Jessica Alba stepped onto the red carpet at the Clinton Foundation’s Decade of Difference Gala in Los Angeles, wearing jewelry by Kara Ackerman Designs. She looked stunning in the GemGirls Pave Disc earrings, that added a touch of sophistication.

Nickelodeon’s Victorious star Victoria Justice hit the red carpet looking fresh and chic in an Isabel Lu Double Layer Lace Long Sleeve Top in Ivory. The soft  ivory was a well balanced contrast from the roughness of her jeans. Her look was an excellent combination of casual chic with a soft feminene touch and was the perfect ensamble for the Teen Vogue Haute Spot hosted during Mercedes-Benz New York Fashion Week.

The red carpet’s been rolled up for yet another year, and you can almost hear the entire city take a deep breath and relax.  As the celebrity pomp and circumstance make an exit from stage right – what’s left is the “OMG, did you see what she was wearing” and the “how can I get that look”.   Just as much a tradition as “thanking the Academy” on award’s night is dissecting the styles and looks from the Oscars and making them your own.   While you may not go all out J-Lo for your next date night – even a touch of new trend can update your look and keep you in the here and now.  Here’s the cliff notes version from this year’s big event…

It’s great to see ladies like Gossip Girl lead Leighton Meester and Super actress Liv Tyler switch off between gowns and jeans on the red carpet, proving there are lots of ways to stay casual while keeping with the glamour of an event.  What girl doesn’t want to keep it comfy yet still look amazing?

There are some tricks to pulling off the relaxed glam look and we here at Style Seen Daily have put together some great tips on how to best pull this off with jeans, accessories and shoes.  So, read on for a few basic pieces and styles to pump up your look and still keep it relaxed.

Jeans

It’s all about the skinny jean.  Stick with a dark denim or black skinny jean. These jeans will become like your second skin.  You can pair skinny jeans with a silky top and scarf, or a graphic tee and blazer. Skinny jeans are sleek and show off your figure almost as well as a short dress, like they do on Sara Paxton.

Accessories

You can take a day-at-the-office look and make it look red carpet ready. Switch out your laptop bag for a bright colored or animal print purse, add statement jewelry like a funky chain necklace or a thick bangle, and throw on a leather jacket. Your black pants and button down shirt will go from business casual to casual chic in a no time. Actress Kristen Wiig pumps up her casual look with a big multi-layered chain necklace.

Shoes

Platforms, wedges, and oxford flats are all the rage right now so its easier to keep your shoe choices fun. Strappy heels and black satin pumps are great for the Oscars, but for a more laid-back event, spice up your casual outfit with a studded heel or lace up flats and you will instantly glamorize your look. We have spotted fashionistas on the carpet wearing cargo pants with studded booties or a sundress with a chunky heel sandal. Like Liv Tyler’s look, funky shoes add some personality to your casual outfit and it keeps your look fun and trendy.

The human stars behind the Tangled stars, Zachary Levi and Mandy Moore at the Los Angeles Hollywood premiere on Sunday, November 14, 2010.

Flashing lights, neon signs, Hollywood sparkle. By these few words just spoken, you would think a guy like me was heading to the premiere of Burlesque. False. In reality, I hit the red carpet of the premiere of Disney’s Tangled. The scene is Hollywood Boulevard, the center of dreams and all things glamour. Specifically, this red carpet was hosted at the El Capitan Theater, a staple in most of Disney’s premieres.

When we arrived, the usual press check in seemed rather quick, considering the waiting like was nearly a block. Grabbing my spot on the carpet felt surreal when I looked down to see my sites name as one of the lucky few chosen to have a spot. Besides the rushing thrill of buses quickly passing us by and appropriately covered with Tangled poster art, it was time to get down to business and interview the stars.

The film is the story of Rapunzel, which if you don’t already know about, please remove the rock you live under and head to your local computer area. More specifically Google.com. However, this film changed its name to Tangled, so the emphasis was taken off of the princess scenario. You see, last years The Princess & The Frog was successful, but not as successful as Disney had hoped. Therefore, the title was changed to give the option of little boys wanting to check out the action, and not being deferred because it was a story of a Princess.

Moving along, the statuesque beauty, Mandy Moore voiced Rapunzel. We were given an opportunity to ask her a few questions. I know, I know, I’m supposed to ask questions about this role, but I just couldn’t help it. Mandy was featured in one of my favorite movies, Southland Tales. I wanted to know out of the roles she’s played, which was her favorite? A quick stump, and a bright smile, gave way to “A Walk to Remember, because it was my first film” and what a good role it was.

Chuck star Zachary Levi, voices the role of Flynn – a bad boy type, if you will. A dream come true for Zach, who admitted to us “I was the kid running around singing songs from Aladdin.” Clearly, this role was a dream come true. Something all of you may not know about him is that the man can sing, he gets to flex those pipes alongside Mandy in the duet, I See the Light, which is featured in the film. In addition to the many talents this actor expresses, we learned that producing is definitely at the top of his list, he’s started a company and it looking to possibly remake some 80′s films her enjoys. The task is not easy, but he’s hoping to shed some light and do things a little differently. We’ll have to wait and see.

The excitement of the cast and crew, the genuine appreciation of the Disney genre and the fact that Tangled marks Disney’s 50th animated film are all contributing factors that the kid in me came back. I admit it, I want to be a part of the experience and check it out on Thanksgiving. So, I say to you, take your family – kids, parents, uncles & friends. Check out the film and be a part of the experience, in theaters November 24, 2010.

Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer arrives for the 62nd Primetime Emmy Awards Sunday, Aug. 29, 2010, in Los Angeles. Anna's on trend with the gold and black pairing. Alexander McQueen dress.

The 62nd Primetime EMMY Awards Show hosted by the amazingly talented and funny host Jimmy Fallon brought Hollywood out in full force.  And while Fallon did a great job entertaining the crowd with his guitar, we here at Style Seen Daily couldn’t help but notice the trend in up do fashions, highlighting the neck.  Celebrities like Anna Paquin, Christina Hendricks, Heidi Klum and more all rocked the red carpet with their hair pulled back.

How To Get Anna Paquin’s Hairstyle

When it came to creating an Emmys hairstyle for Anna Paquin, stylist Renato Campora knew just where to look for inspiration: her Alexander McQueen gown. “The dress is very strong, and I wanted to show off her shoulders and neck,” he explains. “I didn’t want her hair to seem too severe, so I created a loose structure.”

First, Renato worked the lightweight Frédéric Fekkai Full Volume Mousse through Anna’s damp hair. To keep her hair smooth and prevent flyaways, he worked in Fekkai Silky Straight Smooth Finish serum before blow-drying hair. Try Frédéric Fekkai Coiff Contrôle – Ironless Straightening Balm and instead of using a brush, use your fingers.

When Anna’s hair was dry, Renato used a curling iron with a ½-inch barrel to create waves, then pinned the hair to let the curls set for 15 minutes. Then, he ran his fingers through the underside of her hair, pulled her hair back and created a French twist. He created a bit of volume at the top of Anna’s hair by gently pushing it with his hands, then securing it with bobby pins. Finally, he sprayed hair with Frédéric Fekkai Coiff Fini – Sheer Hold Hairspray. “It’s a modern, soft look,” Renato says.

With stars like the Kardashian sisters and the cast of Gossip Girl gracing the red carpet at the 2010 Teen Choice Awards, there was no doubt that the Teen Choice awards would be a fashionable venue. The fashions on the red carpet, which was turned into a blue carpet for the event, ranged from trendy to classic, but all were equally fabulous. Hosted by Katy Perry, along with co-hosts from the hit show ‘Glee,’ the Teen Choice Awards definitely held their own in Hollywood this year.

Mini dresses were seen all over the red carpet in many colors and textures, from a sophisticated, organza Stella McCartney dress to an asymetrical Preen bandage dress. One trend that was hot on the red carpet was the nude look. Many stars, including Lea Michele, of ‘Glee’ and Selena Gomez, donned nude heels with their mini dresses. ‘Twilight’ star Ashley Greene also accentuated her summer glow with a blush colored dress by Valentino that featured floral detailing.

Disney Channel star Selena Gomez took home the title of Female Choice Red Carpet Fashion Icon, in addition to a couple other awards, and her red carpet choice for 2010, a white BCBG mini dress, was definitely one to be seen. Choice Male Hottie and ‘Twilight’ actor, Taylor Lautner, was also named Male Choice Red Carpet Fashion Icon.

The 2010 Teen Choice Awards were no doubt a fashionable, fun event for all ages, and even stars like Cat Deeley and LL Cool J made an appearance at the award show.  Over the past 12 years, the Teen Choice Awards have evolved into an event that all celebrities want to attend. The signature, custom-made surfboard awarded to winners has even become a coveted piece among many young celebrities. Since 1999, the Teen Choice Awards, which aired Monday, August 9th on Fox, have been devoted to honoring achievements in entertainment, as decided by teens.

We here at Style Seen Daily have put together a slideshow of the red carpet looks from Nickelodeon’s 2009 Kids’ Choice Awards.

Loose flowing ruffles were popular among the starlets like Megan Fox and Miley Cyrus.  Super star Cameron Diaz and musician Pete Wentz went with a more relaxed Americana look.  And Victoria Justice rocked the deconstructed jacket over a purple short dress.  

The looks on the Kids’ Choice carpet covered the gamet — from “Ugly Betty” star America Ferrera in a classic hollywood glamour look dressed  in a red dress to singer Colbie Caillot wearing a bright yellow day dress WITH flip flops!  

Our SSD favorite item we spotted:  Megan Fox’s platform shoes that looked great with her lavender toe nail polish.  As for our SSD least favorite item:  Again we pick American Idol judge Paula Abdul (she was also our worst Grammy 2009 look, sorry Paula we’re just being straight up).  As you can see for yourself in our gallery below, Abdul just had too much going on with the accessories and it looks more like a costume then an actual look….
