The Doily Duck's Top 3 Fashion Favorites: 2014 S.A.G. Awards

Just one week after the 2014 Golden Globes, the red carpet is back in the spotlight with the 20th Annual Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Guild Awards. And quite honestly, compared to last year's SAG Awards, I was very disappointed with the majority of the red carpet fashion.  But alas, I did find my favorite gems amongst the pebbles!

Here are my favorite fashion picks of the 2014 SAG Awards:


LADIES - Top 3

1. Lupita Nyong'o
And here she is again looking absolutely gorgeous! Lupita Nyong'o was my knight in shining armor of the evening! She wore a bright turquoise silk crepe Gucci column gown with a stunning floral embellished neckline. The turquoise color was just amazing and fresh! I loved her subtle hint of blue eyeshadow too!


2. Dame Helen Mirren
In love with Dame Helen Mirren and her Escada dress! At age 68, Helen showed up women half her age and looked totally hot in her long-sleeved gold embellished black dress. Her whole look was beautiful especially the unique beading and embroidery of the dress and her Neil Lane statement earrings.


3. Michelle Dockery
'Downton Abbey' actress Michelle Dockery has yet to disappoint me at the SAG Awards! Michelle wore a bold and striking black & white tuxedo-inspired dress by J. Mendel. She looked amazing with the plunging neckline and the slit up the front of the dress. Plus I loved her matching Gianvito Rossi heels!



GENTLEMEN - Top 3

1. Kit Harington
Actor Kit Harington looks good in just about anything! Oh, and he is wearing a Z Zegna black suit.


2. Jared Leto
I thought Jared Leto looked pretty damn good in his Dior tuxedo. I didn't mind his long 'Tristan-esque' hair and beard and I loved his black polka dot pocket square and Harry Winston watch. But his best accessory of the night was his gorgeous silver maned mother, Constance.


3. Benedict Cumberbatch
And yes, the well-dressed Benedict Cumberbatch. He knows how to wear a classic suit to a tee! 



I hope you enjoyed my red carpet fashion favorites for this year's SAG Awards! And I am so looking forward to the mother-of-all-red carpet fashion - the Academy Awards. Moreover, I can't wait to see who will win the 2nd Annual Golden Doily Duck Award for Best Dressed Duck and Drake exclusively for the Academy Awards! 

Which were your favorite looks of the night?

The Doily Duck's Top 3 Fashion Favorites: 2013 S.A.G. Awards

The 2013 Golden Globes earlier this month gave us the first round of gorgeous gowns and dapper suits for this award season and of course my Top 3 Fashion Favorites of the night! So, last night, the 19th Annual Screen Actor's Guild (SAG) Awards provided an excellent red carpet fashion midpoint in Hollywood's road to the Oscars. 

Here are my Top 3 Fashion Favorites of the 2013 SAG Awards for the ladies and gentlemen:

LADIES - Top 3

 1. Rose Byrne
I absolutely loved Rose Byrne's floral and ruffled printed dress by Valentino. With the oversized ruffles as well as the pastel pink and blue hues, her dress felt airy, whimsical, and very romantic. And that baby blue belt, pink lipstick, Jimmy Choo clutch, and gorgeous Van Cleef & Arpels ring were such great highlights to the overall look. (Photo: Getty)


2. Kerry Washington
 Kerry Washington looked stunning in her white strapless Rodarte gown. I loved her structured embellished corset bodice as well as her full, flowy skirt with silver beads at the bottom. Kerry's diamond jewelry by Fred Leighton sparkled perfectly with her gown and thought her side swept hair with ponytail was an unexpected casual touch to her otherwise glamorous look.

3. Michelle Dockery
Michelle Dockery looked ravishing in this floor length, black vintage Chado Ralph Rucci dress. Even with the dress's revealing, sheer cutouts along the sides, I thought the dress looked very elegant. Also, I loved her pretty bob styled hair and beautiful jewelry by Bulgari. (Photo: Getty)


GENTLEMEN - Top 3

1. Justin Timberlake

Justin pulled it all out for menswear on the red carpet and had the stand-out suit of the night. He wore a grey and brown checked wool Tom Ford suit, pastel brown gingham shirt, brown and white silk pocket square, and a textured tie. In addition, Justin rocked a very 1920s-Gatsby side part hair style. (Photo: Getty)


2. Eddie Redmayne
British actor Eddie Redmayne wore an offbeat yet bold dark brown velvet tuxedo suit by Hugo Boss with black tie. I love brown suits! (Photo: Getty)


 3. James Marsden
 James looked vintage Hollywood with his loose-fit black tuxedo. (Photo: Getty)


With the Golden Globes and now the SAG Awards behind us, there's only the Oscars left to be dazzled by! I can't wait to seeing what everyone will be wearing for Hollywood's biggest night of the year! And most of all, I look forward to giving my 1st Annual Golden Doily Duck awards to the Best Dressed Duck and Drake of Oscar night! 

So, who were your favorites of the night?

The Doily Duck's Top 3 Fashion Favorites: 2013 Golden Globes

Award season is officially under way! And it's that time of the year where I love to see celebrities dressed their best on the Red Carpet! For this year's Golden Globe Awards, I was honestly not too WOW'd by most of the ladies' fashion picks. Of course, I did have my favorites of the night for both the ladies and gentlemen. 

Below are my top three fashion favorites of the 2013 Golden Globes. Ladies, first, of course!

LADIES - Top 3

1. Anne Hathaway
Anne, my lady crush, looked simply stunning in her white Chanel gown. Encrusted in glittering crystals, I loved this two piece ensemble with structured corset top and long skirt. Also, I'm still enamored with her pixie cut hair style and applaud her choice of minimal jewelry. (Photos: Getty Images/NBC Universal)

2. Michelle Dockery
 Michelle Dockery of 'Downtown Abbey' wore a gorgeous gold and white couture gown by French designer Alexander Vauthier. What made me totally fall in love with this dress was it's gold intricate, semi-sheer golden bodice with high collar and bold shoulders. It was just the right amount of romantic, Baroque-style detailing on top of a simple white crepe gown. (Photos: Getty Images)


 3. Rosario Dawson
Rosario Dawson wore a simple pale blue peplum dress by Antonio Berardi. First, I thought the color of the dress looked beautiful against Rosario's warm skin tone. And second, I thought this gown was delightfully fresh and modern. Also, Rosario's jewelry by Lorraine Schwartz was gorgeous...I love that ring! (Photos: Getty Images/Pichaus)



GENTLEMEN - Top 3 

1. Robert Downey Jr.
 Robert Downey Jr. just gets more handsome every year. He looked smashing in his Armani suit and I loved the texture, the color, and especially the bowtie! (Photo: Getty Images)

2. Leonardo DiCaprio

Leo looked very sleek in his classic Tom Ford tux. (Photo: Getty Images)

3. Robert Pattinson

I hope you enjoyed my 2013 Golden Globes Fashion Favorites! I am so looking forward to the upcoming S.A.G. Awards at the end of January and especially the 85th Academy Awards Ceremony in February. I can't wait to see who I will give the soon-to-be coveted 1st Annual 'Golden Doily Duck' Fashion Award for Best Dressed Duck & Drake exclusively for the Academy Awards Red Carpet runway!!!

So, who were your fashion favorites at this year's Golden Globes? Love to hear them!
