The Golden Globes - Did you see your future prom dress?

The Golden Globes red carpet walk is where the stars really shine. More focus is put on celebrities while they walk the red carpet than the award ceremony itself. And while all celebrities dress "to the nines" for this special occasion, not all pulled off a great look. We will look at the best dressed women at the Golden Globes and how you can get the same look for less.Perhaps your next prom dress or evening gown is lurking below.



Hayden Panettiere
"Nashville's" leading lady was pretty in pink wearing a ruched Roberto Cavalli gown. She looked fabulous in this sweetheart mermaid gown in light pink adorned with just the right amount of bling to not overshine her natural beauty. She chose to wear her hair down, which seems to be the trend this year and added a bright pink clutch because accesories are important.


We think you can improve upon Hayden's look with the style 340 by Johnathan Kayne. You will make everyone speechless in a breathtaking hand beaded chiffon gown. The neckline is covered in A/B crystals that scatter down the length of this gown.
The romantic laser cut organza petals & ostrich feathers add a romantic demension to the hemline. Add a silver handbag and some low heel silver sandals to finish off this look.

Tina Fey
She had a big night ahead of her as co-host of the ceremony but Tina Fey took time out beforehand to show off her tea-length L’Wren Scott gown with black Chantilly lace embroidery when she walked the red carpet. The “30 Rock” star rounded out her retro look with long locks, Ferragamo black pumps, and a Roger Vivier clutch. And while we love the new trend of lace over fabric, we think the following would have made a much better ensemble for her red carpet appearance.

We think this Beautiful and elegant black/nude Mermaid Cocktail Dress featuring a Sweetheart neckline would have really made Tina shine on the red carpet. This dress is made BG Haute who have designed several red carpet styles. We also love Cannes by Sizzle lace over satin wrapped platform and fashion-forward roomy round toe to go perfectly with this dress and of course there is a matching clutch just to add a little accent to this fashion statement.

Jennifer Lopez

Jennifer Lopez looked amazing in her own version of the lace over fabric trend.
J-Lo proved once again that she certainly isn't shy when it comes to red carpet attention. She wore a nude-and-lace long-sleeve Zuhair Murad gown paired with a side-swept hair-do. You cannot improve upon perfection but we think J-Lo could benefit from wearing something a little different since she seems to bring a similar look to every red carpet.

So we found this dress which we think would be an incredible look for Jennifer. This matte jersey plunging halter gown adorned with hand beaded large A/B and clear rhinestone appliques around the neckline and waistline is part of the Johnathan Kayne spring 2013 Prom Dress collection. The neckline would compliment any woman and the comfortable look of this dress makes it a natural match for Jennifer and her demeanor. Match this dress with this matching hand bag and shoes for a complete "red carpet" stunner.
check out Cyndi by Touch Ups. This is a 4 inch heel with a peep toe and platform featuring embedded crystals and the handbag is perfectly designed to match these shoes also designed by the Touch Ups people.





Sophia Vergara
We would expect nothing less from Sophia for her red carpet appearnce than something featuring a lot of bling. Sophia wore a sweetheart full length gown embedded with sequin and crystals. We think every girl should shine like this. But we also think black maybe a little overdone at this point.

We love this dress by Johnathan Kayne in royal blue. This is tyle 321 from Johnathan Kayne's spring 2013 collection. Get your glam on in this solid beaded and crystal sweetheart bodice gown. The slightly scooping cut out sides enhance the low back while the reversible sequin skirt adds a fun aspect to this unique design.
Finish off this look with this handbag and matching shoes.

The shoes are Bev by Touch Ups which feature embedded turquoise sequins on a 4 inch platform with an open toe and ankle strap. The handbag is designed by Touch Ups as well to be the perfect match for these shoes.

Light Up The Night Like Gaga and Perry

Katy Perry may have started a huge trend back in 2010 when she adorned herself and stunned everyone else by wearing a light up dress. Of course, the objective of the red carpet walk is to outshine everyone else. Katy definitely outshined with the help of an LED embedded dress. Since that night, other celebrities have adorned themselves in LED light up dresses.

Rihanna has worn what looks like a full length gown with embedded lights during a concert and of course, no one wears anything quite like Lady Ga Ga.






And while you may not have a personal designer to create your own custom dress complete with LED embedded goodness, we have found some very affordable light up dresses so you can "light it up" at your next special occasion.

 

 

Johnathan Kayne from Project Runway All Stars and Project Runway season 3 has designed dresses for many celebrities including Miss Universe contestant, Tara Connor and several Miss America contestants such as Taylor Treat in 2009, Emoly West in 2010 and Betty Thompson in 2011. Johnathan also worked very closely with the Oklahoma City Thunder girls on the design of their costumes back in 2011.

 

Johnathan has been seen on E!, ABC, NBC, Bravo and Lifetime channels. Johnathan's mission is to create an exciting, fashion forward brand that attracts women seeking innovation and quality. With that being said, it just stands to reason that Johnathan would design dresses that merge fashion with technology. Johnthan Kayne has desinged several affordable dresses which include the LED fashion statement.

Style 268

Sweetheart strapless cocktail dress with solid beading, large A/B crystals, and light wire. The light wire flashes fast, slow, and stays on and is powered by a AA battery power pack tucked away in the pocket of the taffeta and organza ruffle skirt. This dress is available in the Lime Green shown in the picture as well as aqua or hot pink.

 

 

Style 314
Be just like Gaga and Miss Perry with this innovative LED light-up dress. A taffeta strapless mini with removeable organza skirt flashes neon lights and has four different settings.












Style 317
A reversible sequin strapless mini with removeable organza ruffle skirt flashes neon lights & has four different settings.

 Johnathan Kayne also designs women's shoes with the same flair used to design his dresses. So if you're looking to light up the night with one of these dresses, you might as well get a pair of shoes designed to match your light up dress. My Shoe Connection has the entire collection of dresses with the LED as well all of Johnathan's spring 2013 Prom Dresses. All of the dresses feature a matching shoe from his shoe collection.
