Best & Worse: Emmys 2012

Quick thing to begin found an amazing giveaway here which is well worth you all entering.

I bloody love award ceremonies and have done since before i can remember. In fact as a seven year old child i used to sit with a score sheet watching the Oscars ranking my fave dresses.

Here is my favorite and least favorite looks from this years Emmys.

Best
January Jones in Zac Posen Emmy Awards 2012
January Jones looks absolutely stunning in this Gothic Zac Posen black number. I know a lot of people are not loving this look but it was definitely my fave look. It's so hard to get the Goth trend right (think Gwenie's hideous 2002 Oscar dress) but i'm totally in love with this look.

Worst
Julianne Moore in Dior Emmy Awards 2012
Ok so there is nothing worse than seeing a woman of a certain age letting it all hang out but this Christian Dior dress literally covers everything and ends up making Julianne looks like a giant canary. I'm actually a pretty big fan of yellow on the red carpet and loved Michelle William's 2006 Oscar dress but feel this is the wrong yellow and there is definitely too much of it.

Football, Food and (X) Factor

Today i lost my football virginity and my boyfriend finally dragged me to a football match :) In return for this sacrifice of my Saturday afternoon he's agreed he will go and see My Fair Lady.

My major dilemma was what the hell do you where to a football match, apparently heels and a maxi dress are both no gos!

So here is what i wore..


Jacket- Vintage, Scarf - Alexander Mcqueen £165-00, Super Skinny Jeans- New Look, Brogues - River Island
White Shirt - H&M

 I'm also wearing one of my fave lipsticks which is an old Kate Moss for rimmel one, i have two as someone told me they were going to stop selling them soon! If you're inclined you buy it in shade 20 here still!

As the fella has still got a dodgy eye we've stayed in tonight and had a bit of a feast and a few ciders while we watch the X Factor! I made lamb koftas, corgettes fritters, potato wedges and we had a load of other Greek treats.
Thanks for reading
