Hot on the heels of the Golden Globe and The Grammys was The Oscar. The 90th Annual Academy Awards red carpet was just as epic as the ceremony itself. The celebrities were strutting down the red carpet in gold laced braids, new lip colors, beautiful tresses and headdresses. New trends were spotted and some of them have updated their looks with blond weave too.

Greta Gerwig

There were many wearing the finest Oscar fashion and show-stopping looks. From Taraji’s thigh-split gown to Eiza Gonzalez’s yellow dress, everyone was dressed to impressed. A few actresses paid homage to important people and events in their lives. Tiffany Haddish wore an intricate gown to pay tribute to her grandfather and her Eritrean roots.

The 2018 award season is a season for beauty so to speak. Stars are taking more risks and having more fun with their hair and makeup. There were lots of subdued makeup, champagne-tinged lids, soft pink lips and etc. Salma Hayek and Gal Gadot have vampy lip colors, Lupita Nyong and Jennifer Lawrence were some of the few with fierce wings. There were many with amazing and creative hairstyles that one may think that perhaps these stars have gotten some cheap blond wigs.

Have you all checked out Meghan Trainor’s latest single – No Excuses? Love the catchy beat. I also love the choregraphy of this video.

Meghan wore a few different outfits in this music video and one of them reminds me of I Deam of Genie.

Can you see the similarities?

Watch Heart and Greed 3 Online

barbara Leave a comment

Heart and Greed (溏心風暴 3) is another drama produced by TVB and Tencent Penguin Pictures. This is the third instalment after Moonlight Resonance and Heart of Greed 2. Heart and Greed 3 story revolves around 2 families, Ka Cheong Wong Limited, a well-established tea restaurant and the Wong clan, a British-style noble family. There are lots of round infighting and politicking within a family-owned business.

Frankly, I prefer the story line of the first 2 instalment of this series. Nevertheless, I have watched up till Episode 35 online. Watch Heart and Greed 3 online here.

Line Walker 2 Watch Online

One of my favorite TVB Drama, Line Walker is back with Line Walker 2 or Line Walker The Prelude. I have been anxiously catching every episode daily. Pretty exciting to find out who is who. I have a fondness towards the character of Chum Foon Hei in the first Line Walker. That was what got me watching this prelude. I am glad that my favorite actor, Benjamin Yuen is in this drama. His presence makes it more interesting to watch. Dislike Moses role in this drama though. I wish I could give him a haircut.

So have you been watching Line Walker The Prelude online?

MTV Movie & TV Awards 2017

Were you sitting in front of the tv with your nachos ready and watched the MTV Movie & TV Awards last night? It was hosted by comedian and actor Adam Devine (not Adam Levine) who started the show with an over the top musical number from Beauty and The Beast. I love the electrifying “Hey Ma” performance by Pitbull and J Balvin which also featured Camila Cabello. I wonder if the Schecter guitars were used.

Here are my favorite red carpet best-dressed list.

Emma Watson in black and silver dress

Jasmine Tookes in blue lace and pants

Rebecca Black in a red wide leg pants and puff sleeves top.

Jillian Rose Reed in a palm green outfit which is so similar to Jennifer Lopez’s jaw-dropping dress.

Grammy Award 2017 Fashion

So it was the 59th Annual Grammy Award ceremony two nights ago. I have always loved watching the Grammys because I get to watch my favourite artists performing. I also like to look at the Grammys Red Carpet. Some of the fashions are really gaudy and weird and it gets weirder every year. However, there are also some notable styles that are winning the red carpet. I have here some of my favourites. Oh not forgetting, one of the performances that I really enjoyed watching with the speakers blasting out loud is the tribute to Bee Gees by Demi Lovato, Tori Kelly, Little Big Town and Andra Day.

Chrissy Teigen in Roberto Cavalli gown.

Jennifer Lopez in Ralph & Russo Couture Christian Louboutin shoes

Demi Lovato in Julien Macdonald

Carrie Underwood in a beautiful red gown.
