Red Carpet Review: SAG Awards 2015

Posted by Unknown with No comments
The red carpet review has returned! Unfortunately I missed the Golden Globes but yesterday we saw the second big event of the 2015 award season, The Screen Actors Guild Awards. So lets take a look at some of the noteworthy looks that graced the carpet last night.

Lupita Nyong'o



Last year Lupita rocked mostly solid colours but this year she's gone all out patterns and it turns out she can rock those too. Stripes & florals? It shouldn't work but it does. Love it.

Natalie Dormer
I absolutely love this dress but I feel it's very un-Natalie who seems more edgy. I mean seriously that look could turn you to stone. Very pretty though.

Maisie Williams
I feel like I just want to go up to her and yank the dress up an inch or two then I think I could be on board with this look a little more. Also, jewellery. This needs jewellery.

Julianne Moore
All red heads should wear emerald green. Like all the time. They no longer have any choice in the matter.

Rosamund Pike
MAJOR improvement from the Golden Globes but still not her best look. Hopefully she's just waiting to knock the ball out of the park at the Oscars.

Emma Stone
This is a very confused outfit. I saw this first when she was sat down during the awards. I was expecting trousers...still if anyone could pull it off it it's this girl.

Keira Knightly
Looooove the colour! And I get that she wants to wear a looser dress what with the baba and toasty LA weather but this look just isn't working for me. Lose the overly flouncy peplum, then we can talk.

Laverne Cox
Go hard or go home, eh girl? This is all a bit much. Big hair, heavy make-up, shinyness and strappyness. I'd say bring it down a notch but this is Laverne Cox so that's like telling a peacock to take it easy on the feathers. You do you, Laverne.

Anna Chumsky
It looks like Anna wanted to go for a simple strapless gown but then thought, "hmmm there's something missing. I know! I'll add an off the shoulder waistcoat wannabe. That'll do the trick!" No it won't Anna. No it won't.

Ariel Winter
You work those curves girl cause DANG! The added vampyness of the black hair and nails just makes it all even better.

Lorelai Linklater
Quick someone help! Lorelei's been eater alive by her dress. Otherwise known as a perfect example of the dress wearing her rather than the other way round.

Alyssa Reiner
This just looks so awkward to wear. Not only would it be impossible to walk in but she also has the constant threat of the whole thing slipping down and having a major nips crisis.

Overall I'd say it was a top notch red carpet but I have to give best dressed of the night to Lupita Nyong'o. That girl knows how to rock a gown! Who was your best dressed of the SAG awards?

Red Carpet Review: SAG Awards 2013

Posted by Unknown with No comments
Last night we saw round 2 of Award Season, The Screen Actors Guild Awards. I have to say I wasn't that impressed with the fashion last night, there was no hands down winner for me this time. Nevertheless let's begin with those who were, in my opinion, the better dressed women of the night.

Maria Menounos, Clea DuVall, Mayim Bialik, Nina Dobrev, Amy Poehler
This slinky red gown worn by Maria Menounos was one of those where from the front it appears sophisticated and simple and then she turns around and you discover that sexy back. I love backless dresses when they are done right and this is one of those examples. 

Admittedly, I think I would have preferred Clea DuVall's dress had the sheer fabric been only on the back and not creeped around the front to give a cutout look to the dress. However I love that it still manages to pull fun, simple and sophisticated together into one dress with success.

Can anyone tell that I love me a long sleeved lacy number yet? I know it's very similar to Nicole Richie's from the Golden Globes but I still love it. I think that that also shows how versatile this look can be that two pretty different women can both look fabulous in it. 

I gave the top spot to Nina Dobrev because she was the first person I saw and thought straight away, I love her dress. There was a lot of dark, jewel coloured dresses last night so I loved seeing the pink in the see of black. I'm also a sucker for sleeves even when they're short. I can take or leave the small lace panels on the torso and I'm not loving the earrings but overall it was something a little different that still worked.

Amy Poehler has so far looked incredible throughout award season. At the Golden Globes she rocked the androgynous look but last night she was all woman in this amazingly slinky black number that seemed to fit her like a glove. Simplicity done right.

Kaley Cuoco, Sigourney Weaver, Rose Byrne, Anne Hathaway, Julianne Moore.
Seriously Kaley, what is going on with your hair? It looks like a helmet which is not a good look. The dress itself is actually not that bad. I absolutely love the colour but what I don't understand is the length. It makes Kaley look really short. I definitely think it would have looked better as a floor length dress.

Without a doubt, I had to give this to Sigourney Weaver. It genuinely looks like she's stuck a pillow to her chest. It really doesn't do anything for her. And to top it off we have another case of a dress needing to be longer.

Rose Byrne went for a look similar to Sigourney and although she managed to pull it off much better it still wasn't working for me. I think I could have dealt with the top if the frills didn't go all the way down the sides as well. With all those fills and then the very flowery pattern it was just too 'little girl' for me.

This dress was confused. That's all I can say. It was a mini dress underneath then had a tulle skirt that didn't quite go to the floor. It wanted to be sexy with the sequinned mini dress and then a sheer princess dress has been put over the top. I just don't get it. Her hair and make up however, looked amazing!

I was disappointed with this look from Julianne Moore. She only narrowly missed out on appearing in my best dressed at the Golden Globes but this time around, just no. The bottom looks like it's made from an old quilt while the top is suffering the same fate as Jessica Chastain from the Golden Globes. Ill fitted dresses are just not a good look.

Like I said, I was not overly impressed by the red carpet this time, there wasn't even that many major disasters! Disappointing. 

Next up we move to British soil for the BAFTAs in a fortnights time so I'll see you then!

Who was your best and worst dressed last night?
