The MTV Video Music Awards honor the best and brightest of the music industry and are always an amazing show for lovers of fun fashion. But this year, we saw a turn for monochromatic (and dare we say, more mature!) looks from the stars on the red carpet. Rihanna stunned in a gorgeous white open-back gown and her new short pixie cut, Taylor Swift (though we thought she would go for all red) also opted for an all-white J. Mendel silk crepe pantsuit, Miley Cyrus showed off her new short platinum ‘do with a long black gown from Emilio Pucci, and P!nk chose a floor-length Stella McCartney silver gown. Click through the photos below to see what everyone was wearing!

Michelle Obama’s Convention Speech Dress: Where and When To Buy It

Sep 6, 2012 @ 5:45 pm

When First Lady Michelle Obama hit the stage Monday night to give her first speech at the 2012 Democratic National Convention, the Internet lit up with compliments and applause over her dress. The pink-and-gold frock was a custom creation by Detriot-based designer Tracy Reese. Since then, people have been clamoring to get their hands on their own version of the dress. And soon they’ll be able to! “It was something that we are planning for later; we are trying to rush it through the cycle so more people can get their hands on it sooner,” Reese said on the Today show this morning. The price tag? Under $500, or “affordable for some,” as the designer put it. We’d love to get our hands on one! Tell us in the comments: Would you wear the First Lady’s dress?

Bill Clinton’s 2012 Democratic National Convention Speech: Hillary Watches In Support!

Sep 6, 2012 @ 5:19 pm

Well, this is just too cute! Last night, former president Bill Clinton gave his speech at the Democratic National Convention, and doting wife (and our Secretary of State, of course!) Hillary Clinton caught up a little later in the night by watching a replay from halfway around the world in Southeast Asia. This adorable sign of support and affection got us thinking about famous couples who support each other in their endeavors. Brooklyn Decker has been a staple this week at the US Open Tennis Championships while husband Andy Roddick played his heart out in his final games before retirement. And we’re still thinking about how Jay-Z watched in awe on the sidelines as Beyoncé rubbed her baby bump on stage at last year’s MTV VMAs. We just love all these couples!

The hours are counting down and we can hardly wait until MTV‘s yearly red carpet extravaganza begins! The Video Music Awards start tonight at 8 p.m. EDT, with the red carpet coverage beginning at 7 p.m. EDT.

Tune in tonight and check back here on InStyle.com while you watch for all the real-time red carpet coverage you can handle!
