The 67th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards took place last night and serious history was made in the outstanding actress categories. Congratulations to Regina King, Uzo Aduba and Viola Davis for really shining in their crafts, for the history of women and most importantly for African American women in television. All three deserved to win an Emmy. Follow me on Instagram for details: @yannid125

Gina Rodriquez definitely took the cake for the hottest “virgin” of the night. The “Jane the Virgin” star was radiant in a Lorena Sarbu gown. When I first saw this look I instantly thought she looked like a beautiful bride. No shade in that comment I really liked this on her. Gorgeous!

The gorgeous Tracee Ellis Ross kept it pink in a Zac Posen gown. Zac had a lot of hits on the carpet last night, but I have to say I was not crazy about this one. However, I do feel that this beauty really could wear anything and look amazing.

Taylor Schilling kept it simple and pretty in this Stella McCartney gown. I love that she added a pop of red to this with her lip choice.

She can wear anything. (THANK GOD) I just don’t get the direction Mr. Posen was going in when he designed that dress. I know you look at fashion from all angles so I thought maybe there was more of an abstract view point of the dress, or not?

September 21, 2015 at 10:12 pm (9 years ago)haha I am with you. I am very confused on the direction. Sarah Hyland also wore Zac and it was his classic beautiful silhouette. So I am not sure what they both were doing with that choice.
