Taylor Swift

Sweet singer Taylor Swift exudes femininity with her pink and champagne outfits, delicate country florals and cowgirl boots. Her look is adorable, and in addition to her angelic looks and voice, is part of the reason she is a popular pop star and fashion icon. Taylor Swift rocked a 1940s-inspired belted trench coat at her MTV Video Music Awards performance, and took it off to reveal a girlish red dress.

She was a stunning young lady in red, and the spectrum of reds and pinks suits her well. She does not shy away from cranberry reds, deep pomegranates, bubble gum pinks and barely-there blushing pinks. These colors complement her underlying wardrobe of all shades of white. Swift also works greens, bright blues and the occasional lilac or black formal wear.

We could edge her out slightly with a pair of floral-looking lace heels, with a metallic polish. They would work with any floral dress, a fuchsia tank dress, or with leggings and and over-sized sweatshirt gray, belted cardigan.

Beyonce Knowles

Where Taylor Swift's style is subdued and subtle, Beyonce Knowles is downright eye-popping. A pair of lattice black heels studded with gold could easily become a major component in Beyonce's wardrobe, if we ever saw her wear anything twice. A pair of shoes which exude her personal flair could be worn with a designer gown, a sexy sheath dress, or leather leggings with a matching, belted coat.

Knowles' wardrobe color palette ranges from deep, eggplant purples to sunshine yellow, and every color in between. Similar to Swift, Knowles knows when to work a mostly white or off-white ensemble, from neckline to shoe choice. Beyonce also knows the power of red, and wore a hot red number to the VMAs.

Both super stars performed at the 2009 MTV VMA show, and both women went home with awards.
