#Oscars 2016: Presenter Wish List Part 2

I think that at the Academy Awards on Sunday night that one of the stars that I am most excited to see out on the red carpet is newbie Daisy Ridley. Daisy has been killing it on the red carpet since bursting onto the scene with the promo tour for Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and killing every single one of her looks from the most coveted designers. Daisy can have her pick of designers but Sunday for the main show I would most love to see her in Giambattista Valli. For her first Oscars I would love Daisy to show up with a princess moment and I think that this royal blue and white Giambattista Valli Spring 2014 Couture floral embroidered peplum ball gown. While Daisy could have a custom look or anything off of a current runway but I think that this gown needs a red carpet moment and I think it would be the perfect red carpet moment for Daisy at her first Oscars. Complete the look with a chic updo, light pink lip, diamond and sapphire cluster earrings, a diamond bracelet and a pair of blue sandals to just ensure that Daisy lets this gown do all the talking on the red carpet.

Julianne Moore won the Best Leading Actress trophy at the Academy Awards last year and will be returning to the Oscars stage Sunday as a presenter. Julianne has some of the best red carpet style and I am really hoping that she will blow me away on Sunday. I would love to see Julianne show off her sexier side by wearing this wine Valentino Spring 2016 Couture pleated velvet gown which featuring a daring plunging neckline. While the deep neck is not something that Julianne usually wears on the red carpet I know that she is one that could make this gown come alive on the Oscars red carpet. Julianne has such a way with clothes that she almost always excites (she was last years red carpet diva after all). I think that the neckline makes takes this classic style gown into a more modern zone. The styling of this look is key, while most would take this open neck as an opportunity to rock a statement necklace I don't think that is what Julianne should do. All that is needed to finish off this look is a chic updo, a nude lip, diamond cluster earrings, a gold clutch, and a pair of gold sandals.

Olivia Munn hosted the 2016 Academy Scientific and Technical Awards earlier this month and Sunday will be on hand to report about the festivities during the Academy Awards telecast on Sunday night. After her hosting duties Olivia was spotted front row at the Michael Kors Fall 2016 Presentation during New York Fashion Week. I was immediately drawn to this silver sequined cocktail dress with car wash pleats from the collection. My first thoughts on this dress was not how beautiful of a cocktail look it is but "WOW that would make an amazing Oscars gown." So I started to think who could wear it and when I saw Olivia was front row I decided that it would be a perfect fit. Add a bold red lip, wavy updo, a silver box clutch, a pair of silver sandals, and diamond cluster earrings to this modified gown and I think Olivia will have a major Oscars red carpet moment.

Patricia Arquette, who's returning to the Oscars stage after winning Best Supporting Actress last year, usually shows up on the red carpet wearing looks that aren't special enough for the event that she is attending. Sunday night I would love to see Patricia walk the Academy Awards red carpet wearing this black and blue Elizabeth Kennedy Fall 2016 RTW gown which features an off the shoulder neckline, short sleeves, a fitted bodice, a column skirt, and a long cape-like train at the back. I think that this gown is special enough to make a glamorous statement for Patricia on the most glamorous night in Hollywood. We got our first taste of Elizabeth Kennedy on the red carpet when she dressed Laverne Cox and Maura Tierney on the Golden Globes red carpet. Since then she has presented her Fall 2016 collection at New York Fashion Week and I can honestly say that I can see this being a designer to watch. I can pretty much bet that what ever Patricia wears she will have a clutch that is just a tad to large, a pair of black pumps, and an unkempt updo. Not exactly how I would style this look. I think that a chic tight bun, red lip, a small sparkling black minaudiere, black peep toe pumps, and a pair of simple diamond drop earrings would ensure that Patrica has her best red carpet look ever, but really do you think she cares about what people think of her on the red carpet? I don't.

Usually I am begging for Tina Fey to step away from the black and into bold colors, and I applaud her blood orange Prabal Gurung gown from the SAG Awards, but for her Academy Awards presenter duties on Sunday I went right back to two things she loves: black & lace. I picked this black beaded lace Marchesa Pre-Fall 2016 gown which features a column silhouette with a scalloped square neckline, a fitted bodice, and tiered ruffles along the skirt. I think that this classic gown would look phenomenal on Tina and give I also think that the silhouette is going to elongate her tiny frame making her appear much taller than she actually is. Keeping the styling in tune with the gown I would add a chic vintage inspired updo, pink lip, diamond cluster earrings, swap the lookbooks black clutch for a gold embellished Marchesa clutch, and finish with a simple pair of black Christian Louboutin peep toe pumps to ensure that Tina has a very glamorous moment on the Oscars red carpet.

2016 Oscar Parties Red Carpet Wish List Part 14

We are close to the end of my Oscar parties wish lists, and we are going to go out strong. Emmy Rossum is always one that I am excited to see on the red carpet and she usually steps out for the Vanity Fair Oscar Party, so I am hoping that next Sunday she will be one of the gorgeous women out on the red carpet. I would die to see Emmy wearing this strapless Giambattista Valli Fall 2014 Couture floral embroidered tea length gown. I think that this gown would make for very chic red carpet moment for Emmy on the Vanity Fair red carpet. Old Hollywood waves, a red lip, yellow clutch, a pair of red pumps, and diamond cluster earrings would finish this red carpet look perfectly.

Jennifer Lopez is currently on hiatus from her Las Vegas residency as she judges the final season of American Idol so I am hoping that she will journey to the Vanity Fair Oscar Party giving us life with her red carpet moment. I have been wanting to see Jennifer wearing this silver Zuhair Murad Fall 2014 Couture long sleeve embellished gown since it first took to the runway. Since she is not going to the main show why not wear it for the party? I think that this gown mixes classic JLo sexy with high glam which makes it a perfect look for an Oscar night red carpet. Sultry styling via old Hollywood waves pushed over one shoulder, a silver clutch, a pair of silver pumps, diamond cluster earrings, and a red lip would ensure that JLo kills the red carpet.

Lea Michele is one of the celebrity co-chairs for the Elton John AIDS Foundation Oscar Viewing Party and I gotta say that I am kinda not looking forward to seeing her. In the past year or so Lea has not delivered anything on the red carpet that has made me stop and take notice. I would love to see her wearing this ruby red Elie Saab Fall 2013 Couture strapless embellished cocktail dress. Lea will most likely show up on the red carpet in some gown but I think that this cocktail ensemble is a perfect look for Oscar night. One can get away with shunning a gown for an Oscar party red carpet if it is avant garde or haute couture. Keeping the styling low key is the most important part of keeping this look perfect. I would have a pair of dyed to match ruby red satin peep toe pumps, a diamond bracelet, red lip, and a pair of diamond drop earrings on hand to ensure that Lea has a wow moment.

After appearing at the Academy Governors Awards late last year and appearing on the cover of the 2016 Vanity Fair Hollywood Issue, I am betting that Rachel Weisz is at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party next Sunday night. Rachel is one that I loved seeing on the red carpet last year and I hope that love continues on Oscar night. I picked this hot off the runway purple velvet Ralph Lauren Fall 2016 RTW strapless gown for Rachel as I think that it would give us a chic modern interpretation of old Hollywood glamour. Classic styling including a chic updo, a red lip, black clutch, a pair of black pumps, and a statement diamond necklace would finish this look off perfectly for Rachel.

Riley Keough brings cool girl chic to every red carpet that she steps onto. I am hoping that the Mad Max: Fury Road actress will be out on the Vanity Fair red carpet next Sunday. I would love to see Riley walking the red carpet in this Altuzarra Fall 2016 RTW sequined red and black handkerchief gown. It would take a woman with a very relaxed type of glamour to make this gown work on the red carpet and Riley has that type of red carpet persona. Blown out waves, a dark red lip, and black pumps would ensure that Riley kills the Vanity Fair red carpet.

2016 Oscar Parties Red Carpet Wish List Part 9

Ciara has been out on every major awards show red carpet over the past year and is expected to be out on Oscar night at the Elton John AIDS Foundation Oscar Viewing Party gala as she is one of the events many celebrity co-chairs. While almost every single red carpet look that Ciara has worn on the red carpets recently has been Alexandre Vauthier I would most love to see Ciara wearing this green Akris Pre-Fall 2016 sequined gown with her favored sexy high thigh split as well as a bodice splice. This is a perfect look for a music star out on the red carpet on Oscar night as it mixes that edge you get from music and the glamour of a film red carpet. A pair of simple black sandals, hair styled in a sleek low ponytail (like the lookbook), a pair of diamond cluster earrings, and red lip would ensure that this is a major look for Ciara on the Elton John red carpet.

Last years Oscar winner Julianne Moore is presenting at the ceremony and I am sure that we will have an amazing moment on the main stage red carpet but I am also hoping that she changes for the Vanity Fair Oscar Party after the show. Julianne has always been one of my favorite red carpet ladies and I am truly hoping that she gives me two looks on Oscar night. For the Vanity Fair party I picked this amazing black Versace Pre-Fall 2016 grommet embellished gown which features long sheer sleeves. This is a type of look that I would expect to see on the back of someone who went big on the main red carpet and want to slip into something a little more comfortable to party in for the Vanity Fair party. A black clutch, black pumps, a pair of statement stone earrings, and a red lip would finish this perfect after-party look for Julianne.

Naomi Campbell is another that is on the long list of co-chairs for the Elton John AIDS Foundation Oscar Viewing Party and I am sure that the supermodel will be out on the red carpet. For big red carpet outings Naomi has a small arsenal of designer friends like Donatella Versace, Azzendine Alaia, and Riccardo Tisci to whom she looks to dress her. I am going with Riccardo Tisci and this beige Givenchy Spring 2016 Couture draped gown which featured crocodile tin on the stomach cutout. I am not usually a fan of Naomi on the red carpet. There is almost always something that I find I have a problem with, usually her hair. I would recommend to Naomi that she wear the sleeves of this gown up on her shoulders instead of off the shoulder, add old Hollywood waves pushed over one shoulder, add a red lip and some gold sandals to ensure that this is a beautiful red carpet moment for Naomi for the Elton John party (and who knows maybe for Vanity Fair as well.)

Nina Dobrev is always a fixture at awards show parties and next Sunday night I would put my money on her attending the Elton John party. Nina has been on the Elton John red carpet almost every year since she burst on to the red carpet scene. I would love to see the former Vampire Diaries star to show up for Elton wearing this white J. Mendel Pre-Fall 2016 black & white corded halter gown. This is a very Nina gown. She loves a classic yet dramatic look, and if this gown is not on the main stage I would love to see Nina wearing it for Elton John. Such a glam look needs very classic styling with a black Rauwolf clutch, black Christian Louboutin sandals, a red lip, and diamond drop earrings to ensure that Nina has a Hollywood moment on Hollywood's biggest night.

I certainty am expecting to see Rita Ora out on the red carpet at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party as I don't think Rita has ever met a red carpet that she hasn't liked. I would love to see Rita bring some DRAMA to the Vanity Fair party red carpet wearing this black and white Giambattista Valli Spring 2016 Couture tea length ball gown. This is a majorly dramatic moment and I think that Rita would be one of the best choices to give this gown to to have the total impact that I can picture it having on a red carpet. The styling would have to be on point to ensure that this doesn't go into costume territory. A pair of black sandals, a sleek updo, red lip, and diamond cluster earrings would make this look an amazing red carpet moment for Rita on Oscar night.

2016 Oscar Parties Red Carpet Wish List Part 7

First off I would like to apologize for posting wish lists earlier without any details. I have been really busy with my new job and trying to keep on top of NYFW and the Grammy Awards that I just didn't get to writing the content for those posts and didn't want the lists to fall to the wayside either. Continuing on with my Oscar night wish lists is my wish for Daisy Ridley. Daisy has been the darling of fashion since she burst on to the scene in some of the most coveted brands with the promo tour for Star Wars: The Force Awakens. We will first see Daisy on the red carpet at the main ceremony as one of the nights presenters but I am hoping she does a quick change for the after parties. After what I am sure will be a very classic look on the red carpet at the ceremony I would love to see Daisy change directions and wear something a little edgier for the Vanity Fair party. I think that this navy lace Christopher Kane Pre-Fall 2016 gown which features high neck, neon orange tape details and sequin floral embroidery would be an amazing look for Daisy to give on the after party red carpet. It would take a very confident person to make this gown work on the red carpet, and though she might be new to Hollywood Daisy has the confidence to make it work. I would complete the look with a sleek bun, an orange clutch, navy peep toe pumps, diamond cluster earrings and a smokey eye to ensure that this is a major moment on the Vanity Fair red carpet.

Emma Stone is always a favorite for me when it comes to her red carpet style and I am hoping that she will be out on Oscar night despite the fact that she is not presenting or nominated. I can most see Emma going to the Vanity Fair part and since it would just be a night of fun for her I picked this amazing Marc Jacobs Spring 2016 RTW gown for her to wear on the red carpet. I love that this gown reminds me of a shirt dress and the print, which looks like it has been dropped in bleach, makes for a perfect relaxed but still elegant red carpet look. I think that Emma would show up in either a relaxed look like this or in some sort of couture cocktail ensemble. A wavy updo, a red lip, silver clutch, silver peep toe pumps, and some killer diamond drop earrings would finish this relaxed glam look off perfectly for this red carpet for Emma.

Gugu Mbatha-Raw has been another of my absolute favorites to see on the red carpet and she has been recently picking up a bit of steam in Hollywood so I would not be surprised to see her on the red carpet at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party, especially since she is one of the stars of the magazines annual Hollywood issue. I would love to see the actress, whom favors very feminine looks, to choose this peachy pink Elie Saab Fall 2012 Couture gold embroidered gown. I have long been perplexed as to why this gown has not seen the light of a red carpet despite it being something that I can actually picture quite a few actresses in Hollywood wearing, maybe just looking for the perfect woman. Gugu would float down the red carpet at the Vanity Fair party in this feminine and elegant gown. A chic updo, fresh faced makeup, and a pair of gold pumps would be the only things I would add to make this a perfect red carpet outing for a gown the most definitely deserves it.

There has not been a single Jane Fonda red carpet moment that I have liked since her electric blue Atelier Versace during the Cannes Film Festival last year and I am hoping that come Oscar night at she will finally redeem herself. Instead of going to the usual suspects of Versace, Saint Laurent, or Balmain I went with an unexpected (and probably highly unlikely) choice with this Pamella Roland Pre-Fall 2016 gold sequin long sleeve gown which  featured 3D gold floral embellishment. I think that this is the look that would make me love a Jane Fonda moment again on the red carpet. It embodies everything that I love in her style, it is mature but sexy and statement making. I am really hoping that whatever slump that Jane is in with her red carpet style choices ends before she heads back to Cannes in May.

Finally for today I have my wish for Kate Beckinsale who is always one that knows how to bring drama to the red carpet. I would kill to see Kate rock the red carpet in this white and pink Giambattista Spring 2014 Couture strapless floral printed, knotted waits mermaid gown. Kate is the queen on this silhouette on the red carpet and I think that she would be one of the few who would do this gown justice on the Vanity Fair party red carpet. I have heard that the placement of the print on this gown likens it to a used tampon but I think that is just people that don't appreciate haute couture styling and Kate is one who does. An elegant updo, pink lip, dazzling diamond drop earrings, and silver sandals would complete this look to perfection.

2016 BAFTA Awards Red Carpet Wish List Part 1

I am already anticipating all of the glamour that will be on the red carpets this weekend as the Pre-Grammy Awards parties will be in full force and then there are the BAFTA Awards on Sunday night. I love this weekend because you really see the difference from film and music red carpets. I am putting my money on the BAFTA Awards being the more glamorous of the events. I would love to see Best Leading Actress nominee Alicia Vikander give a nod to the era of her film The Danish Girl by wearing this red Valentino Spring 2016 Couture gown. The moment that I saw this gown come down the runway I immediately pictured Alicia wearing this gown on the red carpet, and since I am sure that she won't wear anything other than Louis Vuitton for the Oscars why not wear this stunning creation at the BAFTA Awards. This gown would just hang on Alicia with such a relaxed effortless glamour that I would die from how glamorous she is. Finish the look with a pair of gold Louis Vuitton sandals, a vintage inspired updo, and classic makeup and this will for sure be a best dressed look on the red carpet at the BAFTA Awards.

I am not sure if Angelina Jolie will step out on the red carpet at the BAFTA Awards on Sunday night but I am holding out hope since hubby Brad Pitt is nominated as a producer of The Big Short. As many know I have a love/loathe relationship with Angelina as she tends to bore me on the red carpet but I think that this white Elie Saab Spring 2014 Couture strapless flowing gown would make for a stunning and chic moment for her to support her husband at the BAFTA Awards. Angelina does classic glamour with much ease and I think that this gown would punctuate her signature glamour perfectly. I would give Angelina old Hollywood waves, a pair of silver pumps, a red lip, and a pair of diamond drop earrings to ensure that she has a major red carpet moment.

Brie Larson has had two very glamorous modern red carpet moments this awards season so for the BAFTA Awards on Sunday I would love to see her give something a little different. I picked this romantic black and green Oscar de la Renta Spring 2016 RTW halter neck tiered organza and lace embroidered gown for Brie to wear on the BAFTA Awards red carpet. A year ago I don't think that I would have picked this dress for Brie because I would have said it was too complicated for her but she is now starting to prove her red carpet chops and now I think she has the red carpet confidence to wear this gown and make it work with great aplomb. A pair of black satin sandals, a black clutch, Tiffany & Co. diamond earrings, a very chic sleek updo, and a red lip would just add the perfect punctuations to this romantic look.

Cate Blanchett did not give me anything that really blew me away on the only major that she has graced this awards season so far. Her light pink Givenchy Couture fringe gown just didn't speak to me and I was disappointed that Cate did not show up for the SAG Awards. I am hoping that she will make the jaunt out to London for the BAFTA Awards on Sunday giving her the opportunity to redeem herself before the Oscars. I picked this black Giambattista Valli Spring 2016 Couture sleeves draped gown chic features a light pink waist and an embellished houndstooth detail on the bodice. Cate has worn Giambattista in the past and it has been quite the treat and I think this classic glam look would put Cate back in my good graces. Finish the look with a pink Roger Vivier clutch, a pair of black Roger Vivier satin sandals, a vintage inspired bob, a pink lip, diamond drop earrings, and a diamond cuff bracelet and Cate will shut this red carpet down.

Finally for today I have my wish for EE Rising Star Award nominee Dakota Johnson. Dakota has been blowing me away recently and I am hoping that continues when she steps out on the red carpet at the BAFTA Awards on Sunday. With great working relationships with Dior, Saint Laurent, & Gucci it would seem most likely that she will wear a custom gown by one of those brands but I picked this tan Chanel Spring 2016 Couture tea length tiered gown for Dakota to wear for this red carpet. While most would not deem this tea length formal enough for the British version of the Academy Awards but I think that since Dakota is only nominated in the Rising Star category that this is a perfect look for her. I think that with the right styling that this look has the potential to be one of the best. Silky old Hollywood waves strewn over one shoulder, a red lip, a pair of gold sandals, gold clutch, and a pair of diamond earrings set in yellow gold would just punctuate this chic glamorous look perfect for Dakota on the BAFTA Awards red carpet.

Perfect Plus One: Amal Clooney in Giambattista Valli Couture at the "Hail, Caasar!" LA Premeire

Last night in LA was the premiere of "Hail, Caesar!"and while glamizon stars like Scarlett Johansson and Tilda Swinton skipped the red carpet there was no lack of glamour thanks to the plus one's Jenna Dewan Tatum (who wore Ralph & Russo Fall 2015 Couture) and Amal Clooney. Amal showed my why I named her the Best Plus One in my End of the Year Awards wearing a cute, fun, & flirty Giambattista Valli Haute Couture cocktail dress to stand by her husband George on his big night. On most I would say that this dress would be more suited to the younger stars like Emma Stone or Natalie Portman but I think that Amal takes the twee out of this look and just gives me pure sophistication. George is lucky to have such a perfect woman as his wife. Amal shows women that you can be confident, beautiful, stylish, powerful, and smart all at the same time and I think that is part of her draw for me. I love a stylish powerful woman and Amal embodies that idea perfectly.

Runway Report: Giambattista Valli Spring 2016 Couture

When I think of volume, glamour, and ruffles I always think right to Giambattista Valli and he did not disappoint with his Spring 2016 Couture. In his 10th couture season I felt like this collection was a mediation on his previous 9 collections and some of the greatest pieces that he has created over the years and has done an fantastic job taking those codes and turning them into new looks without doing direct copies. When I search the couture collections I am always thinking about red carpet wear-ability and I am extremely excited to see this collection start to show up on the red carpet at awards shows, gala's, movie premieres, and then ultimately the Oscars, the Met Ball, and the Cannes Film Festival. I can see almost every look from this collection on the red carpet but my favorite look was the yellow and green draped cocktail dress (pictured above) and I think someone like Zoe Saldana would be perfect to wear this dress on the red carpet. One look has already been worn for the Sidaction Gala by Diane Kruger (and I actually pinned this dress saying she should wear it!) and I am sure it is just the first of many red carpet moments for this collection. Red carpet style stars like Elizabeth Banks, Kiernan Shipka, Daisy Ridley, Emma Stone, Kate Bosworth, Emmy Rossum, Hilary Swank, Sonam Kapoor, Marion Cotillard, Tilda Swinton, Amy Adams, Kirsten Stewart, Cate Blanchett, Lea Seydoux, Jessica Alba, Selena Gomez, Janelle Moane, Solange Knowles, Alicia Vikander, Brie Larson, Taylor Swift, Gwyneth Paltrow, Lily James, Sarah Jessica Parker, Rooney Mara, & Berenice Bejo are all women that I can picture wearing this collection on the red carpet. 

I have been pinning all the collections on my Pinterest page with my immediate wishes of who I would die to see wearing these stunning couture creations, so to get more of an idea of who I want to wear what from the collections I would head over there!

2016 Golden Globe Awards: Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture Drama Nominees Wish List

Ladies and Gentlemen it is finally upon us! We have come to the time where I start the wish lists for the first of the big awards shows, the Golden Globe Awards. Which means awards season is almost here! The Golden Globe Awards are on Sunday January 10, 2016 which is just a week and some change away. There is a little shake up with this years acting categories as the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which hands out the Golden Globes, decided to run The Danish Girl star Alicia Vikander in the Lead Actress category, where she is running in the supporting category at the SAG and is expected to do the same for the Academy Awards. Neither the less Alicia is bound to bring it to the red carpet during awards season. She has proven herself the most worthy Louis Vuitton ambassador and while it is likely that she will wear a custom gown from the brand I would absolutely love to see Alicia wearing this golden lace Elie Saab Fall 2015 Couture tiered blouse. This look just feels vintage even though it was made for the current couture season and I think that Alicia would look absolutely glowing in this stunning creation. I would make sure that the gown is the focus by styling Alicia's hair into a vintage inspired updo. Adding fresh faced makeup, a pair of gold sandals, and pair of small diamond drop earrings to ensure that Alicia is one that keeps my love burning.

The Golden Globe Awards will be the first major televised awards show red carpet for Brie Larson, though she has been to the Vanity Fair Oscar Party and the Met Gala, so this will be like her coming out party. I picked this black Oscar de la Renta Pre-Fall 2016 sequin and tulle ball gown because it is the perfect type of look that says look at me I am a Golden Globe nominated actress while being subtle enough that she won't over do it on her first red carpet. I usually pick very simple looks without too much embellishment or froufrou-ness for Brie because she hasn't shown me that she can really hold her own and not let a big dress wear her. I think that this is the perfect style of big dress to make me change my mind about froufrou dresses on Brie. I would keep the styling very classic Hollywood with a chic updo, a red lip, diamond drop earrings, a black clutch, a pair of black Christian Louboutin strass covered pumps, and a diamond bracelet to really let Brie shine on her first major red carpet.

As I have been saying all along I am praying to the fashion gods that Cate Blanchett brings something new to the red carpet in 2016 and the Golden Globe Awards are her chance to wow me again. The actress, nominated for her work in the film Carol, is usually one of my favorites on the red carpet so I would die if she showed up wearing this marigold Giambattista Valli Fall 2015 Couture draped, caped gown. This has been something that I wanted to see Cate wearing on a red carpet since it first walked the runway in Paris back in July of 2015. The Golden Globe Awards red carpet is the perfect place for Cate to make this moment happen for me. Finished with a pair of gold sandals, a tucked faux bob, a pink lip, and a pair of pretty yellow diamond Chopard earrings and this will definitely be a major wow moment and would most likely shoot to the top of my Best Dressed list.

Rooney Mara, much like Alicia, is running at the Golden Globe Awards as a lead actress where she is running as a supporting actress at all the rest of the major awards shows. Back in May of 2015 at the Cannes Film Festival Rooney took home the Best Actress award for Carol, for which she is nominated at the Globes for as well. Having a very small black and white box from which she picks her red carpet looks from I picked this black Valentino Fall 2015 Couture one shoulder tulle gown for Rooney to wear on the red carpet. I think that this gown fits right in with Rooney's no muss no fuss style and I can picture her gracefully floating down the red carpet wearing this dress. I would imagine that Rooney would have at least the blouse of this gown lined, but I would suggest that it gets lined in a very nude tone so that you don't hide all of the detail on the blouse (like Keira Knightley did with a similar gown from this collection.) Keeping with Rooney's no muss no fuss style I would just add a pair of black sandals, a red lip, and a pair of simple yellow gold set diamond cluster earrings will ensure that this is a beautiful moment on the Globes red carpet.

Finally for this list we have a look for Irish-American actress Saoirse Ronan. Saoirse has not been on an awards season tour since Atonement back in 2007 and she has done a lot of growing up since then. Now Saoirse is the darling of edgy fashion brands like Proenza Schouler and Rodarte. I picked this lilac floral embellished Gucci Pre-Fall 2016 gown for Saoirse to wear for the Golden Globes, where her work in Brooklyn has earned her a nomination, because of just how classically elegant it is with a touch of the avant garde with the floral embroidery on the the bodice and straps. I am expecting a few wow moments, like the Valentino she wore to the Vanity Fair Oscar Party a few years ago, but this is a good place to start. Finished with a pair of gold sandals, a loose updo, a gold clutch fresh faced makeup, and simple diamond drop earrings and this look is red carpet ready.

I will be live tweeting the Golden Globe Awards red carpet with my partner in snark Kelly from Dream In Lace on Sunday January 8, 2016 starting a 6pm. Make sure you check out Kelly's blog and then follow us both (@DreamInLace and @FutureStylist93) on Twitter. Join in on the snark and the fashion of the first major awards show of the year!

2016 Peoples Choice Awards Red Carpet Wish List Part 3

Continuing with today's 2016 People's Choice Awards wish lists I m going to continue with my wish for the stunning Kerry Washington. Kerry has always been one of my favorite ladies to see on the red carpet (she was another of the ladies who made it on to my Best Dressed of the Year list) and I am sure that she will slay the red carpet next Wednesday at the People's Choice Awards (if she attends.) Nominated for Favorite Dramatic TV Actress, I would love to see Kerry wear this amazing multicolored floral Jason Wu Spring 2016 RTW halter dress. I love the flirty volume added to this dress by the amazing voluminous ruffles. This perfect look would be finished off with a pair of pink sandals and a gold Edie Parker clutch to make it just that much more elegant.

Not many women would be able to make couture work on the red carpet at the People's Choice Awards but Lady Gaga is one of the few that could. Nominated for Favorite Sci-Fi/Fantasy actress thanks to her amazing work on American Horror Story: Hotel. At the close of 2015 it has been a lot of Brandon Maxwell (Gaga's friend and stylist turned designer) on the back of Gaga and I am excited to see what she has in store for 2016. I think that Gaga would look amazing wearing this 3D floral embroidered Giambattista Valli Fall 2015 Couture ensemble which consists of a feather embellished tunic top and a pair of wide leg pants. This is a chic, edgy ensemble is perfect for Gaga who is about the only person that I can picture wearing this ensemble. A pair of platform sandals, chic updo, and a red lip would ensure that Gaga kills the red carpet at the People's Choice Awards.

I am about over seeing Lea Michele on the red carpet but alas she is nominated for Favorite Actress in a New TV Series and is presenting at the People's Choice Awards, so she will be on hand. I picked this long sleeve Zuhair Murad Fall 2015 Couture celestial embellished mini-dress for Lea because I feel like it is where she is with her red carpet style. A while ago I would have had wished for chic Elie Saab or Zac Posen moments but I don't think that she is there anymore. Lea has potential to make for a major red carpet being but she has gotten lost. This would make for a very pretty look finished with a pair of black crystal embellished pumps and a red lip.

Like Lea, Priyanka Chopra is nominated at the People's Choice Awards for Favorite Actress in a New TV Series and is presenting. Priyanka has started to make waves in the fashion world for her bold choices for the red carpet and I am really excited to see what she is going to bring to the table. I think that this mint blue Cushnie et Ochs Spring 2016 RTW silk shawl dress would be a chic elegant way for Priyanka to show up now that she has a following from her hit series Quantico. A pair of black and white Sophia Webster sandals to add a statement and a red lip will ensure that Priyanka kills the red carpet at the People's Choice Awards.

After wowing me in 2014 I was really surprised by how underwhelming Shailene Woodley was for me. I am hoping that 2016 will see her back on top form. At the People's Choice Awards next week I would love to see Shailene, who's nominated for Favorite Action Movie Actress, Mugler Spring 2016 RTW ensemble. I love that this ensemble, which consists of a navy blue sweater with a large pocket and military buttons down one sleeve and a navy metal embellished asymmetrical skirt, and I think that this gown would be event appropriate and fabulous. Shailene is not known for her feminine style and this look mixes femininity with a whole lot of edge. Finish the look with a pair of black and silver Giuseppe Zanotti pumps and simple hair and makeup and Shailene will work this red carpet.

2015 America Music Awards: Hailee, Julianne, Selena, & Zendaya Red Carpet Wish List

Lupita Nyong'o for "Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens" Promo Tour

"The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" LA Premiere Wish List

So far Jennifer Lawrence's promo tour for "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" promo tour has been lack luster. For the promo tour for the final installment of a blockbuster film franchise JLaw has been really letting me down with her Dior gowns in Berlin and London. I have been wanting to see Jennifer wearing this black sheer chiffon evening gown with the strapless white sequin circle cocktail dress underneath. I think that this gown is sporty and glamorous and a perfect look for Jennifer. I was hoping that the Dior atelier would be turning out amazing custom gowns for JLaw in the post Raf world but I am still waiting for a wow moment. This gown paired with sleek slicked back hair, a bold red lip, and a pair of black sandals would ensure that this is a major moment for Jennifer on the red carpet at the "Mockingjay: Part 2" premiere in LA.

Elizabeth Banks its killing the promo tour for this film and I am excited to see what she is going to wear for the final premiere of the film in Los Angeles. The major Elie Saab Couture moment in Berlin and the modern meets classic pant gown at the London premiere and I am hoping for modern glamour at the LA Premiere. Elizabeth wore wearing Atelier Versace for the first "Hunger Games" premiere in LA and I am hoping that she ends this one wearing Atelier Versace bringing her journey full circle. It has been a hot minute since we have seen Elizabeth in a Versace design and I am really hoping that she rocks one since I don't think anyone, except for maybe Jane Fonda, rocks Versace like Elizabeth. This white sexy Atelier Versace Spring 2015 Couture fitted halter gown with sheer inserts. A pair of silver Jimmy Choo sandals, a white Edie Parker clutch, a pair of emerald and diamond drop Chopard earrings, and a red lip would ensure that this gown is perfection on the red carpet.

Jena Malone have a major princess moment at the Berlin premiere of "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" wearing Reem Acra and was M.I.A. at the films premiere in London. I am hoping that Jena will be back on the red carpet in LA on November 16. I would love to see Jena wear this vermilion orange Prabal Gururng Spring 2016 RTW halter gown which is very 90's and I think that Jena would rock this gown like crazy on the red carpet. Keep the styling simple with a pair of gold sandals, a gold metal box clutch, wavy bob, and some simple makeup so that Jena has a major moment for her last premiere for this series.

Julianne Moore has been slightly off her game while promoting "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" wearing black Jason Wu at the Berlin premiere (which was incredibly chic) and white Alexander McQueen in London. I am hoping that when she steps out in LA that Julianne pulls out all of the stops. This marigold yellow Giambattista Valli Fall 2015 Couture draped cape gown. This is a showstopping moment which is something that Julianne doesn't do while promoting these films but I wish she would as this would be an amazing red carpet moment. Finish the look with the runways strappy sandals, a chic updo, red lip, and a pair of diamond cluster earrings to keep this look from being overworked and Julianne will shine like the movie star that she is.

Broadway star and Tony Award winning actress Patina Miller has rocked a Zac Posen gown or two in her past red carpet appearances and I actually thought of her when this white Zac Posen Spring 2016 RTW flowing trapeze gown came down the runway. I think that this gown is edgy yet incredibly feminine which is one of the things that I expect out of a Zac Posen gown and Patina would rock the hell out of this gown on the red carpet. I would add a white leather waistband to add a little more structure to this gown because I don't think Patina quite has the height to make this gown work without a band and then add a pair of white sandals, old Hollywood waves, a red lip, and a pair of diamond cluster to finish off this look perfectly for this premiere.

Willow Shields wore a Marni gown at "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2" premiere in Berlin that was just a little too grown up for the 15 year old actress. For the LA premiere I picked a much more age appropriate dress for her to wear. I think that this sweet light coral Monique Lhuillier Resort 2016 floral embroidered midi length cocktail dress which features a high round neck with a fitted bodice, a full tea skirt, and floral embroidery throughout. This is the age appropriate look that a 15 year old should be wearing on a red carpet. Willow has her whole rest of her life to wear sexy mature gowns, there are only a few years where she can get away with wearing a dress like this. A pair of silver strappy sandals, a silver clutch, and a pair of diamond cluster earrings would be the perfect accessories to finish off this look for the red carpet.

"Spectre" London Premiere Wish List

I am super excited to see the latest installment of the James Bond franchise "Spectre" premiere in London on Monday. This has to be one of the premieres that is going to have the best fashion of all of the year. So many of the stars of this film are known for their A+ red carpet style and I am betting that this will be the best dressed premiere of the year. French actress Lea Seydoux is expected to attend the premiere. I LOVE Lea's style and I am almost 100% certain that she will wear either a custom Prada or Miu Miu gown for this red carpet. Since I can't exactly show you a custom gown I went through all of the brands that Lea loves to wear on the red carpet and decided that I would love to see her wear this Elie Saab Spring 2016 RTW black embellished gown with sheer panel on the skirt. I think that this is a classy way for Lea to take on the sheer trend. My wish for her and this gown for a major premiere like London is that she would have a dramatic train added to follow her. A pair of black Christian Louboutin lace "Magicadiva" pointed toe ankle strap pumps, a black Prada clutch, and Chopard cluster diamond earrings are the accessories that I would pair with a vintage inspired updo and a red lip to ensure that Lea delivers the femme fatale style that we are all expecting to see her wear for the "Spectre" premieres.

Naomie Harris got her big break in the last incarnation of the James Bond franchise "Skyfall" and her character is one of the few that is continuing on to be in "Spectre." I have loved watching Naomie become the fashion star that she is over the past 3 years and I can not wait to see what she is going to bring to the red carpet for the "Spectre" premiere in London. I picked this Giambattista Valli Fall 2015 Couture marigold yellow caped draped gown with a uber sexy split up to there for her to wear on the red carpet. I really hope that Naomie gets her hand on this gown, but might be a little bit of a stretch since Naomie has never worn of of Giambattista Valli's couture pieced on the red carpet before (but she has worn his RTW.) I think that this gown with its dramatic train is perfect for the "Spectre" premiere, the added sparkle via the faux embellished ribbon on the neck is a glamorous addition. I would add a pair of gold sandals, fresh faced makeup, an updo, cluster earrings, and a gold clutch to ensure that Naomie can make a best dressed list.

Model Monica Bellucci is making her waves in the acting world and "Spectre" is her latest film. I gotta say I don't have very high hopes for what she is going to wear for this premiere on Monday. Monica basically exclusively wears Dolce & Gabbana for her red carpet appearances, and with very little variation. This black Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2015 RTW simple black 3/4 length sleeve gown with a square neckline is something that Monica would for sure wear on the red carpet. I think that this gown is just blah. It is nothing that we haven't seen on a red carpet time and time again. I am going to hold out a slight hope (and I mean very slight) that Monica will give me something slightly more interesting to the red carpet. I don't picture Monica keeping the teal ribbon belt but I think that it would enhance the look. Paired with a black Dolce & Gabbana clutch, a pair of black Dolce & Gabbana pumps, a red lip, and flowing tresses will give a beautiful look for Monica to wear for the London premiere of "Spectre."

Rachel Weisz is not part of the cast, BUT she is married to Daniel Craig (AKA James Bond), so I am expecting that we will see her playing the plus one role at this premiere. Rachel has been making the film festival rounds lately promoting her latest films "The Lobster" and "Youth," and doing so in fine form wearing some of my favorite looks of hers ever. For this premiere I am predicting that Rachel will wear something that is elegant but not a statement (though for the "Skyfall" premiere she did wear Chanel Couture.) I think that this Vionnet Resort 2016 black and white asymmetrical gown is exactly what Rachel should wear for this premiere. It is sophisticated and statement making but also the perfect look for her to wear as the wife of the star of the movie. Keeping the belt, I would also add a black clutch, a pair of black sandals, a chic updo, and a red lip would endure that Rachel is perfectly dressed for this premiere. 

This premiere is a royal premiere and I have read that Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge is expected to make an appearance with her husband Prince William. I have only recently been more intrigued by Catherine's style and I am hoping that she will wow me on the red carpet. I am not expecting the Princess to stop and pose for the cameras but I am hoping that she will give us something that photographs herself while she is walking in. This pastel tangerine Emilia Wickstead Spring 2016 RTW "Caroline" ball gown which features a scalloped neckline, an open back with camisole style straps, and a gathered, full skirt. This gown, designed by a British brand, is regal and elegant and I could totally picture the Duchess wearing this for some sort of official function, why not a royal movie premiere? Finish with a gold clutch, gold pumps, a pink lip, and hair worn up would ensure that Catherine has a perfect red carpet moment at this premiere.
