The 2014 Grammy Awards Best Dressed: Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, and Chrissy Teigen

Couples got married, Katy Perry stole Lady Gaga's white horse from last year and painted it black, and Lorde was just as quirky as we all expected her to be, the 2014 Grammy Awards took place last night and good thing they lifted that dress code from last year because musicians took risks and some paid off.

My choice for best dressed goes to, in no particular order, Taylor Swift in a Gucci dream, Chrissy Teigen in a Johanna Johnson gown, and Beyoncé's performance ensemble which was comprised of Saint Laurent tights, a custom bra, a Nicholas de Carle bodysuit, Stuart Weitzman shoes and Jennifer Fisher earrings.

The Golden Globes Best Dressed: Tom Ford

You're right! Tom Ford was not in attendance last night, although I wish he was for a few reasons. The 2014 Golden Globes aired last night, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler did funny women everywhere proud and once again were wonderful hosting the show.

Highlight of my night: Andy Samberg winning Best Actor in a Television Series - Comedy or Musical for Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Brooklyn Nine-Nine winning Best Comedy Series. The show is one of my favourites and it is seriously funny, it truly deserves the recognition it received last night!

Now the fun part, who was best dressed? Well for starters, and I know I am not alone on this one, I felt that there was more bad than good on the red carpet, but of course this is all a matter of opinion. Also, I've watched every episode of Project Runway and Project Runway: All Stars so I feel as if I've picked up how to properly critique a la Michael Kors and Nina Garcia.

My best dressed top three include two red carpet newbies: Margot Robbie from Wolf of Wall Street Lupita Nyong'o from Twelve Years a Slave, and the always radiant Olivia Wilde. Margo was a vision in Gucci white, Lupita rocked a cape by Ralph Lauren which has not been done since Gwyneth wore the white Tom Ford number, and Olivia shone bright like an emerald in a Gucci dress.

Inspired by the runway looks of: Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, Roberto Cavalli, and Versace.

Elements: gold and brown eyeshadow, heavy black mascara, black liner on the top and bottom lids, with a touch of blush to illuminate the cheekbones.

Fall Basics: A to Z, the letter C

C is for Camel Overcoat

Layering is a skill you acquire when its necessary for survival - no one likes to freeze in the fall - and the key piece to staying warm is a well structured coat. Seen everywhere from Gucci to Burberry, this season it's all about the camel hue and it's safe to say that a camel overcoat will stay in your wardrobe for many years to come. Pair it with thigh-high boots for night or military-inspired booties for day.

I invested in a camel overcoat last year and wore it all winter with everything.
