SAG Awards

The SAG Awards took place this past weekend on January 18th. Among the many nominees some of the winners were the cast of American Hustle for outstanding performance by a cast, Matthew McConaughey for outstanding performance as male actor in a leading role, and Lupita Nyong'o for outstanding performance as a female supporting role. While the award show went quickly and the awards were well deserved, what everyone was really paying attention to was the red carpet arrivals. This red carpet definitely brought some unpredictable and surprising looks this year and started the awards season off with a bang. Stars like Kerry Washington and  Julia Roberts brought innovative looks with crop tops and jumpers. I think this sets the tone for a great year of fashion to look forward to!

My Best Dressed Nominees:

          Lupita Nyong'o
               Gucci

            Saundra Bullock
                    Lanvin
           Sophia Vergara
        Donna Karen Atelier




Lupita is the new kid on the block but she definitely came to show out. Her floor length Gucci gown had a artistic neckline that made the simple dress look fun. Her fresh face with fierce blue eye shadow worked well with the dress. Lupita did very well for her first award show and definitely set the bar high. Everyone will be expecting great things from her.

Sandra killed it as always. I am always amazed by how she never ages. She has definitely found the fountain of youth everyone is searching for. Her beautiful Lanvin gown has a high slit that shows off her tone legs that looks great in her cute pep toe heels. Her simple hair and natural makeup gives her a flawless and easy look. The only thing is I wish she had a nice necklace to top off the look.

We always expect Sofia to bring it being the hot star she is. She did not let us down on the red carpet wearing Donna Karan Atelier. The bejeweled floor length gown had a low back that caught the eye of everyone. Her glamorous necklace added a little to much for me. I would have preferred a smaller more simple necklace because she already has a powerhouse gown.

Best Dressed Winner:

    Amy Adams
    Antonio Berardi 


This 39 year old American Hustle star had best dress in my opinion. Her floor length dress made by Berardi made everyone's mouth hit the ground. The one shoulder is so fierce but is not overbearing as well as that slit and low V-neck gives a little peep show. The belt brings her waist in to look slim and elegant. Her hair and the hot red lipstick gave her a Old Hollywood look that was timeless for the SAG Awards. I think this look was the perfect balance of elegance and sex appeal.



My Worst Dressed:
            MAYIM BLAIK

I think the question is not where did Mayim go wrong, but instead when did she go right? The lace top with a turtle-neck neckline is very unflattering and the lavender cloth seems to just be stuck on there. It is not hemmed correctly as you can see it is floor length in some places and not others. The train is uneven and lacks grace. Her hair looks like bed head, just simply undone. Overall the dress is just unfortunate, better luck next time Mayim.
