The 2011 MTV movie awards, hosted by Jason Sudeikis, is being held at the Gibson Amphitheater in Los Angeles this year. As far as anyone in Hollywood is concerned, that means one thing: Kari Feinstein’s Style Lounge at the W Hotel is in session.  So of course, Style Seen Daily was in attendance to mix and mingle among some of tinsel towns trendsetters to give you a VIP look inside the event..

Celebrities flock to the Style Lounge each year because Kari and her team at McGuiness and Feinstein PR bring in some of the top names in skin care, jewelry, denim, apparel and even popcorn.

One thing we had on our mind the entire event was the coming summer season. We had to ask, what are celebrities top 3 vacation necessites?
We sat down with Stephanie Pratt to talk summer style.

TOMS, the shoe brand known for its One for One motto, launched its new line of footwear inspired by the late social activist Dan Eldon. Both TOMS and Eldon’s stories are incredible which is why it makes sense the worlds have collided. TOMS, which is based in LA, manufactures shoes with a purpose; for each pair of shoes purchased, a pair of shoes is given to a child in need in countries in South America, Africa, and even parts of the U.S. This launch party, held at their new gallery space at Space 15 Twenty in Hollywood was an event filled with great food, celebrities, inspirational speakers, and of course, shoes.

Dan Eldon was a social activist and photographer in the 1990′s, he was brutally stoned to death at age 23 while shooting meaningful photos in a dangerous city in Africa. This new TOMS line features shoes inspired by Africa, Dan’s photographs, and his journal that kept amazing stories about his journey.

Dan Eldon's incredible life and vision produced multiple books all revolving around the thought that the journey is the destination. Photo Credit: Steven Garcia

Eldon and his family’s story is inspirational, and will soon be turned into a movie starring Julia Roberts playing Dan’s mother Kathy Eldon.

A few hours before the event, my Aunt Joanne Marien, who attended the event with me, found out her non-profit organization Good For Kids, which benefits children in Costa Rica, will now be receiving shipments of 17,000 TOMS shoes for the children. She was thrilled to talk to Blake and thank him for everything he has done to help the world’s children.

Umami, known for it’s gourmet burgers, had passed platters of several types of juicy sliders, sweet potato fries, french fries, smushed potatoes, and my favorite, cheese tots. The food was a hit and so was the Ultimate Vodka drinks and music spun by DJ Egon.

Ali Fedotowsky of "The Bachelorette" in THE SHOE by JOE'S and a Susie Rose dress.

Celebrities are flocking to JOE’S Jeans, for more than just jeans, to fill their closets. Although the name may be deceiving, the brand actually offers a variety of products for men and women ranging from t-shirts and blouses to jeans, and even shoes. JOE’S is becoming an ever popular company among many fashionable celebrities such as Audriana Patridge, Rachel Bilson, and Blake Lively.

Ali Fedotowsky, of  The Bachelorette, was recently seen out and about in Los Angeles wearing THE SHOE by JOE’S.  This shoe is great because it’s versatile and can be worn with a daytime look, like Ali’s, or even worn with a pair of JOE’s Jean Leggings as part of an evening look. We really liked how Ali paired the cognac wedges with a Susie Rose dress, sold in Wal-Mart stores, that costs only $14.

Blake Lively in The T by JOE's in New York City with beau Penn Bagdley.

Style Seen Daily spotted Gossip Girl lead actress Blake Lively in New York City wearing The T by JOE’S.   We liked how she tied her casual look together with a pair of The Girls Apparel capri pants.

The O.C’s Rachel Bilson wore The Shirt by JOE’S while out with a friend in Beverly Hills. Although this shirt is from the men’s collection, she makes it work for both sexes. The popular relaxed fit, red and navy plaid shirt was paired with a pair of leggings, t-shirt, and a scarf to complete Rachel’s effortless look.

Audrina Patridge spotted in Hollywood wearing The Jean Legging by JOE'S.

Audrina Patridge of The Hills looked chic in The Jean Legging by JOE’S while out with friends in Hollywood. The Jean Legging is sold is a variety of colors and styles, but to pull together her edgy look Audrina chose the black mineral wash for this night out on the town and accented her look with a chain link purse and flat suede boots.

Style Seen Daily friend and San Diego Chargers Linebacker Shaun Phillips co-hosted the “Modern Man” party for Angeleno Magazine at the rooftop pool of The Residences At W Hollywood.

Angeleno also asked four other “modern men” to host the event with Shaun, including Jesse Waits owner of Drai’s Hollywood, Pedro Marti wealth management advisor for Wells Fargo, Matt Petersen president of Global Green, and Tom Drumm from The Safran Company.

Shaun reveals that he dresses to match his beloved convertible Maserati.  ”Always,” he said. “I love my car.”  OMG I can’t even ask him what he has named his car… some things just better left unasked.  However I did ask Shaun about his suit and learned he had it custom made by Astor and Black.

Jesse Waits, owner of Drai’s Hollywood, said being being successful to him is “not about the money, but about being the best in the world at doing something different.”  (Note: As soon as Drai’s Hollywood opened it scored a scene in Entourage as the new “it” club.)

Party goers at the Angelino "Modern Man" event were able to watch the sunset and check out the Los Angeles skyline atop The Residences At W Hollywood while enjoying cocktails and appetizers.

Matt Peterson, Global Green CEO, wore a suit made out of organic wool and recycled audio cassette tapes — yes AUDIO tapes. Matt personally works with such celebrities as Leonardo DiCaprio, James Cameron, Jessica Alba and Eva Longoria to help raise awareness of being more green.  Matt said, “well you know when a celebrity steps up people pay attention so we’re doing all we can to use that opportunity to drive us in the right direction.”  IE being more green friendly.  Click here to learn more about Global Green.

Tom Drumm, Talent Manager at The Safran Company, said that he advises men to find a girl with great style to help guide them to looking and feeling their best.  What a smart man.  Drumm said, “whatever (my girlfriends) say, I do.”  I mean, super genius smart, right?

Event sponsors included Don Julio Tequila (my favorite) and Johnnie Walker Scotch Whiskey.

Arizona Cardinals Foootball Star Matt Leinart made his NFL friends break out their check books at his 4th annual Bowling For Charity Event at Lucky Strike Lanes in Hollywood, California.  No joke.  He is so passionate about his charity, the Matt Leinart Foundation, that he got on a mic in the middle of the bowling lanes and started calling out names.  He wanted his friends to support his Los Angeles based football league for kids in need.  And immediately New Orleans Saints Player Reggie Bush is asking for a pen as he knows his good friend means business.  Then, Tennesse Titans Quarterback Vince Young quickly donates $5,000.

Next, it’s 24 year old Tennessee Titans star Chris Johnson‘s turn to get called out.  ”You’re gonna land a big contract,”  Leinart yelled half jokingly.  Johnson just won an ESPY Award the previous night for Breakthrough Athlete.

Leinhart thanked the packed house who came out to the bowling event and said that, “this year is the biggest yet.”   Two tickets to Superbowl 2011 were auctioned off for $8,000 in between bowling time.

I challenged Giants Player Ramses Barden to a round of bowling (yes that’s right, just a round, I’m too ADD for anything more than that).  And made him strike his best bowling pose…

And I learned an interesting fact, that I will for sure bring up next NFL season at a bar, maybe to start up in a conversation or something, I like fun facts.  Ok here it is….

Fun Fact: Ranses Baden is the tallest wide receiver in the NFL standing at 6 Foot 6 Inches.

Did you know that?   Yep, go ahead, you can take that and tweet it.

While superstar athletes and guests bowled, a silent auction was also happening to help raise money.

Live It Productions International put on the event for the foundation.  Live It Productions Owner Charlie Venturi told me the event was a big success because Matt has such a big heart and that, ” I have gone to Matt’s camp and it’s amazing to see the smiles on these kids.”  Charlie continues to say, “I can’t believe how excited they get when Matt gives them their own football.  It’s simply amazing.”

100 percent of the money raised at the event goes towards the Matt Leinhart Foundation, click here for more information.

At the 81th Annual Academy Awards held at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood 2009, Slumdog Millionaire Star Frieda Pinto was one of the many starlets wearing an asymmetrical dress.

The red carpet at the 2009 Oscars in Hollywood, California proved that the shoulder and collarbone is the current “it” body part.  

Starlets wearing asymmetrical or strapless one color gowns to highlight this new sexy area were everywhere.  In fact, I dare you to find me an amazing dress at the Oscars that had 2 straps.  Go on post it below….    

Also, it’s all about picking a color and sticking with it.  And the good news here — monochrome (ie outfits that are all one color) are great for helping you appear more slim.    

We have a mini fashion round up for you —  take a look at some highlights of the fashions below in our Style Seen Daily slideshow.  

You’ll find actress Amy Adams and super model Heidi Klum both in classic red long gowns.  They made their look more fashion forward with adding statement jewelry.  Adams decided to stick with one statement necklace while Klum forgo the necklace and added huge drop down earrings and 6 bangle bracelets (3 of which she designed herself for charity).

Beyonce’s look wasn’t the best marketing tool for her or her fashion line — the dress was her own, from House of Derion, and fashion critics everywhere are saying they did not like the mermaid dress.  It was too gody.  What are your thoughts?

Miley Cyrus also did not pass the fashion tests with many fashionistas.  Cyrus said the dress she wore was the first one she tried on… perhaps she should have tried on some more.  Again, it was too gody.  And it wasn’t age appropriate for the teenager.

Sarah Jessica Parker and Anne Hathaway both are examples of the several cream shimmering strapless dresses we saw on the carpet.   Both dresses looked amazing on the two style setters.

Mickey Rourke chose a white suite — sunglasses go without saying for this actor — and he had a necklace with a picture of his recently deceased dog, Loki.   

Angelina Jolie also wore a strapless long gown in black.  She had amazing drop down green earrings that added a pop of color.  Jolie ofcourse wins for the best accessory  –  Brad Pitt!  

And the lady of the night, best actress winner Kate Winslet, wore a two-tone Yves Saint Laurent by Stefano Pilati dress.  Again, note the “sexy shoulder.”
