65th emmy fashion 2013

the good (well, goodish) 

kiernan shipka in delpozo - adorbs

zosia mamet in honor

ok, i don't love the black bra thingy but still interesting & age appropriate.

(please ladies in your 20s & early 30s stop wearing the heavy duchess satin looking dresses - you aren't 70!)

rose byrne in calvin klein collection

laura dern in naeem khan 

taylor schilling in thakoon - super chic

julianna marguiles in reed krakoff

carla gugino in george chakra

great color on her & her body is bangin'

robin wright in ralph lauren

jessica pare in oscar de la renta

(i know a lot of people didn't like this but there is something about it that i kind of dig)

sarah paulson in carolina herrera 

gia coppola in zac posen with zac posen

i have to say, i don't love any of these dresses....but, i think they all look great. 

there weren't a lot of great things on the red carpet tonight but these ladies stood out (in a good way)

on the fence

kate mara in j. mendel

i like parts of it - i just think it makes her look very broad across her soldiers

kristen connolly in nicholas oakwell

again, i want to like it & i think i kinda do - i think it looks super heavy so the fit is a bit off?

the bad 

(among a lot of bad these really stood out)

julianne hough in jenny packham

just no. the pouch, the waaaaaay off the shoulder look, the sheer - i'm here to DANCE bottom, the badly covered tan lines.  yikes.

lena dunham in prada.

yeah, no. no, no, no.

heidi klum in versace.

wow. just no.

claire danes in armani privé

okay, i actually really like this dress BUT um, how to say this delicately? very sad boobies.

and no on the hair.

golden globes 2011

the good:

tilda swinton in jil sander

julianne moore in lanvin

leighton meester in burberry

angelina jolie in versace

scarlet johansson in elie saab 

claire danes in calvin klein collection

helen mirren

kyra sedgwick in emilio pucci with husband kevin bacon

catherine zeta jones in monique lhullier

helena bonham carter in vivienne westwood

ryan gosling.....so damn hot!

alex pettyfer

biggest disappointment of the night:

michelle williams in valentino

this is my biggest criticism of the night - everyone fell into 3 categories: 

1. part of the wedding party.

2. that girl. the one who is all boobs and sheer panels.

3. so boring....nude & peach & all those shades....not that great on the red carpet. 

it's kinda sad that all these young girls stuff themselves into these gowns that, although they may be beautiful, are just so inappropriate and say absolutely NOTHING about them. most of their dresses looked like something an older woman would wear. for instance, i thought catherine zeta jones looked lovely and appropriate. whether you love or hate my choices at least they are all true to themselves. i mean, i didn't love julianne moore's dress but it's so her and she looks smashing in it & the color is just so brilliant. and helena bonham carter, bless her, doesn't deviate from what she likes no matter what anybody says. i love that... and LE SIGH i love that tilda wore the jil sanders!  i'm sure it will be panned by those horrible fashion police shows but she looked flawless and you know what? she looked like someone you would want to sit next to at dinner and have a nice chat-up!  i'd rather someone wear a dress or look i didn't love but was true to their own style.  everyone just looked so bland and overdone.

my biggest disappointment was michelle williams because i usually love what she wears. i just think the fit of the dress ON TOP of the look of the dress just isn't doing her any favors.
