Whether you think it’s a snooze fest or you’ve had it highlighted on your calendar for months, there is no denying the stars rocked the red carpet at the 65th annual Primetime Emmy Awards. This year’s event took place Sunday, September 22 at none other than the Nokia Theatre in beautiful Los Angeles California. The Primetime Emmys recognize excellence in network as well as cable shows airing between 8pm and 11pm. . Now if by chance you’ve been living under a rock, some examples of these shows would be Breaking Bad, Modern Family and The Big Bang Theory. Basically, the TV shows that keep us students in our dorm rooms and college libraries empty! Well, enough with the small talk, let’s get to the two things that really matter; the winners and the fashion.
Some of the big winners for the 2013 Emmys were:
Best Drama: Breaking Bad
Best Comedy: Modern Family

Plus many more amazing television shows and actors that had the honor of winning a notable Emmy Award.
And now for my favorite part… the fashion! Based on E News! Best Dressed:
Sofia Vergara: If you’re a fan of Modern Family you know Gloria is all about the Va Va Voom! This brazilian beauty wowed us all once again in this Vera Wang and Lorraine Schwartz design.
Allison Williams: If you are a fan of the show Girls (like me!) give your girl Marnie a high five for owning the red carpet in this beautiful blue gown designed by Ralph Lauren.
Taylor Schilling: If you’ve seen her in the Netflix series Orange is the New Black (I strongly suggest it) you are standing right behind me when I say this blond bombshell cleans up nice in this beautiful white Thakoon dress. Don’t worry Taylor, we don’t care that it’s past Labor Day!
Kaley Cuoco: No wonder all the boys in The Big Bang Theory fawned over her! Kaley turns the sex appeal up in this dark red Vera Wang number, may I add this is one of my personal favorites!
And now for those who didn’t make the list, but I still think they deserve an applause…
Mindy Kaling: For being one of the more funny women on TV, Mindy is no laughing matter in this gorgeous Georges Chakra gown.
Rose Bryne: Looking pretty in pink, Rose takes her name to a whole new level in this simple yet sophisticated dress from The Calvin Klein Collection.
Malin Akerman: Malin got it right in this stunning Marchesa dress, from her jewelry all the way up to her hair!
Last but certainly not least!
Derek and Julianne Hough: This brother and sister dynamic duo danced their way to the Red Carpet wearing Brooks Brothers and Jenny Packham.
With awards season slowly approaching I don’t know about you, but I am so excited to see what Tinseltown has in store for us! From the fashion, to the winners, to the WTF moments, The Red Carpet will for sure be our number one show to watch.
