th on E!.

Polka Dot Love

2012-01-24T16:14:00.001-05:00

I absolutely love polka dots. They are such a huge trend right now. Actually...I feel weird calling them a "trend" because were they ever actually out of style? This print has been the must have look for so many people...for so many years! My absolute favorite way it is worn is on a dress. Polka dots have that vintage feel that make a simple dress look so classic and chic.

Cameron Diaz wore a beautiful black and white Christian Dior dress while in Paris for Couture Fashion Week. Don't you just love this look on her? I mean, if she wore this exact dress in a solid color she would still look pretty...but trust me when I say that we wouldn't be making a big fuss over her look. The polka dots are the star of this look. Beautiful Cameron...beautiful!

Now, not many of us can afford to wear a Christian Dior dress...but there are so many affordable options out there that all of us can deck out our closet in spots!

Lindy Hop Lovely Dress available at ModCloth- $82.99

Midi Dress in Mesh Spot available at ASOS- $55.51

Sweet Dots Forever Dress available at ModCloth- $69.99

Dropped Dots Dress available at Anthropologie- $158.00

Will you be wearing a polka dot dress any time soon???

Anastasia of Beverly Hills Review & Contest

2012-01-20T12:35:00.002-05:00

I absolutely love Anastasia of Beverly Hills. So when they told me they were sending over their Wish You Were Here set I was overjoyed!

I love their packaging! So fun, yet so informative.

Don't you just adore the shadow colors? I'm always looking for golds and purples to wear since my eyes are hazel and those shades make the green in my eyes pop. The blues in this set are a little out of my comfort zone (I'm not going to lie to you)...but I think they would work well for a night out.

Trying my best to look like a cool California girl (haha!). I really love the colors and the quality of the makeup. Even though I am wearing makeup I don't feel like I have too much on. I feel natural...yet pretty.

Check out my review-

Do you love Anastasia Beverly Hills as much as I do? They want to give you the chance to win an amazing prize: One winner will receive a round trip ticket to Los Angeles, a 2 night stay, hair and makeup makeover by ABH, a photoshoot with the Anastasia team, and a six month supply of their products! Amazing right??? Check out their website for complete rules on how to enter. GOOD LUCK!

Mood Boost

2012-01-17T11:59:00.000-05:00

It is so rainy and gloomy here in Pennsylvania today that I really needed to dress in color that will help boost my mood. So I broke out some of the brightest pink I own...because how can you wear this color and not smile, right? It's so bold and fun that it instantly turns my gloomy day around and adds in some cheer.

plaid shirt- H&M

tank- American Eagle Outfitters

skirt- ELLE available at Kohl's

tights- H&M

boots- Lucky Brand

I am in love with this black and white Chanel gown Michelle Williams wore to the Critic's Choice Movie Awards. I swear this girl looks fantastic in just about anything she wears. She always keeps her look so elegant and chic...with a vintage feel to it.

I don't know about you, but I cannot wait to see what she is going to wear on the red carpet tomorrow!

What do you think of this gown...and Michelle's style in general? Do you love her wardrobe as much as I do?

2012-01-13T20:59:00.000-05:00

After a brief meltdown the other day, I was able to get my computer up and running again. Thank goodness! Now it's time to play catch up with blogger friends, emails, and the internet in general.

Oh yeah...and who else is excited about the Golden Globes this Sunday? Are you joining my hangout???

Somehow it picked up a virus on Internet Explorer yesterday. Working off of my parents' computer right now. Hopefully I'll have mine back up and running by the weekend.

Stay tuned...

Red Carpet Hangout

2012-01-10T14:04:00.000-05:00

The Golden Globes are on this Sunday and can I just say I couldn't be more excited! I *love* red carpet events...and I really love it when E! is on the red carpet showing off all the fashion. Thanks to my new interest in Google+ I came up with a great idea: a red carpet hangout session. Usually I result to just tweeting about the styles on the red carpet...but with Google+ hangouts you can video chat with multiple people. I am inviting all fashion bloggers to join me in a fun hangout this Sunday. I have already sent evites to most of my fellow fashion bloggers...but if I missed you and you are a fashion blogger, have Google+, a webcam, and the E! channel shoot me an email and I'll send you the evite. Please take note that there is a limited number of spaces in the hangout available.

A Little Tie-Dye Goes A Long Way...

2012-01-05T11:49:00.000-05:00

Well this is my first style post of 2012 and I thought it would be fun to start this year off on a rather bright and fun note. Yes, I'm talking tie-dye! You all know I have a huge love for legwear, and these tie-dye tights are probably the craziest pair I own. But I love them so much. I paired these bold tights with a very monotone blue outfit, because a little tie-dye really does go a long way. Don't you agree?

skirt- H&M

jacket- H&M

tee- Kohl's

tights- H&M

necklace- gift

boots- Candie's

In other news, isn't my hair ridiculously long? I swear it hasn't been this long in years! I actually just trimmed it the other day and I still think it looks longer than ever...

Mila Poses For Dior

2012-01-05T09:05:00.000-05:00

This just in, Mila Kunis has just signed on to be new face Christian Dior. I love Mila...and I think I love these ads even more. In these ads she is showing the new versions of the Miss Dior handbags.

Snapshot Fashion wants to know what you think of the ads, the choice of Mila as their new model, and the handbags. I gotta admit, I love it all!

I know a lot of you are going to hate me for saying this...but typically I can't stand Rihanna's style. I feel that often she just looks too tough that it's harsh. She's such a pretty girl that I wish she'd play up her femininity more. So when I saw her wearing this lace Tom Ford dress while celebrating the New Year in Miami I was so delighted! She looks so fantastic here, doesn't she? It's a little sexy, yet she looks very lady-like.

What do you think of this dress on Rihanna?

Happy New Year's from Snapshot Fashion

2011-12-30T20:11:00.001-05:00

Today was a lazy day at home...which in turn resulted in making a stop motion fashion video with my husband. It's 100% silly...but, fun regardless! I have no idea how I roped him in to starring in it. Here we show you how we get ready for fun New Year's Eve parties. What to wear, what to wear. The options are endless.

The real kicker is that we have no NYE plans for tomorrow night. A quiet night at home, making some yummy food, drinking some bubbly, and watching the hilarity of Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin while they count down to the new year. What are your plans???
