Tyra Banks vs. Kim Kardashian – Who Wore Rachel Roy Better?

Profashionelle — Tue, 25 May 2010 15:00:12 +0000

Tyra Banks attended the 36th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards back in August 2009 where she wore a beautiful, sleek coral one shoulder dress ($1.495) from Rachel Roy’s Resort 2010 collection. The TV host & ex-now-back-again supermodel finished her look with pointy suede pumps and a matching nude clutch.

Kim Kardashian sported the same Rachel Roy dress at the 2010 Cosmetic Executive Women Beauty Awards a few days ago. Much like Tyra, Kim accentuated her coral frock with nude accessories such as her Christian Louboutin Alti platform pumps and a multi-colored Louboutin Talita clutch.

As much as I like Kim’s new sophisticated style, I prefer this Grecian-inspired dress on Tyra’s statuesque frame. I think the dress might have worked better on Kim if she’d shortened it to end just below her knees. What do you think?

Stephanie Pratt vs. Lea Michele – Who Wore French Connection Better?

Profashionelle — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 02:00:15 +0000

Back in June 2009 Stephanie Pratt attended the after party of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen in Miami looking cute as a button in a blue and red dotted French Connection mini dress which she paired with matching red peep-toe pumps.

Actress Lea Michele wore the same French Connection frock a few months later at the Glee Mall Tour in Los Angeles. Lea opted for simple black ankle strap pumps, but decided to bring in a pop of color with her fire red lips.

I’m so in love with this dress, it’s perfect for spring! Both women look extremely good in it and I like that you can tie it up on either side to show your right or left cold shoulder. Even though I like Lea’s red lips I much prefer Stephanie’s red peep-toes with the dress, so she wins for me. Do you agree?

Zoe Saldana vs. Sophia Bush – Who Wore Helmut Lang Better?

Profashionelle — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 21:00:46 +0000

Back in October one of my new red carpet favorites, Zoe Saldana, attended the Audi Diesel Dinner looking great in a casual grey printed longsleeve dress from Helmut Lang’s Resort 2010 collection. The beautiful actress revived the leggings trend by wearing her dress with matching grey leggings and charcoal grey pumps.

Sophia Bush walked the red carpet at the screening of The Private Lives Of Pippa Lee on Sunday wearing the same printed Helmut Lang dress. Sophia completed her look with black opaque tights and black ankle boots making her whole ensemble look very autumn-y.

As much as I love Zoe, I HAVE to give this to Sophia. Even though it’s a grey dress, she brought life to it and her whole flawless look just supersedes Zoe’s lackluster ensemble. She looked slightly tired and I’m also not a fan of the grey leggings. What about you? Whom do you prefer in this dress?

Eva Mendes vs. Selita Ebanks – Who Wore J.Mendel Better?

Profashionelle — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 02:00:18 +0000

A few weeks ago Eva Mendes flew around the world to attend the closing ceremony of the Middle East International Film Festival (MEIFF) where she sported an exquisite white one-shoulder asymmetrical gown ($3.690) from J.Mendel’s Pre-Fall 2009 collection. The actress looked absolutely stunning and completed her look with maroon beaded jewelry.

Today Victoria’s Secret angel Selita Ebanks wore the same delicate dress when she attended the A Magical Evening Gala in New York City. The tiny model looked equally gorgeous but wore her hair in an updo and decided to color-coordinate her accessories by wearing expensive diamond jewelry to go with her luxurious dress.

As much as I love Eva, this dress looks much better on Selita who gave it the elegant twist and accessories it needed. The sleek updo and clean neckline helped, too. What do you think? Eva or Selita?

PenÃ©lope Cruz vs. Emily Blunt – Who Wore Dolce & Gabbana Better?

Profashionelle — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 13:00:24 +0000

Back in May at the Cannes Film Festival PenÃ©lope Cruz attended a photo call for Broken Embraces (Spanish title: “Los Abrazos Rotos”) looking breathtaking in a nude Dolce & Gabbana ruched strapless silk dress which she accessorized with matching satin Christian Louboutin peep-toe pumps.

Emily Blunt wore the same dress 2 days ago at the 16th Annual ELLE Women in Hollywood Tribute looking equally gorgeous. The actress decided to spice up her outfit by adding a bit of bling and a matching beige clutch which fit well with her beige Louboutin t-strap pumps. Emily also replaced the original grosgrain belt of the dress with a cute bow-tied one.

Oh my, this fashion faceoff is a tough one because I adore the dress on both women. However, I slightly prefer PenÃ©lope’s look and even though she opted out of accessorizing I am still totally blown away by how soft and feminine the dress looked on her, so it’s PenÃ©lope for me. Whom do you prefer seeing in this dress?

Katie Cassidy vs. Paris Hilton – Who Wore Brian Lichtenberg Better?

Profashionelle — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 15:00:15 +0000

Back in August Katie Cassidy looked absolutely outstanding at the Melrose Place Launch Party wearing a sparkling navy one sleeved dress from Brian Lichtenberg’s Fall 2009 collection. The actress was head-to-toe perfection and completed her stunning red carpet look with a silver Swarovski clutch and Bebe “Desiree” platform heels.

Paris Hilton attended the 2009 Fox Reality Channel Really Awards yesterday wearing the same shimmering mini dress. It’s not often that I say Paris looks nice, but on this occasion she looks great in this knockout dress which she paired with a pair of black platform sandals from her own shoe collection.

Despite Paris looking quite decent for once, I still think she’s no competition for Katie at all. Everything about her look was perfect and not one hair was out of place. 1:0 for Katie! What do you think? Do you agree with me or not?

Blake Lively vs. Tamsin Egerton vs. Khloe Kardashian – Who Wore Alexander Wang Better?

Profashionelle — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 21:00:39 +0000

Blake Lively was spotted first wearing this eggplant Alexander Wang goddess dress with an oversized turquoise bracelet and bronze Louboutin pumps when she was on set of Gossip Girl back in August.

Tamsin Egerton wore the same asymmetrical draped jersey dress when she attended the Hair Magazine Awards 2009 on September 29, 2009 in London. The British actress accessorized her sexy frock with a gunmetal clutch and metallic peep-toe pumps.

Khloe Kardashian is the latest to join Alexander Wang’s goddess dress fanbase. The Kardashian sister wore the eggplant-hued dress at the Famous Cupcakes Store Grand Opening in Beverly Hills yesterday. Khloe finished her look with shiny sleek hair and a pair of lovely Christian Louboutin lace ankle boots.

I think this dress suits rather curvy women, so Tamsin is out of consideration (I also don’t like her hair here). It all comes down to Blake or Khloe and I think I’ll have to go with Khloe as she overall looks more polished than Blake and because I think the turquoise bracelet on Blake looks totally off. What do you think?

Kim Kardashian vs. Alicia Witt – Who Wore Rafael Cennamo Better?

Profashionelle — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 19:00:04 +0000

Back in June Kim Kardashian posed for a photoshoot at the Lâ€™Hermitage Hotel in Monte Carlo looking beautiful in a white strapless Rafael Cennamo gown which had a feathered bodice and ruffles cascading down the skirt. The raven haired beauty opted out of wearing any accessories except for a dash of red on her lips.

Fast forward 3 months later and you have Alicia Witt wearing the same delicate gown at this year’s Emmy Awards. The actress completed her look with Neil Lane jewelry, a black crystal embellished Kotur box clutch and black strappy heels.

What a difficult decision this time! It’s so hard to pick a favorite as both women look absolutely amazing and I simply adore the dress on both. But I think I have to hand it to Kim again because Alicia slightly diffused her dreamy look by adding too much jewelry to her ensemble. What do you think?

Kim Kardashian vs. Ashlee Simpson – Who Wore Nuj Novakhett Better?

Profashionelle — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 21:00:21 +0000

Back in June, Kim Kardashian attended the 20th Annual MuchMusic Video Awards in Toronto wearing a black and white Nuj Novakhett Fall 2009 striped dress which she accessorized with a black belt, black suede Louboutin pumps and a matching Louboutin satin clutch.

Last week at TV Guide’s The CW Fall TV Preview Party Ashlee Simpson decided to wear the same striped mini dress. Ashlee opted out of wearing a belt and instead decided to jazz up her outfit by adding a red clutch and white pointy pumps to complete her look.

I really dislike Kim’s hair in the above picture and the nude make-up doesn’t do her any favors as well. However, she stil wins this for me as I prefer Kim’s accessories and because white pumps are a big personal no no of mine. Do you agree?

Miranda Kerr vs. Ali Larter – Who Wore Balenciaga Better?

Profashionelle — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 10:00:33 +0000

Back in March Miranda Kerr was on Victoria’s Secret duties launching yet another VS fragrance in LA. Miranda looked flawless as usual wearing a seafoam draped sheath dress by Balenciaga which she completed with leg-lengthening nude peep-toe pumps and an oversized white cocktail ring.

Ali Larter opted for the same Balenciaga frock when she attended The Feed Health Backpak Launch Party last week. The actress completed her look with a pair of strappy sandals and a metal box clutch.

I really like both women in this dress (which I’d love to have in my own closet btw), but I slightly prefer Miranda’s look. Not because she’s a model, but because I love her nude pumps and the cute blossom statement ring. Plus, I would have liked to see Ali rocking a different hairstyle as I’m not too fond of this one. What do you think?
