The Grammy's 2014

This past weekend the biggest night in music was among us, the Grammys! I love awards season because of the outfits the celebrities wear and seeing how beautiful and stylish some of them dress on the red carpet, and of course some of the odd choices some may wear as well. I'd like to share some of my favourites for the evening. 

One of my favourite artists, Alicia Keys wearing this beautiful wide-cut cobalt colour dress that goes perfectly with her skin complexion. It's fitted, simple, but still sexy. 


I thought this Joanna Johansson dress looked absolutely stunning on Pink! The colour, the fit, the design, everything looked perfect.

Ariana Grande looked adorable in this floral Dolce & Gabbana dress. It was definitely age appropriate and she wore the right heels and the had the right hairstyle to match perfectly.

Model Christine Teigen (John Legend's wife) looked amazing in this dress. Not everyone can pull of a sequinned dress like this, but I think she sure did, from head to toe. 


One of the most questionable outfits for the night was one of my favourite trendy and stylish male celebrities, Pharrel Williams. Not really sure the look he was going for that night, but he turned heads at the awards show with his "Arby's" looking hat and even got a tweet from Arby's asking for their hat back. 



Until next time!

Hello everyone and welcome to my Blog!

My name is Alyssa and I am 22 years old. I live in Brampton, Ontario and I am a student currently studying Advertising and Marketing Communications at Sheridan College and I am in my second year. Apart from being a student, I am an athlete and play for Sheridan's women varsity soccer team and proud to be representing them. Soccer has always been a great passion of mine from the time I started playing, which was 4 years old. It's something I definitely can't see myself not being involved in because it makes me who I am today. I've got to travel different parts of the world with soccer such as Brazil, Chile, Turks & Caicos, across Canada and different parts of the U.S., which always kept me interested in travelling more and different parts of the world. For the soccer junkies out there, my favourite club team is FC Barcelona and my favourite country team is Brazil.

When I was younger I used to be a tomboy and only liked to wear what would make me comfortable. As I've gotten older, I suddenly developed a passion for fashion and love and idolize the different types of fashion and brands. I like to explore and try different styles and making myself look nice and wearing the make-up, doing my hair and nails. Shopping is definitely a hobby that I can do almost everyday, either buying a new pair of pants, or a new pair of shoes, or make-up. If I'm bored and don't have any work to do or have soccer, you can usually catch me at the mall, either walking around, window-shopping and seeing whats in stores and/or purchasing products. I don't necessarily have a specific style, but I do go for more of an "urban" look. I like my sneakers, like Jordans or Converse, but I do also like my fashionable boots as well. When I go out on the town, that's where my stilletos come out and it's probably where I am at my most girly stage.

So now that I've said a little bit about me and my interests and passions, you can see where I got the name of my blog from "Stilletos to Cleats" and will have a better idea of the type of things I will be posting.

Hope you enjoy my page!
