2012 Emmy Awards: My Favorites! :)

Happy Monday!

The 2012 Emmy Awards was held yesterday... were you guys able to watch it?
I wasn't able to because I was gone for most of the day and I had a long list of things needed to be done when I got back. :/

But as always, I was very excited to see what the stars wore!
I know I usually do a full-on red carpet post for you guys, but I don't have much time to write one today... however, I just can't resist, so I am sharing my favorites with you guys today! ;)
(Next awards show: a full-on post, I promise, haha!)

Ginnifer Goodwin -

Ginnifer Goodwin

My #1! How gorgeous is she???!!!

This orange floral embroidered gown from Monique Lhuillier is pure perfection!!!
I love how Ginnifer kept everything else simple -- from her Rona Pfeiffer jewels to her Ferragamo clutch.
Plus, just look at how sexy those Christian Louboutin heels are! :)

Leslie Mann -

Leslie Mann

I love how fun and beautiful this look is!
I also think it's a perfect transition from summer to fall.

The marigold color of her Naeem Khan dress is so gorgeous, I love it!
The intricate beaded top is so pretty and her turquoise Lorraine Schwartz accessories are the perfect accompaniment to the vibrant color of the dress. :)

Emily VanCamp -

64th Primetime Emmy Awards - Arrivals

Although the color of this J. Mendel gown is not the best, I still really like it a lot!
Emily looks effortlessly beautiful -- very simple and understated.

I think her Van Cleef & Arpels jewelry add to the ethereal and somewhat whimsical vibe of her red carpet look. :)

Zooey Deschanel -

64th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards - Arrivals

It's not her typical quirky style, but I think Zooey looks beautiful!
I love her custom-made Reem Acra gown and I love her hair! :)

These are the four red carpet looks that really stood out to me...

What about you? Whose look did you like the best?
Whose look did you not like at all?

I wish you all a wonderful last week of September! :)

    Ginnifer looks so vibrant (and I'm so excited for the new season of "Once Upon a Time" soon!) - I also loved Lucy Liu's look!

    I agree with you, these were a few of the best last night. I really loved Heidi Klum's gown as well. I think I loved the color more than anything. She seemed very modern Grace Kelly to me. :)

    I was really disappointed in this year's Emmys fashion. I didn't think they made very good choices.

    I loved Zooey's dress! Julie Bowen's was my favorite though. She looked stunning in yellow!

    I really liked the color of Zooey's dress but the tulle was a little much for me.
