Love awards nights?

Me, too!

But aside from finding out the winners (and of course the losers) in any awards event, one of the first things that comes to my mind is of course fashion! Because aside from an event to convene the stars, awards events are reasons for celebrities to ‘outdress’ each other.

And so for this year’s MTV Europe Music Awards last Thursday (November 6) held in Liverpool, England, let us find out whose look stood out and grabbed everybody’s attention.

Beyoncé

On the event was bootylicious Beyoncé who arrived wearing a Gareth Pugh’s black dress from the designers Fall ‘08 collection and accessorized with Giuseppe Zanotti heels. While the frock is captivating already, I must say it is B’s hair I love the most. – So classy and oh-so glamorous!

So you’ve seen Jordin Sparks and the rest of the stars in their most glamorous and fabulous looks at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards last Sunday. But did you know that Jordin’s eye-catching look wouldn’t be complete without Pantera?

Yep, the American Idol star’ gold feather ear cuff from Pantera Jewels, leant a rock and roll edge to Jordin’s lady-like dress.

Pantera jewels, a new favorite of many stars such as Kim Kardashian, Hayden Panettiere, Paris Hilton and Michelle Yeoh is Hollywood’s newest craving. Pantera, most famous for the ear cuffs (seen here on Jordin) combine glamour with a new symbolic take on the rock and roll look . Using 14 and 18kt gold in every color and diamonds in black or white, these precious jewels are unlike any other.

Pantera fine jewelry collection’s logo is a Black Panther paw, the designer’s favorite animal. The animal’s description: graceful, sleek, exotic and very powerful, fully describes the jewelry line. Each piece has an empowering energy with a deep symbolic meaning and a story behind it. The symbols used by Pantera include the Fleur De Lis, the Malteze Cross, the Angel wing and the Dagger which all have deep historical and symbolic meaning. The feather that Jordin wears here is no exception – feathers have served as symbols of royalty for kings and chiefs. Feathers are also symbols of healing or symbols of sacred power for cultures as far back as the Egyptians, Asian and Celtic eras.

The ear cuff worn here by Jordin is 14 Gold and retails for $900. The ear cuff with the feather charm is detachable and can be worn with any earring. The cuff attaches to the top of the ear without need for piercing.

Whew! It seems like we really can’t get enough of last night’s MTV Video Music Awards. We already had two batches of the various celebrity fashion looks at the event.

Now, here’s the last and final batch of those looks that hit and missed last night.

Rihanna, Rihanna, Rihanna… I guess being edgy and different is just her way of presenting who she is. And always on her daring self (when it comes to style), the singer graced the event with a layered and gilded bustier dress with white T-strap pumps matching her platinum streak in a cropped ‘do. While I can’t say that I so love the frock, I guess her pumps did the magic for me. – Love it!

You’ve already seen the first batch of the various interesting looks (both best and worst) at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards last night on my previous post. And now, let’s continue with our celebrity fashion scope on the recently concluded awards night.

Starting off the second batch is the night’s biggest winner, Britney Spears in a glittering vintage Atelier Versace dress matched with Platt jewels and Jimmy Choo heels. So it took her a year to ‘recover’ from her last year’s VMA disaster number, but Britney showed she indeed can make her comeback. Britney bagged three Moonmen that include the night’s big honor, video of the year, for her hit “Piece of Me.”
