SAG Awards: best dressed

Ding ding, round two! As awards season edges ever closer to the big one (the Oscars, duh) the runners and riders had another chance to show off their red carpet wares at the SAG awards this weekend.

So who came out on top?

Amy Adams in Antonio Berardi

I love a good cobalt dress and this is a good cobalt dress. Perfect fit + interesting cutouts + fantastic old Hollywood styling = best of the night for me.

Lupita Nyong'o in Gucci

All hail Queen Lupita of Awardsseasonland. The colour is perfect, the fit is spot on, the embellished neckline is stunning and the styling is so cool. I can't even imagine how fabulous her Oscars gown is going to be!

Helen Mirren in Escada

I mean, does Helen Mirren ever look bad? No, no she doesn't. This dress is her typical age appropriate and glamorous best. Love the fuss free styling too, something that a dress with this much embellishment always looks better with.

 

Morena Baccarin in Monique Lhuillier

Again with the beautiful cobalt. I love this look for its old school simplicity. The colour, the fit and the beautiful draping - not too mention some incredible curves - are totally doing it for me.

 

Jennifer Lawrence in Christian Dior Couture

As previously stated, I'm not a huge fan of the J-Law/Dior collaboration. Most of the time this is because I find the Dior looks age the divine Miss Lawrence. This one I love though. It's simple, sexy, glamorous and modern. Plus the styling is fab.

Style crush du jour: Jennifer Lawrence

I'll confess I don't really know much about latest It film The Hunger Games. I know it's based on a book. I know male lead Liam Hemsworth is hot (not as hot as his brother Chris, of Thor fame, though). And, I know female lead Jennifer Lawrence is a) a great actress, b) gorgeous and c) one of the best dressed people around at the moment.

That last point is the one that's impressed itself on my mind the strongest. Her wardrobe for the promotional tour has been jaw droppingly good. Let's take a walk through some of the best bits (to date).

Starting strong:

At the world premiere of the film in Prabal Gurung. I think the word I'm looking for is fierce.

Still going for gold:

Same colour, totally different style. Ladylike in Ralph Lauren at the UK premiere.

And now for something completely different...

Looking completely sultry in Tom Ford at the Paris premiere. Proof that the right LBD is just as effective as the most extravagant evening gown. Love the poker straight hair and crimson lips too. Smoking hot!

But, y'know, sometimes you do just want to wear an extravagant gown. Enter Marchesa.

If you're going to go for extravagant then who better than Marchesa to provide it? Love the matchy matchy red shoes too.

Time for my personal highlight. The next three beauties were worn on the same day. (I want her life.)

1) Keeping it simple in Raoul for an appearance on Letterman. The perfect LBD strikes again.

2) Back in Prabal Gurung to leave Letterman. The gold lace on this is lush.

3) Flashing a bit of flesh but keeping it classy in gorgeous green Calvin Klein. The cut and colour of this dress are so perfect for her shape and colouring. Also? Boob envy. Just saying.

And I'm sure there are more to come, but that's for another blog post. Let's just hope the film is as good as her wardrobe!
