Best Dressed at the 2016 BAFTA Awards

The BAFTA Awards took place the the Royal Opera House in London last night and Hollywood stars were out in full force. Cate Blanchett, who was nominated for Best Actress, showed up and my heart stopped beating. I have been waiting for a moment like this from Cate since the Cannes Film Festival and she finally gave me a drop dead gorgeous look that reminded me why I call her my red carpet queen. Queen Cate wore a custom Alexander McQueen gown which featured a floral embroidered denim blouse and black feathered skirt. This gown was actually a meshing of two looks from the Alexander McQueen Spring 2016 RTW collection, the bodice and the feathered skirt. This gown meshed those two looks together and Cate made it work with much ease. Cate finished her amazing look with black Giuseppe Zanotti pumps and Tiffany & Co. jewelry.
Julianne Moore was a close second to Cate wearing an amazing black and white custom Armani Prive halter mermaid gown. Julianne has the ability to make so many different types of looks work on the red carpet and here she displays classic glamour. I love that the redheaded actress paired this gown with a pair of emerald Chopard earrings. I always say when you go monochromatic that you you should always add a pop of color and the emerald earrings did a great job at that along with the hot pink lip color that Julianne wore with her gown. 

Saoirse Ronan has been very pretty all awards season but she showed that she can hang with the real big style stars yesterday at the BAFTA Awards. Saoirse wore an absolutely amazing hand beaded firework pattern custom Burberry strapless column gown that she paired with a statement Chopard necklace set with 275 carats fancy colored sapphires, 82 carats fancy colored briolette-cut sapphires, 11 carats round shaped rose-cut diamonds, and 5 carats of pear shaped diamonds. Her deliberately messy elegant updo, smoky eye, and Chopard yellow diamond cocktail ring all rounded off a look that finally made me take notice of the stunning actress. 

Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke stepped out on the BAFTA Awards red carpet and she did do in fine style wearing a very beautiful red Victoria Beckham gown. Emilia was a presenter last night and I believe that she chose to go with this gown to not overshadow all the nominees, but she slayed the red carpet. A Jimmy Choo clutch and Tiffany & Co. diamonds finished this look.
 Olga Kurylenko was another of the stunning guests at the BAFTA Awards yesterday. She wore a beautiful white Ralph & Russo Spring 2016 Couture short sleeve embroidered sheer gown with a portrait neckline. I was a little hesitant to love this look because Olga has already worn a similar Ralph & Russo gown before but I think that this is just so chic that I can not ignore it. All the elements of this look from the voluminous waves to the Ralph & Russo clutch just scream glamour and that is why she is on this list. 

On any other woman I probably would have said that this orange lace Erdem Pre-Fall 2016 floral embroidered gown would have been inappropriate for the BAFTA Awards but model Dree Hemingway has such a cool girl status for her sense of style that she makes it work. I can only picture someone like Florence Welch being able to sell this gown to me, but I am glad that Dree brought something different to the BAFTA red carpet. I applaud her for taking such a risk.

We are so used to seeing very flirty and feminine looks from Alicia Vikander so I have to give a round of applause for this custom Louis Vuitton crystal embellished leather gown. Inspired by the Spring 2016 RTW collection, it is not something I would have ever pictured on Alicia but she does it an insane amount of justice. This sexy side of Alicia is something that I am hoping that we will see this side of her a little more on the red carpet.
I had never heard of Bel Powley before the BAFTA Awards red carpet last night but I guess I will have to start taking notice of the EE Rising Star nominee as she hit the red carpet wearing a custom Gucci multicolored striped lurex plisse gown. This is another of those looks that I would not pick for the BAFTA Awards but on Bel, who is 23, made me stop and swoon when I saw her on the carpet. 

I think the biggest shock for me is that I am including Rooney Mara in my Best Dressed list. Rooney has failed to excite me this awards season but I was quite drawn to her oyster colored Givenchy Spring 2016 Couture. It is reminiscent of looks that she has worn recently but I think that this time all her styling was on point. I appreciate that it was something visually interesting and not another basic white, black, or nude gown. 

I am going to start off with saying that I love Dakota Johnson wearing this stunning red Christian Dior gown, but I was a little underwhelmed. Dakota looked beautiful but I was expecting a little more from the EE Rising Star who had been delivering red carpet hit after red carpet hit recently. I almost wish that she had switched this with her gold Marc Jacobs gown she wore last week, it would have caused me to push her up this list a few spaces.

2016 AFI Awards Red Carpet Wish List Part 1

Every year the American Film Institute compiles a list of the 10 best movies and television shows of the previous year. This year this list is chock full of movies and television shows that have strong female performances and we are bound to see the stars of these films and shows on the red carpet of the AFI Awards luncheon red carpet on January 8, 2016. Brie Larson might be this seasons biggest underdog and the one to watch. I am really looking forward to seeing what the Room actress will be bringing to the red carpet. For this event I would love to see Brie wearing this white Bottega Veneta Spring 2016 RTW halter dress. This dress is such a chic and simple look which is perfect for a daytime luncheon. I am hoping that Brie continues to expand her repertoire of designers and this would be a lovely addition. Finish with a pair of simple nude sandals and fresh faced make up to finish this luncheon look off perfectly.
I can't believe I am saying this but I was very underwhelmed by what Cate Blanchett brought to the red carpet last year. I think that this is the first time in a while where I haven't had a single look from Cate gracing any of my end of the year awards. I am hoping that come awards season that Cate finds her footing again as she is set to be on every major red carpet this season. For the AFI Awards I would love to see Cate wearing this Roksanda Spring 2016 RTW ensemble which incorporates a simple sky blue silk blouse and pair of beige desert printed pants with sculptural detail in goldenrod on the right hip. I think that this look is something that many would not be able to pull of but the red carpet queen would have no trouble. This is the type of look that I think Cate needs to get me interested in her again, if she steps out in one more black Armani look I might cry.
I am super excited to see Charlize Theron on the red carpet this awards season. I know that she will undoubtedly be in Dior at all the big events but for some of the smaller event I am hoping that she will dig into some of the other brands that she tends to favor. For the AFI Awards I picked this incredibly chic black Jason Wu Spring 2016 RTW structured dress which features side cutouts and ruffles. I love how this look mixes classic sophistication with a fun flirtatious edge. Charlize knows how to take a simple look like this and make me fall head over heels in love with it. Something like the black Christian Louboutin 'Bareta' studded pumps, casual hair, a red lip, and a Dior clutch would ensure that Charlize slays this look at the AFI Awards.
Claire Danes is another whom I usually love but in 2015 she really let me down. I am hoping that if she takes to the red carpet at the AFI Awards for her show Homeland that she will be back on form. To help her do so I picked a sexy borrowed from the boys type of look. This Versace Spring 2016 RTW black pinstripe dress is something that is sexy and sophisticated, perfect for the AFI Awards luncheon. I know that while some might be tempted to go all Angelina Jolie with their leg and that sexy slit, I know that Claire would keep it classy and just let the leg pop out the split naturally. Finished with a pair of simple black Jimmy Choo pumps and fresh faced makeup and Claire will be ready to hit the red carpet and work it like she hasn't worked on in a long time.
If there was a fashion breakout star in 2015 it had to be Daisy Ridley who captured our hearts and the eye of many of the top designers. As she did such an amazing job while promoting Star Wars: The Force Awakens so I am sure that they will send her to the AFI Awards, where the film is being honored. Since Daisy has yet to double dip on designers I am continuing to expand her base by picking this black Etro Spring 2016 RTW ensemble which consists of a floral printed leather bodice and a tiered eyelet hem skirt. With the caliber of looks that Daisy has been putting out I could see many being bored with this type of look, but I think that the visual interest on the blouse is perfect for this type of more casual type of a red carpet. Finished with soft curls, a pink lip, and a pair of gold Christian Louboutin pointed toe pump and this is a perfect AFI Awards red carpet look.
Emilia Clarke was up and down last year and I am hoping that if she attends the 2016 AFI Awards to represent Game of Thrones that she starts the year on the right foot. What better way to do that than wearing this aqua blue Roland Mouret Spring 2016 RTW flared dress. Emilia is not one who is afraid of a bold color and since the AFI Awards are handed out during a luncheon this more laid back style is totally appropriate. The dress is classic and has a sense of flirtation with it's flared skirt. I would just add a pair of gold Stuart Weitzman 'Nudist' sandals and a pink lip to finish this look off.

#Emmys2015: Oustanding Actress in a Supporting Role in a Drama Nominee Wish List

The performance that Christina Hendricks gave in the  final season of "Mad Men" is looking like it is going to earn her her first Emmy Award. Having been nominated 5 times before hopefully sixth times a charm for the stunning strawberry blonde actress. I tend to love Christina in a gown and I know that with this being her last nominated Emmy Awards for a while she will be bringing her a game. I picked this stunning purple Romona Kevesa Fall 2015 RTW one shouldered draped silk gown for Christina because it would accentuate her famous curves and just give a fluid silhouette and who can go wrong with a dramatic train? Go big or go home for your last nominated Emmy Awards right? I would add some simple sparkle to this gown via a pair of diamond cluster earrings and a black Edie Parker clutch. Finish the look with a pair of black sandals, old Hollywood waves, and a red lip and Christina will undoubtedly end up on the Best Dressed List.
"The Good Wife" star and nominee Christine Baranski has a wonderful red carpet relationship with New York based designer Zac Posen and I am sure that she will wear one of his creations on 2015 Emmy Awards red carpet. I picked this navy knot front silk charmeuse Zac Posen Resort 2016 gown that features a draped shawl neckline with a knotted detail at the front, long sleeves with pleats at the wrists, and a form fitting fluted silhouette with a train at the back. I love Diane in navy and I think that this gown is different from anything that she has worn on the red carpet before which is perfect for the Emmy Awards red carpet. I would finish this look off with a black clutch, pair of black sandals, and simple diamond earrings to ensure that the dress is the stand out of this look.
Emilia Clarke tends to rock the red carpet and I am sure that she will continue to do so at the 2015 Emmy Awards. The "Game of Thrones" star is one of the few who I can see being able to snag a couture gown for the the Emmy Awards red carpet and I am really hoping that she does. Usually a floor length gown is a dress code requirement for anyone over the age of 18 at these type of red carpet events, but I think that this Christian Dior Spring 2015 Couture strapless tea length embroidered floral lace gown is perfect for Emilia. Since the gown is such a statement I would suggest that Emilia keep the styling very simple wearing just a pair of diamond cluster earrings, a pair of silver sandals, and a red lip to ensure that the focus is kept on this stunning couture gown.
Joanne Froggatt surprisingly won the 2015 Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress in a Television Series over many that were expected to win, will she do so again at the 2015 Emmy Awards? Critics are saying that is highly unlikely but I am sure Joanne will be on point on the red carpet anyway. I picked this Oscar de la Renta Resort 2016 teal & magenta strapless sweetheart gown which features ruching at the A-line waist and a column skirt with raffia embroidery and beading at the front and a back vent. I would keep the matching magenta belt that the gown was presented with on the runway and add a pair of gold sandals and a gold clutch to finish this look off for the Emmys red carpet.
"Orange is the New Black's" Uzo Aduba has what it takes to knock Christina Hendricks off the top and take home this years Supporting Actress Drama award at the Emmy Awards and, much like last year, I am sure that she will be working on top form. Last year Uzo sizzled in a sexy red Christian Siriano gown and this year I am hoping to see Uzo go the more glamorous and froufrou princess route. I think that this peacock blue Marchesa Resort 2015 strapless tulle ruffled ball gown is perfect for a major awards show red carpet. This is the look a winner would wear. Styled with a matching Edie Parker clutch, a pair of silver sandals, a pair of stunning drop earrings, a sleek updo, and a red lip would ensure that Uzo really is the belle of the ball.

I will be live tweeting this years Emmy Awards red carpet and telecast with Kelly from Dream In Lace on September 20. I hope you will follow me and Kelly on Twitter and join in on the conversation! I am excited as this is our awards tradition now, so pop your bubbly and join in the fun.

Chanel Fall 2014 Couture Presentation Wish List

Diane Kruger is a Chanel Couture front row regular and I am hoping to see her take a seat at the Grand Palais on July 8th. Rarely does Diane take to the red carpet and I not love what she is wearing and I think that her donning this Chanel Resort 2015 floral dress and sweater ensemble would be yet another that I would be able to fall in love with. Not many people could pull off this ensemble from head to toe but I think that Diane is amongst those that could. A gold Chanel clutch and a pair of nude Stuart Weitzman "Nudist" sandals would complete this front row ready look.
Emilia Clarke has not sat front row at a Chanel show as of yet which is very surprising since it was Chanel that brought her into the fashion limelight. If Emilia were to fly to Paris to attend the Chanel Fall 2014 Couture presentation on July 8th I would love to see her ewar this white Chanel Spring 2014 Couture floral embroidered cocktail ensemble. I figure that this is a cropped blouse over a strapless cocktail dress. Whether or not Emilia wears the cropped blouse or just wears the strapless dress underneath I would love to see this ensemble on her. A white classic Chanel quilted chain strap shoulder bag and a pair of silver pumps would make for the perfect front row moment.

Runway Report: Donna Karan Resort 2015

After not being thrilled with the Fall 2014 RTW collection, Donna Karan has given me an absolutely breathtaking collection for Resort 2015. I am loving everything about this absolutely stunning collection. This Resort collection can go from the streets to the wedding aisle and can get in basically anywhere in between. While since the launch of Donna Karan Atelier there have been less and less gowns from the Donna Karan runways taking to the red carpet. It would be sin for these creations to not get their day in the light. Stone grey, gold, black, peach, and lemon made this an elegant and breezy collection that would look absolutely stunning on and off the red carpets of the world.

Runway Report: ZAC Zac Posen Fall 2014 RTW

 Ahead of New York Fashion Week starting on Wednesday Zac Posen showed his lower line ZAC Zac Posen's Fall 2014 Ready-to-Wear collection. I love that Zac brings the structure and glamour of his high line to a more accessible price point to more women who can not afford $1,000+ on a dress. A very fall color palette of terracotta, pumpkin, charcoal, stone, dove grey blue, lavender, and snow white mixed with the structured silhouettes of classic Zac Posen designs made for a sophisticated collection. I can picture a host of starlets wearing this collection on the red carpets, doing interviews on talk shows, and just out and about running errands. My four favorite looks and the women that I want to see wearing these looks on the red carpet are posted below. Come back at this time tomorrow for some big news that I have that I am really excited to tell you all but I am going to wait.

2014 Golden Globe Awards: Everyone Else Wish List Part 3

 Really late last night over here on the east coast of the United States the Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced that Amber Heard is going to be amongst the presenters tomorrow night at the 2014 Golden Globe Awards. I am so excited to see what the bombshell sexpot will wear on the red carpet for this event. This grape purple gown from the Oscar de la Renta Pre-Fall 2014 strapless gown with hot pink lining is an absolutely perfect look for Amber for this event. This Oscar de la Renta collection was inspired by vintage Cecil Beaton photographs of fashion by American couturier Charles James. This is the perfect way to bring that vintage glam via a modern route. I would finish this look with the runway pink satin clutch, a pair of simple black Saint Laurent sandals, and a dazzling pair of drop earrings in Amber's ears to complete the perfect look for the Golden Globe Awards tomorrow night.
 Anne Hathaway is the only woman that took home an acting award last year at the 2013 Golden Globe Awards that hasn't been confirmed to return to the event to present this year. I am remaining hopeful because on the fifth was the last time the paparazzi snapped a picture of the actress she was arriving at LAX Airport on January 5th. I am praying that she will take to the red carpet and kinda give me the red carpet moments I was really dreaming of her giving me last year. I think that this girly pink Monique Lhuillier Spring 2014 RTW gown is very bohemian chic and extremely feminine, which is exactly what Anne Hathaway loves in a red carpet gown. I would just pair this gown with some simple jewels and a pair of silver sandals to keep the look as simple and glamorous as possible.
 'Game of Thrones' has really jettesoned Emilia Clarke onto the major red carpet scene as she always steps out and wow's me on the red carpet sometimes in simple ensembles and sometimes in extremely avant garde designs. The moment that Emilia was announced as a presenter for tomorrow nights Golden Globe Awards I knew that I would die if she wore this shell pink Vivienne Westwood Spring 2014 RTW gown. This gown is a classic, architectural, sculptural design from the Westwood house but I am absolutely in love with this gown even though it seems like something that we have seen a million times from the house. A gold minaudiere, a pair of dazzling gold sandals (as they will be visible), and some simple jewelry will complete this amazing red carpet moment for Emilia.
 When the Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced that Emma Stone was going to be among the presenters at this years Golden Globe Awards tomorrow night I might have let out the slightest of fan girl squeals. Emma has always been one of my favorites on the red carpet and unfortunately we did not see a whole lot of Emma last year. This year though I am sure that we will be seeing a lot of her due to her press tour for 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2,' as well as several other projects that will be premiering throughout the year. I hope that she will be starting the year off with a bang tomorrow night. This red and pink color blocked Antonio Berardi Spring 2014 RTW gown is something that not many can pull off and Emma Stone is one of them. Emma usually brings the whole package to the red carpet and I would finish this look with a simple red satin clutch, a pair of red Salvatore Ferragamo peep-toe satin pumps, slicked back hair, and a red lip will make this a a perfect look for the Globes.
 Kate Beckinsale is one of the ULTIMATE red carpet divas and I am really excited to see what she will wear as she takes to the Golden Globe Awards red carpet tomorrow night as a presenter. This white Giambattista Valli Fall 2013 Couture strapless gown with floral embellished peplum would look absolutely amazing on Kate and she would work the hell out of this gown. Kate usually has really good styling and even though I do not think this gown needs a whole lot but some fantastic colored stones in her ears and on her finger as well as a pair of silver Salvatore Ferragamo pumps will be all that this gown needs to finish it off styling wise.
And last but not least we have our last wish for the 2014 Golden Globe Awards! A sad moment, I know, but we have a jam packed first half of 2014 and the wishes will not stop coming. Zoe Saldana was one of the lovely ladies who helped announce the nominations for the Golden Globes last month and I am excited to see what she wears tomorrow night as a presenter. This ice blue Jason Wu Spring 2014 RTW mermaid gown is absolutely stunning. Jason Wu made a gown that mixes this high/low style with high fashion red carpet couture and the one of the few people that I can see wearing this and really making it work is Zoe. Finish the look with a silver clutch, a pair of silver sandals, and some absolutely amazing diamonds in her ears and on her wrist will make this the perfect look for Zoe to wear for the 2014 Golden Globe Awards tomorrow night.


REMEMBER! Tomorrow night I will be taking to Twitter (@FutureStylist93) to dish on all the fashion, gossip, and all the winners and losers. Hope that all of you will join me there and join in on the conversation! Do actually converse with people on Twitter, especially on awards nights!

2013 Emmy Awards: Oustanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series Wish List

Christina Hendricks has not had a good few years on the red carpet. As a voluptuous woman with large breasts and stunning nonconformist curves, she has had a hard time finding designs that compliment her body shape and when the do they usually do not compliment her pink complexion. For the 2013 Emmy Awards where Christina is nominated yet again for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for her role in the hit AMC television show 'Mad Men' I would love to see her take to the red carpet in this wine red Romona Kevesa Fall 2013 RTW gown that would hug her in all the right places and not make her look like she is over exposing or dumpy. Finish this look with matching satin pumps and a matching Judith Leiber crystal encrusted clutch would be the way that I would complete this look to send Christina back to the best dressed lists.
In the past two years Christine Baranski, who is nominated for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for 'The Good Wife,' has brought two very different looks to the red carpet. In 2011 Christine wore a navy blue Zac Posen structured gown and in 2012 she wore a sparkling gold sequined mini dress. And I just think that for this type of an event a gown is a requirement. For this years ceremony I would love to see her wear this magenta Marchesa Fall 2013 RTW gown, which did not appear on the runway but was sold with the collection in pre-order from ModaOperandi.com. I think that this sophisticated design is perfect for Christine who has an elegant look about her. I would have this made to hit the floor removing the slight fishtail hem as originally presented so that Christine would look tall and statuesque, like she is at 5'10", and not short and stumpy. Gold sandals, a gold clutch, and some simple H. Stern jewelry would complete this amazing look for the 2013 Emmy Awards.
Emilia Clarke is one of the nominated actress that I am most looking forward to seeing take to the red carpet. This year Emilia has really gown in her red carpet looks wowing me on several occasions in a bevy of different designers like ZAC Zac Posen, Victoria Beckham, Altuzarra, and Christopher Kane. But for the 2013 Emmy Awards where she is nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for 'Game of Thrones' I would like to see Emilia return to the brand that put her on the fashion map, Chanel. Emilia rocked Chanel for the 2012 Screen Actors Guild and Emmy Awards and I am hoping that now that she has quite a bit of red carpet time on her hands that she will finally don a couture design for the 2013 Emmy Awards. While this navy blue Chanel Spring 2012 Couture might be a few seasons back I would still like to see Emilia wear it as it was a favorite look from this collection that never got snatched up to be donned for the red carpet. A simple satin minaudiere in navy, a pair of navy peep toe pumps, as well as simple Chanel Fine Jewelery diamonds in her ears and on her wrist will complete this amazing red carpet ensemble.
'Homeland' star Morena Baccarin, who is nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for 'Homeland', really made her mark on the red carpet when she stepped out on the red carpet at the 2013 Golden Globe Awards wearing a stunning Valentino Couture gown and I am hoping that she keeps up the best dressed looks. For this years Emmy Awards I would love to see Morena wear this silver Zuhair Murad Fall 2013 Couture strapless corseted mermaid gown. On most this gown would look like a tacky pageant ensemble but on Morena Baccarin I think that this would end up looking like a modern nod to old Hollywood. Simple hair, makeup, and jewelry along with a pair of matching Jimmy Choo sandals would be the way that I would complete this look for Morena and definitely secure a place on the best dressed lists around the world.

2013 Toronto International Film Festival Premieres Wish List Part 2


Emilia Clarke who has become the main face for promotion for her hit HBO series 'Game of Thrones' and it is not hard to see why, she is absolutely stunning and knows how wear clothing so well. Well next month Emilia will take to the red carpet at the Toronto International Film Festival to premiere her latest film 'Dom Hemingway.' Last year Emilia showed her relationship with the House of Chanel most notably at the 2012 Screen Actors Guild Awards and the 2012 Emmy Awards and I am hoping to see her wear this amazing silver Chanel Fall 2013 Couture gown. She has not worn a Chanel Couture creation as of yet and what better platform than a major film festival to do so. A silver clutch, a pair of silver sandals, and some dazzling Chanel Fine Jewelry would be the amazing completion to this amazing red carpet ensemble.
During the 2013 awards season season Jennifer Garner shined as she took to the red carpet in support of her husband, ARGO director and star, Ben Affleck. She wore amazing looks by Vivienne Westwood, Roland Mouret, Gucci Premiere, and Oscar de la Renta. Well I am hoping that she will go back to Oscar for her look for the 2013 Toronto International Film Festival for the premiere of her film 'Dallas Buyers Club.' This blue and white Oscar de la Renta Resort 2014 peplum cocktail dress is what I think that Jenn should grab up for this major red carpet. The only thing that could cause this look not to make it on Jenn is the fact that Anna Wintour wore a different dress with this print to the 2013 CFDA Awards and it seems that when the Queen of all Fashion Media wears a print that the lookbook or runway dress never sees the light of a red carpet which is so sad because they are usually some of my absolute favorite looks. With that said if Jennifer snatches this dress up I would just finish it off with a pair of black satin Salvatore Ferragamo peep toe pumps and a pair of diamond and sapphire earrings and she will have another red carpet hit on her hands.
Julianne Moore mostly stuck to black and white during the 2013 Awards season donning Tom Ford and Chanel Couture so if she is to step out to join her co-stars Joseph Gordon Levitt and Scarlett Johanson to premiere their film 'Don Jon' I hope to see the stunning red headed actress don some color. This seafoam green Alberta Ferretti Resort 2014 goddess draped gown would look amazing on the stunning red haired actress. I have always been a fan of a red head in any shade of green and I think that this gown would be no different on Julianne. Simple gold accessories including a pair of gold strappy sandals and some gold and diamond accented jewelry would be the perfect ways to complete this amazing look for the Toronto International Film Festival.
The main female star of 'Don Jon' is the stunning blonde bombshell Scarlett Johanson. While I am hoping that she will have a great gown at her Venice Film Festival at the premiere of 'Under the Skin,' which will get a feature for its Toronto International Film Festival in just a few days, I think that Scarlett will wear short and flirty and sexy for this premiere during Toronto. If you didn't get that yes ScarJo will be premiering two films during this festival. For the 'Don Jon' premiere I would love to see her wear this light pink Zac Posen Resort 2014 sculptural peplum dress which is flirty and sexy in a very classic bombshell way. I could totally see Marylin Monroe wearing this dress if she were alive and young today. A pair of gold strappy sandals and hair worn up in a simple up do would be the perfect way to finish this look for this premiere.
And finally to round up today's whirlwind wish list for the 2013 Toronto International Film Festival we have Reese Witherspoon who will be in town to premiere her film 'Devil's Knot.' A few months ago Reese was arrested in New York City sporting a dark brown hair color but I think that during TIFF that she will be back to her classic blonde locks that made her famous. For the red carpet I would love to see Reese wear this very cute and flirty Elie Saab Fall 2013 Couture emerald green embellished cocktail dress. I think that Reese has an amazing sense of style and was one of my favorites at the 2013 Academy Awards in her blue Louis Vuitton gown and I am hoping that she keeps it up at TIFF. The runway green satin pumps, an emerald green Edie Parker clutch, and simple diamond and emerald jewels would be the way that I would style this look for Reese for this years Toronto International Film Festival where I am hoping she will wow me.

Emilia Clarke to wear the Resort 2014 Collections

 Emilia Clarke has defiantly been on my radar this year after she broke her steady run of Chanel only looks. One of the designers that she broke away with was a stunning Altuzarra dress while doing press for her hit HBO show 'Game of Thrones.' I think that this blue and white long sleeved Altuzarra Resort 2014 backless dress would be another perfect look for Emilia to wear while out on the promotional trail be it for 'Game of Thrones' or her Venice Film Festival contender 'Dom Hemingway.' Emilia usually looks the part of a glamorous fashion forward woman so I could totally see her rocking this dress with a pair of white high heeled sandals and loose wavy locks so that the focus would still be on any interview that she would give.
 An up and coming red carpet star should also wear other up and coming red carpet stars (no not in the Hannibal Lector way but up an coming celebrities should wear up and coming designers which is what I am wishing for with this amazing black with silver embellishment Maxime Simoens Resort 2014 gown. This gown has to be one of my favorites from all of the Resort 2014 collections. I am hoping to see it on some major red carpet between now and awards season and I think Emilia would be the perfect choice to give this gown its much needed red carpet moment. Finish the look with a black Edie Parker confetti clutch and a pair of crystal embellished Jimmy Choo sandals as well as some stunning Chopard diamonds would be the perfect top off to this amazing ensemble.
The final wish for Emilia is this amazing blush pink Zac Posen Resort 2014 strapless  peplum cocktail dress. Another favorite from the Resort 2014 collections and possibly one with the most potential to make it onto a major red carpet and I am hoping that Emilia will be the one to scoop it up especially after being the date of Zac to the amFAR Gala to Kick Off New York Fashion Week. This would be perfect for a pre-Emmy party or even the HBO Emmy Awards After Party. A pair of gold Jimmy Choo 'Lance' sandals and a gold Judith Leiber clutch would be the perfect options to finish off this amazing ensemble.

2013 Critics Choice Television Awards Wish List Part 1

 Next Monday, July 10, 2013, the Broadcast Television Critics Association will honor TV's best at the 3rd Annual Critics Choice Television Awards. Claire Danes is nominated for Best Actress in a Drama Series for her hit Showtime series 'Homeland.' For this awards show I would like to see Mrs Danes redeem herself after a few lackluster red carpet appearances. I think she can do so by donning this amazing electric blue J. Mendel Fall 2013 RTW asymmetrical gown. I think that Claire is among the small crop of celebrities that could pull this gown off. Complete this look with a pair of two stone drop Diamond earrings, a silver Ferragamo minaudiere, and Jimmy Choo silver 'Cosmic' sandals.
 Elisabeth Moss is also nominated for Best Actress in a Drama Series but for her AMC hit show, 'Mad Men.' I used to love Elisabeth Moss on the red carpet but in the past two years she has really gone off the deep end usually choosing hideous worst dressed worthy ensembles. One color I loved to see on Elisabeth was an emerald green and this is not a color that she often goes to anymore. Well I am wishing that she returns to the color by wearing this ZAC Zac Posen Fall 2013 RTW draped gown. I think that this gown would look absolutely fabulous wearing this stunning gown. Add a gold minaudiere, a pair of gold strappy sandals, and a gold cuff will complete this amazing ensemble.
I had already picked a gown for Emilia Clarke to wear for this event but unfortunately Nicole Kidman snatched up the other Chanel Resort 2014 white gown on the red carpet. Oh well as they say C'est la Vie. Emilia is nominated for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama for her role in the HBO series 'Game of Thrones.' This black and white gown, that I had also wanted to see worn by Diane Kruger, would look stunning on Emilia. Since the dawn of the new year Emilia has been experimenting wearing different designers since she had almost exclusively worn Chanel designs on the red carpet. Although I appreciate that she has started growing her wardrobe I would love to see Emilia go back home to Uncle Karl for her red carpet appearance for her big name events. To add the finishing touches for this amazing gowns I would add a pair of black Christian Louboutin crystal encrusted sandals, a black and silver Chanel minaudiere, a pair of Chanel Fine Jewelry rose earrings, and a Chanel Fine Jewelry cuff.
