Red Carpet Trends From The Golden Globes

{ Via: }

After last year's #MeToo fashion blackout, Hollywood's biggest stars really brought the fashion hits to the 76th Golden Globes.  From Lady Gaga's sweeping lilac Valentino to Rachel Brosnahan's marigold Prada gown, the stars shined bright Sunday night. More than color, I loved the fashion details.  Today's post features four trends to love: Nude Tulle, Off The Shoulder with Long Sleeves, Leopard Print, and Pants. Here's how to get the red carpet looks in our own lives.



Tulle
Constance WU in Vera Wang
All of the fashion police and I agree that this was a winning look on Constance. The dreamy color matched her skin tone so well. The pop of color in the sash and the tulle skirt with pockets were fun. And now you can own this 
confection, too.


Vera Wang Ceres
One of the very few gowns from the Globes that can be yours. Pre-order now for delivery 8 months from order date. It's wonderful!
Moda Operandi


Vera Wang Maria Theresa
A bit bridal, but also a knockout for your own red carpet moment.
Moda Operandi


Alex Perry Lovell
In this case, the pop of color is dramatic black! Sold exclusively at 
Net-A-Porter

~ Off The Shoulder ~


Allison Janney in Christian Siriano
Allison is 59 years old. Her gown was a fabulous look for women over 50.  Our shoulders never age and just might be the thinnest part of our bodies. It's been a signature look of mine for years. Long sleeves are always elegant, and covers troubled arms. I loved her look though that color was not my favorite against the 
red carpet.


Christian Siriano Gown
With a sweetheart bustier, neckline and a bodice draped cape, this look really makes a statement, on or off the red carpet.
Moda Operandi


Marchesa Lace Off Shoulder Fit And Flare Gown
So loving this dress. It could be a contender for my Mother of the bride look.
Moda Operandi


Rickie Freeman for Teri Jon
Velvet Gown
I saw some velvet last evening. But the story here is that deep rich jewel tone color, the off the shoulder look and the long sleeves. It's all very alluring and on sale at a 
bargain price.
Neiman Marcus

~ Leopard ~


Anne Hathaway in Elie Saab
In my opinions, Anne was the biggest risk taker of the evening. I think she pulled off the spotted look with great aplomb. Though leopard print is now not only considered a classic, it's not often seen in formal wear. Let's see what I can find for the rest of us.  


Rachel Zoe Snow Leopard
Sequin Gown
Layered with luxe sequins, so that all eyes will be on you.
Bloomingdale's or Shop Rachel Zoe


Prada Satin And Leopard Brocade Gown
Straight from the Resort 2019 Collection. This is one wild yet elegant gown. The green adds the glam. Click the photo or link below to see the rest of the peek-a-boo details 
on the runway.
Matches Fashion


Petar Petrov Leopard-Print 
Silk-Crepe Dress
Everything about this dress makes a statement. From the asymmetrical hem, the pee-a-boo back and sleeves, to the fluid drape of the dress...it's all so good.
Moda Operandi

~ Pants ~

Julia Roberts in a Pantsuit
Doesn't Julia just make your smile? She always appears to be authentically herself, and almost self conscious. She upped her game in the most chic pantsuit by Stella McCartney. It was both glam and sophisticated. 


Dundas Sequin Wide Leg 
Jumpsuit & Jacket
Talk about shining style! This outfit should have been at the Globes.
Moda Operandi

Christian Siriano One Shoulder Sash Jumpsuit
As featured in the Pre-Fall lookbook, this jumpsuit brings on the drama!
Moda Operandi


Alexis Sequin Jacket & Pants
Oh how fabulous, and not as expensive as it looks. I would wear this outfit in a heartbeat.
Moda Operandi

Jewelry That Makes A Statement


By Megan Hess

I'm back. Last Friday I escaped the Windy City, and landed in colder, snowier New York City! Who does that? Between a busy schedule, family bonding, and Internet issues, something had to give. I missed you all, and my daily therapy called "Shop This." So, did you all watch the Oscars? For me, the fashion was generally disappointing. All the usual players looked lovely but, I thought, safe. What grabbed my attention the most was the jewelry! Whoa! From Oprah's tassel bracelet to ScarJo's Versace jeweled collar, statements were made in accessories. Here's how to make your own.




HERE: 15 Pieces That Promise To Make A Statement


Vintage Stars
How fun! Now you can be the star with these one of a kind 1980'S jeweled pendant earrings. Perfect for adding a colorful pop to any outfit.
Etsy


Zad Statement Necklace
Colored glass beads and gold metal make a bold statement in turquoise, black or coral. This pretty pick is also very affordable. It's lovely on or off.


Crystal Dandelion Drops
Love to sparkle? These make a neutral statement and would be fun to pair with your LBD or dressed up denim. I know you are going to love the price. 
Bauble Bar


Agate Cuff
Like all of the CC Skye's pieces, this beauty of a bracelet has an elegant edge.
CC Skye


Ben-Amun Crystal Chandelier Earrings
J Lo got my vote for best dress at the Oscars. She looked like a star! Here she is at The Golden Globes wearing massive earrings. You can get the look for much less.
Max and Chloe


The New Beacon Bracelet
From one of my all time favorite jewelry lines, this new cuff has an edgy art deco vibe. I believe it is layered over the new Rise Bracelet.
Lulu Frost


Drama Queen Collar 
Own that nickname! Look the part in this super statement making necklace without the super expensive price tag
Nasty Gal


Naga Double Coin Bracelet
Make some magic. This enamel bracelet features Red Sapphire, Orange Sapphire, Yellow Sapphire and African Ruby Eyes. All in Sterling Silver.
John Hardly


Sun Goddess Collar
A bold brass collar makes a feathery statement.
Free People


John Wind Uptown Girl Charm Bracelet
Nothing makes a smarter statement than your own initials. This updated and very Uptown charmer is just the loveliest and affordable gift! 
Max and Chloe


Erickson Beamon Stratosphere Ring
Faux everything adds up to a real statement maker.
Net-a-Porter



Alexis Bittar Multi Stone Vine Ring
White quartz/sodalite doublet, lapis, and chrysocolla. I haven't heard of some of those gems, but they sure are colorful. This is one accessory that really pops!
Neiman Marcus


Tory Burch Sawyer Watch
You don't see too many watches on a red carpet, but in real life, many of you might consider them a necessity. This one blends form, fashion and function.
Nordstrom


Natasha Sonja Drama Statement Necklace
Talk about drama? If this necklace was real and on The Red Carpet, it would cost at least a million!
Dillards


Viktor and Rolf Velvet Rock
This collaboration with Swarovski couldn't be hotter. The color red always makes a statement on or off the red carpet, but the collection also features jet black.  
Swarovski

Countdown To The Oscars: Let's Have Our Own Red Carpet Moment



With the Oscars coming this weekend, there is big anticipation as to who will wear what. Traditionally it is the awards evening that all of the stars really "bring it" in regards to fashion. Of course, the red carpet is my favorite part of the evening. The gowns are being custom made and shipped as I type. They will be one of a kind and cost tens of thousands of dollars. But what about the rest of us? We all have special evenings in our own lives, be it a wedding, prom, a charity event and more. Here, I have put together an edit of evening dresses and bags that are red carpet worthy.


Elizabeth Arden


Carmen Marc Valvo Jeweled Gown
There has been a whole lot of red on the red carpet this year. In the past, I just didn't care for the way it looked against the color of the carpet. I think I am over that now. Red is really quite eye catching, especially on a brunette. See this gown on the runway at
Saks Fifth Avenue


Sondra Roberts Minaudiere
This is a chic choice for some high low dressing. It's less than $50 yet will pair nicely with any designer gown.
Macy's


Terani Couture Beaded Sweetheart Gown
You very seldom see a long sleeve gown on the red carpet. The truth is, many women want a sleeve, and I am one of them. Love the color, as navy is very on trend right now. This gown would be flattering to many. It's affordable, too.
Dillards


Kate Spade Elliana
Fringe is so in right now. This clutch is just a bag of fun in a very rich navy. 
Kate Spade


 Ralph Lauren Collection
Selena Gown
Don't you just love a gown with a dramatic back? This stretch jersey gown is the epitome of evening glamor. Unfortunately, it is almost sold out.
Ralph Lauren


Whiting and Davis
This timeless Minaudiere comes in dimple mesh for a modern look. The hand feel of these bags is really good.
Amazon


MARCHESA
Embellished Lace and Tulle Gown
Marchesa - a name you hear on the red carpet frequently. Their gowns always make a  statement. This one looks as if it was made for Penelope Cruz. See in in motion at
Net-a-Porter


Jason Wu Box Clutch
Faceted crystals and watersnake-covered beads, add a luxe look to this chic clutch. Now reduced by 30%.
Last Call By Neiman Marcus


Donna Karan Embellished Grosgrain Floating Evening Gown
Every once in a while an actress walks the red carpet in white, and it usually is striking. This dress is so gorgeous, it could be a wedding gown.  
Donna Karan


CC SKYE Lucite Clutch
One of my favorite clutches of all time. 
CC Skye


Halston Heritage
Half-Sequined Halter Gown
If you want to shine at night, sequins are the way to go. Love that this style gives the eye a break with only half of the design covered with sequins
Neiman Marcus


Edie Parker
Jean Stripe Box Clutch
I just love a lucite clutch. This is pricey but pretty.
Neiman Marcus


Alice + Olivia 
Blythe Embroidered Crop Top and Ball Skirt
You may have noticed that a huge trend on the red carpet is cut out dresses and crop tops. I don't normally think it is very elegant. In this case, the crop top is very pretty. A close up shows some barely there skin. Might be a pretty pick for prom or any party.
Neiman Marcus


Natasha Couture Sea Urchin Clutch
Pearly beads and spiky rods give this clutch an edge.
Nordstrom
