Monica Rose Blog: Kim's Best Fashion Moment of 2009!

Us Weekly voted Kim's one shoulder white Ina Soltani gown she wore to the Emmys as look of the year! ( Remember the drama behind that dress!)



Seventeen Magazine voted the Toni Maticevski dress Kim wore to the Grammy Awards as one of the best style moments of 2009.



I would like to know what was your FAVORITE look? Leave your vote in the comment section on what you think was Kim's best red carpet look of 2009!




I get so many emails from you guys on how much you all love Kim's style. THANK YOU for the positive feedback!!! Kim's input is so important when I am styling her. She knows exactly what works for her body so that helps me out tremendously. I think that the key to making a red carpet dress work is making sure it fits the body to perfection. I always have to tailor everything to fit her body. A hem line too long or too short can ruin a dress. People always ask me where I get my ideas. I get inspired by new clothing while I am out pulling for my clients!

When I see an amazing dress or jacket I already know exactly what I am going to do with it. I am a visual person so I get ideas in my head and 98 percent of the time it just works. Don't get me wrong there have been many times in a fitting where I was like "oh NO what was I thinking!" and my client looks at me like I am crazy! LOL. But hey, at least we gave it a try. I take what I do very seriously and I never half ass my jobs because trust me you will see it in the end result what a half ass job can do to your client.

I am extremely dedicated and take full control and have 100 percent confidence in any job I take on. Whether it's taking on a new client, editorial, red carpet or a TV show, I am always up for a challenge! My clients trust me so I have to be in control at all times and I am constantly educating myself on the newest trends while researching new designers. My brain is always thinking ahead!

So, to all you aspiring stylists just know that one day you can be a celebrity stylist. I did not go to school to be a stylist. I just worked hard and stayed focused! Some people may call it a gift, some people may call it talent but I call it my passion! :)

Good luck to all of you in 2010!

XOXO

Monica Rose Blog: Kim's Fashion Emergency at the Emmy's

I am sure you have all heard about Kim’s wardrobe Malfunction at the Emmys. It is seriously every stylist's worst nightmare. That damn zipper!!! It happened to me last year at the Oscars and 2 years ago at the Emmys and I wanted to die every time. So it was no surprise to me when Kim called me freaking out because her zipper broke and the dress was ripped on the whole right side. I told her to keep it on and I was just going to sew it on her. When she arrived at the Emmys the producers were rushing me to hurry up and kept knocking on our door. What I thought would only take 10 minutes to sew took 30 minutes.

I was trying not to panic while I was sewing. My hands were shaking and I cut myself with the needle and noticed I got a little bit of blood on Kim’s white dress! Then I started freaking out and sweating like crazy because it was 180 degrees outside. I mean the pressure and stress we have on us can be crazy. Luckily there was another stylist next door that came over to help me sew Kim in her dress. I was giving her direction on what to do while Kim was taking pictures of the whole fiasco to put on her twitter. It was actually quite funny. We missed the opening of Live On The Red Carpet for E! but at least she did not miss the Red Carpet! Aaahhh the life of a stylist you never know what the hell is going to happen so always be prepared! Next time I will definately have a tailor on set.

Monica Rose Blog: Kim at the 2009 Emmy Awards

I found out very last minute that Kim was going to be attending the Emmy awards. I only had one day to find the perfect dress for her. When I saw this one shoulder gown by Ina Soltani I knew it was perfect! We tried a couple other options for good measure but we both agreed that this dress was the one.





Kim's earrings are by 14 Karats, ring is by Siera and her clutch is by Swarovski.
Mario Dedivanovic did a amazing job on Kim's makeup and Frankie Payne did Kim's hair perfect.

Monica Rose Blog: Kourtney at the 2009 Emmy Awards

I have to be honest, it was very challenging finding the perfect dress for Kourtney to wear to the Emmys. I wanted to make sure I got a dress that was comfortable and still made her feel small and sexy.



This is my first time working with someone who is pregnant. This was very challenging because at first everything I thought would work did not fit right. I love a challenge, so I was even more determined to find the right dress.



I ended up coming across this BCBG dress that was made with a comfortable fabric and was very easy to wear. I also knew it was going to be 100 degrees outside so I had to make sure the fabric was airy and lightweight.



Kourtney looked stunning and she was glowing. Mario Dedivanovic did her makeup and Frankie Payne did her hair. Her jewelry is by Super Gems.

Kourtney K's Blog: Emmy’s, Islands, K+K and Curb… What a Night!

Kim and I went to the 61st Annual Emmy Awards on Sunday to do some pre show red carpet stuff for E! Just as she and I were walking out the door, her zipper tore on her Ina Soltani gown. The second we pulled up at the awards, Kim went straight to our stylist who began sewing her dress shut! Kim missed the live red carpet bit, but we still walked the carpet together. She stayed for the show, and I was very tired, so I went home to relax with Scott and my brother Rob. We all went to Islands and ate yummy spinach dip, cheese fries and burgers! Delish! We also watched the new epsiode of Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami and the season premier of Curb Your Enthusiasm. What a night!

Kim and Kourtney Kardashian Grace the 2009 Emmy Awards

Are you enjoying the 2009 Emmy re-cap? We are beginning to wind down a bit but there are still several more amazing images I am thrilled to share. I am a huge fan of the Kardashian sisters and I think their style is pretty awesome. Sure there are some looks I like more than others, but both Kim Kardashian and preggo-eggo Kourtney Kardashian look extremely elegant as they glided down the red carpet.

Kim wore a great Ina Soltani dress that was both asymmetrical and spicy. One shoulder dresses and tops are huge this year and Kim pulled off an even more dramatic look – the one shoulder long sleeve. This is a look that is either amazing or horrendous – there is really no middle ground. And while you might not be able to see the rest, she is wearing Gucci Shoes and a Swarovski Clutch.

Older and preggy sister Kourtney looked stunning in a strapless navy blue BCBG Dress. Kourt looks absolutely stunning as a mom-to-be. Oh and one more thing… she wore Christian Louboutin shoes. It’s not that I don’t think you can wear super high heels when you are expecting, but I do find it worth giving some props.

Oh and one more thing. For any of you who watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians, and are familiar with mom Kris Kardashian, with these images of Kim, can’t you see a very striking resemblance? Kim’s facial expressions remind me so much of her mom – and this isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

Get The Face – Kim K @ The Emmy’s2009-09-23

Hey Beautiful! For this Emmy’s look, I gave the lovely Daneen over at Spoiled Pretty an exclusive on the makeup I used. Click here to check it out and find out more about Aquagirl eyeshadow that I custom blended at GIELLA cosmetics. Xox Mario

Get Kim's Face: @ 2009 Emmy's Awards

I want to say a big Thanks to Spoiled Pretty Blog for sharing her exclusive interview with Mario Dedivanovic (Kim Kardashian’s Make Up Artist) on Get Kim’s Face @ 2009 Emmy Awards Beauty Tips. .

"Kim was wearing a gorgeous white gown and I wanted the focus to be on her eyes. I had custom blended this pretty shade of blue shadow at GIELLA custom blend cosmetics in NYC and was waiting for the perfect occasion to dip into it. With her hair slicked back and a white off the shoulder gown, I was certain that it would work with the rest of the face done clean and dewy, with a nude matte lip."



"I prepped Kim’s skin with Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Moisturizer first, followed by Diorskin Nude Natural Glow Hydrating Makeup all over. To set skin, I applied a bit of Laura Mercier's Loose Setting Powder in Beige. Her brows are filled in with Diorshow Brow Styler Ultra-Fine Precision Brow Pencil, concentrating on the outer corners."

"For her eyes, I sprayed a bit of water on an eyeshadow brush (this picks up and holds loose eyeshadow better) and dipped it into Aquagirl eyeshadow by GIELLA - custom blended by yours truly ;-). I applied Aquagirl all over the eyelids up to the crease, blending well so there are no lines. "



"On the inner corners of the eyes, apply GIELLA's b-dazzle eyeshadow. Use the leftovers on the brush to lightly sweep onto the brow bone. You dont want the brow bone to appear very shiny or light as it will look dated. Smoke Aquagirl shadow along the lower lash line as well. For more drama, you can take it all the way into the inner corners. Use Fascinating Eye Kohl by MAC on the inner rims of the eyes. Curl lashes a couple of times and apply two coats of Lancome Hypnose Mascara on top and bottom lashes. If you want super long lashes like Kim, apply a few individual long lashes to each eye. "

"Kim's skin is bronzed with Casino by NARS. Use a bit on a brush and apply it along the hairline. With a smaller brush, apply more onto the hollows of the cheeks. Use Orgasm by NARS on the apples of the cheeks. To highlight the cheekbones and bridge of nose, I swept a tiny bit of b-dazzle shadow by GIELLA and blended with a clean brush. "

"I lined Kim's lips with Subculture by MAC, then blended a dab of the Dior foundation to her lips. Blot that with a tissue and use Honeylove Lipstick, also by MAC."

Kim K's Blog: Get The Look: Spoiled Pretty's Beauty Breakdown with Mario

My wonderful makeup artist Mario chatted with the ladies at Spoiled Pretty and gave a really detailed breakdown of the products he used to create my Emmy's look and the steps he used to achieve it.

I really loved this look! I don't wear blue eyeshadow very often but it added something unique to the look and made it bright and fresh. A smokey look would have been too heavy for the dress, so this was so perfect! Mario always knows the exact makeup look to do to compliment an outfit.

I Hosted the Emmys Fashion Police!

Yesterday I hosted the 2009 Emmys Fashion Police with E!'s Giuliana Rancic and Jay Manuel from America's Next Top Model. It was AMAZING!!!!!! I live for fashion so it was such an honor that I was given this opportunity. I seriously couldn't believe they asked me -- I was SO flattered!

I wish I could have gone to the show with my sisters but this definitely made up for it! We talked about fashion's best and worst from the red carpet, and everyone there was so stunning that it was hard to pick out any fashion disasters. LOL. I died for January Jones!!! She looked incredible!

My stylist Monica Rose styled me and I wore an Alexander Wang dress and Christian Louboutin booties, which are the ankle-high boots that I love! So comfy :)

Just wanted to share these pics that Monica took of me. Who do you think were the fashion bests and worsts of the 2009 Emmy Awards???

Stars Turn Up the Heat With Red Dresses at the Emmys

TREND: Red dresses

WHO'S WEARING IT: Blake Lively (Versace), Hayden Panettiere (J. Mendel), Debra Messing (Michael Kors)

HOW TO WEAR IT: You're already drawing attention to yourself with the bright color, so there's no need for plunging necklines or heavy makeup. Follow Debra's lead and look for subtle details like beading, ruffles, an open back or an asymmetrical neckline to make the dress stand out.

Kim K's Blog: Fashion Emergency at the Emmy's!

I had a major fashion emergency at the 2009 Primetime Emmy Awards last night! I had this beautiful white gown by Ina Soltani and in the car on the way over my entire zipper ripped! It just popped! I freaked out and called my stylist Monica who was at the Emmy's waiting for me with a needle and thread to sew up my entire dress! It took about 30 minutes and I missed my live hit with Kourtney! I couldn't believe it! But I made it in time to go to the show and the Emmy's was such an amazing experience! It was my first Emmy awards and everyone was so glamourous! Drew Barrymore, Tina Fey, everyone was there! What a great show!
