The Emmys: Minka Kelly in Christian Dior

Minka Kelly was one of the few stars at the Emmys that I just couldn’t figure out.  I mean, in regards to her choice of gown, that is. 

Minka chose a dress from Christian Dior’s Pre-Fall 2011 Collection.  Lots of navy and lace, with a tiered skirt!  At first, I did not like this dress.  I didn’t like that she chose something with long sleeves.  But then it kinda grew on me.  I think it is pretty, in a retro-glam kinda way.  I mean, naturally I would’ve like to see Minka in something a bit more hip, something younger, something not so doily-like, but this is okay with me.  Obviously she is such a beautiful woman, she really looks gorgeous in everything she puts on! 

I am having a difficult time grading this Christian Dior on Minka.  I want to give her a C because I don’t love it, but I do feel it is better than average.  So….

Minka’s Christian Dior Emmy grade:  B

What do you think?  Love it?  Loathe it?

The Emmys: Rashida Jones in Alberta Ferreti

Adorable actress Rashida Jones was one of the many celebs in attendance at the 63rd Primetime Emmy Awards.

 

 

 

Rashida looked lovely in a blush-pink Alberta Ferreti gown with Van Cleef & Arpels jewelry.  This dress has so many qualities I love: the pale-pink color, the tulle, the cinched waist and especially the sweetheart neckline.  This gown is so very feminine, I really, really like it!  And I think it looks fantastic on her!  My only issue with this….is her makeup.  Her makeup is waaaaay too dark and heavy for such a lovely, light dress.  I don’t like the dark eye makeup and I hate her dark lips!  She looks almost princess-like in the dress, so her makeup should’ve followed suit!  Minimal eye makeup with a lighter, glossy lip would have looked so much better, IMO. 

Rashida’s Emmy grade:  B  ( I really want to give her an A, but the dark makeup is holding me back)

What do you think of Rashida’s Emmy look?
