Red Carpet ~ Oscars Edition

credit

I have to say I was a little underwhelmed by the Red Carpet tonight!  However, I knew someone had to wear one of the Elie Saab gowns I am obsessed with.  Berenice Bejo looked amazing in the long sleeved dress, I just wish her hair style was a little fuller & not so stiff.  I almost feel the same way about Guiliana Rancic, the look is so perfectly fitted with exquisite beading, yet her hair & make up are to severe.  

I think a side bun like this for either ladies would have lightened up the looks.

What do you think?  Did you have a favorite from tonight?

Red Carpet Winners ~ SAG Edition

Right now I am in a food coma from take out, watching the Red Carpet. Nothing like a night on the couch watching gorgeous girls live the glamorous life to make you eat more candy in a fit of jealously, lol. 

I couldn't pick a favorite look seen as no one was wearing any of these. I mean I know the collection was just shown on Tuesday, but if Rachel Zoe was their stylist she would have had the gown shipped straight from the runway, right?

Stacy Keibler looks exquisite in her lace Marchesa gown, but really who would look bad with that silver fox on their arm?

Naya Rivera's gown got a little risky with the plunging neckline, very age appropriate & perfectly fit.

When it comes to Emma Stones look I am torn.  Her hair compliments her face & the top of the dress,  yet the waist & hemline seem to make the dress heavy.  What do you think?

and finally.....Emily Blunt looked radiant in a Oscar de la Renta one shoulder dress.  The color & jewelry are perfect, however I wish she had Emma Stones hair style!

Did you have a favorite from last night? 

P.S. Did anyone watch the Kardashians?  I really think Kim just fell in love with the fairy take & was jealous of her sisters so she rushed!!  So sad!

Stunning doesn't even cover it!

I can't even begin to tell you how much I love the Elie Saab Spring Couture collection.

 I am stunned by beautiful necklines, silhouettes & the intricate detailing.  There is no doubt that these gowns would make any woman feel glamorous, sexy and feminine all at once!  I can't wait to see who wears one of these options to the Oscars! 

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7

If I was Michelle William's Stylist I would be on the first flight to Paris for the Mint Option. 

Who could you see wearing Elie Saab on the Red Carpet?

and the winners are......

Can you imagine how many millions of dollars there are in jewelry at one awards show?  This is one of the random things that runs through my mind while watching TV.  Seriously security must be crazy.  

I was so excited that two of my favorite movies over the past year won Golden Globes. Michelle Williams was stunning in My Week with Marilyn & Midnight in Paris was a witty story that made me fall in love with Paris & the 1920s again.  

When it came to fashion everyone looked stunning & glamorous however I wasn't wowed by any over all look. Here are some of my favorite elements from the night.

1 / 2

Mila Kunis's make up is perfection, so simple & elegant, I just wish you couldn't see through the top of her gown.  After the Color Crush Friday Fancies I couldn't resist posting Heidi's necklace.  A beautiful statement piece, unfortunately the overall look seems out of place on the red carpet.  More St. Bart's than Golden Globes. 

1 / 2

I am obsessed with the back of Clare Danes dress.  It is so perfectly fitted adding a little excitement to a safe dress.  Charlize's headband was the clear winner in the accessory department for me.  Who wouldn't want to wear that many diamonds in your hair? 

Did you have a favorite overall look from the awards?

Oh & how handsome were the men!  Adam, Bradley & Leo all looked yummy!!

.......and the Oscar goes to.... Well she didn't win an Oscar but Helen Mirren was my best dressed pick for the Oscars.  I think she looks stunning in this Vivienne Westwood gown.  It is so elegant, slightly regal and has a youthful touch with the structured shoulders. They add a little drama which is always fun.

What do you think? oh and have you seen R.E.D? such a good movie and as always she is great!

SAG Awards

As I sit and watch the SAG Awards I can't believe how many people wore red tones.  They all looked great but I don't get how the fashion industy all know what color will be on trend.  Do they call each other up and say Spring 2011 we all must use hues of red?  I really want to know how that part of the industry works.

So I didn't see all the of the Red Carpet Coverage but my two favorites so far are:

Mila Kunis in Alexander McQueen

Sometimes Alexander McQueens gowns are too much for me, so dramatic and theatrical that I only think they would work on the runway or Lady Gaga.  However this gown is stunning.  Just the material alone would look great in almost any shape dress.  Mila looks lovely, confident and comfortable in the gown, I love her loose waves and smokey eye make up too.

My other favorite was Mariska Hargitay but I cannot find any photos online of her or who designed her dress.  She wore a classic strapless gown from what I could see in a gorgeous royal blue with a beautiful pair of aqua stud earrings.  I hope there are some pictures tomorrow so I can see the full outift.  I have to say I am a little disappointed she didn't win Best Actress in a TV Drama, SVU is one of my favorite shows and she is amazing at potraying the character. 

Well its almost 10 pm and I need to watch the Kardashians in NYC they are my fav guilty pleasure :)
