Sunday Night at the 61st Emmy showed that fashion is all about cut outs, sparkles and color.
Here are some of my favorite (then least favorite) on the carpet!!
This color is not my favorite, but looks awesome with her skin and hair color. The length and tulle are unusual and surprising which makes her one of my favorite! And the understated coolness of this dress is just like Mila.
Kristin Chenoweth
LOVE! I would totally wear this. The sparkle is dramatic, but she kept it cute with the shorter length - she is so petite! The outrageously fun dress matches her personality perfectly. And did you know she is 41?! Kristin also got to dazzle on stage as she accepted her Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress for the now cancelled Pushing Daisies.
I applaud her for wearing short, it looks great and all the beading makes it evening enough to be one of my favorites on the red carpet. The neck line is also surprisingly flattering and attractive. I just don't like the shoes, they look a little 90's prom!
Mary-Louise Parker
LOVE the purple and the bow and the one shoulder... which I normally don't like! Parker pulls all this off so effortlessly, and did you know she is one hot mom at 45! but I am not so sure about the shoes...
And Then There were the Others...
Some stars risks were more just plain 'What Were They Thinking?!' All of them were just Too... Too something!!
Let me know if you agree.
Names have been left out to protect the guilty...
TOO Much like Xena/A Sour Grape
What is up with all those grape vines all around her shoulders? I think she would have looked pretty with the flowers on one side... it's the vines that make her look just Too much like a grape gone bad.
TOO Much Fabric
Girl, you got new boobs, show them off! There is just too much fabric, TOO much draping and TOO much covering up. Hair and make up is great though!
TOO Much Lace
This dress made a lot of Best Dressed list's, but after long consideration, I just think she took it a little TOO overboard. And that back... Nude is sexy, nude with a huge zipper up your back that you can blatantly see and that is kind of crooked is not.
TOO Pale
Come on love, you are already pale, you know you should not be wearing a dusty icky pale pink. And the cheesy flowers make you look like a grandmother's couch.
TOO much like a Q-TIP
At first glance this would have been beautiful, and she did LOOK beautiful when all is said and done. But the dress itself literally looks like two Q-Tips on her shoulders about to poke her face. I want to say "Watch Out for that Giant Q-tip - It's going to poke you in that pretty face of yours!!!"
TOO Old
Why does this darling little diva always want to look older? This whole look is TOO old and she is TOO short to wear this gown. I'm just saying.
TOO MUCH FABRIC/TOO MOO MOO-ESQ
TOO Ugly to have been worn at the Emmys. I mean, seriously, who did she ask before she left the house and said "How do I look?" Did someone say you look like a grandmother about to go to bed? Because honestly, what was she thinking? And that little broach in the middle does not make up for the fact that the color is horrible, the fit is beyond flattering and she looks like she rolled out of bed. Oh, poor girl.
(Blake's Hair/Back)
TOO Juvenile
I really loved Blake's dress (that's why we could mention the name) But that hair spoiled the sleek and sophisticated look she had going on. From the front, she was perfection, but the hair and the ill pony tail look just TOO juvenile!
