Little Taylor Swift managed to upset them all last night. Asking the question. Was Kanye really all that c-a-razy with his unannounced outburst at the MTV VMA”s?
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t actually turn the channel when “You Belong To Me” comes on from Taylor Swift , but Album of the year? Oh well, Gaga will get ’em next year. Right Darren?
This little underage country pop crooner has got something besides 4 new grammys and a duet with Stevie Nicks. Taylor happens to have a waifish model-like swagger with skin so pure. Dressing Taylor is almost idiot-proof. This little girl looks good in everything. At the Grammy’s Taylor’s stylist killed it to the point that Taylor doesn’t need another nod to go to her head. Country child-star turned celebrity-rehab Mindy McCreedy is proof of too much too soon not always too good.
Ready to dissect.
Nothing looks better on cool eyes but a cool sparkly shiny navy blue gown. Kaurfman Franco who designed this dress gets my vote on innovation. I haven’t ever seen the 50’s navy glitter mixed with this type of shoulder-line but done in an oh-so-“Esther Williams” swimsuit back way .
Super-modern, super-edgy, it showed off Taylor’s shoulder blades, an area of the body that never gets enough attention. The fit on this dress is flawless around the bust paired with deep armholes and the execution on how the straps fasten on Taylor’s back is a designer using his muse as his architect. Honestly ,this dress almost deserved a bigger star wearing it to really do it justice. Drew Barrymore , where was your stylist on this one? It’s that A-M-A-Z-I-N-G.
Taylor’s stylist mixed beautiful oversized bangles–and each one was different –on Taylor’s tiny right arm by Ofira and Lorraine Schwartz. Earrings which were not over-bearing but added texture to Taylor’s locks slightly upswept naturally and effortlessly.

Blackened platinum and diamond earrings, blackened platinum and diamond bangle, blackened platinum bracelet with pearls and white opal, and a platinum bracelet with diamonds and sapphires by Ofira.
I wish I could take something apart this but this Grammy night as Taylor sings belonged all to her. Good on you TS.
Style Tip
Fit is by far the most important accessory when you are getting dressed. Whether you’re going to work or going out for an important event, make sure your clothing fits well. No bagging, sagging, or bulging where you don’t want it. Work with a seamstress/tailor on every item that you own. Don’t be worried about how little or how much you spent. Spending a few extra bucks to fit your body like the stars do is worth the investment. You will be amazed at what you learn about your own body when you are your own fit model.
