Ridin' Solo!

I'm back! Again! Sorry but I just graduated in a master and things were so chaotic!! I had to finish my thesis and had to deal with my careless professor supervisor.
BTW, recently I was thinking that in the past 2 years I was still listening to the same set of songs, with some temporary obsession for some catchy songs which passed after a couple of weeks.
I felt like lately music was always the same, nothing new, same patterns, same bases... in other words, boring!!
However, in the last couple of weeks, I've rediscovered some artists that I forgot about and also discovered some nice new songs from fresh singers, which is nice! It's always nice explore different music! It's refreshing! Sometimes we're stucked with some songs that just remind us sad or bad things and automatically we feel that way. But sometimes, new music can bring that new energy and can affect our mood in a good or bad way, it depends.



Thanks to a playlist that I heard on BBC Radio 1 I've discovered some new songs that right now are stucked in my head!
The first is the debut single of Harry Styles and the other one is the new song by John Mayer, "Still feel like your man".



Talking about Harry Styles, who came right from a band and now he's working as a solo artist, I was thinking about all those singers that reached fame through a band or group and then start a solo career, leaving behind their band mates and becoming a super star.

Dear Bafta, dear Grammys..



Last night was a one of the biggest night of the year: they call them the british and the music oscars respectively, but in the same night? Why? Too much to handle!

 I begin with my beloved british people and the BAFTA! I should say that this year the wives of the male partecipants, won! They wore the best outfits and they were simply stunning!
 Sophie Hunter, the pregnant fiancee of Benedict Cumberbatch, was simply beautiful with her black dress matching the black tuxedo of her husband-to-be.
I loved the glittery dress of Hannah Bagshaw, newly wife of the best leading actor Eddie Redmayne. It's amazing.
And then we arrive to Sam Claflin's wife, Laura Haddock and her stunning Ashli Couture gown. So dreamy!

 




Should we talk about the amount of really good looking men present at the British Academy of Film and Television Arts?? Yes, we should!
We start from the young Romeo from Romeo and Juliet's movie, Douglas Booth (which for the record I met 2 years ago during the filming. So adorable!), passing though Superman, Henry Cavill and finishing with a masterpiece of fashion and soccer, the evergreen, David Beckham.
I really appreciated both the modern tuxedo of Douglas and the classical ones of Henry and David.





Let's pass to the women! Stunning women!
The frech actress and next bond girl Lea Seydoux wore an amazing canary yellow Prada gown. 
In my opinion is has a really retro taste and it's so elegant but it was made modern through the cuts on the sides.

  

Another beautiful dress was the one of Lara Pulver. She wore a total white outfit with little feathers. I found it really nice.



 To me the best dressed of the Bafta, was Natalie Dormer, the Anne Boleyn of the Tudors and princess Margaery Tyrell of Game of Thrones. Natalie was wearing a Sophia Kah dress, Casadei shoes, and Yoko London jewels. She perfectly wore also a pair of matching blue lace gloves which I found really particular.

 

 Plus, these two handsomes blew a kiss directly from the awards.. Thank you Chris and Henry!




And then the Grammys! The american music "Oscars"!
I must admit that I wasn't so impressed by a lot of outfits but there were some good pieces of fashion.
Meghan Trainor wore a gorgeous black and brown sheer gown by Galia Lahav; I loved the the sheer and lace.




 Jessie J wore a sexy black Ralph and Russo dress with a touch of sparkly and trasparency that shows her long legs.






 Lady Gaga was super posh with her silver dress from Brandon Maxwell.



Gwen Stefani and Anna Kendrik chose a total black look, which is always good!
Gwen wore an Atelier Versace jumpsuit and Anna wore Band of Outsiders suit, Jimmy Choo shoes, Venyx World jewelry, Jacquie Aiche and Uma K rings, and Ferragamo clutch. To me, these outfits were some of the best.




Kat Graham wore a stunning Yanina Couture gown, Sophia Webster shoes, a Swarovski clutch, Carrera y Carrera rings, and AS29 earrings.





Ariana Grande, Jennifer Hudson and Chrissy Teigen chose a white outfit and they were wonderful.
Ariana wore a Versace white and silver dress, Jennifer wore a Tom Ford dress, DSquared2 shoes, Jimmy Choo bag, and jewels by Casa Real, Jorge Adeler, and Jack Vartanian. Chrissy opted for a white a revealing dress from Gucci.





Taylor Swift wore an amazing turquoise Elie Saab dress, Giuseppe Zanotti shoes, Lorraine Schwartz earrings and ring, and Ofira pave bands.




The first prize for the best dressed, to me, goes to Rihanna with her breath taking Giambattista Valli's haute couture dress! I loved it so much! I also talked about this dress here.







 And finally also a man! John Mayer was so handsome with his dark blue and black tuxedo. He also performed "Thinking out Loud" with Ed Sheeran.






We should highlight also the infamous Kanye West for jokingly try to interrup the award of Beck like he did with Taylor Swift years before.




 That's all for now

Talk to you soon
