While we’ve already discussed how we felt about the performances at last night’s Grammy Awards, we haven’t gotten into the red carpet fashion — not that there weren’t plenty of conversation starters. But we’re not here to judge (at least in most cases!). After the jump, instead of critiquing the celebrities’ ensembles — or in Lady Gaga’s case, strange transportation choice — we’ve decided to play a little sartorial association game instead. Be sure to let us know in the comments what each outfit made you think of first.
