2014 Screen Actors Guild Awards Fashion Review!

23 Jan

Eesh.  I think the dresses at the SAG award were either REALLY REALLY awesome or just plain awful.

**copyright claim** all photos are courtesy of just about every single entertainment website on the internet.

We’ll start with the WORST DRESSED!

Betsy Brandt

Betsy Brandt

HAHAHA WHAT IS THIS????

Cate Blanchett

cate-blanchett

I like the color and the dress in general.  BUT random pieces of fabric hanging with no rhyme or reason bothers me.  Maybe that’s why I’m not known for my fashion sense. (I’m still in my tank and yoga pants as I write this)

Claire Danes

claire-danes

This dress looks like an unfinished thought. To sparkle or not to sparkle.

Jane Krakowski

jane-krakowski-sag-awards-2014

Is it just me or does this dress look like something out of Back to the Future pt. 2?

Julia Louis-Dreyfus
julia-louis-dreyfus

Is it just me or are her boobs looking strange in this dress? Like the color but hate the weird chest action.    Congrats on your win though!

Julie Bowen

julie-bowen

You were on my best dressed on my very first fashion review.  It’s taking a long time to climb out of that fashion hole you threw yourself into.  You have the potential. Realize it. Go back to the beginning and start from there.

Juliette Lewis

juliette-lewis-sag-awards-2014

Are you imitating Lucy Liu from the 2013 Golden Globes?

Malin Akerman

malin-akerman

Yuck.  At least it wasn’t the fun bag fallout dress!

Mayim Bialik

mayim-bialik

You actually said to yourself, “I’m gonna wear this to the SAG awards tonight.”  WOW. You keep topping yourself Mayim!  However, congrats on all your success.

 Sandra Bullock

sandra-bullock

Ms. Bullock .. you have graced my best dressed list many times and this is the first time I have to say that this dress…. it ain’t it.  I don’t like the bow on the side, I’m not wild about the fabric or the color… I pretty much just dont’ like it.  But I love you and I can’t wait to see what you wear to the Oscars this year!! Congrats on your win at the SAG awards!! xxoo

Flower Patterns

It’s like all these fine actresses coordinated their dresses or something.  I love them all and they get a pass for their ill-fated fashion attempt … but I don’t like flowers on dresses.

Rita Moreno

Rita Moreno

Emma Thompson

emma-thompson

Helen Mirren

helen-mirren

“I’m the new Christina Hendricks” Award.  Holy Boobies.

Ariel Winter

ariel-winter

AWESOME COUPLES!

I love me some couple action. I love when they pose together and put on a unified front.  Love these peeps!

Chiwetel Ejiofor and Sari Mercer

chiwetel-ejiofor

What a gorgeous couple. First time I saw Chiwetel was in Salt.  Can’t wait to see more from you buddy! Congrats on yours nominations!

Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves

matthew-mcconaughey-camila-alves

What a stunning couple.  I love love LOVE Camila’s gown.  What a beautiful color! Bravo!

  Justin Mikita and Jesse Tyler-Ferguson

jesse-tyler-ferguson-justin-mikita

Beautiful couple, beautiful people. I love the tuxes – perfect.

Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson

tom-hanks-rita-wilson

Always a stand out couple.  I love Rita’s dresses.  She is always such a class act.

Undecided …. but definitely peeked my interest!

Abigail Breslin

abigail-breslin

I think you are on the right track and I love the shoulder jacket with sparkle.  I’m going to be watching you.

Amy Adams

amy-adams

I love the color Amy! So bold and just lovely.  I can’t decide if I like the cut of the chest/shoulder or not.  Either way, it’s not a total win but it’s not a total loss either.  You look gorgeous.

Natalie Dormer

natalie-dormer

You are so interesting to me.  I’m loving you on The Tudors and I really like you in Game of Thrones.  This dress fits your personality (without me knowing what your personality is actually like… HAHA). I love the sleeves.. they are interesting.

Bringin’ the Wonk… aye… WON-KAY!

Julia Roberts

Julia Roberts collage

I thought this was a dress at first. And I liked it (minus the horrible color). … then I saw it was a jumpsuit??? Yikes.  Wonky to say the least.

Kerry Washington

kerry-washington

I’m all about being proud of your bump. I don’t normally comment negatively on any preggo lady.  However, I will say I have never been crazy about your fashion choices….

Honorable Mention

Kaley Cuoco

kaley-cuoco-sag-awards-2014You always end up on the good end of my lists.  Not a best dressed this time, but you know what works and what doesn’t.  I love your hair too.

Mindy Kaling

mindy-kaling-best-dressed-2014-sag

Very nice! This dress looks beautiful on you.  Needs to be hemmed, but other than that the dress is lovely.  Your hair though… yikes.  Brush it.

Nancy O’Dell

nancy-o-dell

I hate sleeves on gowns with the exception of Kate Middleton’s wedding dress (which is a rule when you are married in the Westminster Abbey).  I love this dress and the color and surprisingly don’t mind the sleeves.

And Ta-Dahhhhhh!  THE BEST DRESSED YA’LL!!!!!

10. Anna Gunn

FINALLY!  I’ve been waiting for you to make my best dressed.  I haven’t liked anything you have worn until now and I KNEW YOU could do it.  Bravo.  I love the sparkle, the color and the halter top. Keep it up.

anna-gunn

9. Maria Menounos

How elegant! I love the color and the bodice.  So beautiful!

maria-menounos

8.  Sofia Vergara

Ugh. I’m so jealous of you and annoyed by you. But, you dress to kill and I’m willing to recognize it.  Can you send your stylist over to Mayim Bialik? She needs help. ASAP.

sofia-vergara

7. Sarah Paulson

You look like you are ready for tea and cake.  Go on, have some. You’ve earned it.

sarah-paulson

6.  Sarah Hyland

You know, I’ve been watching you for a long time. You look so sophisticated and beautiful.  Delicious. Perfect choice. I’m noticing that champagne is a popular color this year.  For good reason, it goes with almost everyone…. in my opinion of course… remember, I have absolutely no training or license to really critique fashion other than I am just an overly opinionated, frumpy, musician, stay at home mom.

sarah-hyland

5. Oprah Winfrey

Heck yea– Oprah, you rock. Perfect color. Love the neck and the flower, and I dig the curls.

oprah-winfrey

4.  Jennifer Garner

You are always so well put together.  I love the color and the waist.  You are unstoppable!

jennifer-garner3. Kelly Osbourne

LOVE the color.  Love the cut and fit of the dress. LOVE the fabric and the detail. I love the shoulders.  I’m done with the purple hair though. I know you are under contract, but sheesh.  Time for a change.

kelly-osbourne2. Jennifer Lawrence

YES YES YES YES!! I love love love this dress!!! OMG.  I love this dress. I would wear this. I totally would. If I looked like you.  Your stylist is earning his/her pay this year.

jennifer-lawrence

and… here it is…….

1. Lupita N’yongo

WOW.  This chick is fierce and ridiculously beautiful.  I am loving her gowns.  She was my number one at the Golden Globes and she’s my #1 here. I absolutely LOVE the color. I love the detail.  I love the make up.. You are so beautiful! I can’t wait to see what you wear to the Oscars.  Congrats on your win lady!

lupita-nyong

Remember, these opinions are just my own and have no weight in the world.  However, if anyone wants to pay me the big bucks to write silly fashion reviews, I’m totally down.  We’re halfway thru award season ya’ll!  Next stop…. The Grammys on Sunday January 26th on CBS!  Can’t wait!

2014 Golden Globes Fashion Review!

18 Jan

Well well well… We are in full swing for the 2014 Award Season.  I ❤ Tina Fey and Amy Poehler!

Loved the opening monologue.  If you missed it, play it below!

Alright.. fashion fashion fashion!!  It was a night full of beautiful preggo ladies, metallic fabrics, wildly-out-of-control bows, fashion risks that came, saw, and failed…. and won. Lets hop to it.

**copyright claim** all photos are courtesy of just about every single entertainment website on the internet.

Where shall we start?  Hmm.  We will start on a positive note.

Preggo beauties


I have a soft spot for anyone who is pregnant and on the public stage.  It’s hard enough creating life 24/7 much less have to wear something in public that makes you feel and look beautiful.  These ladies succeeded in every way. 

Drew Barrymore.

She looks absolutely lovely. Pregnancy looks good on her.


Drew Barrymore

Kerry Washington

My favorite part of Tina Fey and Amy Poehler’s opening was when they addressed Kerry being pregnant and looked into the camera to say “Scandal!” So funny.

Kerry Washington

Olivia Wilde

Pregnancy hotness.  She looks fab.

Olivia Wilde

 

A for Sincerity and Mad Respect for these ladies

I am blinded by love for these ladies, I could care less what they wear. I ❤ them.

Helen Mirren

Ever since Excalibur, I have absolutely adored this lady.  Such a beauty, inside and out.

Helen Mirren

Jessica Lange

It’s no secret that I long to be Jessica’s best friend.  My husband loves her, I love her. She just keeps getting better.

Jessica Lange

Lily Rabe

I. Love. Her.  She is one of the most interesting actresses I have seen in a long time. I cannot wait to see what other projects she takes on. Creepy Nicks forever!

Lily Rabe

Most Improved

THANK GOD.

Julianna Margulies

Julianna Margalies

Beautiful. Almost a best dressed, but not there yet.  HOWEVER, so much better than the curtain pocket fiasco from the 2012 Emmys

Lena Dunham

Lena Dunham

Well done. Well done. Well done! You keep getting better and better! This dress is fun.  The color is cheerful and you look so happy.  So cute.  So proud. It’s very classic and old Hollywood-ish.

 

Julie BowenJulie Bowen

Meh. I don’t love it. but.. meh.  It’s an improvement from what you wore LAST TIME!

Mayim Bialik
Mayim Bailik

SUCH a huge improvement from THIS and THIS!  I’m not a fan of the long sleeves BUT considering that’s all you ever wear, I will say this is my favorite out of the recent gowns you have worn to awards shows. Your make up looks fantastic– so fresh and natural.  VERY nice.

Actually, just an afterthought.  Though it is an improvement, I just want to say, I hate sheer crap.

Heidi Klum

Heidi Klum

Finally!!!!  To be honest every time you walk down the Red Carpet I almost cringe. This time though, you were spot on in your gown decision.  No weird neck collars, no high slits to show Seal what he’s missing and no deep cleavage to show those fun bags of yours.

Emma Watson Emma Watson

Uh, I don’t even know what to say. I wish she could just wear what Hermione wore in the movies. I thinks he also took a cue from Whoopi on what to wear at awards show.

Blah.  So very blah.

Amy Adams
Amy Adams

Meh, it’s not a horrible dress.  However, I’m not a fan of the deep dramatic J-LO circa 2000 cleavage style.  I love your hair and make up though.  Congrats on accepting your golden globe on the 15 anniversary of your move to LA!  You’re one of my favorite actresses, just not one of my favorite gowns tonight. I love you still though.

Alison Williams

Alison Williams

At least it’s not a bridesmaid dress like the last time.

Monica Potter

Monica Potter

Love the hair.  Hate the dress. Looks like my great grandma’s gold and black curtains.

Caitlin Fitzgerald

Caitlin Fitzgerald

The Stepford Wive’s award goes to you! Interesting fabric though.

Taylor Schilling

Taylor Schilling

Love the color.  Love the hair.  Love the make up.  Love YOU. Love your show.   HATE the dress.  Also, you should consider hemming the front.

Julia Roberts

Julia Roberts

It’s not a bad dress.  I was just looking for more.  I’m bored.  It also looks like a random shirt tucked into a strapless dress.  Meh. Doesn’t work for me.

Kristin Chenowith

Kristin Chenowith

Yuck.  Don’t like the color. Don’t like the sleeves. Super boring.  The front of the dress reminds me of Hilary Swanks dress from the 2005 Oscars.

METALLICS, SEQUINS and SHINY SHINY THINGS!

Camilla Alves

Camilla Alves

I love sequins and everything that is shiny.  However, I hate long sleeves.  I don’t like the cut of the dress on the top half. It looks awkward.  Which is really weird because she is a beautiful lady and I would think it would be hard to find anything that would look awkward on her.  BUT there ya go.   Congrats to Matthew for his Golden Globe win and his Oscar nomination!

Dianne Wiest

Dianne Wiest

You are such a lady and I ❤ you. Beautiful choice.  I love the detail, I love the neckline.  Love it.  One of my favorites of the night.

Elizabeth Moss

Elizabeth Moss

This is actually a fun little number. I don’t like your hair, but your make up and your shoes go perfectly with your gown.  Nice job.

PS.  Don’t think I didn’t notice the sheer part on the bottom of the skirt.  Get rid of that and you would have made my best dressed.  Just sayin.

Robin Wright

Robin Wright

I totally saw your sideboob during your acceptance speech. Congrats on your win and congrats on your engagement to Ben Foster! Hotness!

Mila Kunis

Mila Kunis

You don’t look very happy.  In fact, you look annoyed. I like the flow of the skirt and the color.   However, that bow thing is a little much.

Uma Thurman

Uma Thurman

I found this dress to be very interesting.  I love the halter top and accenting your awesome arms. I’m not sure if i like the train or not.  Either way you look like a perfect statuesque lady which makes me completely jealous of you.

Gabourey Sidibe

Gabourey Sidibe

Rock on lady.  Rock on.  You are one of my favorites of the night. AND one of my favorites on Coven.

Sarah Paulson

Sarah Paulson

You always look like you are a little girl who secretly wants a lollipop but does not  have enough courage to ask.  Is it true? If so, you can have one. You’re brilliant.

Bows, WHOAS and OH NOS!

I hate bows. I hate random parts cut out of dresses. I also hate long sleeves.  I hate short dresses at awards shows.  I also hate busy prints that makes me dizzy.

Amy Poehler

Amy Poehler

Uh… it was a great dress up until that random hole in your dress.  Stupid decision on the designer’s part.

Edie Falco

Edie Falco

I hate the color and I hate the freakin’ bow.  She looks like a Christmas present. Is it just me or does the material in the front tailored wonky?

Emma Thompson

Emma Thompson

Love you. Hate the sleeves.

Greta Gerwig

Greta Gerwig

This reminds me of the horrible dress Zooey Deschanel wore previously to the 2012 Emmy Awards.

Jacqueline Bisset

Jacqueline Bisset

Congrats on winning… however, not feeling your dress. It looks like a choice from 1989.

Lizzy Caplan

Lizzy Caplan

Long sleeves and random cut outs.  Nope.

Megan Mullaly

Megan Mullaly

Actually this dress is kinda fun.  But unless you are Anne Shirley or timewarped from the 1980s, don’t wear puff sleeves or floaties. Also i miss your dark hair.

Paula Patton

Paula Patton

WTF. WTF.  I don’t get it. I really don’t. Ugliest dress I have EVER seen in my whole entire life and that includes all the horrible prom dresses I saw at my prom in 1997.

Taissa Farmiga

Taissa Farmiga

I really like you.  Such a pretty girl and a fantastic talent. Choose something longer and a different color. Kinda washed out in my opinion.

Tina Fey

Tina Fey

How quickly they fall. You were on my best dressed last year. This year, not so much. It’s cute but the print is annoying.

Zoe Saldana

Zoe Saldana

OH NO.  Just NO.  Busy print, sheer crap.  Count me out she says.

And … here we are.  The best dressed of the night.

15. Cate Blanchett

Cate Blanchett

What a lovely, classic dress.  I absolutely love the detail, length and neckline of this gown. Perfection.

14. Julia Louis-Dreyfuss

Julia Louis-Dreyfuss

So awesomely cool.  Fits like a glove and looks fabulous. I usually hate coral.. but it works here.

13. Sosie Bacon.  MS. GOLDEN GLOBE.

Sosie Bacon

How gorgeous is she? What a beautiful dress and especially the color!  The detail is great. Love her makeup and her hair.

12. Kaley Cuoco

Kaley Cuoco

It’s no secret that I hate prints.  However, I love the way this dress looks like a painting. Perfect length and neckline.   Congrats on your recent nuptials!

11. Maria Menounos

Maria Menounos

Ms. Menounos is a constant fixture on my best dressed.  I love the pink, I love the design, I love the shoulder caps and neckline and I love the hem and train.  Love it all.

10. Laura Dern

Laura Dern

WOOOOO!  Lady you are a sexy minx.  How could Ben Harper ever let you go? Well done.  And congrats to your Pop!  He’ll always be my favorite neighbor in The ‘Burbs!

9. Nancy O’Dell

Nancy O'Dell

This is another dame who is on my Best Dressed a lot.  She knows what looks good on her and she uses that knowledge to wear something fierce. What a gorgeous color for her!  I love the detail on the neck. The fabric is beautiful. What does it say that a Entertainment Reporter dresses better than most of the stars that she interviews?

8. Michelle Dockery

Michelle Dockery

Way to go Ms. Dockery! Absolutely adore this gown.  So fancy and elegant.  The color melts so wonderfully against the color of your skin too.  Bravo!

PS.  I still hate your show. Boring!

7. Kate Beckinsale

Kate Beckinsale

You look like the most beautiful silver mermaid!  I think you’re so beautiful.  I need another Underworld movie! Get back to it!

6. Reese Witherspoon

Reese Witherspoon

YES YES YES.  Love the dress. Love the color. Love the nails.  Love the hair.  Love YOU.

5. Sandra Bullock

Sandra Bullock

Fun. Flirty. And so GIRLY. ❤

4. Jenna Dewan-Tatum

Jenna Dewan-Tatum

Look at this dress.  She reminds me of Elizabeth Hurley.  I know Jenna is an actress (She was the chick who got to make out with Adam Levine at the beginning of the second season of American Horror Story). However, she was made on the red carpet while on the arm of her man, Channing.  She keeps dressing and impressing!

3. Emma Roberts

Emma Roberts

Sweet Emma is making a name for herself. She is most definitely not just “Julia Roberts’ niece” anymore.  What a fine choice for the Golden Globes. Keep it up!  (it’s too bad Julia didn’t follow her lead)

2. Sofia Vergara

Sofia Vergara

I don’t normally put her on my lists because.. well, she annoys me and I think she is overly saturated in the industry.  However, I cannot ignore how glorious this gown is.  What a dress! What a necklace!

Who’s my #1 Best Dressed???

Lupita Nyong’o

Lupita Nyong'o

How amazing and REGAL! LOVE the neckline and the cape/train.  OMG.  I am in love with this dress. What a queen!  Congrats on your nomination!

That’s it!  Stay tuned for the SAG awards! …. hopefully I’ll get it done a little sooner!  ❤
