Best Dressed at the 2020 SAG Awards: All My Picks

I don't really watch the SAG Awards but I do love watching the Red Carpet. This year was no exception. This was tougher than the Golden Globes in terms of picking best dressed because the ladies stepped it up.

Jane Seymour, at 68, looked like she has been sipping from the fountain of youth. She was absolutely dazzling in a silver sequin gown that hugged her curves beautifully. Seymour credits being in shape with intermittent fasting and giving up alcohol. Her dress, designed by SHO, was simple and complimented her perfectly.


Jen Aniston wore black to the Golden Globes and white to the SAG Awards where she won for her new series The Morning Show. Her vintage style gown was Christian Dior circa 1999. The gown was simple yet she was stunning. 



Cynthia Erivo has quickly turned into a red carpet darling. She does no wrong in terms of her style 
choices. The London actress was nominated for her performance in Harriett and wore a bright color blocked gown by Schiaparelli. The dress is so gorgeous and clearly the centerpiece so she only needed simple jewelry which she did perfectly. 


Jennifer Lopez is a red carpet fave of mine personally. She is always stunning, and the SAG Awards were no exception. J. Lo was a vision in a black Valentino gown that was anything but basic. It had a bow in the back, similar detail to her Golden Globes gown, but I loved it more because this was more feminine and delicate to me. This was quite honestly my favorite look of the night. 


My favorite thing that I read about Charlize Theron's look was-- look at Charlize, look at Charlize's abs (insert heart eyes emojis). She said she didn't have time to touch up her roots so she wore Tiffany diamonds in her hair. Her two piece outfit was Givenchy Haute Couture-- the silver crop top and black maxi skirt were such a daring choice. 




Oh wow, Scarlett Johansson is absolutely angelic in Armani Prive. Her custom gown featured teal blue silk with a plunging neckline and that red lip was the perfect touch. She looked extra lovely on the arm of her fiance. 



A best dressed list is never complete without Nicole Kidman. She always manages to look like the most beautiful princess in all the land. Nicole wore a sapphire blue Michael Kors gown with matching earrings. Her signature locks completed the look by giving it a vintage vibe. 


Who were your favorites? Leave me some comments below.

Best Dressed at the Golden Globes 2020

Other than Ricky Gervais's monologue the best thing about the Golden Globes was the fashion. Though, it wasn't as tough this year to pick the best dressed-- these ladies stood out!

Nicole Kidman was stunning in a red Versace gown accompanied by date and hubby Keith Urban. White and gold tassel earrings and a gold bag completed her goddess look. #couplegoals


Renee Zellweger made her comeback to the red carpet in perhaps one of the most understated looks of the night. She was elegant in a strapless baby blue Armani Prive gown with matching Jimmy Choo's. Her night was made complete with a win for "Judy". 


Jen Aniston's amazing genes were on display in a simple and sophisticated black Dior Haute Couture gown. The ruffles at the top and the bow at her waist gave the gown a feminine twist while a gold necklace added elegance. 50 looks pretty good. 



 I am a sucker for Prianka Chopra Jonas in this unique fuschia Cristina Ottaviano gown. I love the off the shoulder look on her, her loose curls, and statement necklace made such a bold statement. She was honestly perfect from head to toe. 


Last but not least, and quite possibly my pick for the night-- Sofia Vergara in Dolce & Gabanna. Her whole look was so flawless and well put together. The wine color was so stunning on her; I loved the Lorraine Schwartz jewel details in her dress. The gown was the perfect fit for her figure and a matching purse and earrings completed this look.

Golden Globe Fashions-- Who Sparkled on the Red Carpet?

And now, five days later than I wanted it to be, and without further ado, I present my best dressed list from the 2014 Golden Globe Awards. I will do it in no particular order, and as always, I will not discuss those whose dresses did not hit the mark, those who near missed, and those who missed all together. This will be a positive list--- seven strong and sexy women who sparkled at the Globes.

Now, those who read this blog know that I am not a big fan of Sofia Vergara. Unlike most, her accent is not cute to me. However, I must admit that her dress and accessories were amazing for the Globes. In a sophisticated full black Zac Posen princess style gown, Sofia dared to add a pop or color with an aqua colored Lorainne Schwartz necklace.



Not many people talked about Sofia's costar Julie Bowen, but I will. Julie made a daring choice and it paid off big time. I love the color blocking going on in this Carolina Herrera gown. It looks like two pieces, but it's really one, and it's done seamlessly. I especially love the detail at her waist and how it's a slightly different color than the top and bottom. Her hair is also effortlessly light looking, the style suits her.



Cate Blanchett was elegant in Armani Prive. The detail in the dress is exquisite, especially around the neck. What I like most about the dress is the sheer quality to it, there's also a sheen that makes her sparkle.



What pickle? I really want to know who called the beautiful Olivia Wilde a pickle. I loved her Gucci dress, and I always thinks it's a brave when a woman who is with child attends an event like this. I love this shade of green on her, and I love that the dress is still sexy. I love her curves and I love the simplicity of her hair, it works well with the dress, and did anyone see those heels?



Simple and classic, I could almost always describe Reese Witherspoon this way. She did not fair to impress this year with a light turquoise colored Calvin Klein Collection gown. What I liked even more than Reese's dress was her new hairdo. She looks normal, I think the average woman can look at Reese here and aspire to look like that.




Looking modern Ava Gardner-esque, Kate Beckinsale was flawless at 40 in a Zuhair Murad gown. I can't even believe she's 40; look at her beautiful skin, she is glowing! What do I love about this dress? The detail, the metallic quality of it, the color is gorgeouis (my word for gorgeous!) with her skin and hair color, I also love the way it flares at the bottom. To be honest, this dress and Julianna's dress (up next!) were my two favorite of the night.



Forever the epitome of true beauty defined, Julianna Margulies was a vision in a black Andrew Gn dress with metallic gold detail at the bottom and the shoulders. The gold detail in the dress, along with the earrings, and her side swept bangs really make the look complete. I feel like those are the parts of this look that made it come together. Julianna understands style, but more importantly, she understands well, what looks good on her. This was my other favorite look of the night.



On to the Grammy's and Oscar's!

Emmy's 2013: Fashion Watch

There were several good things about the Emmy's Broadcast last night, it was up in ratings, the highest since 2005. I liked the majority of the people who won last night, including the nominees for best choreography in the broadcast was a nice touch, and there tributes to some of those who passed away in the past year were absolutely touching.

What lacked was the number of stars who were well dressed. I didn't see as many as I usually do to tell you the truth. Each choice I made this year in terms of my five best dressed were easy choices. I've listed them in alphabetical order to keep it fair.

Carrie Underwood looked regal in a princess like purple Romona Keveza gown. She always picks the most flattering outfits for herself.



Julia Louis Dreyfus looked surprisingly well put together in a sequined strapless Monique Lhuillier gown that sparkled like Julia's eye when she accepted her Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy. 




Kate Mara was angelic and modern in white J. Mendel gown; she wasn't the only woman wearing that designer but she was one of the most beautiful. 



Mindy Kaling isn't just funny, she also has a definite sense of style. Her plum Georges Chakra dress flattered her figure perfectly. 



Anyone who has read my blog knows I am not the biggest Sofia Vergara fan, but I can admit when she looks good and last night happened to be one of those nights. Her Vera Wang gown was sexy and suited her personality, red hot!
