However, at the recent 2012 Palm Springs International Film Festival Awards Gala held at the Palm Springs Convention Center in California on Saturday (January 7), Stacy Keibler decided to let her beau shine.

Here are some photos:

It’s a good thing she didn’t wore a dress that’s so flashy since she was there just to support her boyfriend, who was honored with the Chairman’s Award for his work in The Descendants and The Ides of March.

Then again, with the look so beautiful, somehow, she still managed to steal the spotlight from George, yes? I love her make-up and hair-do so much because it made her glow and it all the more revealed her beauty. She was actually wearing an Alexander McQueen dress and she kept everything simple with just a pair of earrings from Dana Rebecca Designs for accent.

You probably noticed how much taller Keibler looked than Clooney at the event. Well it’s because of her high heels, which are from Giuseppe Zanotti. Check this out:

Giuseppe Zanotti Crystal Embellished Sandals

With 3.9-inch of heel, it’s no wonder Keibler stood taller than Clooney. It’s not really the first time we’ve seen these sandals in the red carpet since a lot of celebrities were already spotted wearing these before.

This sandal is embellished with crystals throughout the straps and I like the fact that this doesn’t come too flashy, which surely made this all the more elegant looking. This black version is available at Yoox for $595. Far Fetch has a red version of this sandal, which is discounted by 50% from $1,068.66 to just $535; while Zappos has this in multicolor for $1,295 $581.99.

If I’m not mistaken, the photo shoot is in line with the success of being the spokesperson for Weight Watchers. In career news, Jennifer Hudson will be part of the VH1 “Divas Celebrate Soul” concert together with Mary J. Blige, Kelly Clarkson, Florence and The Machine, and Jill Scott. This will air on December 19 at 9pm, and the concert will also benefit the VH1 Save the Music Foundation.

Moreover, she will also be seen as Sister Rosemary in the upcoming comedy film The Three Stooges, which is scheduled to be released on April 13, 2012.

Let’s now take a look at some photos of Hudson during the shoot:

Jennifer Hudson looked stunning in her sexy strapless yellow dress, which is believed to be created by Maria Lucia Hohan. It definitely looked good on her, although it would’ve been better if we’ve seen Hudson’s entire look in that gown. But anyway, it’s very obvious that it somehow managed to reveal her curves.

What completed her look are her Giuseppe Zanotti crystal embellished wedges. It’s not that visible on the photos, but on the first photo, you’ll somehow be able to take a peek at those wedges. But anyway, those aren’t really new; and in fact, we’ve already seen Jennifer Hudson in the same sandals when she performed at the AOL Music “Sessions.”

Take a look at the stunning Giuseppe Zanotti sandals:

Giuseppe Zanotti I10061

These are indeed the wedges Hudson wore with her canary gown. I know this is very stunning; I hope she wore a mini dress instead so as to give justice to the wedges’ beauty. Nevertheless, her gown looks great.

So anyway, these Giuseppe Zanotti wedges are made of leather and it shows butterfly-like strap design at the front. The straps, including the one across the toe, are entirely embellished with crystals, which is why this is dazzling. This has a zipper at the back for easy wear; and the high wedge heel and platform, which measure about 5 1/2-inch and 2-inch, respectively, complete this sandal.

These Giuseppe Zanotti crystal-embellished wedges are now discounted by 40% at Zappos from $1,450 to just $869.99.

Edgar Hoover, the film’s director ...Read more]]> Naomi Watts was spotted at the premiere of the biographical drama film J. Edgar during the AFI Fest 2011 opening night gala presented by Audi held at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, California on November 3.

Along with Naomi Watts were of course, Leonardo DiCaprio, who played the role of J. Edgar Hoover, the film’s director Clint Eastwood, Armie Hammer, and Ed Westwick.

Check out how hot the 43-year-old actress looked:

Although Leonardo DiCaprio is the lead star of the movie, Naomi Watts caught the attention of many. She displayed her assets and sparkled in a stunning Stella McCartney gown, which is entirely embellished with silver sequins. The floor-sweeping gown also featured a plunging neckline and a sexy thigh-high slit. She then accessorized with a long necklace called the Trinity 3-Gold necklace by Cartier, with bracelets and with tiny pair of stud earrings. She also got her strappy heels on, which are most likely by Giuseppe Zanotti.

Naomi Watts looked incredibly and undoubtedly stunning! Her makeup including her bright red lipstick plus her side swept wavy curls made her look like a classic Hollywood star.

Okay, back to her sandals… If I’m not mistaken, those are the same sandals that some of the models at the 2011 VS Fashion show wore. We’ve even featured Miranda Kerr and two other models wearing different versions of that sandal.

What Naomi Watts wore is another version of it although I’m not sure where it’s available. Nevertheless, here are three other versions of the sandals for option:

Giuseppe Zanotti E10256, $1,295 $712.99 at Zappos

Giuseppe Zanotti I10086, $1,295 $1,035.99 at Zappos

Giuseppe Zanotti Crystal Embellished Shoe, €795 €398 at Far Fetch

These sandals are indeed a must-have and it’s definitely a red carpet (and runway) favorite among celebrities. It’s very strappy and it features sparkling crystal embellishments all over! The heel is about 4 1/2-inch, enough to add a lift (literally).

This Giuseppe Zanotti Crystal Embellished Sandal, which is part of the designer’s spring 2011 collection, was spotted a lot of times at the 2011 Victoria’s Secret Fashion show in New York City on November 9.

This Giuseppe Zanotti Crystal Embellished Sandal, which is part of the designer’s spring 2011 collection, was spotted a lot of times at the 2011 Victoria’s Secret Fashion show in New York City on November 9.

The fashion show featured hottest supermodels and Victoria’s Secret Angels (of course!) like Miranda Kerr (who is, without a doubt, one of the most celebrated Angels), Alessandra Ambrosio, Adriana Lima, Erin Heatherton, Doutzen Kroes, Chanel Iman, and more.

The $12 million dollar show is believed to have shown six themes (namely Ballet, Super Angels, Passion Play, Angels Aquatic, I Put a Spell on You, and Club pink) and 38 models on the runway presenting a total of 69 looks that showcased the brand’s lingerie line.

Let’s take a look at some of the models at the runway:

Miranda Kerr at the 2011 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show

Liu Wen at the 2011 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show

Aren’t these girls shining on the runway? Well, aside from their lingerie, which are incredibly stunning, they’re all wearing the Giuseppe Zanotti crystal embellished sandals. Well yes, those sandals were made in different versions.

By the way, did you know that Miranda Kerr actually wore a $2.5 million 142-carat Fantasy Treasure bra? In addition to her modern peacock-like wings, that bra, which made her look more stunning, made the audience rise from their seats to give Kerr a standing ovation.

Just like in the fashion show, the Giuseppe Zanotti sandals can also be seen in various versions from different boutiques and online stores including Zappos and Barneys. Check this out:

Giuseppe Zanotti Crystal Embellished Cut Out Sandals, $1,295 $970.99 at Zappos

Giuseppe Zanotti Jeweled Cut Out Sandal, $1,250 at Barneys

This is indeed a show-stopper and this definitely added luxe to every model who wore this at the event. It has a strappy design that looks like a work of art to me. The heel is about 4 1/2-inch high… the VS models are indeed experts in walking on such high heel on the runway, yes?

This isn’t the only Giuseppe Zanotti sandal spotted at the show; there are actually more and there’s also another one that’s embellished with crystals… but, we’ll save that for another post!

Actually, the movie first premiered in January during the 2011 Sundance Film Festival; and, it is set for a limited release in the United States on October 21. The 22-year-old actress is also set to have two new films in 2012— the thriller film Red Lights, which will be topbilled by Robert De Niro, Sigourney Weaver and Cillian Murphy, and the Liberal Arts.

Elizabeth Olsen at the 49th Annual New York Film Festival Premiere of Martha Marcy May Marlene

She may be dressed in black, which seems to be a favorite among the Olsen sisters (yes, particularly the twins), but I’m glad she did not wear loose dress that covers the entire body— you know, like what her sisters wear most of the time.

Elizabeth Olsen was actually dressed in Alexander McQueen from head to foot. Her halter-neck dress, which features ruffle detail on the collar and skirt with mesh panel, is from Alexander McQueen’s Fall 2011 RTW collection. Her black skull clasp clutch is also a famous Alexander McQueen design. Completing her Alexander McQueen look are the Embellished Curved Wedge Sandals, which are from the brand’s pre-fall 2011 collection. Take a look at this:

Elizabeth Olsen Wearing Alexander McQueen Embellished Curved Wedge Sandals

Wow! I’m speechless. It’s the kind of sandal that will surely draw attention and it’s indeed perfect for such a red carpet event. I love how Elizabeth gave justice to this entire Alexander McQueen ensemble.

Here are detailed photos of the stunning sandal:

This charming sandal is made of suede and it features a strap across the vamp and another on the arch extending through the back quarter. These straps are embellished with two-tone faceted beads and crystals, which would surely set a stunning and incomparable look. A peep-toe rests on the contoured platform that measures about 1 1/4-inch, so make sure you got your toe nails polished. This has a zipper closure at the back for easy on and off wear. And, completing this is the sculptural curved wedge heel that measures 4 3/4 inches.

I know it’s really elegant and very unique, and coming from Alexander McQueen all the more makes this majestic. It has a whopping price tag of $1,645, which is not surprising, and it’s available at Alexander McQueen’s website, Zappos and Neiman Marcus.

Billed as “AARP Presents: Tony Bennett Live in Concert— Benefit for Drive to End Hunger,” this landmark event also celebrated Bennett’s 85th birthday and it also featured several tracks from his newly released Duets II album.

AARP or the American Association of Retired Persons “is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization with a membership that helps people age 50 and over have independence, choice and control in ways that are beneficial and affordable to them and society as a whole, ways that help people 50 and over improve their lives.”

Take a look at Carrie Underwood, who was, by the way, voted as the Most Stylish Country Star by Taste of Country‘s Facebook fans.

Carrie Underwood at AARPS Drive to End Hunger Benefit Concert, September 24

Uhm… Okay! She swept the poll in a landslide votes with over 4,000 votes— second to her was Miranda Lambert and on the third spot was Taylor Swift. But with her ensemble at the concert, do you think she deserved that spot?

Well, she is indeed fashionable and I actually love her style in her previous concerts; but, I just don’t think this overly beaded long sleeved mini dress by Zuhair Murad is a fab. It’s sparkly alright, but too much of it is just too over the top. I have nothing against the designer as I actually love his other modern designs; and also, I love the modern effect at the shoulders and as well as the open back of Carrie’s dress, which added sexiness to her entire look. Let’s just hope that this fashion faux pas would be her last.

She actually completed her look with pumps that are studded at the back and down the heel. The pumps look great but the overall look is quite gaudy. If I’m not mistaken those pumps are the Sam Edelman Roza Pumps; and, if I’m right, I guess she’s the first celeb we’ve seen in those pumps. Check this out:

Sam Edelman Roza Pump in Nude Leather

Like Carrie Underwood’s dress, these pumps also boast plenty of shine with pointed studs and sparkling crystals encrusted at the heel cup down the 4.25 inches heel. Do you like these pumps? Take a look at its detailed photos:

These Sam Edelman Roza Pumps are available in multiple colors and can be purchased at various boutiques including Endless, Zappos, Amazon, Bloomingdales, Saks Fifth Avenue, Dillard’s and Nordstrom. All these sell the pumps from $224.95 to $225. On the other hand, these are already on sale at Lord and Taylor to just $199.99.

Ivanka Trump Sumi Sandals in Medium Blue Satin

Being made of satin material already suggests that this sandal is perfect for evening use. There’s just something about satin material that makes a sandal look effortlessly elegant and luxurious.

It has a sexy silhouette with strap across the toe and a sexy slingback strap with adjustable buckle closure. However, the straps are not really what make this sandal interesting and elegant. Take a look at this:

See the sparkling embellishment on the strap? That certainly added a luxurious bling to this sandal. The crystals are in semi circle form and the way the rectangular-like crystals are put together is very eye catching; it actually looks similar to the rays of the sun.

This sandal then has leather lining and lightly padded footbed. Completing this luxury is the covered heel that measures about 3 1/4-inch.

The fourth season of Jersey Shore, which was filmed in Italy, has just started on August 4. Back in June, MTV also announced that the season 5 of the said reality television series will return to Seaside Heights.

Jenni Farley at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards, August 28

Farley, together with her other Jersey Shore co-stars including Deena Nicole, Sammi, and Snooki, presented an award at the VMA. Right before the event, she excitedly tweeted, “Me and @Sn00ki @DeenaNicoleMTV @MTVsammi will be presenting tonight at the VMA’s!!! Gotta watch n see what were gonna do.”

I hope you’re not looking elsewhere but on her sandals. Well, she’s hot alright, we all know that; and, her shiny, revealing dress made her look even hotter. Then again, let’s put that aside and let’s just focus on her sandals instead.

Upon seeing those sandals, I immediately thought it’s from Giuseppe Zanotti because I know I’ve already seen that before. But then, after reading back from our previous posts, I found out that JWoww’s sandals are different from what I thought was the Giuseppe Zanotti sandals.

What we’re about to present you looks similar to what she wore anyway. Check this out:

Giuseppe Zanotti E10265 Crystal Embellished Thong Sandals

This looks close, right? The only difference are the straps across the toe because this Giuseppe Zanotti sandal only has a single embellished strap at the toe while JWoww’s sandal has a strappy design.

Anyway, if you like these Giuseppe Zanotti sandals, which, by the way, was spotted on Uma Thurman before, you can purchase it at Zappos for $390 (was $650). There’s also a white version of these sandals, which you can buy for $357.50 (was $650).

A boldly printed pant suit, a studded clutch, an unexpected neck piece all pulled together by a rhinestone encrusted Giuseppe Zanotti sandals. Whew!

Embellished Giuseppe Zanotti sandals seem to be the footwear of choice for sought-after, perennially photographed fashion plates like Olivia.

Now here’s a little ‘how-to’ as inspired from Olivia’s look.

Go ahead don a leopard pant suit. Add a touch of unexpected with this chain necklace.  Clutch a teal colored purse. And finally, complete your look with a pair of crystallized peep-toe Giuseppe’s.

It was announced on April 28, 2011 that she’s expecting her first child in the fall season, but there’s no statement on when’s the exact date. News also revealed that Jones will begin production on the fifth season of Mad Men this week. The question is, will her Betty Draper role be pregnant at the start of the season or not?

Anyway, here’s how January Jones look now:

January Jones at Westfield Mall in Culver City, California, August

Look how huge her baby bump is already. It’s around 6 to 7 months if I’m not mistaken. She showed it off and wore pink tank top with maxi gray skirt and a cream cardigan. She also carried a bright green handbag by Reed Krakoff and finished her look with her well-loved thong sandals.

We’ve already featured those sandals from Minnetonka when we’ve spotted her in Los Feliz. Check this out to refresh your mind:

Minnetonka Uptown Thong Sandals in Brown Leather

These wedge thong sandals are simple but chic. I love that it comes in a sexy wedge silhouette but moreover, I love those beads and stones that adorn the straps. They come in multiple colors, which not only makes this very chic but also versatile to be paired with other colors of your ensemble.

Just look at how January Jones dressed up. Her pink top is in contrast to her gray skirt and the bag is obviously the brightest; however, the sandals complemented all the colors she wore, which turned out to make a very stylish look.

Here’s a black version of these Minnetonka Uptown Sandals for option:

These Minnetonka Uptown Thong Sandals can be purchased at Zappos for $55 each. The black color is also available at Endless for $49.95.
