AN EVENING AT THE EMMYS 2011 (IN MY HEAD)

So as soooo many others are anticipating the return of Sunday Night Football...I myself look forward to Sunday Night Fashion and this year's Emmy's were no different. Now I'm no E! Fashion Police or Joan Rivers for that matter. I'm just an aspiring fashionista with an open mind and even more open opinion about what's HAUTE and what's NOT when it comes to fashion especially during awards show and last night was no different.

Hosted by the always jokingly funny Jane Lynch- she was absolutely regale and radiant last night

This was just one of several dress changes for Lady Lynch of GLEE stardom

Then there was the color of the evening-RED...although I am not a big fan of this hue- these ladies were absolutely ravishing and I had to rank them high on the

BEST DRESSED LIST

                         Adrianne Palicki                   Guiliana Depandi-Rancic of E! Fashion Police

    

                          

But the best dressed LADY IN RED- had to be Kerry Washington in....the beading..the red lip...the hair-everything was sheer perfection including the dress-LITERALLY

And the best dressed BOYS IN BLACK had to be the MEN OF ENTOURAGE

Nothing sexier than a GROUP of well groomed gentlemen

Then there were ladies in a slight reddish-orange and similar mermaid silhouette that I just had to take notice of

                                                       Nanci O'Dell of Entertainment Tonight

Sofia Vergara of ABC's Modern Family Fame- A Winner of Outstanding Comedy Series

Other Misses with Major Fashion Hits Were:

Amy Poehler was a beauty in this deep ocean blue sequined set

Brooke Burke- take notice of the duo colored under pleating of her dress

This color was a breath of fresh air on Aimee Teegarden

 I don't think I am the only one in love with the newly refined Kelly Osbourne that we have seen in these past few years

Black wasn't just another basic go to this year with a bold mullet skirt worn by Cobie Smulders

and now for the WORST DRESSED-some may agree or disagree or both...but hey I call em' like I see them

 Alan Cummings- Do I really need to explain what's wrong with this picture? Didn't think so!!

With the exception of the hangbag- I don't know what it is...whether the print...the color.. the one shoulder ruffle...the empire waistband..everything about this says "I GOT IT AT ROSS"

In my opinion there is nothing special about this dress...it just looks cheap and basic

She looks like she's going to ACL which coincedently this past weekend....did someone screw up and post the wrong pics...(I'M ON PUNK'D aren't I??)

HMMMM where do I began- the bed head, the tan bed body, the bad posture, the baby bump/beer belly that's not supposed to be there...WRONG WRONG WRONG

And then sadly there is the jawdroppingly gorgeous Julianna Margulies who disappointed me in this space cadet couture which did nothing for her girls up top and was just bad fashion in my opinion

So there you have it- my recap of my evening at the EMMY'S-more to come for Fashion Week!!

SHE AIN'T SLEEP ON MY SEQUINS: ALL HAIL QUEEN B....

And in true fashion form my friend in my head- Beyonce Giselle Knowles-Carter does not and did not disappoint this  Fashion Week 2012. While visiting the J.Crew showcase with equally as fabulous and sassy sister- Solange, Beyonce paraded looking too pretty in an eye-pleasing golden get-up dress by J.Crew and paired with a simple pair of tan Christian Louboutins. B and her baby bump look beautiful and that's why we should all hail QUEEN B...cuz just like me...SHE AIN'T SLEEPIN ON THE SEQUINS and neither should you

TODAY ITS HERE: MISSONI FOR TARGET

Now in the past few years major moderately priced retailer-Target has done its best to stay abreast in the arena of affordable designer digs for us ummmm I'll call it frugal fashionistas. With the launch of the GO International collections and now separate designer collections Target has managed to maintain fashion for the modern woman without melting her wallet in the process. This Tuesday, September 13th will be no different as Target (click the link below) presents:

MISSONI FOR TARGET

A brand built on its signature styling tribal influenced textiles combined with the printed skewed "M's" and bold and bright colors..Missoni has also managed to make fashion statements for Men, women, children, home and now even with the grand opening of HOTEL MISSONI...Margherita Missoni and her family of fashion forwards femmes and fellows have teamed up with Target to bring Missoni to the mainstream and for one can't wait to make my way to the nearest location
