Swell Style: Emmy Dresses & An Old Spice Emmy

Did you hear the news? "Swell Guy," Isaiah Mustafa, the Old Spice Man, won an Emmy last night. WooHoo! Congratulations!!

Did you have a favorite look from the Emmys? I liked the softer, more natural hair styles. Claire Danes looked gorgeous....... which reminds me, have you seen her lash enhancer commercial? That woman's lashes are nuts.

I read that some people didn't like January Jones dress, but I loved her hair. It was shiny and non-helmet-y and had these sort of long piece-y pieces that really contrasted with all the roundness of the dress.

Kyra Sedgwick's purple dress was pretty and it appeared to have sort of texture to it - either velvety or crinkly. I wish I could see a close-up of the fabric.

Toni Collete's dress had an interesting pattern at the bottom. It was drama at the bottom and sweet at the top.

A lady picks a dress - she wants to feel pretty for a special night, powerful, beautiful, etc. In the morning she gets up and there she is, star of a Worst Dressed At the Emmys list. Sheesh, if she was so inclined, she actually could have used her phone to surf the web to learn that news while still wearing the dress.

Last night, before it was even dark here on the West Coast, I saw one of the GLEE ladies on just such a list. Oh, what do the list-makers know?  She felt pretty, she's AT THE EMMYS, (while you are stuck behind your keyboard)  let her enjoy her night.

What do you think? Would you listen to the listmakers or would you let your heart help you decide what to wear?
