I love watching awards shows for so many reasons. All the sparkles, the beautiful gown, the good looking guys in great styles, the avant-garde looks, whose drunk when they give an acceptance speech and all that good stuff. Let's round up some of my favorites and help you get the looks for less.
Taylor Swift, how I love you all dressed up. This 20 year old country singer took home her first Grammy and won the coveted album of the year for "Fearless." She's always fashionable and age appropriate at the same time. One of my favorite jewelry sites is the Fantasy Jewelry Box which has a great pair of similar Grammy night earrings for only $34.95. eDressMe has a fabulous open backed silver sequined gown by Tony Bowls for a black tie event. I love the red lipstick look that Taylor does so well! Many women know that finding the perfect shade of red lipstick can be a challenge.
