2011 Grammy's: Best Dressed

The Grammys is definitely the event to have fun and experiment with your fashion choices and the celebs did not disappoint! While I wasn't crazy about all these daring looks (see my Worst Dressed list), several managed to wow on the red carpet. Metallics were the top trend of the night as many celebs dazzled in silvers and golds. Many also amped up the drama with gowns that featured plunging necklines, high slits, cut-outs, and super short hemlines. The hair trend was long and sleek as well as loose and tousled; and various makeup trends included cat-eye liner, berry lips, and purple lids.

Rachel Bilson Launches Edie Rose Home For Macy's


Rachel Bilson is back at designing for her Edie Rose line! Instead of clothing, however, she's designing tableware for Macy's. I have to say it seemed a little random, but apparently Rachel has been collecting dishes since she was a young girl. Who knew?

Explaining why she decided to start the line, Rachel says, "I was on what seemed like an endless search for really cute dishware and tabletop items when I thought it would be fun to design what I was looking for. I have a passion for dishes and thought it would be a great opportunity to design exactly what I wanted -- cute and stylish entertaining and dining ware that is affordable."

The line is aimed "to appeal to the modern woman at various stages of her life, whether she is going off to college, decorating her first apartment, registering for her wedding or simply in need of beautiful items for her home." The pieces range in price from $12-58 and are meant to be mixed and matched. Every piece reflects Rachel's love of "birds, butterflies and all things whimsical," and the entire collection is tied together by a common color palette of turquoise, aqua, black and white.

What does Macy's think of line? “Edie Rose Home reflects a timely aesthetic that appeals to the fashion savvy Macy’s customer,” said Steve Cardino, vice president and fashion director of Macy’s Home Store. “We are proud to be the exclusive retailer of this eclectic and affordable collection that infuses Rachel’s eye for style with everyday pieces for the home.”

Well, Macy's definitely sound supportive. And the line looks promising, but I'll have to wait and see. As most of my friends know, after living with so many for so many years, peacocks have become my least favorite animal on the planet so featuring them in the line is a bit of a turnoff, but even I have to admit the piece below is actually pretty cute.

2011 SAG Awards: Best Dressed

I was really loving the fashion at the SAG Awards. Many of the ladies really stepped up their game and pulled out some real showstoppers. Strapless, floor-length gowns were definitely the trend of the night, as were the colors red, white, and nude. Belted waists were also big. Hair and makeup-wise, we saw a lot of gorgeous tousled waves, smokey eyes, and nude lips. I have to say, I'm absolutely loving these trends!


 #1 - Mila Kunis - Alexander McQueen
Definitely the best look of the night!! Mila looks absolutely amazing and so fierce in this fiery gown accompanied by flawless hair and makeup. By far, my favorite gown of any awards show this year.

 #2 - Julia Stiles - Monique Lhuillier 
Julia looks head-to-toe gorgeous! The ombre gown is killer stunning and her hair, makeup, and accessories are perfect. 

 #3 - Tina Fey - Oscar de la Renta
Definitely the best Tina has ever looked! I absolutely adore the woman, but she usually doesn't have the best sense of style on the red carpet. Imagine how pleasantly surprised I was when I saw her in his stunning gown. So loving this color on her.

 #4 - Hilary Swank - Versace
Hilary looks like a Greek goddess in this gorgeous gown. I love the draping, details, and color. Plus, her hair looks amazing!


 #5 - Heather Morris - Romona Keveza
Heather looks oh so pretty in this flowy and feathery (but not too feathery) gown! I love how soft the whole look is.

 #6 - Lea Michele - Oscar de la Renta
Lea tries again with Oscar de la Renta and this time scores! This gown is so gorgeous and sleek (although I don't know why she insists on showing so much cleavage). She does look like she's trying too hard/constipated though. Smile, girl, you don't want to get Megan Fox-face.

 #7 - Natalie Portman - Azzaro
Much better than her Golden Globes look, this dress perfectly flatters her baby bump. I'm not a huge fan of her hair or her black handbag and shoes, but I'm so relieved there's no giant flower on her chest, I'll let it slide.

 #8 - Rosario Dawson - J. Mendel
What an amazing color on her! This dress is so lovely and I love her choice in accessories!

 #9 - Claire Danes - Louis Vuitton
She looks so sweet and pretty, and I like the risk she took in choosing a dress with a print. 

#10 - Valerie Bertinelli 
Great hair, great makeup, great dress. I honestly can't believe this woman is over 50, she looks fabulous.

2011 SAG Awards: Worst Dressed

For this awards show, I decided to post the Worst Dressed list first. Figured I'd get the bad/blah out of the way first. As always, comment and let me know if you agree or disagree!

#10 - Jenna Fischer - Fendi
I like her makeup, but the dress is simply too boring and shapeless (a common problem of the night).

#9 - Edie Falco - Carolina Herrera
Once again, I like the makeup and there's nothing particular wrong with the dress, it just suffers from being a bit blah and underwhelming.

#8 - Angie Harmon - Monique Lhuillier
I actually love this pink color with her skintone but the whole thing is just a little too much, too young, and too feathery. Plus, it brings to mind images of Bjork and that's never a good thing.

 #7 - Helena Bonham Carter - Marc Jacobs
A HUGE improvement over the Golden Globes! And she's actually wearing matching shoes! Her intentionally bizarre style, however, still lands her on my worst dressed list.

#6 - Mariska Hargitay
She looks great from the neck up, but this purple gown is too simple, too shapeless, and too...blah.

#5 - Melissa Leo
This dress makes her look like a shiny robot... or an alien. The cut is not flattering to her figure at all and makes her appear boxy.

#4 - Kate Mara - Herve Leger by Max Azria
Here is a gown that seriously did not translate well off the runway. I love Herve Leger but this dress is almost hard to look at. Just no.

#3 - Christina Hendricks - L'Wren Scott
She looks like a vampire who just got out of bed and slipped on their bathrobe. The dress does nothing to flatter her curves and the makeup is way too severe.

#2 - Jane Lynch - Ali Rahimi
What is Jane doing in this horrible prom dress? The color looks great on her, but other than that, it looks cheap, odd, and in need of an ironing.

 #1 - Paz de la Huerta
Hands-down, worst look of the evening. I can't find anything redeeming about this outfit.
