VMA Fashion...A Total Miss??

You be the judge...
Sunday's VMA Awards were anything but fashionable.
Here are a few of our favorite disasters.


We love her song, but that's about it. Katy Perry's bathing suit belongs on a beach, not on the red carpet. This is her signature style, but maybe it's time to hire a stylist.



Halloween is still 2 months away Christina! Her choice of a spiderweb inspired gown is anything but flattering. We want the old Hollywood Christina back!



Rat tail, fishnets, thigh high boots? Sounds like a dominatrix to us. Rihanna's performance of "Disturbia" was great, but the outfit was just disturbing.

Finally, we found 3 people that looked great!

Our favorite Gossip Boy, Chace Crawford, and Hills star Lauren Conrad looked like the dream couple presenting at the VMA's. Just one more reason to be jealous of Lauren.



Wow! Britney looked phenomenal starting out the show. This was our favorite of her 2 dresses of the night. She was classy and sexy, let's hope we keep seeing her looking this good.

All the very best!

Shoes we love!



We love shoes. Shoes (and accessories) can make or break any outfit.
You can never have too many pairs of shoes. Just ask Carrie from Sex and the City.
