Camila Alves at the 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week

Feb 15 2012

Brazilian model and television performer Camila Alves was busy attending different fashion shows during the New York Fashion Week last week. On February 8, she was seen at QVC’s NY runway show held at Center 548; and on February 11, she was at Monique Lhuillier fall 2012 fashion show held at The Theatre at Lincoln Center in New York City.

These are actually just two of the many runway shows she attended; and on every fashion show, she was sporting chic and fashionable outfits. Let’s now take a look at her style:

Camila Alves was in her fashionable self during the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week; and you know it’s just appropriate! While at QVC’s fashion show, she was wearing a red textured backless dress, which is actually quite simple but definitely chic and sophisticated. On the other hand, while at the Monique Lhuillier show, she was wearing a Monique Lhuillier spring 2012 dress, which is just apt. It also features yellow python belt that reveals Alves’ curves.

For a touch of sparkle, she got her engagement ring flashing! Well actually, although her ring caused quite a stir, another thing that’s sparkling on her is her pair of pumps. I had a hard time looking for those pumps around and thinking about its brand until I remembered I already featured it back in August 2011.

Check it out:

These lovely and very luxurious pumps are from Casadei fall/winter 2011-2012 collection. Zoe Saldana also wore this in Flaunt magazine August 2011 issue.

These are undoubtedly the kind of pumps that’s ideal for red carpet events. It’s made of satin and it’s embellished with pave rhinestones and large jewels in multiple colors, which make these pumps totally luxurious. It’s like the pumps worn by the royalties! An ivory version of these pumps are also available but I like the black version more since for me it’s more sophisticated.

Adele at the 54th Annual Grammy Awards

Feb 14 2012

Following her throat surgery back in November, Adele has finally made her comeback as she took the stage at the 2012 Grammy Awards to belt out Rolling in the Deep, and she ended up with a standing ovation from the audience that included fellow recording artists.

Aside from her scene stealing performance at the Staples Center on Sunday, February 12, she also stole the show as she bagged a total of six awards including Album of the Year for her second studio album 21 and Record of the Year and Song of the Year for her song Rolling in the Deep. Her other awards include Best Pop Vocal Album (21), Best Short Form Music Video (Rolling in the Deep), and Best Pop Solo Performance (Someone Like You).

Aside from the fact that she sparkled at the event with six awards, she also literally sparkled in her custom Giorgio Armani gown. It features three-quarter length sleeves and black sequins throughout that are covered by black mesh overlay. It also has a cinched waist with black grosgrain panel at the center to reveal her curves.

Her ensemble was pretty simple and I guess it’s really her style. We usually see her in red carpet events wearing 3/4 sleeves black dress, right? So this isn’t any more surprising.

I know that as much as you try to take a peek at her shoes you couldn’t see it, so we’re glad to tell you that she was actually wearing the Christian Louboutin Fifi Pumps.

These pumps are actually available in different versions, but the version pictured above is what Adele wore at the event. It’s entirely covered in sparkling crystals from the toe down to the heel that measures about four inches.

Its other versions can be purchased at Barneys, by the way, while the rendition above is available at Christian Louboutin website for $3,395.
