2008 All Star Game - New Orleans

Martini Toast to New Orleans!

Hello FASHIONISTAS....let's not fool ourselves, we can care less about the actual All Star Game and who won, what we care most about is the styles that were on display during this week. Fashion Martini is dedicating this week's blog post to All Star Weekend! Below are four of the hottest events that took place this past weekend.

Please take a moment and vote on your choice using the poll provided to the right ->



2008 NBA All-Star in New Orleans Boost Mobiles Zo and Magic 8-Ball Challenge Celebrity Pool Tournament at the Sugar Mill February 14, 2008 in New Orleans, Louisiana.


Gabrielle Union attends 2008 NBA All-Star in New Orleans - Zo & Magic's 8-Ball Challenge


Gabrielle Union showing love to her Louis Vuitton bag. We must admit, this bag is HOT!


Kim Kardashian looking beautiful as always. You can depend on Kim to rock a very stunning outfit at every event she attends.

Kim runs a trendy boutique named DASH with her sisters Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian. If you're ever in Calabasas CA, you should stop by and shop. They carry designer lines such as Alice & Olivia, Catherine Malendrino, Chloe, Christian Audigier, Development, and See By Chloe just to name a few.




Sisters, Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian.


We love the clutch bag Eva Longoria is rocking below. She displays here huge collection of clutch purses in InStyle magazine this month. You can also get a sneak peak at her closet and shoe collection!


MTV host, LaLa in an animal print dress. All we can say is WOW...not too many people can get away with this dress but she rocks it with perfection.


Vivica Fox, rocking an animal print hat. We love this hat, very chic! As you can see, Animal Print is here to stay and can be worn across any season.


Look who we spotted having the GOOD time! "Lean with it...rock with it" Hey, where did she lay her leather jacket? She must have forgotten that she is in New Orleans (we're only kidding).






Vitaminwater Sponsors The Big Easy Billiards Bash and Afterparty with Shaquille O'Neal and Reggie Bush on February 15, 2008 in New Orleans, Louisiana.



Kim Kardashian stood proud while supporting her man, NFL player Reggie Bush of the New Orleans Saints, as he auctioned items for charity. We are definitely feeling the white crisp shirt look under the dark brown leather jacket. The GOLD accents make the jacket really POP.


Women's Billiards Champ Jeanette Lee pose during the event. Fashion Martini would have done this outfit a little different than she does. We recommend the snake motiff blouse with a pair of grey straight leg jeans with over the knee black boots. Grey jeans are very chic!


Vivica Fox struts her stuff on the red carpet in Baby Phat.


Jordan Brand House of 23 event, celebrating the launch of the Air Jordan 23 during All-Star Weekend on February 15, 2008 in New Orleans.



Record Producer Jimmy Jam's wife, Lisa, on the red carpet at the Jordan event. She is rocking one of the recent Spring 2008 Trends identified by Fashion Martini - known as Cold Shoulder Dress. Her dress color is absolutely stunning.


Rosci of BET’s 106 & Park, on the red carpet at the Jordan event. She is also rocking a recent identified Spring 2008 trend - Gentle Ruffles! We love her blouse.


MTV Host, LaLa Vasquez, on the red carpet at the Jordan event. Stripes are proving to be a staple closet piece.


Actress Gabrielle Union on the red carpet at the Jordan event. She is great at turning basic pieces into her own edgy style. We love how she breaks up the brown leather jacket and boots with a black purse. The need to be matchy-matchy is long gone.


2008 NBA All-Star in New Orleans - Doublemint Gum Presents the 2nd Annual Jay-Z and LeBron James Two Kings Dinner and Afterparty on February 16, 2008 in New Orleans, LA.


Beyonce Knowles and Gabrielle Union attends the event, both wearing black dresses. Beyonce spices up her casual dress with stunning shoes!

Gabrielle Union keeps it simple with all black. Again, note the edgy vibe with her choice of boots to complement the black dress.


Behind every well dressed woman should be a well dressed man! We personally like the style of this couple, NBA player Chris Paul and his guest.

His outfit is delightfully pulled together with the mix-match patterns (strip shirt and plaid tie). Good Job Chris Paul or the woman behind your style!


FASHIONISTAS, please make sure your better half steps in style as well. CHEERS!
