Emmy Awards Fashion: Best, Worst & You Decide

Today we interupt the usual Monogrammed Mondays segment to bring you the HIGHS and the LOWS of the Emmys last night.  Did anyone else love the SNL medley?  How horrible did Charlie Sheen look?  What did you think of Jane Lynch as host (ess)?

Best of NYC Fashion Week Part 1

One week each season (or might as well be an entire 12 months ahead of season) NYC is invaded with celebrities, couture designers, fashionistas, people who think they are fashionistas, hieresses & all other walks of life for viewing the brilliance of the world's top designers in Bryant Park.  Now I am by NO means any kind of expert but here is Part 1 of my favorite looks from certain collections.  Seems to me that SPRING 2012 will bring alot of lady like coifs, peplum, lace, nude metallics, brights and bold prints. 

BADGLEY MISCHKA
I LOVE LOVE LOVE these colors and bright prints.  How FUN are they?

CAROLINA HERRERA

CHRISTIAN SIRIANO
So classy yet a little edge.  I want the top right nude dress for me, NOW.

DIANE VON FURSTENBERG

JASON WU
Ummm, no wonder MRS President loves him?!  That pink ball skirt is to DIE FOR.

J.CREW
I will take it all, thank you.  JCREW is always my favorite go-to.

JENNY PACKHAM
Please take a moment and look at her enitre line.  It is well worth the time and I sincerely hope I see some of this this weekend at the Emmys!

LELA ROSE
Another 150% effort for Spring 2012.  These looks are insanely gorgeous and flattering.

MARCHESA
SHUT the front door, there are no words for this gorgeousness and the entire Spring 2012 line.  Marchesa continues to be my favorite "Red Carpet" line.

Dreaming of Emmy Awards Fashion...

I love the Emmy Awards.  Why?  Not only do I get to see all of my favorite TV actors and actresses in one place but OH MAN the fashion is delightful.  Also, they celebrate in the fall and I don't have to wait until official "awards season" in January-March for swoonful Sunday nights.  Mr. R knows the drill.  We start with Ryan Seacrest on the red carpet and watch straight through.  I think he is just happy he gets to look at the likes of Sophia Vergara and Mariska Hargitay all night.  What are they going to wear though?  Not so very long ago I was a little costume design major and literally LIVED for the awards shows and the over the top dresses (now I work in Real Estate, go figure?!).  Pulling from the likes of People.com, here are my very own PREDICT A-GOWN choices with my favorite nominees/presenters.

LEA MICHELE
The GLEE actress plays one of my all time favorite characters, probably because she hits so close to home in my high school years.  She and her fellow castmates are nominated for "Outstanding Comedy Series."

JULIE BOWEN
I mean who doesn't love Claire Dunfey?  She is gorg and hilarious!  She is up for "Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series."

 EVAN RACHEL WOOD
Four Words: BAD ASS RALEIGH CHICA
She is nominated for her work in "Mildred Pierce."  Let's hear it for the hometown lady!  PS, I miss her terribly in True Blood...

 DIANNA AGRON
Quinn Fabre is a devious but beautiful and caring character.  Stunning!!!!
She joins Lea Michele and the cast of "Glee" for their nominations.

KATE WINSLET
Hello Miss Titanic...have loved her since the Rose days.  She is nominated for her starring role in "Mildred Pierce."

GWYNETH PALTROW
One of my favorite "Glee" guest stars...one of Hollywood's most beautiful!!
