Get Your Glamour On: Wearable Red Carpet Styles

I don't really watch award shows, I actually just watch the pre-shows to see what everyone is wearing as that's the best part!  I love red carpet fashion and even though the dresses are beyond gorgeous, there is no way I would ever get a chance to wear something like that.  When Mazda asked us how we would translate red carpet fashion to wearable everyday styles, I thought about it and instantly thought of the gorgeous colors that you see the celebs wear during award season.  Often times the colors they choose are THE colors of the season or become the colors.  I love getting inspiration from these celebs and creating my own everyday outfits.

The pink dresses as seen on Leah Michelle and Nina Dobrev is such a pretty pink.  Pink is often associated with super girly but I love this bright pop that makes it a bit more sexy and grown up.

I love how Olivia Munn took the color to her skirt and paired it with a lace top and peter pan collar.  It's still dressy but much more wearable.

The color is so gorgeous and I found quite a few dresses that are easily wearable for work or play.

jordan dress  - adore the colorblock and it's on sale
olivia dress - I'm such a fan of long sleeve dresses and can't resist it in this color
DKNY Colorblock Dress - another great colorblock but a bit more work appropriate
Miles of Lace Dress - a fun lace dress to get me excited for spring! 

And here's how I translate the color into a very wearable outfit for me!

Kate Spade Lillian | Pleated Skirt
Love Chain Bracelet | Gem Chain Bracelet
OCC Nail Polish | Pave Drop Earrings | YSL Lip Gloss
Rockstud Clutch | Tribute Pump

Navy was also a big color on the red carpet and I love these ladies' looks.
