Award Show Fashion: 2010 SBS Drama Awards

Last week was the SBS Drama Awards in Korea and compared to Hong Kong celebs, Koreans are a lot less daring and believe that simple elegance is the best. Let's start to critique:

Nam Gyu Ri looked like a princess in this simple and chic tulle gown. I wish someone sponsored her some jewelry, it would've looked great with a large statement necklace. Without any accessories, it leaves the style looking unfinished.
Han ChaeAh looked ultra femme in this overall elegant silhouetteMin Hyo Rin donned this sparkling silver mini and sexy platform pumps to the show.

Han Hye Jin paired her luxurious purple gown with shiny gold shoes making purple + gold my new favorite color combo.
My new favorite couple Ha Ji Won and Hyun Bin from the drama Secret Garden (look forward to a drama fashion post soon!) Aww, I love how they coordinated their dark blue outfits, I can't stop gushing over them!
Kim So Yeon in a beautiful black gown that not only accentuates the body but also draws the eye up with an interesting cutout. Kinda wish she spent a bit more time on her hair.
Go Hyun Jung looks very top heavy in this gown
Park Jin Hee, Lee Soo Kyung and Lee Bum Soo all chose plain and simple black ensembles
Kang Sung Yun donned an all black one-shoulder gown, again nothing too exciting
Hwang Jung Eum kept it demure and simple for the event and opted for an embellished deep-v dress
Hong Ji Min popped a pose in the only other purple gown of the night
WonYoo Min in a very matronly printed dress.Moon Chae looks ready for bed instead of the red carpet in this lacy nightgown
Yoo Ho Jung, as the material is probably stiff and length of the gown is too long it results in a very sloppy pile at the bottom of the dress. The poof sleeves and the big fur vest just adds to the clunkiness of the outfit.


Sound off with me, leave me a comment below with who you thought was best dressed!

Fashionable Asians of the Week

Award Show Fashion: 2010 Melon Music Awards

Last week was the 2010 Melon Music Awards (Korea's version of the Grammys) and as expected 2NE1 were the big winners at the awards and on the red carpet.
2NE1 always knows how to rock the red carpet but Bom (far right) looked kinda hookerish in her mini leather dress and fur shawl !_!Although Dara was the most muted of the quartet, I loved her look the most, such a cool looking knit vest! ^.^
Yoon Ji Min looked great in this sparkly mini

Kim Jung Hwa in an outfit that lacked, well... everything

Singer Gummy kept it casual in all black suit

SNSD/Girl's Generation ladies all wore matching booties and coordinating black outfits, with a couple of members wearing white and neon green
I liked the slits on her leggings, damn these Korean girls and their sticks for legs!
Not a fan of the Neon Green color but I like how cool this puffy skirt looks
Her attempts to try to liven up this outfit with color is kinda sad because these two purple hues are not complimentary colors!

I would totally rock this dress for a holiday party

This dress does nothing for her figure and with her skintone, she should've picked out a brighter color
It looks like she's got a fox on her shoulders and a snake on her feet, overall not a very exciting outfit
What can I say? Koreans aren't very into wearing color... :P

Award Show Fashion: 2010 Mnet Asian Music Awards

This year's Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA) were held in Macao instead of Korea and my man TaeYang won Best Male Singer award (Solar was the best korean album I've ever listened to!) Damn he's fine and what an amazing performance by TaeYang, TOP and G-Dragon! I'm not good at recognizing some Korean singers so if you know please help me fill in the blanks :T I got them off Korean websites and I can't read Korean :(

TaeYang ~.~ (this one's for you Mara! haha)

Props to her for being the only one to wear some color last night, the perfect dress for the perfect settingMy second favorite dress of the night, the glitter and the deep V cut made the it stand out more
Actress Yoon Eun Hye adorned her simple dress with an embellished belt

The Wonder Girls rocking the sexy military look

Miss A in coordinating leather outfits
iMe wearing bubblegum pink dresses, I think after you turn 18 it is no longer cute to wear bugglegum pink dresses, it is just Halloween slutty =_= but that's just my opinion
Honey Lee looking gorgeous during her performance on a traditional harp
Even Far East Movement made an appearance and performed Like a G6

So Yoo Jin in this season's hottest color
I thought the top looked really cool with random charms such as keys and crosses I didn't like this dress and I don't think she did either, she's walking all over it!
The canary yellow gown is passable but the other two can be tossed

Loving her wedges!

She killed Big Bird to make this dress...it's atrocious
2NE1 were the big winners of the night! Park Bom's black and white printed dress was my fave of the quartet, sexy and feminine2NE1 in costume for their performance
Haven't finished watching the whole show, gonna get back to that now ;)
