I personally think the Grammys’ red carpet was kind of blah this year.  Very few people took any real risks and there were few looks that made me go wow unless you include Madonna exposing her booty.  When you are Madonna and at this stage in the game, there really is no need for antics like that.  Anyways, I digress.  There were a few looks that did stand out to me last night.

I loved that Taylor Swift wore hot pink Giuseppe Zanotti wedge sandals with her Elie Saab gown.  Her pairing of hot pink sandals with her emerald green dress was as risky as it got last nigh and it was a great youthful look for her.  Her red carpet looks have come a long way.

Ciara wowed in an Alexandre Vauthier black couture gown paired with Christian Louboutin “Mea Culpa” black pumps.  The gown was a true work of art with its cascading ruffles so it was great that she paired with a pair of simple black pumps which would not distract away from the dress.  It was a fabulous look for her.

Gwen Stefani went with an Atelier Versace jumpsuit paired with a  pair of Christian Louboutin embellished black stilettos.  The stilettos were a perfect match for the jumpsuit which, Stefani described as “a work of art.”  By the way, I love the jumpsuit trend that is emerging on the red carpet during this year’s awards season.
