From the sublime to the ridiculous, the 2025 Grammys featured plenty of both.

I’m just going to ignore the ridiculous and focus on my top five favorite looks.

Taylor Swift:

Im not a Swiftie but I’m loving her custom Vivienne Westwood dress with Lorraine Schwartz jewellery and Casadei heels.

Sabrina Carpenter:

Having a Cinderella moment in In custom JW Anderson with Chopard jewellery.

Billie Ellish:

Billie was Stylish in Prada. It just fits her personality.

Charli XCX:

This Jean Paul Gaultier couture piece is breathtaking. I like the unique paring of the boots but would have liked to have seen it with perhaps silver or rhinestone boots instead of black.

Cardi B:

From rhinestones to feathers, my girl was killing it in Cavalli.

What were your favorite looks from this years red carpet?

Pantone has chosen Mocha Mousse as their 2025 Color Of The Year.

This rich, earth tone is showing up everywhere, from runways to closets.

Fair Isle sweaters and lace midi skirts adopted the color this year.

Accessories in various shade of chocolate accent outfits.

I love the typically Fall color paired with fun spring tones.

Adding the same color in various shades makes for a classic choice.

This color can be used as a neutral for any color or pattern and is great, versatile choice!

He did it again!!!

Louis Vuitton men’s creative director Pharrell Williams just presented his second collection at the Paris Menswear Show this week.

Through a fish eyed lens point of view, he played his greatest hits for Fall ’25, with a collection designed in collaboration with his friend NIGO that featured his archives and payed homage to some of his looks from the early 2000s.

Trunks that were wheeled around the runway throughout the show.

Williams was also thinking pink, with a series of soft pastel looks.

This collection has Japanese inspiration sprinkled throughout.

Pink represents the cherry blossoms and takes on a masculine flare.

Williams is normalizing the Speedy for men with this collection.

We see a nod to the 2022 Virgil Ablo collab with NIGO showing workwear inspired pieces and Damier prints.

PHRIENDS:

The Damier Ebene pattern is reimagined with creamy profiles of Williams and NIGO, adding a graphic edge to the classic design. 

Bomber jackets dominate this collection.

This Fashion Bromance has proven to be a hit for a Louis Vuitton.

This is my first real outfit of the day for 2025.

I’ve been working so much there’s been little time for play.

I’d received this gorgeous Magaschoni suede coat for Christmas and couldn’t wait to style it.

So this week I finally got to.

When I received it I immediately thought of my vintage patent leather Gucci Jackie bag in the same color palette.

I added a top in the same shade and my Walmart suede Chelsea boots and voila!!!

The perfect chic outfit for cold weather.

It’s that time again…Fashion from the Golden Globes.

The red carpet at the 82nd Annual Golden Globes did not disappoint.

Here’s some of my favorite looks from this years show.

Angelina Jolie sparkled in McQueen.

Selena Gomez looked like she stepped out of an old Hollywood movie in this cornflower blue Prada number with Tiffany jewelry.

Zoë Kravitz also brought a vintage vibe in this classic black and white piece from Saint Laurent.

Colman Domingo added interest to his Valentino suit with his exaggerated bow tie.

Viola Davis and Demi Moore really blew me away in their Gucci.

Ariana Granda is a living doll in Givenchy and Swarovski.

You Speak Prada?

Adam Brody sure does.

You know I’m a sucker for leopard print. Balmain added a splash to their dress for Elle Fanning.

Gucci does it again with this monochromatic look for Andrew Scott.

My beloved Christian Siriano once again creates controversy with this breathtaking forest green gown for Jonathan Van Ness.

I saved my favorite for last.

My girl Zendaya always gets it right!

This earth tone gown from Louis Vuitton is perfection. Jewels from Bvlgari completed this vision.

What was your favorite look from this years show??

Who can forget Y2K?

Paris Hilton made the Louis Vuitton Murakami bags HOT!

From girls next door Jessica Simpson to

Mean Girls, Murakami was everywhere.

2025 sees Louis Vuitton bringing back one of their most coveted collaborations.

After discovering Murakami’s artwork at an exhibit at the Fondation Cartier in 2002, then-creative director Marc Jacobs approached the Japanese pop artist to reimagine Vuitton’s iconic monogram.

To celebrate the anniversary of their collaboration, the pair returns for their extensive launch.

Releasing the re-edition collection of the collab that happened two decades ago, the Louis Vuitton x Murakami sparks joy and vibrancy, consisting of over 200 crations from the project.

The collection arrives in two drops—January and March 2025.

It will feature over 200 items spanning carryalls, sneakers, perfumes, and even skateboards paying tribute to the original collaboration.

The second chapter set for spring will spotlight his Cherry Blossom pattern in a fresh swirl of pink blooms.

Everything that goes around comes back around.

Prepare your inner Regina George.

As far as the new collab, That’s HOT!

I’ve often uttered those words. Deep down I knew it wasn’t true. I’m just too lazy to put forth the effort.

So I’m sharing the list I’ve given myself to provide stylish options for the cold weather.

1. Hats and Beanies are a must.

10% of our bodies heat escapes through our heads so we must keep them covered.

Keep your head warm with a stylish hat or beanie. These can be statement pieces or coordinate with your outfit’s color scheme.

2. Layers:

Wear a base layer, like a thermal tee or bodysuit, and tights for insulation.

Add under layers like leggings, thermal vests and cashmere socks and over layers such as gloves and, of course a stylish coat.

3. Insulated boots:

Vital for keeping feet warm and dry, these boots should also offer good traction for icy conditions.

4. Scarves:

These are versatile accessories and can be draped in various ways to suit different outfits.

5. Gloves or mittens:

Leather or insulated gloves keep your hands warm while adding a touch of tastefulness.

For more casual looks, mittens in knitted fabrics work well. 

I hope you find some cute and cozy outfits ideas and have a very stylish winter!

This comfy outfit is perfect for holiday shopping.

The Chicos vest keeps me warm while running from car to store…to store to store!

But I don’t get overheated once inside like I would with a heavy coat.

I paired it with this this cozy top from a boutique in Kings Mountain and distressed jeans from Old Navy.

I finished the look with these suede Chelsea boots from Walmart and this classic Ralph Lauren bag.

Holidays are stressful enough. Don’t let choosing your outfit stress out more.
