Last night from 8-11, millions of people sat in front of their TV to watch the Emmys to see if their favorite TV show won anything. Though I do love Glee, The Office, Gossip Girl, Desperate Housewives and more, the real reason I love to watch award shows like the Emmys and the Oscars is for the fashion. I love to see the different designers and dresses each actress wears and how they dress it up with accessories. Some actresses either hit the target and looked stunning while others looked rather bad. Here are some of my favorites of the night.

Claire Danes |
To me, Claire Danes stole the show in this gorgeous Swarovski crystal-encrusted Armani Prive strapless dress. She looked simply radiant as the dress accentuated her curves and flowed gracefully to the red carpet. Her blond curls' glow brightened up her face giving her a mature look. She definitely has grown up from being Juliet in Romeo and Juliet with Leo. Claire also came away from the night with an Emmy for her role in Temple Grandin. What a night for her!

Sofia Vergara |
Though Sofia may be all laughs on Modern Family, her show stopper Caroline Herrera gown was definitely no laughing matter. Sofia awed the crowds because she looked simply amazing in the stunning gold sequined dress. Her lush brown curls framed her face beautifully making her even more irresistible.

Dianna Agron |
Lace is one of my favorite features in a dress and Dianna wore it beautifully. Her fair skin looked flawless against the pale pink and black of the dress. Her tiered Caroline Herrara dress definitely made her one of the best dressed of the night. While most mind find this dress hard to pull off, this Glee cast star had no problem. It was a good idea to have the hair up but it could have been done better I feel.

January Jones
|
On the show Mad Men, January looks fabulous without a hair out of place in her gorgeous 1960's outfits. So what went wrong here? I guess she is not used to the culture shock because her hair and Versace dress aren't hot. For one thing, January looks like she rolled out of bed and decided to find a dress that made her look like a peacock with pointy boobs. Blue looks good on her because of her blonde hair but the blue on that dress is not complimentary. Next time I hope her stylist takes more time in planning her modern clothes as they do on the show.

Betty White |
Many people have criticized Betty White's attire and maybe they are right in saying she could have dressed better but the woman is almost ninety, people. Not many actors or actresses that old get to host SNL and win an Emmy for it. To me, I think Betty looked good and to those who haven't seen her SNL, watch it. It's really funny!

Mindy Kaling |
Though I do love Mindy on The Office, I was not at all impressed with her outfit. She looks as if she is trying to be a witch and an ugly one at that. Maybe if she lost the cobweb shoulder she would look better. Her hair looks like she rolled it up into a ball and put it on her head. I really hope this was a joke because I can't take her seriously in that outfit.
