Emmy Awards 2014 Best Dressed

Morning folks!

I'm stuck in an airport for 3 hours, so what better time to present my favourite looks from last nights Emmy Awards!! There were a lot of fresh whites, vibrant reds and deep royal blue's to be seen last night. These are my personal favourites from the evening.

1. Natasha Lyonne

This Orange Is The New Black inmate scrubs up very well. The colour really compliments her hair and I love the flirty hemline.

2. Alicia Quarles

What really caught my eye with this dress is the checkerboard velvet detail on the skirt. It brings a great modern balance against the vintage lace.

3. Keltie Knight

Another lacey number, but check out the buttoned open back detail. This is both sophisticated and sassy!

4. Amanda Crew

This is incredibly elegant and Amanda has taken the attention away from the dress with over-the-top accessories. Her plain white nails and dark blue ring really complete this outfit.

5. Lena Dunham

I am always excited to see what Lena brings to these big red carpet events. I love that she takes risks and I'm really digging her new lighter do. She may not be conventional, but she's a hell of a lot of fun!

6. Mayim Bialik

This electric blue colour is absolutely gorgeous. I also adore the cut of this dress, very Grace Kelly.

7. Selenis Leyva

This frilly number is cute and classic. She reminds me very much of Dame Shirley with the short glam curls.

8. Julie Bowen

Such an eye catching print with a slight optical illusion; is she moving? Is she standing still? The deep V and halter neck detail gives it a 70's vibe.

9. Lena Headey

Lena was my Miss Rock Chick of the night in this black pinstriped number. I love the asymmetrical one shoulder and hemline. What's more, it shows off her punky tattoos perfectly!

10. Rose Leslie

Although Rose looks slightly washed out, this is still one of my favourite dresses from the night's event. The colour is beautiful and is styled wonderfully with the navy nails and dark lipstick.

11. Allison Williams

This has such a sixties feel with the big bow feature and the yellow sash adds just a dash of modernism; definitely something I would wear.

12. Michelle Dockery

Our very own Lady Mary brings some British glamour in this uniquely layered gown. Both the cut and colour combination are something quite different.

13. Cat Deeley

Another English rose in this enchanting faded dress which hangs beautifully from Cat's small frame. The colour suits her wonderfully.

14. Laverne Cox

Laverne looks like a Greek Goddess in this draped dress. A dazzling white garment to match that dazzling white smile.

15. Julia Roberts

My woman of the evening, and I think everyone else's too. Julia looks a dream in this bubbly layered dress. She styled it perfectly with matching shoes, and check out those legs!!

Men Of The Evening

1. Jim Parsons

Just for being the awesome man he is for having a photo with this ridiculous dog.

2. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau

My Mr Grey, you know, if I had the choice... 

Couple Of The Night - Adam Levine & Behati Prinsloo

Just look how adorably rock and roll they look together!

So there you have, my favourites from last nights event. Please be reminded that these are just my personal picks, so you may not agree and that is fine. I'd love to hear who your favourites were!

Golden Globes 2014 Red Carpet Favourite

Evening!

Awards season is upon us, starting with the Golden Globes. After spending the best part of 2 hours looking through all of the red carpet photos (and there was a hell of a lot!), I have picked my personal top 10 girls (in no particular order) and my man of the evening. Enjoy!

1. Zooey Deschanel



I love the contrast of the soft and neutral colours with the almost spiky texture. I'm a big fan of Zooey's wardrobe, both on screen and off, and she certainly hasn't disappointed.

2. Julie Bowen



I adore this colour combination, it probably shouldn't work, but it does! The puffed sleeves are super cute.

3. Dame Helen Mirren



Dame Helen looks like a green Goddess in this number. Such a gorgeous colour and it fits her so perfectly.

4. Allison Williams



We all know I love my stripes, so of course I was going to love this! The crossed shoulder straps make it that much more interesting.

5. Cate Blanchett



This is a beautifully classic look from Cate. I especially love her hair, oh so Hollywood.

6. Rebecca Ferguson



Apparently there's a saying 'blue and green should never be seen unless there's a colour inbetween'. I think Rebecca proves you shouldn't trust everything you hear. Wonderful shape!

7. Michelle Dockery



This is a beautifully elegant look from Michelle. The dipped hemline adds a modern touch.

8. Lena Dunham



This dress is big, the colour is bold and Lena is beautiful! She really stood out in a sea of black dresses. I absolutely love that she's not afraid to get noticed.

9. Joanna Newsom



This is such a fun look from Joanna. I really admire the over-the-top frills, but when you're dating Andy Samberg, you won't be boring!

10. Sally Hawkins



Sally looks so sweet and pretty in pink. Her look has a slight 60's feel to it which I LOVE!

Man of the Night - Alex Ebert



This may seem like an odd choice, but I do like my men a little different and Alex is anything but ordinary! He's wearing a wonderful waistcoat and just check out that Peter Pan collar! My Mother is probably slightly worried about the next boyfriend I bring home...

I hope you enjoyed my picks. These are just my own personal favourites, so obviously some of you will disagree. I'd love to know who your favourites were!
