Amazingness Thank you, Paula Abdul I want you to join me in being thankful for what Paula gave us last night. I want you to be thankful that someone came to give us the fun. To give us some pure joy. To remind us that these nights, they are for entertainment, for OUR entertainment. They By Lainey • Sep 23, 2013 01:57 pm
Emmy Awards 2013 Best Emmys Save: Tina and Amy Okay, let’s get the sartorial stuff out of the way first. Tina’s dress fit her impeccably. But it was, yes, kind of a boring blue. But her hair was a whole new colour! And she looked more comfortable than she often does on these carpets. Amy Poehler looks By Duana • Sep 23, 2013 01:49 pm
Thinnification Emmys Worst: Claire Danes It’s partly her own doing, I think. Had she showed up just on her own as Claire Danes, then she would have just been Claire Danes and the hair and the tan and that dress, which is not getting enough criticism, would have been judged on their own. But By Duana • Sep 23, 2013 01:38 pm
Assy Style Julie Bowen took all the ruffles It turns out I wasn’t specific enough on Friday when I hoped that Julie Bowen would stay away from taffeta. I should have also have included ruffles. Too late. She took all the ruffles. She took all the ruffles and forced them to f-ck like rabbits and they multiplied By Lainey • Sep 23, 2013 01:30 pm
Emmy Awards 2013 Emmys Best Dressed: Robin Wright I’m giving it to her. But I have to say, as best dressed goes, compared to previous award shows, I’m not exactly punching myself in the face with the awesome. That’s what it should feel like, right? For the BEST DRESSED? It should make you want to By Lainey • Sep 23, 2013 01:24 pm
Emmy Awards 2013 Emmys Most Overlooked: Lena Dunham Did not enjoy Lena Dunham’s haircut, but I get it. Did not enjoy her eyeliner, either, but it reminded me of a Halloween costume a couple of years ago when I went out as Taylor Momsen, so that got me thinking about what I’m going to do this By Duana • Sep 23, 2013 01:09 pm
Emmy Awards 2013 Emmys Best Game: Julia Louis-Dreyfus Do you see what I’m saying about the strapless dresses? Not only does this one fit tightly under her armpits, but it also rises up and curves OVER her cleavage. There is no danger that it’s going anywhere. I am more relaxed just by looking at her. This By Duana • Sep 23, 2013 12:56 pm
Emmy Awards 2013 Almost, Kate Mara I thought about giving it to Kate Mara, I did. Her white dress was among the best in a night where best, at best, was B+. And there were so few of those. It’s J Mendel. It’s a good idea, not greatly executed. Take a look at it By Lainey • Sep 23, 2013 12:48 pm
Assy Style Kerry Washington’s Emmy wedding By Marchesa standards, it wasn’t horrific. You know what horrific Marchesa looks like, right? Here. That should refresh your memory. Or see Malin Akerman. So, again, by Marchesa standards, it could have been worse. But… I don’t want to talk about Kerry Washington, our beloved Kerry Washington, in By Lainey • Sep 23, 2013 12:37 pm
Style Best Young Dressed: Kiernan Shipka It has to be daunting by this point. By now, Shipka knows she’s not just having fun with clothes. That is, she may well be, but now she knows very well that it’s becoming a thing, the way she looks and what she chooses to wear and stuff, By Duana • Sep 23, 2013 12:26 pm
Gorgessity Emmys Most Significant Fabric: Connie Britton It looks like Nashville. Right? Am I right? My girl Connie Britton dressed in Lions red when it was time to celebrate FNL, and now that it’s about Nashville, it’s about the kind of velvet and brocade that might as easily upholster a chaise lounge to celebrate Rayna By Duana • Sep 23, 2013 12:19 pm
Assy Style Worst Emmys Makeup & Hair: Anna Faris I like Anna Faris so much, so much, so much. But… I’m worried. I worry that maybe the pressure after baby was too much, what with getting a new show and – gasp! – being almost 37 in Hollywood. Was it too much? There seems to be a lot of stress By Lainey • Sep 23, 2013 12:04 pm
Assy Style Jessica Pare’s turquoise taffeta You combine turquoise with taffeta and there’s only one place you should be: The Enchantment Of The Sea, graduating class 1987. Have your best friend hold your hair back while you puke tequila in this dress. Lose your virginity in this dress. But do not, do not wear this By Lainey • Sep 23, 2013 11:47 am
Emmy Awards 2013 Emmys Most Insufferable: Allison Williams Big blue dress – check. Stacked weird black chunky heels – check. Weird sense of overblown entitlement because you’ve been singled out as the “conventionally pretty one” from Girls? Ohhhh, check. Allison Williams appears to think she is a fashion girl now. I’m not saying she’s not – she may By Duana • Sep 23, 2013 11:35 am
Emmy Awards 2013 Jon Hamm’s white jacket Jon Hamm looked like he was in a great mood on the Emmys carpet. Duana would like me to mention that she didn’t mind Jennifer Westfeldt’s dress. I would like to mention that it looks wrinkled. As for his white tuxedo jacket, Duana noted during the live-blog that By Lainey • Sep 23, 2013 11:14 am
Gorgessity Emmys Most Improved: Elisabeth Moss WOW, this girl. I’ve been on kind of a renewed crush cycle with her since that video from last spring where she and the other maybe-nominees (sorry, Monica Potter) discussed their lives as actresses, and she had fun and was lively and excited. When I saw her tonight I By Duana • Sep 23, 2013 11:00 am
