The Emmy Awards arrivals, to me, is more intense than who won what award (honest truth). As a devoted Fashion Expert, I don't really care to watch who won the 'Best Supporting Actor in a 10 minute walk on scene'.
This year at the Emmys (Sunday August 29th at Nokia Live), the bling was not left unnoticed. Jewelery didn't take center stage on the wrists of the talented individuals, but instead the crystals were oozing from the Stars' hair down to their feet.
Here is my list on the Best and Worst Dressed of the evening.
The HIT-List Best Dressed
Claire Danes
Claire dazzled the Red Carpet in class with a beautiful champagne Armani Prive gown covered in Swarovski Crystals. She won an Emmy for her role as Temple Grandin in the HBO production 'Temple Grandin.'
She looked flawless, and the color complimented her skin and sun kissed hair. She took the right approach by skipping out on the jewelery, as to not overdo and clash with her dress.

January Jones
I'm probably going to get a lot of criticism for this choice, but I absolutely loved it! This was an incredible color and cut for this Ms. Jones.
The adorable Mad-Men star did not disappoint me on the carpet. This electric-blue, avant garde Versace number was just the right hit. I loved the simplicity in her hair and minimal jewelery choice. However, I would have opted for a nude pair of pumps verses her black, bold version.
Lea Michele
This 24 year old Glee starlet, looked RADIANT in this navy, curve hugging mermaid Oscar de La Renta gown.
Though she didn't nab an award, she definitely represented the cast very well.
Best ALMOST Dressed Winner
Kim Kardashian
I SOOOO wanted to put Ms. Kardashian on the Best Dressed list but, I am a bit skeptical on her dress.
She is so full on top, that I feel the heaviness of her white Marchessa goddess gown wasn't the best choice. The dress is divine and the color looks flawless on her, but I do wish she chose another gown. Her Lorraine Schwartz cuff and her classy hair and make up do save her in this look.

Now for the LIST you've been waiting for...
The BLACK-List
Anna Paquin
First, let me congratulate Anna on her marriage (she wed True Blood co-star, Stephen Moyer, last week), this petite newly wed took a whole new approach on the red carpet.
She wore a unflattering gold armor-esque gown, by late designer Alexander McQueen.
I hate to put such a brilliant designer on this list but the satin number and harsh black shoes just didn't cut it. The star herself looks a bit miserable in this Matador inspired gown.
Christina Hendricks
Sex pot Christina Hendricks is always lovely, but this lavender Zac Posen gown is not. The pale color against her pale skin just washes her out. On top of that her red hair just clashes with the lavender feathered sleeved dress.
This dress doesn't help her curvy body at all. Please stick to your tight and fitted Mad Men costumes Christina, we love that look on you.
Tina Fey
Tina Fey's isn't always on the best dressed list but at least she has a sense of humor... right?
Once again I am putting an incredible designer on the Black-List, I should be ashamed. But, this look just doesn't make sense.
She worse a fitted (I give her that) Oscar de La Renta two-tone gown that should have stayed in hiding. The fit is incredible and the print is okay but black tulle on top of a white satin dress? No thank you Tina.
