We took a trip through the Grammys Gifting Lounge on Saturday.

We are always shocked at how much free stuff they give to celebrities, but we have to say they did not have anything as cool as Red Carpet Manicure this year!

 {every performer and presenter gets a Gibson guitar, Brooke’s holding the one they all signed}

 {so many fun/way random things including a face mister/moisturizer, skin lifter, sunnies, and an amazingly cute pink toothbrush}

 {everyone had to write what they love and then post it on the LOVE wall}

{The cutest part was the 10-YEAR-OLD DJ! Here she is posing with Ashanti}

{keep your eyes peeled for this picture in an upcoming Japanese magazine ha they wanted Brooke and I to take photos with their newest skincare product that they says tightens and lifts your face}

 The most important part of Grammys prep… chocolate filled croissants from Caffe Primo!
They literally melt in your mouth… so yummy!

We also returned to make up boutique salon BLUSHINGTON

They have hands down the best stylists that listen to what you want and make it last all.day.long. 

 Brooke was lucky enough to get a spot in the private back room, which is perfectly decorated in a peachy pink.

She asked for a glowy look with a strong brow to match her beaded cream gown. 

Our goal next time we are in L.A. is to take one of their classes!

This is what our space on the red carpet looked like before the celebs got there.
 Each news outlet has their own booth and area along the way with photographers and equipment. The bigger the outlet the further ahead you are.
 That is why Ryan Seacrest with E News was first in line!

One of the best parts of going to the Grammys was the anticipation of going to the Grammys!
We had so much fun playing dress up for a night.

XOXO B&B 

 



We are SO excited to be back in L.A. for the Grammy Awards!

We are thrilled to once again be on the red carpet and backstage for the ceremony.

Our Instagram accounts will be the best way to follow all the action (links on the right hand side of the page).

 We promise to update religously!

Hopefully Taylor Swift will tell us she likes our dresses again 🙂

 There are so many great things about this picture, but the best part is definitely the photo bomber taking a selfer! Doesn’t get better than that.

 E has a fun new camera at their interview station this year the ManiCam!
You stick your hand in and it takes video of your nails… pretty snazzy.
And now… for some great stalker pics taken today on the red carpet:

 Alexa Chung just hanging out with a claw clip in her hair and no makeup on.
Why is she not at Fashion Week?

 Chris Harrison… much smaller than anticipated in person.
I seriously hope he brings some roses to hand out to his picks for best-dressed.

And… the back of Ryan Seacrest’s head! He is such a little man!
Ryan came dressed in a stellar suit and was practicing his routine for a few hours… who knew the pros practiced?!

We cannot wait for the fun to start tomorrow… we are so excited to see the celebs and will give you a full report Sunday night at 10:00pm on KUTV Channel 2 as well as on Monday morning.

We first got to know Blake Lively in the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and then of course as Serena on Gossip Girl.

We were a little (LOT) bit nervous to interview her because about a year ago we interviewed Leighton Meester, who plays Blaire on Gossip Girl and she was not the nicest.

We also had to sign an interview deal saying that we would not ask Blake any questions about her marriage or wedding.

After signing our lives away, we thought she would be very impersonal, but we are so happy to report that Blake was super sweet and charming!

From the second we started doing mic checks, she was chatting with us like we were her best friends.

You can watch it HERE!

 We asked her if there was ever a morning she woke up and decided she just wanted to wear sweats.

She said of course she wakes up and puts on sweats and UGGS sometimes, but she feels the best when she gets dressed in something she loves.

 Then, we asked her what she is doing with all of her free time now that Gossip Girl has wrapped.

She said she is loving sleeping in most mornings past her usual 4:30am wake up call.

Then, we asked her about Utah because we found out she has a sister that lives in Park City.

Brooke asked where she likes to go when she is in Utah and she said she loves Nielsen’s Frozen Custard (which is one of our FAVORITE icecream joints in Holladay), Davanza’s Pizza (right off of Park City Mainstreet) and going tubing up at Daniel’s Summit.

At the end of the interview I told her I hoped to run into her at Nielsen’s next time she was in Utah.

How magical would it be to be BFFs with Blake?
