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!

The Met’s Costume Institute Gala 2012: Best Dressed

7 May, 2012 Nelia

met-costume-institute-gala-2012-giovanna_battaglia-dolce-gabbana

I am not exactly sure if we’re going to see eye-to-eye on my Best Dressed picks from the Met’s Costume Institute Gala 2012. But here they come. My number one pick for Best Dressed is Giovanna Battaglia in a floral Dolce and Gabbana gown, topped off with a floral crown (my recent obsession). She looks breathtaking…and a little Frida-Kahlo-esque…and I love everything about her look.

diane-kruger-prada-met-2012

Diane Kruger (in a floor-sweeping Prada number) can do no wrong in my eyes. She looks stunning, no? Interesting enough, but not crazy. I love the dress, the accessories, the hair and the makeup. Brava, Diane! Brava!

chloe-sevigny-miu-miu-met-2012

And then we have the yin to Diane’s yang. There’s something slightly off about this Miu Miu outfit that Chloe Sevigny has chosen for the Met Gala, and yes, it’s a little crazy, but I still love it. It’s the antithesis of boring. And while it might not be the classiest of getups, I kinda…not-so-secretly wish I could pull something like this off. So because of Chloe’s guts (or her stylist’s), I give this look two thumbs up.

rooney-mara-met-2012-givenchy

Rooney Mara in Givenchy is another one of my Best Dressed picks, because I really love what she has going on here. The hair and makeup really suit the dress, and I like that she went easy on the jewels…or rather, went jewel-less. There’s something weird going on in the crotch area…but I am willing to shrug it off as a photo-mishap.

ginnifer-goodwin-monique-lhuillier-met-2012

How gorgeous did Ginnifer Goodwin look in that Monique Lhuillier gown? So pretty, right? I wish she’d smile a little, and not look so annoyed and/or grim in photos. Come on, Ginny! It’s a ball! You have a pretty dress on! You’re dating an effing prince! Ok, not a real prince, but it still counts…I think. Either way, she’s still a fave of mine, and I love this dress (and the color) on her so much!

Style Fille: Ginnifer Goodwin at the White House

30 April, 2012 Nelia

2012 White House Correspondents' Association Dinner - Arrivals

Last weekend, Snow White went to the White House, and she looked spectacular…in H&M. Rememeber H&M’s Conscious Glamour Collection? Yup, Ginnifer Goodwin rocked it at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner! I loved that dress at first sight, but when it came time to buying it, I chickened out. And now I wish I hadn’t. Oh, well, good for GG!

In other news, did you know that Snow White and The Prince were dating??? Ok, fine…I’ll stop with all the Once Upon A Time geeking out, but seriously. Ginnifer Goodwin and Josh Dallas are apparently an item, and I really dig that. I think Josh is a definite improvement over that American Pie guy…don’t you think?

Anyway…what do you think of Ginnifer’s H&M dress? Share your thoughts in the comments.

Style Fille: Ginnifer Goodwin

7 March, 2012 Nelia

ginnifer-goodwin-leather-dress

Looks like my favorite Snow White is giving Diane Kruger a run for her money…style-wise, of course. Check out Ginnifer Goodwin in a Shoshanna leather dress, expertly paired with orange Giuseppe Zanotti platform heels and a fun oversized bracelet! Who knew a leather dress could look so sweet? Also, did I mention how much I love her pixie cut? A LOT.

What do you think of Ginnifer’s chic spring outfit? Yay or nay? Share in the comments.

Style Fille: Ginnifer Goodwin vs. Emma Stone

13 January, 2012 Nelia

After poring over the numerous People’s Choice Awards (which admittedly I don’t watch) celeb photos, my two fave outfits belonged to Ginnifer Goodwin and Emma Stone. Both looked gorgeous, stylish, with a loud pop of color. But who wore it best? I do realize that the outfits are completely different, but what I want to know is which one is more your steeze? I think I’m team Ginnifer…but I kinda really love both. Take the poll below and let me know what you think.

Style Fille: Ginnifer Goodwin

25 November, 2011 Nelia

This photo of Ginnifer Goodwin in Vionnet is at least a few months old, but it seems very appropriate to post it now – as her outfit looks so perfect for the holidays! Really loving the combination of velvet and leather…a lot.

On an unrelated Ginnifer Goodwin note. Have you been watching Once Upon a Time? I’ve been hooked from the very beginning. As someone who looooves Wicked (by Gregory Maguire), I am really happy with the way the show has been bringing fairy tales to life. And casting Ginnifer as Snow White, with her pixie haircut – even better!

 What do you think of Ginnifer’s outfit? Share in the comments.

The Met’s Costume Institute Gala 2011: Best

3 May, 2011 Nelia

There’s no night like the Met’s Costume Institute Gala for fashion porn. To me, not even the Oscars can compete with THE  fashion event that is Met Ball. Which is why, year after year, I keep hoping for more drama, more choices that aren’t exactly safe – something eye-popping, gorgeous, and not boo-ring. This year, there were so many champagne color safe gowns, some really beautiful (Gwyneth Paltrow in Stella McCartney), others (cough*Kate Hudson in Stella McCartney*cough) not so much, but all withouth exception – boring, boring, boring. And though the idea of “Best Dressed” is really a matter of preference and opinion, here are my top 5 best-dressed ladies of the night.

1. Ginnifer Goodwin in Topshop Unique

Lovely pop of color and that beautiful face with perfect makeup, and her new-ish pixie. This one was my favorite look of the night.

2. Diane Kruger in Jason Wu

You already know that I love me some Diane. And I felt that her super-high thigh-slit and those gorgeous gams of hers really made this look. So hot!

3. Margherita Missoni in Missoni

A dress that is part sorbet buffet and part Swan Lake…I’m all over it! Love her choice of accessories, and that messy bun. Such a fun, fresh, young look. Love it!

4. Anna Dello Russo in Alexander McQueen

This was rather understated for ADR, no? But I still loved her take on feminine tuxedo-dressing, egg-headpiece and all.

5. Liv Tyler in Givenchy Couture

The entire Spring 2011 Givenchy Couture collection was one of the best in a very long time, and this gown is definitely anything but boring. I love the color, the feathers, and the origami-like detailing. I wish I could wear something this beautiful one day. It’s exquisite!

Do you agree with my picks? Do you think they are hideous? Did you have some other favorites? Discuss in the comments?

2009 Emmy Awards: Best Dressed

21 September, 2009 Nelia

emmys

Did you watch Emmy Awards last night? I have to admit that I did not. Instead, I re-watched Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End, with my ex-crush Orlando Bloom, and my current (and longtime) one Johnny-Sparrow-Depp. When is the next one coming out? I thought they filmed it a while ago, or did I dream it up?

Anyway, Emmy fashion choices really did not impress me this time around. Stale fashions, same old, same old. Lots of black dresses in boring cuts…yawn! In my opinion, the ladies above were the ones that actually stood out from the rest: Chloe Sevigny in an unexpected polka-dotted gown, Leighton Meester in a gorgeous white Grecian dress, Ginnifer Goodwin with her adorable pixie cut, wearing a lucite necklace, and my favorite of the night – Sandra Oh in a gold strapless Marchesa gown, that fit her like a glove! If only I had the same budget as any of those actresses…I would have no problems finding something to wear to the weddings coming up. Sigh…
