BEST DRESSED CELEBRITIES
Amanda Bynes, wearing a stunning Marchesa gown, Kwiat diamonds and Jimmy Choo gold sandals was absolutely breathtaking, and in my opinion the best dressed at this year's SAG Awards. America Ferrera was wearing a gorgeous gray Monique Lhuillier gown, and Jimmy Choo heels, and even though the color is not the most exciting, the design is very delicate and very flattering on her figure, love the lace and broach over the shoulder. Eva Longoria Parker styled a very tight Naeem Khan back bearing gown, which silences every rumour of a pregnancy; the look was completed with beautiful Verdura jewels...love the touch of color with her pink earrings. Most of us would like to see Eva take some risks though, it just seems like she wears the same number, one Red Carpet after other.
Ashley Tisdale was wearing a beautiful, and red carpet worthy, Badgley Mischka Couture gown in gorgeous white chiffon with crystal and jet-pinstripe beading. Christina Applegate is not any less worthy in this beautiful grecian inspired Elie Saab gown with silver embroidery, and Neil Lane diamonds. The talented French actress Marion Cotillard is wearing a stunning pale gray Nina Ricci gown and Chopard diamonds. Seems like white and silver were a big hit on this year SAG's Red Carpet.
Debra Messing wears a beautiful jeweled Oscar de la Renta with Neil Lane diamond bubble ring and earrings. Lisa Rinna takes a big leap of faith with this leopard printed Jenny Packham Spring '08 gown, and with her gorgeous fit body, she's one of the few stars who can pull it off. Rebecca Gayheart is absolutely stunning in this red Marchesa gown, H. Stern earrings and Mary Norton clutch; the ensamble is styled perfectly with a pretty side ponytail.
Marcia Cross picked the perfect shade of turquoise (again) for her skin and hair with this figure flattering Monique Lhuillier gown and Lorraine Schwartz jewels. Kate Bekinsale looks lovely in the soft yellow Luisa Beccaria gown with her soft hairdo and Van Cleef & Arpels vintage jewels. Yellow is also very flattering on a very tanned Vanessa Williams, who's wearing an Escada gown, Fred Leighton diamonds and Daniel Swarovski clutch. It took me a while to decide on her dress, but it's growing on me. For the next red carpet however, she should hide the bad tanning lines!
PRETTY BUT PLAIN CELEBRITIES

It is extremely "dangerous" to take risks on the red carpet, however being too safe can earn you a bad review as well. Ellen Page is an example of how a pretty Zac Posen black dress is classy but boring when not accessorized properly. She should have added some interest with a colorful clutch or interesting jewelry. The look is also a bit serious and matronly for such a young actress. Tina Fey in a beautiful Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti dress , Daniel Swarovski clutch and Lorraine Schwartz bangles could have also benefitted by some color, like red lipstick. Michelle Pfeiffer is stunning and classy in the taupe Versace dress, Christian Louboutin heels, Neil Lane jewels and a Lambertson Truex crocodile clutch, but she could have completed the look with an interesting belt.
WORST DRESSED CELEBRITIES

Given that Angelina Jolie is either trying to hide her second pregnancy or add fuel to the gossip, this Hermes tie-dyed tent dress does absolutely nothing to flatter her very fit figure. Cate Blanchett is literally in full bloom in a flowery Balenciaga gown; I love her pregnancy glow but the floral pattern is just too overwhealming. Jane Krakowski wears a mossy green Catherine Malandrino gown, and even though I like the cut of the dress, I can't get over the detail on the bodice...it's like a bowl of citrus fruit wrapped around her neck!
January Jones' hot pink organza Giorgio Armani Prive' is just too bight and shiny for the red carpet. It looks like a bad prom dress or a bridesmaid worst nightmare. Kate Hudson is wearing a very busy Balmain gown and beautiful Cartier diamonds. The floral print of the dress is just too much added with the eagle shaped design on the bodice; the cut is also not very flattering on her body (it emphasizes the lacking in the "boob department"). The cerry on the cake...or present under the tree, is Sandra Oh; the puffy, shiny and bright version of a traditional Hanbok (Korean dress) is just too much...I believe the big bow pushed it over the edge!
Ellen Pompeo is wearing Zac Posen, and even though the gown's design is exquisit, the fabric is a big turn off; it looks like tin-foil, it's just too metallic! Nikki Blonsky is wearing the most beautiful smile, but that's the only beautiful thing on this talented actress! The dress is a disaster, from the shiny cobalt blue fabric, the intermission lenght of the hemline (which cuts the leg-line and makes her look stumpy), to the off the shoulder neckline (which makes her look more busty). Finally, the men's side of the red carpet : Viggo Mortensen. Even though I love the pin stiped suit and the splash of color on this very talented actor, the sash/scarf dangling down his leg and the vest are just too much and pushes the outfit a bit over the edge! But Viggo is a fashion-daring icon, after all!
Be fabulous,
Ella
