Hot! or Hmm... : Grammy Awards

Hey Fashion Bombers!
Vuitton here with a red carpet edition of Hot! or Hmm for the Grammy Awards. Some kept it haute while others left us scratching our heads. Let's take a look:
Jennifer Hudson wore a fabulous origami pleated RM by Roland Mouret dress with suede navy Louboutin pumps...
...she looked amazing and her performance and award only added to her fabulousness. Do it Jenny!
Kim K was saucy in this cute Toni Maticevski number with silver Louboutin slingbacks....
...I think she looked hot! And her makeup gets two thumbs up.
Leona Lewis chose this Randi Rham nude dress for the festivities...
Something about it makes me go Hmm...maybe it's because the dress is too close to her skin and hair color?
Queen Latifah presented an award in a navy blue strapless flapper style dress...
...She looked beautiful. She rarely disappoints.
Our friend Fanny was there in this sequined halter...
...I'm actually not mad at this dress. Fantasia stepped it up a notch, and her shoes are pretty dope!
LeToya Luckett stunted in this fuchsia number with a multi-colored python clutch and sky-blue Louboutins...
...Cute look, and that necklace is to DIE for!
Solange made an appearance in this canary yellow cocktail with a vintage Chanel purse and Pierre Hardy open-toed heels...
...She definitely looked cute, but I'm getting more Hmm...than Hot! I expected more from Solange!
Songstress Estelle wore this Bernard Chandran dress with Giuseppe Zanotti open-toed booties to go for a more edgy look on the red carpet...
The chunky necklace is haute, but you can't really see it because of the shoulder detail of the dress. Hmmm...
Jordin Sparks wore this embellished floor grazer by Arizona based designer Debra Davenport...
I like the silhouette of the dress, but something about the pattern makes me go Hmm...
Vanessa and Angela Simmons looked cute and springy in their dresses...
...loving that bright yellow, Vanessa!
And lastly Keyshia Cole vamped it up in this black, semi sheer gown...
Hair and makeup were en pointe, but I'm not feeling this dress. The fit leaves a bit to be desired, and the sheer overlay makes me go Hmm... Maybe if the dress were shorter I'd be sold...
What do you guys think?

PS Red Carpet Regular Rihanna was noticeably absent. Hmmm...

Hot! or Hmm...: Grammy Awards Men's Style

The ladies weren't the only ones bringing it lat night! A few Fashion Bomb guys came out with their swagger on point:
Chris Tucker looked pretty dapper in his suit....
...fellas, take note: with 2 or more buttons on the blazer, leave the last button undone!
Jay-Z brought the flyness....
...loving this, and the tinted glasses are a nice touch.
Snoop Dogg and his wifey hit up the carpet...
...things that make me go Hmm...? This suit. It's too shiny, and the pants don't seem to be tailored. But I gotta give him props for giving us a less pimped out look.
Ginuwine came out of hiding in a velvet suit...
...I love a velvet blazer, but the entire suit makes me go hmm... If he went with a regular pair of black dress pants that fit properly, he would've been hot!
Jamie Foxx rarely does wrong as he displayed last night with his daughter Corinne...
...This blazer is the bomb! And the slightly pointed toe shoe is everything! Fly factor is up!
T.I. never leaves home without his main squeeze, Tiny......He kept it dope with a more casual look, and I'm feeling it.
You know the night wouldn't be complete without Mr. "Martin Louis the King Jr," Kanye West himself......didn't see him on the red carpet, but I'm loving his black Louis Vuitton sneaks with his suit.
Young Jeezy kept the fly train on the tracks in his ensemble...
...I love the fact that he went for a navy blue tie instead of a black. Two thumbs up!
T-Pain and his sunglasses were also there......veering off the fly tracks completely, but this might be the tamest I've seen him on the red carpet. I like the scarf!
And lastly, LL rolled through...
...He looked dapper, but the cut of the jacket made me go Hmm... Too long maybe? Looks a little preacher-esque.
What do you guys think?

Hot! or Hmm...: Peapod Foundation Benefit Concert

Last night the Black Eyes Peas hosted a Foundation Benefit Concert in LA...
...lots of celebs came through, offering a good amount of fodder for Hot or Hmm. Take a look:
Our fave style subject Rihanna went for rocker chic in a Betsey Johnson Skull Zipper Sweater dress and Louboutin booties...
The skulls add a bit of edge and the boots are sassy. Hot!

Saucy Solange sparkled in gold accessories, a yellow houndstooth skirt and matching houndstooth shoes...
...she stayed true to her funky style, and there's nothing wrong with that! Hot!

Simone Battle also made an appearance on the pea green carpet...
...Don't know who she is, but I know that a shirt without pants gets a Hmm...(but her glasses and boots are hot!)

One of our favorites, Fantasia went for a Beyonce-esque black cat suit with a matching shrug...
...Hmmm...not everyone can pull off a skin tight look...

Will.i.am and Apl.de.ap represented for the men...
...I love how they modernize menswear with piping, leather, and retro specs. Hot!

And lastly, a few blasts from the past made cameos, including Boyz II Men...
...and Warren G...
I'm glad to see those guys are still kickin'. They get a hot for showing up! Ha!

Hot! or Hmm...:Keyshia Cole at Chateau Marmont

Last night budding style maven Keyshia Cole hosted a Vanity Fair party at Hollywood's Chateau Marmont...
As the hostess with the mostest, she chose to don a strapless metallic number from Lebanese designer Basil Soda's Spring/Summer 2009 collection...

I'm a sucker for a strapless, and this dress strikes a balance between classic and edgy. In short, she looks hot!
What do you think?
Pssst, here's a pic of the dress straight from the runway:

Hot! or Hmm...: Beyonce's Herve Leger Gown

I've admitted to suffering from Herve Leger overload before--it seems every celeb opts for the short tight cocktail for club events. But leave it to Beyonce to wear an alternative:
She rocked a grey banded Herve Leger gown for jeweler Lorraine Schwartz’s dinner party in NYC a few days ago.
Hot or Hmm?
PS Dawn had the following to say about Herve, "I have like five Herve Leger dresses, and people tell me all the time, 'Chill out with the Herve!' But I say wear what the heck you want...it fits curves great. It sucks in all the excess, so I say as long as you're killin it...rock it!"

Hot! or Hmm..:John Legend

Hey Fashion Bombers!
Vuitton here with a men's edition of Hot or Hmm featuring John Legend!
The crooner was spotted with his girlfriend, Christine, at a pre-inaugural party hosted by Tropicana in this interesting jacket.

I'm all about fashion forward looks, but something about his jacket makes me go hmmm... What do you guys think?

Hot! Or Hmm..:Eva Marcille

Eva Marcille looked party ready at the Launch Party of the video game "Afro Samurai" in Hollywood...

..I love the idea of jumpers: they're saucy, flattering, and hot! But something about satin always reminds me of pajamas...hmmm.
Do you love?
PS Pretty sure she's rocking Jenny Dayco earrings.

Hot! or Hmm...:Rihanna at the Feeding America Ball

One shoulder styles are certainly a hot spring trend, and no one shows it off more than Fashionista of the Year Rihanna, who wore this yellow Jasmin di Millo bubble dress to the RIAA and Feeding America Inauguration Charity Ball in Washington, D.C...
I adore yellow, and this color complements Rih Rih's skin tone, but something about the bust of this dress makes me go Hmm....
What do you think?

The 2nd Annual BET Honors took place this past weekend in D.C., and it seems lots of celebs were in the capital to catch the inauguration and get their party on:
Gabrielle Union shined in an asymmetric black gown with silver details...
Gabby always knows how to keep it classy and elegant. Her look is hot!
Singer Monica also went for black, accenting a strapless number with an assortment of necklaces, bracelets, and dominatrix type leather gloves...
I actually don't mind this look, though something about it makes me go Hmm...
Star Jones showed off her still svelte physiquie in a plunging halter sequined number...
...this look is quite bare for a such a mature woman. At first glance I'm thinking hot, but this is a wee bit scandalous...hmm...
Mary J. Blige looked radiant in a red short sleeved gown with simple metallic accessories....
....show 'em how it's done Mary! Hot!
Queen Latifah went for sweet and simple in an off the shoulder black embroidered dress...
...She looks regal, almost presidential. Hot!
And lastly Whitney Houston made an appearance inside in a cream and white circle design strapless...
...wow. The Whitney of Being Bobby Brown was funny, but this Whitney is fierce. Hot, hot, hot!

Cycle 6 winner Dani Evans sports a rock-chic look with black leather accents and a jersey-like mini-dress. It's a Hot look on its own but next to Tyra and Jaslene's more formal outfits seems a little underdressed, Hmm...And ya know Miss Jay was in the building, Minnie Mouse ears and all!
Your thoughts?

This is how you do a non-floor-length dress to an awards show. Hot!
