Emmy Awards 2013: The Meh, The Blah, and The Bad

23 September, 2013 Nelia

emmy-awards-lena-dunham-prada

How boring was Emmy Awards fashion last night, you guys? And the actual award show itself, even with my beloved Neil Patrick Harris hosting – it was a snoozefest! If only my house had AMC and Showtime, I would surely be watching Breaking Bad and Dexter instead, but alas…Emmys it was.

Truth be told, I couldn’t find even FIVE starlets worthy the Best Dressed title, so instead, this year’s Emmy Awards get The Meh, The Blah, and The Bad awards here on Style Blog, with the exception of Lena Dunham. No, I don’t love her Prada dress, but it was by far the least boring gown on the red carpet last night, and for that, I commend her. The dress is cute and youthful, she looks pretty and happy, and she’s not wearing white…GAWD, all the white dresses last night! I will never understand how so many of North America’s most beautiful women could manage to look so boring.

The Meh: Kate Mara, Jessica Pare, Claire Danes

Ok, so The Meh dresses were actually pretty good. I liked Mara’s J.Mendel gown, liked her hair, but was it amazing? It was good, yes…but not great. Same thing with Jessica Pare in a lovely aquamarine Oscar de la Renta, which looks a bit odd in the boobage area, even though the colour looks so good on her. Claire Danes’ Armani Privé was also great in theory…it’s actually growing on me as I type this, but I still don’t love it. It sags at the front, and again with the non-colour! Perhaps it’s not fair, but I expect more from Danes. She’s not Carrie Underwood, you know?

TIFF 2013: 15 Best Celebrity Looks

16 September, 2013 Nelia

"Love Punch" Premiere - Arrivals - 2013 Toronto International Film Festival

Can’t believe another TIFF has come to an end…12 Years a Slave won People’s Choice award, I saw Michael Fassbender at the premiere, admired the Khaleesi’s natural beauty, watched Abigail Breslin get a hand massage, and attended a few fun TIFF Suites. It was a whirlwind several days, but as always – it was a blast! This year, more than a few high-profile stars made their way to Toronto, and while most actresses chose low-key looks (no super fancy Venice-style gowns for us!), there were still more than a few notable outfits that turned heads at TIFF.

Some of my faves included the inimitable Emma Thompson in a mod pink frock, Julia Roberts in a lacy red Dolce & Gabbana, Keira Knightley in a beautiful Mary Katrantzou dress, and Alicia Vikander in a floral Erdem gown (Canadian points to Alicia!). But there were definitely lots more to admire! Here’s hoping next year we’ll see even more glam celeb looks in Toronto.

Which of the below 15 TIFF looks did you like best? Share your favourites in the comments.

Emmy Awards 2012: Best Dressed

25 September, 2012 Nelia

julianna-margulies-giambattista-valli-emmy-2012

I realize that Emmy Awards are just the beginning of the award season and aren’t as prestigious as, say, the Oscars, so in order not to use up all of their “good” outfits, the stars choose their safer options to get the red carpet circuit started…but was I the only person that found the majority of Emmy’s attendees wearing the I-AM-BORED-OUT-OF-MY-MIND-I-COULD-FALL-ASLEEP gowns? My gawd, even some of my favorite actresses wore dresses that belonged on one of those Desperate Housewives of Idaho broads.

Anyway…there were a few ladies, who I actually thought looked exciting at the Emmy’s…and they were…imaginary drumroll…Julianna Margulies in a gorgeous…GORGEOUS Giambattista Valli printed gown, January Jones in a lovely and dramatic Zac Posen stunner, Emilia Clarke in a fresh embroidered Chanel dress, Ginnifer Goodwin in a Monique Lhullier orange-crush beaded frock, and my favoritest lady of all – Tina Fey in an elegant Vivienne Westwood gown.

So these are my personal faves, but what about you? Which gowns did you like/love/hate/couldn’t care less about at the Emmy’s this year? Share in the comments!
