The Emmys

I love awards season, and what a great way to start it off than with the Emmys. I love to see what the stars are going to wear and whether they deserve that best dressed gold statue or not. This year there were a lot of great dresses, some not so great dresses and a lot of inbetweeners.  So lets get down to business, we can start with the best dressed of the night.

Leslie Mann -

My number one pick of the night would be Leslie Mann, wearing a Naeem Khan dress. I love everything about this dress. First, who doesn’t love a dress with pockets? Second, I love the detailed pattern in cream on the top half of the dress; I also love the orange with a splash of turquoise jewelry.

Hayden Panettiere -

Wearing Marchesa. She looks like an Indian queen. I love the aqua-blue draped over the gold dress. She kept the accessories simple witch is great because the dress itself makes all the statement you want to make.

Jessica Pare -

Jessica wearing a white Jason Wu dress. This dress is simple but elegant. She looks like a Greek goddess. Just enough color with the red lip and the green ring.

January Jones -

January in Zac Posen. She never fails impress at award shows. Zac Posen always does an amazing job at creating elegant dresses with just the right amount of edginess to them. His dresses are a piece of artwork in and of themselves. I love the structure of this dress. It’s a modern day twist of a southern bell.

Zoey DeChannel

Zoey wearing a Reem Acra light-blue dress. This dress was pure perfection. Love the color, love the deep sweet heart neck line and love the flow. This picture does not give the dress the respect it deserves. There was so much detail on the skirt and it moved so well on the red carpet.

Emily VanCamp

Emily wearing J. Mandel. This grey dress is AMAZING! I love the chiffon and how it gathers at the hips up into the top of the dress and over the shoulders.

Julia Louise Dreyfus

Julia in Christian Siriano. I love the maroon dress with the blue earrings. The draping of the sleeves in front and back topped off at the top of the shoulder with a knot is a great touch.

Allison Williams

Allison wearing Oscar de la Renta. This dress is also one of my top favorites. The emerald green color was a great choice also I’m in love the mini skirt at the waist and the  structured neckline is just fabulous.

Michelle Dockery

Michelle wearing Louis Vutton. I love the color and material of this dress. She didn’t stray too far from her character as Lady Mary Crawley ready to have dinner with the family.

Worst Dressed

I had this game for the computer when I was younger called “Barbie Fashion Designer.” For those of you who have never heard of it, you are able to design and print out an outfit for your Barbie. Most of the outfits you could make were pretty stylish, but then there were the times that the dresses you would create were not the most stylish… well they were just down right ugly, and let’s just say these next two dresses are pretty similar to what the ugly dresses would look like topped off with hideous shoes that they probably purchased from Charlotte Russe that were buy one get one 50% off.

Phoebe Price and Emilia Clarke

Lucy Lue

Lucy looks like she’s ready to go off and fight war, or better yet ready to fight crime with the rest of her crew from Charlie’s Angels.

Christine Baranski

This dress would have been good for someone who is 20. For someone her age (60), this dress was not ok. It was too short and too gold.

Martha Plimton

Everything about this dress is terrible. It looks like poorly crafted lingerie that has way too much material.

Kristin Wigg

She looks like she is wearing a night gown.

These ladies decided to wear their bed sheets

This was the worst of the night. 

Ashley Judd. This dress is just awful. It looks so cheap and it's poorly tailored. 

Theses ladies wanted looked like a glow stick at a rave.

The men of the Night

It’s pretty hard to look bad as a man.

John Cryer -

I like the gray suit coat 

Jessie Pinkman -

I like the two-toned black.  And come on, who doesn’t love a man in a bow-tie?

Ricky Gervais -

I like the all black, but the pants could be tailored just a bit more.  And I hate the shoes. Do they serve some kind of orthopedic function?

I do not know this gentlemen’s name but we can all come to the same conclusion that he’s pretty attractive and his suit is flawless.

Jessie Tyler Ferguson -

Lets just say, gay men know how to dress!

Kevin Costner -

Kevin could do no wrong in my eyes. I'm in love with him!

He just looks so cool. I Love the 3 piece suit. His wife on the other hand, not so cool .

Andy Cohen -

He really spiced it up by wearing that blue tuxedo shirt.

Seth McFarland - 

I am really diggin’ on the white jacket.

The undecided… you tell me! 

The MTV Music Video Awards

The VMA’s are an awesomely bad time for fashion. Just because it’s the MTV music video awards, that doesn’t give you a pass to wear something that looks like it came straight out of the Matrix. There’s a differences between trying to look edgy and looking like you came from the movie “Blade.” But, in a sea of leather, black and skintight jumpsuits there were a few gems.

But lets start with the worst of the worst:

Niki Minaj - I hate to say this because I love every song she comes out with but lets face it she always looks terrible. I mean it’s not the worst thing she has ever worn but I don’t like it.

Jessica Szohr - I couldn’t tell if she was trying to channel her character in “Gossip Girl”, trying to relive the days when she had somewhat of a career, or if she came from a dance class. And that headband?! There are no words

Frank Ocean - I don’t know who he is but he’s obviously at the VMA’s… so that means he has money to hire himself a decent stylist to know that polka dots and plaid never work together!

The Best Fashion of the Night:

Zoe Saldana - The whole outfit was appropriate for the show. The dress was just the right length and the shoes gave it the edgy feel. Nicely done

The Fab Five ( U.S Girls Gymnastic Team) -They did a great job of dressing up but still looking their age. The only complaint I have (and I hate to say it because she was my favorite to watch) Aly Raisman’s dress was a little on the short side and a bit too baggy. Other then that, they win gold again!

Emma Watson - I would have to say Emma’s outfit is by far my favorite look of the night. I don’t know what spell she performed to get this dress, but fabulous job.  I love the color blocking on the top and the pattern on the bottom, also love the shoes. The only thing she could have done without was the homeless Spanish bullfighter on her arm.

One Direction - Boy Bands are Back! They’ve got that “One Thing.” Style! I don’t know if it’s because they are from Great Brittan, but they always look so stylish. I have a crush on theses boys.

The Wanted - They are another British boy band, which explains why they look so sharp. I love the suits, but hate the super deep V-neck (lets hope there’s no wardrobe malfunction).

F.U.N. - I have loved these guys since, like, forever!! Way back when Nate was the Format. But, he has just the right amount of “Newisness” going on. He is the modern day Jack Kelly. I love Andrews’s sunglasses, tow-toned denim jacket and his maroon pants. And Jack… personally I don’t care for men in white pants but he’s Jack, he can get away with it. For some odd reason he reminds me of Bobby from “Bobby’s World” with that red hat.

Psy- He’s on here because I’m kinda obsessed with his song on youtube. I’m just gonna leave it at Korean Fashion.  For a good laugh check out his song on your tube. “Gangnam Style”

The Ladies in White (Taylor Swift, Rihanna, The Saturdays) - All these ladies hit the nail on the head! They all look great!

And, just a thought before I sign off, I didn’t know what category to put these people in because I neither loved it nor hated it… "there was nothing there... it's just void"

 I’m like 98.9% sure that Pink and Mily Cyrus got ready together. It was like twin spirit day at school, but at the VMA’s
