AWARDS SHOW MANIA: SCREEN ACTORS GUILD

ALOOOOOHA
The SAG Awards happened,
which means THE OSCARS ARE GETTING CLOSER!!
And geez hooliah, most everyone looked incredible!
Way better than the Critics Choice!
Here are my thoughts:
The Good:
Amber Riley in Ann Barge
SO PERFECT
diva-esque, and body conscious!
Julia Stiles in Monique Lhuiller
LOVE!
January Jones in Carolina Herrera
Different, but it totally works
Natalie Portman in Azzaro
BABY BELLY!
fertility goddess!
Mila Kunis in Alexander McQueen
BAAAAAAAH
<3>
like she popped on a beautiful white dress,
went all Lady McBeth on someone,
and instead of being like "out out damn spot!!"
she just ROCKED IT and was like,
BLACK SWAN BITCHES.
So long that 70s show!


The Bad:
Amy Adams in Herve Ledger
TOTALLY washes her out
Nicole Kidman in Nina Ricci
something about this look just creeps me out.
she looks like an orphaned teenager from a tim burton movie
who gains strength from burning dolls and eats spiderwebs
or something.


The Beauty:
Natalie Portman
Makeup by Eileen Kastner-Delago
Hair by Orlando Pita
her signature shimmery smokey eye, this makeup is stunning,
(but the hair is strange, aging, and flat)

Lea Michele

Makeup by Melanie Inglessis

Hair by Mark Townsend for Dove

beyond simple, minimal but so lovely.

check those lashes!

Tina Fey
Makeup by Gita Bass
Hair by Richard Marin
Classy, Classy, Classy.


and my favorite of the night:
Helena Bonham Carter, looking adorable!
still her kookywooky self, but tucked in and toned down.
her shoes match, the dress is fun, and her hair
-still big and random-
has been brushed and styled.

Emmy Awesomeness

So, I loved this years Emmys.
They were sweet, light hearted, fun and all the winners were very deserving.
Favorite moment: the speech that guy from modern family gave- so moving.
I cried.
Big baby tears.
Of course, the stars brought it in the fashion department-
I love the Emmys because everyone is more relaxed than the other awards shows,
and it shows on the red carpet!
Some of my favorites (and my love for Glee in no way affects my choices):


Betty White once again proved that she is the most badass old lady around,
daring to rock a breezy cotton candy two piecer.
YUM
Lea Michelle (in Oscar de la Renta) loves her dark, dramatic dresses-
and this wonderful dress is the quintessence of her look.
I loooved her necklace and her sleek, smoky eyes.
- but just to be a diva, her hair looks a little sloppy.
Jenny Ushkowitz in Kevin Hall looks classy and all around beautiful
with perfect hair, gorgeous scarlett dress and killer accessories-
even her pose is perfect!
Get off Broadway girl! You was born for the red carpet!
YOU EVEN MATCH IT!
Amber Riley in a Melissa Masse custom dress...
DAMN GIRL-
I love a good grecian dress, and I also love dressing for your figure.
Somewhere, the muses are singing.
Elizabeth Moss in Donna Karan-
This was one of the most incredibly designed dresses of the night
for such a haute couture je nou se qua it translates AWESOMELY to red carpet!
and flatters her curves wonderfully.
Also, you can't tell from this picture, but it moved like a dream.
My FAVE of the night,
Kyra Sedgwick in Monique Lhuillier.
She looks like she feels comfortable, happy and relaxed.
And that is just damn sexy.
(I bet Kevin Bacon was all over that)
It is the most beautiful color and fabric,
and combined with her glammed up beachy waves, sparkling grin,
unconventional boho bangles and SLAMMING body
She looks effortlessly stunning.
like the sugarplum fairy.


Of course,
there were those who were just epic fails.
Honey, you are so hot.
Are you TRYING to be a boner killer?
Those shoes, that hair, that god awful dress.
This isn't prom night.
Fire your hair stylist.
Where did she even FIND a disaster like this?
it looks like a gothic flamingo threw up on her.
And her husbands shoes.
I'm not sure if he is trying to look approachable,
but I just want to burn his feet.
Too bad this dress had so much potential-
It comes across as a bat run through a dish washer.
Was she trying to make a joke?
I'm not laughing.
And neither is her mercilessly teased hair.
COME ON KAPOOR!

p.s. uploading my video tutorials is proving to be
more time consuming than shaving a gorilla.
apologies.
