Well, it's awards season, so that means lots of great red carpet fashion. Although I didn't watch the SAG Awards, I was pretty pleased with the dresses. Here are some of the highlights and lowlights of the evening:
TRENDS:
Crayola Hues:
 |
Emily Blunt in Oscar de la Renta, Kyra Sedgwick in Emilio Pucci, Jessica
Chastain in Calvin Klein
|
I absolutely love all three of these dresses. These ladies look gorgeous in bright colors and are definitely on my best dressed list.
Black & White:
In contrast to the bright hues, we also saw a lot of black and white.
 |
Angelina Jolie in Jenny Packham, Emma Stone in Alexander McQueen,
Jane Krakowski in Antonio Berardi, Ashley Simpson in Jenny Packham |
 |
| Tilda Swinton in Lanvin, Kristen Wiig in Balenciaga, Rose Byrne in Elie Saab, Zoe Saldana in Givenchy Haute Couture |
The ladies in white were some risk takers, and I do love to see that on the red carpet. I'm glad that Tilda Swinton is dressing like a lady and wearing makeup. On the fence about the Kristen Wiig's choker, but leaning toward thinking it's cool. I kind of love Rose Byrne's glitter jumpsuit, although a friend watching the SAGs tweeted that it looked rough from the back view. I wasn't watching, so I don't know. I guess jumpsuits generally aren't that flattering to the derriere. I HATE Zoe's dress. Just no. It's like a bad Princess Leia homage. (That's not a dig at Star Wars --- Princess Leia is hot, but this dress is not.)
BATTLE OF THE GLEE GIRLS!
 |
Lea Michele in Versace, Naya Rivera in Naeem Khan, Dianna Agron in Carolina Herrera,
Jenna Ushkowitz, Amber Riley, Heather Morris
|
I think this one's gonna go to Lea, with Naya in a close second. Dianna Agron again disappoints. Her dress looks like something a middle-aged woman would wear to a black-tie wedding, although I think her hair looks kinda nice. Heather Morris: I love black and leather much more than the next girl, but I'm not feeling this high-low mullet dress. Had the dress just continued as is from the hip down, I think it would be pretty cool. Jenna: Again with the weird mullet dress. She and Heather are almost the yin and yang of the weird hemlines --- Heather doing the bad-ass, dominatrix version while Jenna goes with the feminine, floral version. I don't like either. I must say, I'm very disappointed with Amber Riley, as she looked so great during last awards season. I guess the dress is still pretty figure-friendly, but that bow --- eeks.

| Natalie Portman in Giambattista Valli, Jayma Mays in Reem Acra |
Jayma Mays looks uh-mazing in this sparkly black gown, and Natalie Portman is showing off that post-baby bod well in this plum gown. Gorgeous.
WORST DRESSED:
 |
Shailene Woodley in L’Wren Scott, Meryl Streep in Vivienne Westwood, Busy Philipps
|
Ugh. These are just bad. Shailene, that print! Meryl would have looked better if she'd left off the weird piece of fabric and belt and just gone with the dress underneath. And really, Busy Philipps? You're at the SAG Awards, not a backyard barbeque.
