This past weekend hosted three big award ceremonies in the showbiz world. The IFTA's, the BAFTA's and the Grammy Awards. I sat glued to the Red Carpet shows expecting luscious gowns galore, but to be honest I was left bitterly disappointed. There was just so many ill advised choices. But I won't dwell on the negative. Here's my pick of the best from the weekend.
My two favourites from the BAFTA's were Michelle Williams in a sleek and simple bespoke H&M gown. High Street on the red carpet?? Madness! The colour and cut of Fearne Cotton's Moschino dress is beautiful and the bow and bejellewed neckline add a nice touch. The style at our very own IFTA's disappointed me the most. I struggled to find two dresses that I liked. Dawn Porter gets it right with this black number and a sleek and shiny bob. Her arm candy ain't too bad either. I love this lime green Joanne Hynes dress on Ruth Negga. Not many people could pull off this colour but she wears it well.
For once it was the men who caught my eye for best dressed at this awards ceremony, with the gorgeous Michael Fassbender, Bressie and Chris O' Dowd coming out on top. I love how Chris opted for a three piece suit with a low waistcoat and a skinny tie, instead of a run of the mill tux.
L.A. hosted the Grammy Awards in a rather somber mood, due to the untimely death of Whitney Houston. A lot of stars chose to wear black as a mark of respect. Adele, who picked up SIX Grammy's looked absolutely stunning with her new shorter blonde bob and a red lip. I really like the simplicity of the black and gold combination that both Alicia Keys and Guiliana Rancic rocked on the red carpet. As for Rihanna, WOW!! That barely there Georgio Armani dress that she helped design certainly turned heads! It's not really my cup of tea but I can't deny she looks stunning and has a body to die for. Not too sure about the hair.
Carrie Underwood looks elegant in a backless Gomez-Gracia gown, while Kate Beckinsale shows off her amazing legs in this draped Zuhair Murad dress. Adam Levine was my pick for best dressed man at this event. It's nice to see a bit of navy to break up the usual black parade. Taylor Swift also wore Zuhair Murad looking almost regal in gold. It was a fantastic choice and my pick of best dressed lady on the night.
Did you watch any of the award ceremonies? Were you disappointed overall like me? Who was your favourite?
wearing h&m on the red carpet definitely gets my vote!
