SAG.. sounds like an insult, no?

Good morning my little Bambinas and Bambinos,

Not too pleased about how this week is going so I'm just gonna suck it up, drink coffee in the morning and wine in the evening (yes I think I can tolerate a drink or 3 now, after Friday's alcohol debacle), and listen to music. Now, for today's post, the SAG awards... dum dum DUMMMMMMMM!!!! In alphabetical order, starting with:

Amy Adams in Herve L Leroux: I'm a big fan of that line actually. To those who aren't very familiar with Herve L Leroux, it's another line designed by the talented Mr. Herve Leger, but instead of bandages, you get draped material. Very flattering for curvy women. Now the dress itself I like, just not on her. She looks pale and pasty and the colour doesn't help with her complexion at all. Sorry. Didn't do it for me.
Angie Harmon in Monique Lhuillier: It could've looked better I think. I like the bottom half I just really don't like the top, and really choosing pink for a dress like that is begging me to call out PINK FLAMINGO!!
Annette Bening in Tony Ward: Lebanese designers are big this red carpet season aren't they? Not a fan of this either but I think she looks good, and I'm proud that yet another Lebanese designer has been introduced to the red carpet. Yes I'm biased like that.
Claire Danes in Louis Vuitton: I loved it. Loved the colour, the cut, the silhouette, the belt, her hair.. Everything. One of my favourites and it was perfect for the SAG Awards. Not too over-dressed *coughangieharmoncough* and not too under dressed. Perfection. Oh Juliet, I salute you.

Drew Barrymore in Monique Lhullier: What happened here? Why Drew? Why? I like the colour 's it. And maybe the hair a little. But the make up? And the dress itself? And no no! Drew you must redeem yourself at the Oscars.
 
Eva Longoria in Georges Hobeika: Seems like this starlet is a fan of the Lebanese designer. She's been seen in quite a few of his gowns. Not a fan mind you. I know they say "less is more" but I don't think they meant it literally. Love the colour. She still looks better in this than in that black Zac Posen number she wore at the GGs.

Hilary Swank in Versace: She always looks elegant this one. And this dress looks beautiful on her. The colour of the dress works well against the colour of her skin and with her honey locks. Definitely a winner.

January Jones in Carolina Herrera: Not working for me. At all. Sorry Ms. Jones, another miss this season.

Jennifer Lawrence in Oscar de la Renta: I'm confused. I like it and I don't. Like the colour, not sure about the sleeve. I don't know. It's confusing. It can go either way not sure which way to go with right now.
Julianna Margulies in YSL: Love love love. Scarlett is one of those colours that just suits everyone. Doesn't matter if you're blonde, red head, brunette, white, dark, olive tone. It works. The cut is beautiful. Now I know the sweetheart neckline was exaggerated but I think that's the gown's charm/. She looks beautiful in this number. Love it.
Kate Hudson in Pucci: Again, long sleeves, bare back. But this one, I'm not a fan of. Maybe in a different colour? A cream, ivory or off white perhaps if we wanna stick to the almost whites? No. Still won't work. The material is too thin, and Kate doesn't have the right curves. No waist and a small chest. But a killer back.
Kim Kardashian in Marchesa: Looks like an Indian Princess in this one don't she? Love the plum on her. Don't know if I would wear that dress myself, but I think she makes it work.  

Lea Michele in Oscar de la Renta: She went from pink and frills, to sexy and shimmer didn't she? Still don't like it though. Her bust looks weird in this dress.
Mila Kunis in Alexander McQueen: I love it. She's on a roll this one ain't she? From that beautiful emerald green to this lovely floral red. Beautiful.
Natalie Portman in Azaro: Now that's a cute dress. I think if Azaro heard me call the 2 million dollars worth of diamond encrusted dress cute, I'd be thrown in fashion prison. But I meant that she looks cut with her baby bump. I liked it more than the Viktor & Rolf number she wore at the GGs.
Nicole Kidman in Nina Ricci: I don't know if I should wonder what has been going on in Nicole Kidman's head with her dress choices, or what has been going on in Nina Ricci's head when she was designing? First Halle Berry's dress and now this? And Nicole? What happened to you? Tsk tsk.
Sarah Hyland in Max Mara: Very cute, fresh and age appropriate. She looks adorable in this one. I like it.

Tina Fey in Oscar de le Renta: I like it and I don't. Colour looks good on her. Not sure about the many many flowers that adorn this dress.
Well, these are my picks. Can't wait for the Oscars. And for now, if you haven't already caught a glimpse of it, the new Rihanna video. It deserves a post of its own, but I couldn't wait.


Very wired,
Bambi

  2. Personally I think the dress wore her, she didn't wear the dress. My favourites though were definitely Claire Danes' and Mila Kunis'.
