14-Year-Old Fashionista

When I was 14 I was rockin' less-than-flattering tops from Express and a sassy mouthful of braces (with glow-in-the-dark rubber bands of course). Fourteen-year-old Academy Award nominee Hailee Steinfeld missed out on the Oscar for best supporting actress, but she has my vote for top of the best dressed list with her nude Marchesa gown. Always age-appropriate, she looks sweet yet sophisticated, the perfect combination of cute and classy.

The red carpet is going green, and no, I'm not referring to the striking emerald gowns spotted at this year's Golden Globes. This awards season, Livia Firth, wife of Oscar-nominated Colin Firth, threw down the sustainable-clothing gauntlet with her "Green Carpet Challenge." (be sure to check out her blog!)

At the Globes we saw her sporting a hand-dyed, peace-silk gown created by Prophetik, a Nashville-based designer at the forefront of eco-friendly formal wear.

With hubby Colin as a front runner for Best Actor at next week's Academy Awards, Livia will most certainly give us a second look at sustainable glamor. No word on the designer yet, but I'm sure it will be green.

At Sunday's SAG Awards, Glee's Amber Riley showed the world that red carpet fashion isn't about only about being a size zero. The curvy songstress stunned in a jet black gown by Anne Barge, sporting simple Swarovski accessories, edgy bangs and a playful pink lip.

Golden Globes: Helena Bonham Carter

I know some of my fellow fashionistas might disagree with me, but I think Helena Bonham Carter looked fierce walking the red carpet. Attending the Globes in support of her latest flick, The King's Speech, Carter wore a tulle-covered Vivianne Westwood frock, circular shades and a pair of mismatched shoes.

"Every bit of clothing brings out a different part of you. I was thinking wicked fairy witch," Carter told Alexa Chung, host for NBC. "If you are going to spend three hours getting ready, you might as well go for it."

Carter's outfit wasn't exactly sophisticated chic but at least it was memorable, and her confidence is inspiring!

Readers--what did you think of Carter's look? Do you like the Christmas-colored footwear? Or do you prefer this vintage-inspired look from the BAFTA tea party earlier this week?
