KIDS CHOICE AWARDS: Orange Carpet Fashion

Last nights' 'Kids' Choice Awards' were full of laughter and slime, but the fashion seen on the ever so popular "orange carpet" has us all still talking a day later.

Young and the not-so young alike came out in a full aray of colors last night. Bright hues were a huge hit on the orange carpet; Some even took it to the nails. 

While this is an awards show, many stars opted to go casual for last nights' event. A lot of pant and short suits made their epic debut on the spring awards show. 

Some, however, still went for the traditional or doll baby get up, as their choice in wardrobe. 

Still others, rocked runway looks that were very much appropriate for last nights' occasion. 

Through it all, though, a lot of skin was showing, the sun was shining, and everybody came to have fun.  

Until next time!

TEEN CHOICE AWARDS: Red Carpet Wrap-up

The Teen Choice Awards have wrapped but the fashion is in full swing.

The red or shall I say blue carpet was chock-full of this years hottest summer fashions. Some of next years' runway looks even debuted at the TCA's.

Though these awards are light-hearted and fun for the teens, the seriousness of the fashion trends seen on the red(blue) carpet was out of this world.

There were bright colors, (which was the theme for this summer), basic blacks, (which are always in), and jumpers to die for. 

The Teen Choice Awards proved that you don't have to be a teen to get in on the fun and flirty styles. The adults definitely brought it on the blue carpet. Notable were Kerry Washington as well Tia and Tamera Mowry, amongst many others.

There were also some that felt that skin was in and decided to bare it all, well, not necessarily all, but a large part of their bodys' were showing and they felt no remorse.

For the most part, however, many were fully clothed and had an absolute blast. While there were a few somber moments, as when the 'Glee' cast members honored their fallen cast mate, Cory Monteith, which brought many to tears, myself included. But the rest of the Teen Choice Awards were just as upbeat and exciting as they always are. 

I'm definitely ready to see what's in store for next years TCA's. Until then, take a look a the 2013 red(blue) carpet highlights.
