My Top 2011 Award Season Looks

#10, #9 & #8. Fun & flirty: Clair Danes’ Oscar De LaRenta, Amber Riley & Kelly Osbourne’s Armani Prive.

I’m green with envy over all these dresses except Angelina’s.  It suits her, but I’d look like a bore.  Well, actually ANYONE else in the world would look like a bore in that Versace dress.  Ms. Jolie can work just about anything.

Up close on my fave of the green bunch:

#7. Catherine Zeta Jones rocked it at the 2011 Golden Globes: The understated hair, the soft makeup, the earrings, no necklace, minimalist bracelets, deep green detailed dress.  It’s all sort of perfect. Stunning.

Kudos, Catey!

 Nothin’ like a good old, LBD! (Little Black Dress)

#6. I love, adore and would give a digit to wear Evan Rachel Wood’s beautiful, shimmering Elie Saab, Emmy’s gown, on the left.

  I love the clean sillouette, the subtle shoulders, the hug of the dress, the length, the glittery feel, all of it.  I simply love this dress.  I want to wear it, yesterday.

Maria Menounos’ Emanuel Ungaro (on the right) is cute, but I think a bit too understated for the Emmy’s.  Even still, I would rock the junk out of that dress at some fancy schmancy occasion if given the chance.

 Okay, so y’all know I LOVE ME SOME RED.  Would I waltz down a bright red carpet in a bright red dress?

Heckz yeah!

Yay for Lea Michelle’s Marchesa!

Yay for Sofia Vergara’s, coral Vera Wang!

But, I truly LOVE Kerry Washington’s.  It’s so different & so risky!

Up Close:

#5. Kerry Washington in Zuhair Murad Couture.

#4. Jenny McCarthy’s playful little purple number is pulled off SMASHINGLY at this years American Music Awards.  The booties, the belt, the hair –AWESOME.

#3. Preggo, Natalie Portman stole the show at this years Academy Awards.  I don’t love the shoes but you know what?  Who cares?!?!

I love the side swept hair, the deep purple, the maternal glow.  Beautiful.  AND she took home the top prize! Kudos, Miss Thang.

#2. Wilmer, Wilmer, Wilmer.  I love your skinny tie, your gold bracelet, your beautiful face.

His face is “the smolder.”

And the number 1 look is…

(drumroll please)

#1.  Halle Berry –one of my fave red-carpet queens of all time, has a hard time getting it wrong on the red carpet.

I’m loving this sparkly, tulled, glittery, girly, feminine, delicate-but-sexy Marchesa gown.

Drool.  Drool.  Drool.

Halle ALWAYS gets it right with hair, makeup & jewelry.  Her face IS her best feature & she always let’s it center stage.

Work it, my bi-racial sis! =)
