Emmys® 70th anniversary a party of surprises, love, and beauty. The evening starts with the glamorous red carpet and concludes with the Governors Ball. The celebrities bring out the best in traditional red carpet fashion, talent, and entertainment.

Emmys 70th Party Red Carpet 

The Emmys Red Carpet brought a great selection of fashion and personal style. The colors of the evening include blush, rose gold, green, and red. There was a lot of tulle, taffeta, pleats, and prints. The seasonal mix was strong with summer and fall styling and fashion. The fashion is more formal with some daring moments. 

Emmys 70th Party Red Carpet Formal 

The red carpet is one time to get the glam out and put together a perfect look. There were so many who took the traditional formal look. A few that caught our eye include:

Kristen Bell is wearing Laura Taylor & Ryan Holliday-Stevens. It is straight neckline and sleeves sheer sleek modern and edgy. The styling, Nicole Chavez, includes Forever Mark jewels, a simple sweepback for the hair done by Christine Symond, and makeup Amyoresman with a nude sheer gloss.

Millie Bobby Brown is wearing Calvin Klien. This fun pink print dress is just above the ankle showing off her soft pink pointed kitty cat heels. It is off the shoulder with little bows. She accentuated with gold bracelets and rings, and a simple silver necklace.

Sandra Oh is wearing Ralph & Russo plunging neckline with great texture and glitzy with garnet-colored stones along the plunging neckline, waist and sleeves, hair down, and diamonds on her wrist.

Heidi Klum brings all the stops in Zac Posen pastel peach strapless dress. This is a wonderful gown for her perfect figure. She accessories with a choker necklace from Lorraine Schwartz.  Her glam evening tip is to lay down in the car to keep your dress from wrinkling. 

Emmys 70th Party Red Carpet Personal Style Moments

Red carpets are always a wonderful time to share your personal style. There are many who take the time to present personal messages, stories, and style. It brings fun and adventure to the red carpet. A few with some personal styling moments:

  • Tracee Ellis Ross wearing a hot pink voluminous Valentino haute couture. The voluminous fuchsia taffeta looked like a large fluffy floating cloud. A lot of fun. Her eyeshadow is orange with blurred lipstick (a popular trend on the red carpet). Her hair is slicked back curls.
  • Leslie Jones rocked the red carpet with a Christian Siriano. This colorful pantsuit is a great personal look. Every time she moves the colors change on the pantsuit. The jacket has just one button for a nice peek-a-boo. Her clutch is from Judith Leiber and jewelry Jordan Alexander. Keeping with the fun personal style she is wearing her hair in a modified spiked mohawk. Her eye makeup a smokey eye with a light-toned lip.    

  • Tiffany Haddish brings a personal message to the red carpet wearing a custom gown by designer Prabal Gurung. This dress is an inspiration from the Eritrean flag, the country in northeastern Africa, her father’s home country. The dress is voluminous and fun to twirl around. This dress fits her personality of love and happiness. She is wearing Tattoo earrings with white diamonds by Lorraine Schwartz. 
  • Nnedi Okorafor, Game of Thornes creator, wears art on the red carpet with a hand-painted by V Kottavei Richmond and the dress designer Therez Fleetwood. 
  • Deon Cole continues his tuxedos with bold patterns. This tux by Gucci is in wild patterns. He keeps the traditional bow tie and white pleated wingtip tuxedo shirt. 
  • RuPaul Charles loves the pink suits for the Creative Arts red carpets. 2016 he graced the red carpet in a hot pink polka-dot suit. This year is a solid hot pink suit (a trend color for the red carpet). The Emmys Primetime he wears a white double-breasted suit. He has a classic button-up shirt, pop of color with Calvin’s pointy-toe, tangerine orange Western boots with a Cuban heel. He completes the sex appeal (accessories) with a black clutch and cocktail ring. All suits designed by Calvin Klein. He always states, If you don’t love yourself, how in the hell are you gonna love somebody else?”  He lives this every day in his personal style.

Chromat The Clothing Fits the Body

Chromat The Clothing Fits the Body

Chromat, creative designer Becca McCharen-Tran, brings her architecture and urban design to the New York Fashion Week (NYFW) runway. She transforms fashion from body fitting the body to the clothing fitting the body.

Chromat The Brand

This runway is not the expected evening gowns or ready-to-wear. It is a swimwear that is fitted and designed for any woman to fill comfortable without the large baggie shirt or bulky swim cover-up.

Tran brings Chromat to all women with her strong sense of structure, lines, and design bring a design that is flattering, sexy, and comfortable for anyone to wear.

Chromat The Runway

This runway inspiration is to reimagine the whole idea of throwing a ginormous shirt over a swimsuit while at the pool, peach or boating because of embarrassment. She believes every woman should feel her beauty and pride in swimwear.  This runway accomplishes and demonstrates this.

The swimwear line started in 2010 brings architecture, fashion, innovative design, cutting-edge, the body’s performance encouraging empowerment from the garments for all bodies. The runway provides a strong diversity representing all women.

This runway does not have the Cheetos or snacks nor are they carrying pool accessories. They come down the runway just as if they have jumped out of the pool and are heading for their towels.

The swimwear is designed for those who love two piece swimsuits, one piece that even provides more coverage if you are in a cooler climate, but love to play in the water. It is a great collection full of color and print with a great use of mesh for breathability and comfort. The cover-ups are beautiful with some sex appeal with them.

Chromat Front Row

Attending the fashion show includes Whoopi Goldberg and Miss J. Alexander, just from his own runway walk for Laurence & Chico. He demonstrated just how it is done.  

This is a fun collection for every woman to be sexy, beautiful, and confident. Chromat is your fashion go to for all your water fun.

Stephanie Nauli ~ Look in The Mirror

Stephanie Nauli ~ Look in The Mirror

Stephanie Nauli, philanthropist, musician, and model, will be attending E-Feminista Freedom Tour by Crowned for Success in New York city. She brings with her talents, service, and inspiration to this event. Nauli motto is, “look in the mirror and know you can be anything.” Get a little insight to this amazing woman.

What is the one thing you do to start each day to be successful?

I thank God for all the opportunities at hand and read my Holy Bible devotionals to get my mind and heart right for the course of the day.

As a young child what was the one thing you wanted to be as an adult?

A star.

Being a single mother what is the one tip to scheduling and management of a busy life you use? 


Grant Cardone’s 10X Success Planner.

Thank you for your service in the military. How has being a member of the military benefited your current career in entertainment?

Being that I was the 1st Armored Division’s National Anthem Singer at Fort Bliss, Texas, with my face on a training site banner, I would say it was an honorable experience that better prepared me for the future.

Stephaie Nauli E-Feminista 4Chion Lifestyle
Key to your life is philanthropy what is the one area that you see we can get motivated to participate?

We can’t put full responsibility on the White House. They are doing their part as our nation’s leaders. But the people are the hands and feet of the changes we wish to see.

Health is wealth and doing everything we can to sustain and improve the health of our environment ensures that we ourselves can live healthier and more profitable lives, by saving money on medical bills and capitalizing on athletic endeavors, to name a few. Money does not flow without us and does not flow as productively if we are not at our optimal state of health. Our well-being is reflected by what we consume, and this includes the kind of air we breathe.

The Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation has made such a lasting impact in my native country, Indonesia, who now have been all about going green, improving the overall health of their economy, and many others, to include the U.S. Definitely, support their work and progress.

You focus on empowering people to be the best most positive life. How did you gain 1 insight or tool for your book?

If you can dream it, you can achieve it. If you can see it, you can believe it. Before anything manifests into something, it begins with an idea. That idea requires a plan of action if you want to make it happen. That is why I included a visual planning exercise in the Master Life Assessment Tool in the back of my Amazon bestseller “Master Life: 7 Powers to Living At Your Highest Potential.

This way your dream goes from concept to reachable opportunity.

Stephaie Nauli E-Feminista 4Chion Lifestyle
Stephanie Nauli
E-Feminista is about creating a “laptop lifestyle” for women. How do you interpret that in your daily living? 

I am a Regional Vice President of Crowned for Success, LLC, a sisterhood of entrepreneurial women and online business owners who contribute a portion of our proceeds against domestic violence and children’s education. We are all about the remote living lifestyle because we as women of ambition, have lots we are passionate about doing that can’t all be done in a cubicle. As an influencer and marketer, my work is done 80% on my phone, 10% on a laptop or computer, and 10% in a recording studio or film set. This allows me to travel where I want, when I want, and with who, doing what I love.

What is the one moment in your life that you felt that you had made around the corner?

When I started my own production and marketing company, Millennial Entertainment, LLC, that was the decision to create my own opportunities instead of waiting in line.

Your Motto is “Look in the mirror and know you can be anything…” Do you feel you have achieved that to this time in life?

Absolutely, I always will be, because I believe in having a growth-mindset and continually learning things that better myself, my life, my performance, and my business. Every time I reach a goal, I will always want to take it to the next level. That’s just me. Complacency is a dangerous place to be.

One beauty tip you use to be the best you possible.

Staying hydrated prevents wrinkles and keeps the skin supple, and lips plush, with the help of a natural color lip enhancer by IT Cosmetics, Je Ne Sais Quoi nourishing lipstick. It’s my everyday lip magic.


What are your current and upcoming projects for film, modeling, or entertainment?

I have an action/drama screenplay in development, it’s almost like Mr. & Mrs. Smith meets the Goodfellas, and there are several distribution opportunities for that as well as for brands and investors. I’ve been blessed to receive brand ambassador opportunities that I’m considering, in athletic gear and makeup. I also landed a supporting role in a military drama feature film, Charlie Med, in pre-production, and I’m releasing my first EP on my 27th birthday, September 9th, that includes the cinematic pop-orchestra song, “You Can Be”, on all radio streams.

NYC Taking on Midtown Manhattan ~ Travel

NYC Taking on Midtown Manhattan ~ Travel

Taking on Midtown Manhattan NYC  is a wonderful whirlwind of fun explorations. The time here is brief but full of beautiful fashion, food, and fun.

Exploring Midtown NYC

Empire State Building NYC Vacation Trip 4Chion Lifestyle Blog
Empire State Building

Empire State Building NYC

The building that I had seen in films comes to life today. Entering the lobby I see the beauty of the original interior.  This lobby is a historic landmark by the Landmarks Preservation Commission. The lobby’s recent restoration took 18 months to complete. It is an art deco design resembling the original design. The interior is marble, 24-karat gold and aluminum leaf with a large clock, gears, regional map, and a replication of the Empire State Building. There is a rush of people following through the lobby please stop a moment to look around at the details.

Moving through the process to get to the 86th floor you explore the history, the details about the building’s sustainability, and the 80th floor a Dare to Dream exhibit. This is a great experience. Walking the last few flights of stairs to the 86th floor was a lot of fun.

Reaching the 86th floor I am breathless, from climbing the stairs and looking over NYC. It is crowded and people are speaking many languages.

It is amazing to finally be here and see the vastness of the land, water, and buildings. You can see the city below and really don’t hear the commotion. The beauty above is amazing as you look up to see the rest of the building and the blue sky with clouds. It is an experience to not miss while in Midtown NYC.

Midtown NYC

"<yoastmark

Midtown is the history, fashion, and food of NYC. It is such a wonderful place to explore. The top tourist attraction is within walking distance. The LOVE statue is one of many found around the world. This was first created for print by Robert Indiana.

The love of community is found as I stroll the streets. The beautiful churches, Central Park, and shopping bring NYC home. The families pushing their strollers, skateboarders, and tourist head to Central Park. The park has statues, the  Great Lawn (the world-famous lawn), and vendors. It is a wonderful place in the center of town.

There is so much in this area from Radio City Hall, Rockefeller Center, and fashion. It is like a fashion runway down Madison Ave. You find the top fashion designer shops with exceptional windows displaying the latest fashion. I venture in an Uber through Time Square. It is fun seeing the hustle and bustle that is Time Square from the car.

Afterwards exploring Midtown it is time for fashion. Uber takes me to FDC Young Designer Fashion show at The Paul Hotel. This is a quaint fashion event.

The evening concludes watching the full moon rise over the high rises. It is a wonderful experience to be on the rooftop of the hotel and just be still for 20 minutes. It is a perfect trip.

Food NYC

Wild Ginger NYC

Wild Ginger NYC

This quaint Asian Fusion restaurant is next door to my hotel, Pod 51, in Midtown New York. This is the first food stop in Manhattan. Thankful for this find after being delayed at the airport. The restaurant is full of large parties enjoying an order your favorite roll and share mine. I can hear them discussing what they like about each other’s choices. That is a fun way to enjoy a menu.  The decor is transforming, and fitting for the theme. The menu is filled with a variety of traditional Asian and fusion dishes like Singapore thin rice noodles. Enjoyed steamed veggie dumplings, salmon roll, and mermaid roll. The sauce on the plate is sweet, sour, and a little heat. The food is fresh and elegant.

Milk Bar NYC

MIlk Bar NYC Road Trip 4Chion Lifestyle 1
Milk Bar NYC

I am excited to try crack pie and coffee for breakfast. This is a planned find in NYC. Watching Chef’s Table on Netflix. I knew I needed to try Milk Bar. This is Christine Tosi’s bakery and is part of the Manhattan-based Momofuku restaurant.

This is my first stop in the morning. The little shop has great cookies, cakes, pies, and bagel bombs. I order an iced coffee, bagel bomb with spinach, and crack pie. The bagel bomb warm and filled with spinach and cheese. It is a nice bite for the start of touring NYC.

I save the crack pie for a little later, but it is delicious. The filling is something like a custard, but buttery. The oat crust is light and flaky. This is a must stop and see.

Pizza NYC Vacation Trip 4Chion Lifestyle Blog
Pizza NYC

$1 Pizza NYC

The little find during the day is Market Pizza. It is a small little shop off 6th ave. It is $2.99 for two slices of pizza and soda. This is a great place for a traditional New York pizza. It is good, friendly, and always ready. They have a variety of pizzas. There is a small communal area to sit and eat your pizza before heading back on my NYC adventure. Always fun to explore these great places.

Pescatore NYC

Pescatore NYC Road Trip 4Chion Lifestyle
Pescatore NYC

Walking Midtown after a day of exploring and the fashion event I am overwhelmed with the choices near the hotel. The restaurants’ selection vast and enticing aromas. This is the last stop for food in New York City. The dilemma is decided as rain begins to fall. I wonder into Pescatore. It is a traditional setting with the seasonal tulips on each table. My waiter is Bryan Royas. He is very informative about the menu and attentive.

It is a really amazing experience to see spaghetti Carbonaro prepared tableside. This dish is pancetta, onions, pecorino cheese & egg mixed in a Parmigiano wheel. The family sitting near me order this dish. There is something about seeing the food prepared tableside. The smells, sounds, and visual bring anticipation.

I enjoy pasta ripiena, warm bread, with Bousquet Mendoza Argentina Malbec, and dessert. The staff that brings me zeppoles with fruit dipped in brandy. The ripiena is homemade pasta sheet stuffed with fresh spinach, ricotta, topped with tomato sauce and crispy parmigiana.

The homemade pasta is delectable and the tomato sauce fresh. The dessert is light and sweet the vanilla, chocolate, and raspberry sauces. The raspberry sauce is my favorite brings a little tart to the sweet. The fruit with the brandy is scrumptious.

Loved the 48 hours in Midtown and look forward to returning. It is a wonderful exploration. What are your favorite places in Midtown? Post your answer and photo #4ChionStyle here.

The folds, cuts, and shapes in the collection take you back to many millinery designs. The full-length pants create folds all the way down the legs adding a nice contemporary pleating to menswear. The best contemporary look for the runway is a white cotton top with the center front cut out. This cut out continues with the runway collection of modernization and shapes. The back of the shirt falls nicely down the back of the pants, with the sleeves cut in two with the bottom half bunched up to the elbows. The added texture is from the black buttons placed on the black trim. The shirt is with a pair of a tuxedo short with straps connected to the mid-calf boots.

Lord Burchen summer fashion for men takes men to a modern contemporary summer fashion.

The Moxy Hotel welcomed the community to experience this new boutique hotel. Marriott working with 27/7 Hotels has created a hotel with a modern-day experience. The evening filled with an Italian theme event from food to fashion.

The lobby filled with a warm home-style setting. Check-in is actually the bar. Take a moment to look up at the ceiling as you wait for the drink you ordered. This ceiling came from a fence found in Kansas City. Upon receiving your drink you can find many locations to enjoy your drink.

The lobby filled with comfortable areas to enjoy a quiet moment, watch the guest check in on Instagram on a large screen, enjoy the workspace, write on the giant chalkboard, enjoy Pac-Man or other video games, or play a board game or two. Each area filled with great motivational thoughts and art. The hotel set for the traveler to enjoy a more independent experience.

The rooms are keyless and their self-service food areas. The furnishing is a collaboration with Marriott and Ikea. The furnishing is simple and comfortable. There is a nice sitting area, bed, work desk, and television. This design is a more contemporary feel and set to work with the Millennial traveler. The evening provided a great opportunity to experience the elevator that is set as a photo booth for selfies, community, music, art, and fashion.

The evening feature VH1 Save the Music. An organization that provides funding for continued music education and opportunities for musicians. Chris G Band performed poolside while guest enjoyed the Italian themed food. The community enjoyed the amenities and visiting with each other during the evening.

The evening ended with a great fashion show put together by Phoenix Fashion Week. Frank James, stylist team lead, said the styling for the show was a 70 and 80s inspired with a tribute honor to Prince. Frank has worked with Phoenix Fashion Week for four years. He made the adjustment to fashion after putting together fashion shows in high school and college. He has produced, trained models, and taught the catwalk. The models were well casted and came with various backgrounds.

Ali Aungst, a model with Ford Robert Black Agency, started with Phoenix Fashion Week’s boot camp last year. She has walked in last years October show. Her one piece of advice is to be true to your personal style. Her favorite colors to wear are black and grey. She is looking forward to the upcoming year as a model.
