EMMY'S FASHION RECAP!

As anyone who has ever met me or read this blog probably knows, I looooooooooooooooove television. As such, the Emmy's should really be the highlight of my fall, but I usually fell kind of "meh" about them. Last nights were pretty ok, Jimmy Kimmel was funny, but whoever was writing the jokes for the presenters should be FIRED. Every awarded presentation ended up being kind of awkward and un-amusing. Also, dear everyone nominated, let's plan at least an idea of what we might say if we win. There is nothing more uncomfortable than a blubbering actor with an award in his hand.

 My only SERIOUS complaint of the night is that Sons of Anarchy got snubbed for Best Drama AGAIN. Now, I like Mad Men enough, but in my personal opinion, it's not even anywhere close to the Best Drama on television [which is probably why Homeland won, a decision that I fully agree with]. I think the Emmy's need to show SOA some love and quit being ridiculous!

 All that being said, let's get to the fashion!!

LOVE IT

Tina Fey-if you were to assume [like me] that most television actors are actually their characters in real life, you would expect Tina to show up dressed like Liz Lemon, in a cardigan and glasses. This gal cleans up well! She almost always gets it right on the red carpet, and for that I think that her stylist deserves a bonus. Two thumbs up!

LEAVE IT

This look is very, very harsh for January Jones. When you already have no personality and a bitch face, you should consider doing a softer look with your hair. Also, that dress looks like it was hairsprayed within an inch of its life. NoThankYou.

MEH

I really want to like this dress that Ginnifer Goodwin is wearing, but there's something not quite right about it for me. The fact that it kind of looks like drapes doesn't bother me, and I love the pop of orange, but I am seriously not on board with the party in the front, black tie in the back look here. I think if you want an asymmetrical hem, then it should have actually been substantially shorter in the front [around knee length in my humble opinion]. I'm pretty sure that's what's holding me back from giving this dress a LOVE IT

LOVE IT

DAYUM GIRL- rock it!! I have to say, I love everything about Heidi Klums outfit. There are very few people that could rock that slit, and she rocks it well. I also must say that I love the Seafoam color of this dress.

LEAVE IT

Oh Lena. We all know that you are not the size and shape of a supermodel and we LOVE you for it, but that doesn't mean that you have to wear things that make you look extra frumpy! I think this dress is quite pretty, but is a bit too old for her. It could have been greatly improved for her look if it were cocktail length or taken in a bit, but as it is, she is just drowning in lace. I do, however, love the new hair cut.

MEH

Edie Falco needs to tan and bleach a little less. She is starting to look like a Mom from the Jersey Shore.

LOVE IT

I love, love, loved the pops of chartreuse that appeared at the Emmy's last night. Don't get me wrong, I love a fabulous metallic dress or a sleek black one, but who says that black tie always has to be black?? I think the color and cut of this dress are perfect for Julie.

LEAVE IT

What the what? Kristen Wiig, I have no words. You know better.

MEH

I don't hate this dress. But I don't love this dress. And what is up with everybody's harsh hair dos. Not cute America!

LOVE IT

Alison Williams looked gorgeous last night. Great dress, great color, great make up, great hair. If she keeps this up, she will be a red carpet favorite before you know it!

LEAVE IT

Ashley Judd-woof! This dress looks totally homemade! I know because, as a youngster, my mom used to make my homemade dresses. What the what? Also, that color? No thanks! Mauve is generally not a great idea, EVER. And that hair? I can't. I really can't even. She gets a firm NO MA'AM.

MEH

I like Zosia Mamet's dress but the hair/eyebrows/ears combo doesn't dot it for me. Girl, I feel you, I've got ears that stick out as well, but I generally try to do an updo that ever so slightly covers the top of them so everything on my face looks as proportional as possible. Whoever told you that you should slick your hair down was WRONG. So wrong.

LOVE IT

Amy Poehler is getting a divorce and is back on the prowl. Me-ow!

LEAVE IT

Um, dear Blossom, I realize that you are the unconventional type, but did you get this dress at Goodwill? It's just plain awful.

MEH

After seeing Hayden Panetierre last weekend here in Nashville, I know that she is tee-tiny enough for me to fit in my pocket! This dress, while gorgeous, doesn't quite do her justice. It makes her look a bit older and heavier than she actually is. But again, the dress itself is divine.

LOVE IT

Leslie Mann- literally dying over this dress. The perfect combo of boho and completely chic. Love love love.

LEAVE IT

Sofia, this is not the Mule Day Queen pageant. Tone it down a bit would ya?

MEH

Kelly Osborne keeps getting skinnier and skinnier! Homegirl needs to start a tumblr with dieting tips [haha]. I don't have strong feelings of hatred towards this dress, it just doesn't totally do it for me.

LOVE IT

Get it Lucy Lu. This dress is to die for.

LEAVE IT

Ummm.....I don't hate the color of this dress, and I love the dress itself, but somehow the color, cut, detailing and that hair all together make me go "no thanks!"

MEH

I mean, I'm just kind of over her. Is that so bad? Also, when you have boobs that big, they do NOT naturally lift that high. What about if you just let them be for a minute instead of constantly pushing them up to your chin? It's getting kind of gross.

LOVE IT

There's that color again! I can see why some people might not like this dress, but as soon as she came out to present, I was all like "oooooooh". I'm also impressed that she can wear that color with her skin tone and hair color. Any form of yellow makes me look like I am on my death bed. Well done, Julianne!

ONE MORE LOVE IT

Get it, Padma!!

So, what did you guys think about Emmy fashion this year? Give it to me straight!!!
