Billboard Music Awards Red Carpet Report

Last night was the annual Billboard Music Awards- which takes place every year in Las Vegas. Taylor Swift and Maroon 5 were both huge contestants, each nominated in 11 categories. What Lady Lux was concerned with, however, was what everyone was wearing! Award shows and big red carpets like the Billboard Music Awards are always great inspiration for us when styling our designer swimwear as well as picking out which styles are on trend. We saw a few trends we loved- from jewel tones to summer hues, the red (or actually blue) carpet was full of some great styles, as well as some not so great… Here are a few of our favorites.

 

 

Taylor Swift has recently been nailing red carpet after red carpet. She’s blossomed from a conservative teenager into a sexy starlet. Lately she’s been wearing shorter hems, lower necklines, and sexy cutouts- all of which are done tastefully, of course, and not all at once… Last night she rocked a royal blue micro mini dress which showed off the singers best asset- her statuesque legs. We absolutely loved the sapphire blue color of the dress, which gave us inspiration for other similar jewel tones such as the aquamarine Paradise bandeau, the amethyst purple of the Unforgettable bikini, and the pink sapphire color of the Pretty Young Thing bikini.

 

 

Black is a color that’s considered a staple for many women’s wardrobes. It’s a color that can easily go from fab to drab- based on the cut of the style as well as how you accessorize it. Emmy Rossum looked amazing in her black, floor-length gown with the use of sexy cutouts with sheer paneling. Not only did the cutouts flatter and accentuate her shape, but they were done tastefully, without being too risque. Bikinis are the same way. Truly, Madly, Deeply and Pretty Young Thing are both classic black bikinis with a twist. Their gold hardware gives them an extra feeling of glamour- defining them as luxury swimwear.

 

 

Summer is fast approaching- which is one of the reasons we loved Renee Bargh’s bright summer hue on her dress. The fun coral color coordinated perfectly with her glowing tan, which was made complete with her beachy waves. Still The One features not one, but two fun summer colors in a youthful tie-dye pattern. Other great summer-y options include Call On Me, which features tons of bright colors in a fun chevron pattern, as well as Melt Away, whose bright coral and turquoise colors get you in a playful mood for the season!

 

Other great starlets who displayed great style include Selena Gomez, Jennifer Morrison (who also rocked a sexy black dress with sheer paneling), and Jennifer Lopez. We can’t wait for the next red carpet!

Selena Gomez Nails Spring’s Hottest Patterns

Selena Gomez is, no doubt, an up-and-coming Hollywood A-Lister. She began her career with Disney Channel, which sky-rocketed the young starlet to fame, but has continued to stay on the entertainment scene even after her career with Disney has come to a close. She’s recently blossomed into a style icon as well, and here at Lady Lux- we’re loving it. While she’s often pictured in sexy luxury swimwear, we figured we would feature some of our favorite patterns she’s been spotted in. Then, we’ll show you how to get Selena’s look using your own designer swimwear.

 

 

Selena’s first look features one of our favorite patterns for spring- floral. While Selena’s floral pattern features a lot of oranges and greens, Lady Lux wanted to brighten up the look with bright pinks and aqua- which screams springtime to us. The Secret Escape Dress has a similar breezy, casual look that Selena’s dress has. If you’re just looking for a standard swimsuit, however, you can opt for either the Floral Fantasy bandeau or the Secret Escape bikini- both of which feature the same lively pattern as the Secret Escape Dress. Overall, Selena’s look is kept minimal, with light makeup and swept back hair. Accessorize with beachy wedge sandals like Selena’s and throw on a sexy long necklace too. If you’re feeling daring- try a body chain for a similar, even sexier option instead of the long necklace!

 

 

The second look of Selena’s is definitely more of a sexy, nightclub ensemble. The sexy bustier top is completed with a black skirt with a thigh-high slit. For a similar sexy graphic pattern and cut- try the She’s Got A Way bikini. The sexy pattern is completed with gold hardware, which is reminiscent of the gold stitching in Selena’s bustier. The pattern also comes in a monokini- Love Bound. To complete your look, layer on a maxi skirt similar to Selena’s for walking around poolside. Dramatic eye makeup and bedhead waves will finish off the sexy, nightlife look.

Jennifer Lopez Nails it in Black, Pink, and Stripes

Jennifer Lopez has been on the pop culture scene for many years now. From her days as a dancer on “In Living Color”, to her early days as a pop star, to breaking into Hollywood as a leading actress in films such as “Maid in Manhattan” and “The Wedding Planner”, to now headlining world tours and starring as a judge on American Idol- there seems to be nothing slowing her down. Her style is ever-evolving and here at Lady Lux, we are loving witnessing the star’s style transformation. It has evolved from “girl from the Bronx” street style to true Hollywood icon glam. We love taking tips from Jennifer’s sense of style when completing our designer swimwear looks- so here are a few of our favorites.

 

 

Although basic, there’s a reason black is considered a staple in every wardrobe. Black is a classic color that does wonders for almost any body type, skin color, or hair color. The black dress that Jennifer recently wore to the Grammy’s was just that. A simple black color- amped up with sex appeal, much like the Truly, Madly, Deeply bikini by Lady Lux. The overall silhouette of Jennifer’s dress is so simple and so classic, but the sky-high slit adds a sexy edge to the cut. Truly, Madly, Deeply is a classic bikini, but the hardware and luxurious materials make the suit sexy and glam.

 

 

This pink look of Jennifer’s follows the same principles of her black dress above, yet turns it up a notch with the stunning pink color. Overall, the dress is classically cut, much like the Melt Away bikini. The bright pink color is eye-catching and adds both youthful and fun elements to the bikini as well as the dress. We also love how Jennifer kept her entire look simple by brushing her hair back from her face in a sleek ponytail. A great idea for the pool- when lounging in the hot sun in your luxury swimwear!

 

 

The last look of Jennifer’s that we loved was definitely more casual than the previous two looks. This striped dress of hers is, again, a classic look. The angled stripes are very reminiscent of the Ready Or Naut bikini. Stripes can be a difficult pattern to conquer, but by throwing them on at an angle- you’ll actually be doing yourself and your body a favor. The stripes on Ready Or Not actually bring the eye in to the cute little bow at the center. With stripes- follow Jennifer’s lead by keeping the rest of your look simple and toned down. You don’t want to compete with your cute striped bikini!
