This is a very simple script…. :)  Please use it as a framework for you to create something better to include input parameters if you want etc..

Script Below… just change the variables! :)

function stopvm($azurecloud,$vmname)
{
    if ($vmname -eq $null)
    {
        Get-AzureVM -ServiceName $azurecloud |Foreach-object {Stop-AzureVM -ServiceName $_.ServiceName -Name $_.Name -Force}
    }
    else
    {
        Stop-AzureVM -ServiceName $azurecloud -Name $vmname
    }
}
function startvm($azurecloud,$vmname)
{
    if ($vmname -eq $null)
    {
        Get-AzureVM -ServiceName $azurecloud |Foreach-object {Start-AzureVM -ServiceName $_.ServiceName -Name $_.Name -Force}
    }
