LoveBrownSugar Fashion Countdown: Emmy Awards 2010

Sunday night's Emmy Awards brought the best and worst out onto the red carpet. We tweeted live some of our faves but in case you missed it, here's our countdown of the best and worse from the Emmy's 2010 Red Carpet. This time we're taking it from the great to the good and finally to the hell naw's. Hold onto your stilettos kids. Here we go:

Rocked

Claire Danes in Armani Prive

Claire Danes showed up to the red carpet glistening, shining and looking absolutely stunning in an Armani Prive strapless gown.Trust, this gown looked 100 times more dynamic and glamorous on screen...

Dianna Argon in Carolina Herrera

 You can't help but look classy in Carolina Herrera. The elegant lace and nude, demure color were perfect for Dianna Argon of popular televesion series Glee.

Kim Kardashian in Marchesa

Reality star Kim Kardashian rocked the red carpet in a long white Grecian gown by Marchesa. In my book, Marchesa can do no wrong. Elegant silhouettes, curve-hugging draping and the perfect embellishments. I will say this was a little safe for Kim though. Props still, cuz the dress is gorge.

Job Well Done

Lea Michelle in Oscar de la Renta

 It always warms my heart to see a navy blue moment on the red carpet. And of course, when the dress is fron my favorite designer, that makes the moment all-the-better. Lea Michelle showed up in a standout Oscar de la Renta mermaid gown. The dress - hit! The hair - miss! Oscar is served up best with understated, pinned up hair.

Kelly Osbourne in Tony Ward

 Whoa! Where did Kelly go? She's dropped about 3 dress sizes and she seems to have refined her goth aesthetic completely. She looked stunning in her fave color - black. Though I loved the ensemble, I'm not a fan of the hair. It's very....Oprah circa 1995? No bueno.

Oh What The....HELL Naw!

Christina Hendricks in Zac Posen

 Now I know boobs never go out of style, but THIS is a bit much! We normally love Christina Hendricks but this dress needed a little more fabric up top. Whoo lawd, put the kiddies to bed...

Lo Bosworth in ???

We have no words. Apparently Lo was given a "Mad Men" makeover during the preshow? This just might be the worse makeover we've ever seen. More like a make-under. Mad? Yes, we're certainly mad at this ensemble...

What did you guys think? Who's your fave and who's a hot mess? Soundoff below!

LBS Fashion Countdown: Lala & Carmelo's Wedding

 So some of you may know celebrity VJ Lala Vasquez and super star baller Carmelo Anthony got hitched this past weekend. They got married at Cipriani's on 42nd St in New York City and the event was jam packed with celebs so of course I have to voice my critique on the fashions. Let's start with the yacht pre-party:

 Carmelo and Lala had a yacht pre-wedding party in NYC the night before the wedding. The bride-to-be showed up in a black party dress with exposed seams and gold neckline...

I will say I like the neckline and the cutout at the shoulder, but I wasn't really impressed with this look on Lala. I thought, given it's a summer wedding, a brighter colored dress would've suited her well. On the contrary, Carmelo looked amazing!

 The celebs were out and about on the yacht cruise. Kim Kardashian in particular catches my eye. I love the assymetrical dress she chose for the boat ride. So, did they just give everyone a sailor hat? Cute!

Next, we're on to the wedding arrivals. First up, Kim K...

Of course upon first glance you think - wow, her body looks amazing! But what's new? I was really hoing Kim would give me a fashion moment outside of her usual body conscious Herve Leger look. But again, she defaults to the skin tight. If it ain't broke don't fix it,I guess. On another note, the shoes are FIERCE. Louboutin strikes again...

 I have to say I love this classy look on Kelly Rowland but I'm also yearning for a pop of color and a little more skin. I know it's an evening wedding, but it's still summer! For Kelly's look, I might have cut off the sleeves and added a bright coral statement necklace to the ensemble. I also would've gone for jeweled heels instead of leopard. It's a little too heavy for me...

So I was truly disappointed by Ciara's look for the wedding. I thought this look was giving more of a night on the town with the girls, instead of summer wedding chic. I'm not a fan of the color or the print unfortunately. I'm gonna have to give this look a foolish vote.

And last but not least, the lovely couple: Lala & Carmelo. Lala wore a strapless Vera Wang bridal gown with delicate layered chiffon. I thought it was a classy timeless piece. I actually got tipped off before the wedding that Lala would be wearing Vera. I met Carmelo's fashion stylist Khalilah Williams-Webb for a Honey Mag interview 2 weeks ago and she dished on what it's like styling for Carmelo, as well as a sneak peek at what Lala would be wearing.
