Emmy Awards 2013 - My Favorites

Hola,

How goes it my fellow fashionistas? If you're reading this post, I hope life is treating you super fabulous.

So last night those of us who love to ask "who are you wearing" were in fashion heaven watching the red carpet for the 2013 Emmy awards. I figured why not write a short post on my top five favorite dresses from the night with a few runners up and of course my least favorites as well. After all, it's all about fashion and that's what I love. So these are the dresses that caught my eye because of their style, color, fit or all of the above...

Here we go:

#5 - Allison Williams in Ralph Lauren. This strapless dress is beautifully simple yet elegant. The color is gorgeous and I love the fit of the bodice and the flow and lines of the skirt.




#4 - Rose Byrne in Calvin KleinThis dress defines what minimal is. However, you cannot ignore that it is also sleek and very sexy. The crossed cropped top of the dress gives it that extra umph. The color is very pretty.




#3 - Tina Fey in Narciso Rodriguez. She looks amazing in this halter dress. The fit enhances her curves so beautifully and the color again, is gorgeous. 




#2 - Zooey Deschanel in J. Mendel. This light blue column dress looks amazing on her. I love that she chose this color because it plays up her eyes so well. I adore the style. She looks so elegant.




And my absolute favorite dress of the night was....


#1 - Kerry Washington in Marchesa! I thought she looked stunning in this dress. The white with gold embellishment enhances her skin tone. It was beautiful, romantic and wispy. Well done Ms. Pope!




Runners up in no particular order:

Sofia Vergara in Vera Wang. I just love her and yes, she wears the same style pretty much to every award show but she's got that body so go on Sofia! Flaunt it girl!




Kaley Cuoco in Vera Wang. I love the bodice/bustier of this dress with the sheer panels that give it a sexy look.




Now that I’ve picked my favorites, here are my least favorite dresses. I'm not going to say "worst dressed" because that's kind of mean. Everyone does have different tastes so let's not judge too much. Let’s allow everyone to wear what they like, what they feel comfortable in and what makes them happy. However, sometimes people do “miss” in their choices and so that’s where we come in ;)… Surprisingly, there were only two that did not wow me at all. Here they are:

Zosia Mamet in Honor. The print of the dress is not that bad, not good but not too bad. What really threw me off was that black and white piece in the bust area. Why add that? Had it been just the strapless print dress, it would have been a completely different look.





And my absolutely LEAST favorite dress was this...

Lena Dunham in Prada. Oh my gosh! Why? Why? Why? I'm sorry but everything about this is just wrong but hey if she loved it and was happy wearing it, more power to her.




There you have it my loves. I must say that I was very happy to see a whole lot of bright colors on the carpet this year. You all know my love for color so I was ecstatic to see bright blues, yellows, purples, greens, reds, etc. I hope this trend continues for the remainder of the award shows. Well, one show down and a few more to go... Let me know what you think of my favorites and not so favorites from the 2013 Emmy Awards. I'm sure everyone has their personal likes and dislikes, and may agree or disagree with my choices. So you all know the drill. If you'd like to chat with me, please feel free to comment below.

Until next time...
