Red carpet season continued along last night with the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards. And though the fashion stakes might not be quite as high as those at the Oscars and Golden Globes, that didn’t stop Hollywood’s leading ladies from showing off some gorgeous beauty looks (even it they did wear their third favorite dress). Here’s who I obsessed over:
Helen Mirren. Orange lips are a huge trend for Spring 2014, and we’ve already seen them on the likes of Jessica Alba and Nicole Richie. But Helen Mirren? At 68, the actress looked amazing in a sexy slicked-back bob, black liner, and glossy orange lipstick. She proves that women of any age can embrace color. Just make sure the lipstick formula you choose is hydrating—lips should look plump, not cakey.
Lupita Nyong'o. My first thought when I saw Nyong'o's eye makeup last night was “wow, this would look horrible on me.” And it would. But Nyong'o wears color fearlessly, and that's a big part of why she's everyone's favorite this season. Color pops against her gorgeous skin tone, and her blue shadow complemented her teal Gucci dress perfectly. She's a lesson to all of us to put down the brown and neutral eye shadows every once in a while.
Julia Roberts. At the Golden Globes, Julia Roberts’s side-swept up-do, severe black liner, and button-down top totally aged her. But last night, she stomped out in a pink Valentino jumpsuit (!) and beach-y, caramel blonde waves that were glossy and sexy enough to make even Blake Lively run to her nearest salon. Her hair looked healthy and effortless (though I know better than to think those curls came easy). Talk about a transformation.
Kerry Washington. What side are you on? I am of course referring to the great pregnant crop-top debate. The Scandal star wore a Prada top and black skirt on the red carpet last night, and let me be clear… I loved it. But I loved her thick black headband and rosy lipstick even more. The look is pretty easy to copy at home, too. Just slip on a headband, tease the hair at the crown, and gather it into a high bun. Tuck in and pin any loose ends to give it polish and finish with hair spray. Sparkly earrings and lipstick elevate the look from at-home headband territory.
