Fashiongasm: 2010 Emmy Red Carpet

This year’s 2010 Emmy Awards Show was the best ever. I loved it from the beginning sketch with the Glee cast, all the way to the final award of the night. Even Kate Gosselin was funny. Did anyone watch the pre-Emmy shows where all the stars & celebrities show off how much money they spent? Some of them got their money’s worth while others got ripped off. It is true that a fool & her money are soon parted. I think I’ll become a stylist. Doesn’t look to hard after seeing the way some of these ladies showed up. I’ve never seen such bad hair for one thing. Here’s what caught my eye… good & bad.

Yes… these are my four picks for Best Dressed at the 2010 Emmy Awards. Connie Britton may not have won an Emmy for “Best Actress/Drama” but her navy sequined gown was perfect for her body. Kim Kardashian was THE Best Dressed of the evening. She was stunningly beautiful in this flowing Eygptian-style gown. Tina Fey really surprised me. She usually gets it all wrong, but this gown & her hair & make-up are near perfect! Michael C. Hall’s wife & Dexter’s sister, Jennifer Carpenter wore this slinky black sequined gown like a glove. I would die for a body like that. Not a bump of flab anywhere!

The GLEE Girls showed up with some style. Lea Michele is awfully skinny though. She must have starved herself for weeks. Cheerio Cheerleader Dianna Agron went with floral organza & it looks age appropriate for her. Amber Riley picked the perfect dress for her shape. She nailed it singing in the opening number! Scrawny little Jayma Mays has a beautiful dress too, but she could also use some food.

What the HELL is this shit? This wasn’t the MTV Awards… it was the EMMYS! You don’t wear short dresses…. especially ugly short dresses. Arden Myrin, Stephanie Pratt & Terry Seymour are brainless kids BUT Heidi Klum? Was it a Project Runway challenge & this was the best they could do? Heidi’s usually one of the most beautiful on the Red Carpet…. and she was so proud of her shoes. They are almost the same texture as her dress. Her bejeweled necklace is worth a small country. Maybe there wasn’t enough left to finish the dress. (Mode budget is $100)

Worst Dressed includes hair & make-up & these four are a mess! I’m sorry but Christina Hendricks looks like Rachel from Big Brother. Her dress looks like it was made out of my sister’s bedspread, with all that fringe in the wrong places. I actually didn’t recognize her when I first saw her. She has snaggle teeth too! Carrie Preston’s flowing gown looks like tye-dye gone wrong…. & her hair & make-up look like she was grabbing a quicky in the limo. Mindy Kaling & her tulle fabric sticking out everywhere… ugh! It looks like a prom dress from hell. All that hair piled up in a bun & those bangs slicked down to the side… nightmare. January Jones…. superman blue for a starter & it may be Versace, but whoopie doopie… doesn’t mean it’s nice! The hair is the real mess. Did she actually pay someone to make her look like that?

More bad choices with this next batch of four. Did Lauren Graham rip the top of her dress & someone gave her a pillowcase to cover it up? Naya Rivera looks like she’s dragging around her sleeping bag. There’s always one who’s dress looks like an aquarium plant & Emily Deschanel is this year’s winner. Anna Paquin just looks like a matador… Ole’!

Lots & lots of black. The shiny metallic silver & gold from last season were mostly gone. None of these ladies looked bad at all. Most were quite elegant. Edie Falco’s  gown was age appropriate (matronly). Angela Kinsey was elegant except for that crap coming out the top of her bodice. Eva Longoria Parker looked a tad pudgy in the middle. Maybe it’s just the way she’s standing. Hope Davis was damn near perfect except for that stupid strip right at her waist. It made her belly stick out. Julianna Margulies needs a sandwich & her hair needs a brush. Kate Gosselin got rid of those nasty extensions & was looking good. Maybe a little too much halter top tho. Kelly Osborne needs an intervention. The kid is starving to death right before our eyes. She looks like she wearing her coffin liner just in case.

White gowns with holes was also big. Some pulled it off and others… looked a little slutty. You decide. Brooke Burke was the best of this group. She took time to look good. Eva La Rue has a Vegas look… street corner Vegas maybe? Julie Benz ruined her dress with a hole in the side… and her straight ponytail didn’t help. Rose Byrne has an Eygption-style dress kinda like Kim’s but from K-Mart. She another one who forgot to brush her hair.

Pale faded colors just wash a person out. I like Amy Poehler’s gown but I wish it was a bit more colorful. Elizabeth Moss dressed better than her co-star, but the pale draping & that pile on her shoulder makes her boring. Emily Blunt looks like she has packing peanuts stuck to her dress. Lauren Sanchez doesn’t need that hole in the middle of her gown… it makes no sense. Her hair looks great.

Modern Family was a big winner, getting the “Best Comedy” award. The ladies, on the other hand, didn’t score alot of points. Sofia Vergara’s dress looked like a hairy-chested guy’s “trail of happiness”. Sarah Hyland looked lovely, but that was alot of dress for such a petite young lady. Julie Bowen had too many ruffles in the wrong places. Ty & Holly Burrell just looked odd. I can’t believe he looked at her & said: “Honey you look gorgeous.”

Red used to be such a popular color on the Red Carpet. Not too many wore it this year. Those who did kinda blended into the carpet itself. From top left is Jenna Fischer, who looks sweet in her flowing gown. Jenna Ushkowski’s gown looks more like a nightgown. Olivia Munn is just beautiful. I didn’t even recognize Maura Tierney at first. It was the short hair that threw me… then I remembered she’s a breast cancer survivor… BRAVO! I’m very happy she looks so well & I kinda liked her dress too.

Ok… four final gowns that I really admired. These women looked fabulous. Mariska Hargitay never disappoints. She’s always one of the sexiest & best-dressed to walk the carpet & she was again this year. At first I didn’t think I liked Toni Collette’s gown, but then I got a closer look at it & now I love it. It’s fresh & elegant. Kyra Sedgwick surprised me. She usually wears lots of ruffles & this gown was a total change. I loved the color & the texture of the fabric. I just wish she’d have brushed her hair! For some reason I loved Jewel’s lace-fest of a gown. It suited her & her voluptuous shape. With her hair & make-up, she was beautiful and so was the song she sang that evening, while we saw all the dead actors. I didn’t even know most of them had died!

Well that’s it…. what did you think? Was I wrong… did I forget someone you wanted to see?

BEST PART OF THE EVENING!…. just saying…..
