2020 GRAMMYS // BEST DRESSED

-
In today's post, I'm going to be sharing my favorite red carpet looks from the 2020 Grammy's and some of my favorite moments from the show! Enjoy!

Ariana Grande




Billie Eilish



Finneas


Lil Nas X


Lana Del Rey


Tyler, The Creator


Dua Lipa


Maggie Rogers


Lizzo


Shawn Mendes


Camila Cabello


Chrissy Teigen


Billy Porter



Cardi B



The most notable moments of the night was Billie Eilish and Finneas making history by winning ten awards total, including the four biggest of the show; Best New Artist, Record of the Year, Album of the Year, and Song of the Year. She is one of only two artists ever to win these awards at once and the youngest to do so, as well. Billie and Finneas are making music that is so revolutionary and different than what anyone else is doing right now. Billie is only 18 years old and has already achieved so much in just the past year, which makes me so excited to see what she does next. She has achieved so much in the past year alone and has never been anyone other than herself, which makes all of this so much more inspiring to see. When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? is an incredible album and one of my personal favorites ever and is so deserving of all of the recognition it's been getting. 

I also loved their performance of "When The Party's Over", which is one of my favorite songs! I would've loved if they also played "Bad Guy", but it was a beautiful performance nonetheless! 

Ariana Grande also performed a medley of songs including; "Imagine", "My Favorite Things" from The Sound of Music, "7 Rings" and "Thank u, Next". I especially loved how she sang "Imagine", which is one of my personal favorite songs from her last album and one that she only ever performed live once before. Even though she didn't win any of the awards she was nominated for, there's no denying the impact she's had on the music industry for the past two years. She was able to release two incredible albums six months apart after all of the hardships she's experienced during that time. Regardless of awards, the thank u, next era of her career will forever be so iconic and inspiring. 

Her red carpet look was also my absolute favorite of the night - she wore a light grey Giambattista Valli tulle gown that was so beautiful and glamorous. I also heard that throughout the night she wore over $10 million worth of diamonds and emeralds too, which is so insane! Other than the gorgeous Vera Wang gown inspired by the Sistine Chapel she wore at the MET Gala in 2018, I think this is one of her best fashion moments yet. 

My favorite performance of the night was Lil Nas X's "Old Town Road" featuring Billy Ray Cyrus, BTS, Mason Ramsey, and Diplo. It was such a diverse group of people to be performing together but it worked so well. I was smiling from ear-to-ear during the whole performance! It was one of the most memorable moments from recent Grammy's history, in my opinion. He also performed a remix of his song "Rodeo" with Nas, who was obviously the inspiration behind his rap name, which is such a cool and full circle moment. 

I'm not very familiar with his music, but I really loved Tyler, the Creator's performance of "EARFQUAKE" and "NEW MAGIC WAND" featuring Boyz II Men. The performance was so different than what anyone else did on the show this year. He had about a dozen doppelgangers throughout the crowd and up on stage which him - the backdrop of the stage kind of looked like a forced-perspective optical illusion of a city block surrounded by fire. Aesthetically it was really incredible and memorable. Like I said I'm not very familiar with his music, but based on this performance I definitely want to check out more! 

Demi Lovato's comeback performance was one of the most beautiful and emotional moments of the night. She debut her new song "Anyone" on the show, which she wrote four days before she overdosed last year. Demi is an incredible vocalist and someone I've been a fan of for over a decade, so I'm very happy she's still here and able to share her talents with the world.

ARIANA GRANDE GOD IS A WOMAN FRAGRANCE REVIEW

-

When all is said and done, you'll believe God is a Woman!  I absolutely love all of the  fragrances   Ariana Grande  has released over the years, so when I found out that she was coming out with another I was so excited! Her song " God is a Woman " is also so iconic and one of my all-time favorites, so that made me look forward to it even more. I have been using it consistently for several months so I will able to give the most in-depth review I possibly can of this product. In the United States , God is a Woman  is sold exclusively at Ulta in three sizes; 1 oz for $45, 1.7 oz for $55, and 3.4 oz for $65. A travel size bottle is also available for $24. This pricing is consistent throughout the rest of Ariana's fragrances, so if you were looking to purchase another scent this is the range to expect. It is also available internationally at select retailers. God is a Woman  is cruelty free, 100% vegan and made with clean ingredients that are 91% naturally der...

SAFIYA NYGAARD x COLOURPOP COLLECTION REVIEW 🦇♥

-
Image
For my first post of  the new year, I wanted to share my thoughts on one of my favorite makeup releases, the Safiya Nygaard x Colourpop collection ! Safiya is one of my favorite YouTubers and Colourpop is my favorite makeup brand, so this is a really exciting collaboration!  Safiya consistently makes a variety of really high quality and interesting videos that mainly focus on beauty and fashion. I admire how much time and research she puts into what she does, all of the work that is put into these videos really shows in the finished product. If you haven't watched her channel before, I really can't recommend it enough!  In August 2017, she started a series called " bad makeup science ", which is the basis of this new Colourpop lipstick collection. There are 6 lipstick shades that correlate with a shade she created in one of her videos. You can check out the playlist of videos that inspired her collection here . I recently re-watched the whole series again...

My Thoughts on the Gigi Hadid x Maybelline Collection

-
Image
credit :  twitter.com/gigihadid Gigi Hadid has been the face of Maybelline for about 2 years and has been apart of several campaigns for the brand. I was really excited when I initially heard that Gigi and Maybelline collaborated on a full collection. I assumed that I would be able to recreate Gigi's makeup looks for less, but that just isn't the case. Today, I'm going to be giving my opinions on this collection to help you further determine if you should spend your money on it. The biggest gripe I have with this collection is that it is far too overpriced for Maybelline products. I have been noticing that some drugstore brands have been increasing the price of their new products, but I don't understand why since many times the brands aren't doing anything different to justify the large increase in the price. Maybelline does make some of my favorite products, especially when it comes to concealer and mascara, but they have also made really poor quality ...

HIT ME HARD AND SOFT (isolated vocals) by Billie Eilish // 2024 Record Store Day Exclusive Vinyl

-
Image
Happy Record Store Day! One of my most anticipated releases for the Black Friday drop this year was a special version of Billie Eilish 's incredible album HIT ME HARD AND SOFT , which features only her isolated vocals. You can only slightly hear parts of the instrumentals in the background because she recorded the songs without headphones, but this variant of the album puts a major emphasis on only her gorgeous vocals. It's a really cool concept, it almost sounds like you're in the studio with her hearing it recorded live.  There is so much depth to her vocal comps with all of the hidden vocals and ad libs that are hidden underneath the production. There are so many small details that otherwise get buried in each song that now get the chance to fully shine. Billie and Finneas ' creative process is so fascinating, and this record give a glimpse into the way all of these songs came together. An album like HIT ME HARD AND SOFT  is meticulously produced and every layer is s...

BILLIE EILISH HAPPIER THAN EVER // ALBUM REVIEW

-
Image
Billie Eilish's sophomore release is finally here and I'm happier than ever about it! In some ways, the album is quite a departure from her debut, but in the best way possible. When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?  set the stage for what this decade in music is going to be because it was truly unlike any other modern release in recent memory, one whose success and impact will likely never be fully replicated again. She has never tried to be anyone other than herself, which makes her journey of monumental success at such a young age so much more inspiring.  With that being said, the idea of a follow-up release must have come with a lot of pressure to make something just as good, if not better, than the last one. Happier Than Ever is a chronicle of the events that followed her meteoric rise to fame since 2019, from her perspective. There has always been so much talk in the media about the way she dresses, her body, her relationships, whether or not she "deserves" a...
