Feet don't fail me now...

Last night were the SAG awards, and I was so happy watching the red carpet arrivals special, I kept calling out for Geo to "come and see!" I'm sure he was annoyed by the end of it, but it definitely was a lot better than the Golden Globes. Here are my top 5:

5.) Ashlee Simpson in Jenny Packham- To be honest, I've never seen her look this good. Her hair is so beautifully platinum, she's gained a little weight, and is now dating Vincent Piazzo-which I didn't even know about! They were so amazingly dapper together and I love that she went for a 20s theme.



4.) Emily Blunt in Oscar De La Renta- She didn't particularly do anything last night, except be a supporting wife to John Krasinki. But she looked so beautiful in her dress, Giuliana Rancic HAD to pull her up with her hubby just to see the dress. The color is even brighter than this on TV; I wish it didn't look so muted in pictures. My girl crush can do no wrong.



3.) Michelle Williams in Valentino- Simple, so simple and yet so unique at the same time. I'm convinced that everything she puts on, no matter how simple becomes unique because of her. She just radiates this glow, unlike any of the movie stars I see on the red carpet. Maybe it's her fragility, but all I know is she alone made that dress all the more spectacular.



2.) Rose Byrne in Elie Saab-When I saw her for the first time, I was already reeling over that new chic haircut of hers. And I only saw her from the waist up. Then they asked her about the dress and panned down. Turns out it was a friggin jumpsuit! And that's when I probably screamed my husband's name about 50 times, because someone else besides me needed to it! This is, without a doubt, one of the most exciting moments for me last night.



1.) Emma Stone in Alexander McQueen-All I can say about her last night is "perfection." Emma Stone has always killed it on the red carpet, but this was different for her. I've never seen her look so girly yet edgy at the same time. And I love the 50s throwback. It was definitely a good look for her, and I really hope she sticks to these kinds of silhouettes.


Can't wait for the Oscars!!! xoxo

Keep making me laugh

Today was a great day. Days off with my love are always great, because it's so rare for us to have them in the first place. We stayed around the better part of the valley, having lunch at Sweet Butter, window shopping, and catching a movie. Can I just say, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo has got to be one of the best films of 2011. I'm still reeling from how great it is, hours after seeing it. It's made me that much more obsessed with Rooney Mara. My one gripe, having to pay $15 at the Arclight since it's a holiday. We're loyalty members, but I keep forgetting to order my tickets online. The movie ended up being worth every penny-thank goodness. 

In other news, the Golden Globes were last night. And every year, during awards season-I always do a best and worst dressed post. I decided to just go with the best only because I pretty much hated the majority of last night's fashion. Huge disappointments for a lot of people-cough Mila Kunis cough. But the 5 pictured above were standouts to me:

5.) Rooney Mara in Nina Ricci-She stayed true to herself. Loved the shaggy ponytail. She's just an epic beauty who doesn't really need much to stand out. Loved the cut-outs with the little bows on her dress. Enough girliness with a huge amount of edge.
4.) Emily Blunt in Elie Saab-Wish she would've walked the red carpet. She seemed annoyed when she presented, but it didn't matter because all I could focus on was her body in that amazingly beautiful dress. The color and the detail speaks for itself. 
3.) Nicole Richie in Julien McDonald-I love that she's getting a little more glamorous. I'll always love bohemian Nicole, but I loved this side of her too. So sexy with the metallic dress and I love how she still incorporated her design with the House of Harlow clutch. And she's giving good hair!
2.) Angelina Jolie in Versace-I mean, come on! Just look at her picture. She's so regal on the red carpet, you just know you're looking at a movie star. A lot of people were making fun of the red fold on the dress, but that happens to be my favorite part. The dress would be boring otherwise.
1.) Charlize Theron in Dior Couture-My heart leapt when I saw her. She looked so angelic and ethereal, without looking schmaltzy. The tiered bow on the side was the right amount of uniqueness and fun. I haven't seen her look this good on the red carpet in awhile.

So there you have it. There are still a couple more awards-the most important being the Oscars. And I am super pumped for that. Hope you guys had a magical day!

Oh, Simple Things-where have you gone?

Best Dressed Emmy's 2010

5.) Dianna Agron in Carolina Herrera- A lot of people are saying it's too Scarlett O'Hara, but I happen to love Gone With the Wind, so I find this dress completely breathtaking. And she looks so stunning. Seriously, look at that face!

4.) Claire Danes in Armani Prive-She's literally glowing. I was so happy for her last night for her win. She's never looked better, in my opinion.

3.) Emily Blunt in Christian Dior- Again, I think many people would disagree with this choice, because I've heard it's a little drab. I love lilac/lavender and I think it looks gorgeous against her skin tone. Plus, the flower detailing makes it more unique. 

2.) Nina Dobrev in Zuhair Murad-I'm not usually a fan of Dobrev's red carpet choices, but this one has definitely changed my mind. She looks exquisite. And I love the crinkled texture of the dress. 

1.) January Jones in Atelier Versace-Oh January...I feel like I should write a song in your honor. Not only has she been my top lady a couple times now on the blog, but when I first saw her last night-my heart literally stopped. She looks to die for. And the fact that she picked such a bright, structured dress, in a sea of softer/nude silhouettes-it definitely speaks volumes.

Hope you enjoyed another Lainey's best dressed list. xoxo

Because we can Cannes!

It's Cannes season. Every year I look forward to Cannes, not just for the drop dead gorgeous red-carpet looks, but also for the chic photocalls, parties, and candids. I long for the day I can say I went to Cannes for a film. Here are a few of my fave pics from this year...

1.) One of the most stylish couples in my book, Diane Kruger and Josh Jackson in Chanel. 

2.) Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams for the Blue Valentine photocall. I know they're not a couple, but they sure would make a cute one.

3.) Love love love Emily Blunt's dress. She is so underrated. 

4.) Shia LeBouf and Carey Mulligan-one of the cutest couples in Hollywood. Such a mismatch but yet so perfect at the same time. 

5.) Ryan Gosling and his cutie costar "tweeting" or something. Adorbs.

6.) Russell Crowe aka my honey's doppleganger

7.) And last but certainly not least, my forever girl crush-Marion Cotillard. How gorgeous can her face get? She is definitely one of the few people I would lose speech over if I ever met.
