twitter red carpet trend pre-show predictions: SAG Awards 2011

31Jan11

Today I received a completely day-making tweet. It was from USA Today (@USAtoday_style), informing me that one of my red carpet tweets was featured in the paper. Specifically, “We loved your SAG fashion tweets so much we put them on page 4 of the USA TODAY Life section!” Whoa. And sure enough, when I turned to pg. 4, there it was, under a photo of Claire Danes:

“Oh Claire Danes, how I adore you. Your Louis Vuitton dress is making my heart flutter. And your lipstick.” -makeupbyjanine

Okay, I know, its just a quote. Not like I wrote the article or anything. But it helps to reaffirm for me that doing what I love and feel passionately about is a good thing. Blogging about beauty and fashion makes me happy. Super cool to know others like it too. (and that way I can also justify to my fiance that watching 6 hours of awards show coverage is indeed “work”).

Here are the rest of my twitter musings from last night’s SAG Awards red carpet. . .

(they start with the end of the show, so go to the bottom of the page for the beginning of the red carpet)

@makeupbyjanine
There should be blotting papers at each table at the #SAGAwards #whyaretheysoshiny?

@makeupbyjanine
@evachen212 every time I see her brows (Natalie Portman) I’m amazed. Break every rule, but so wrong they are right. Only on her I think though, no?

@makeupbyjanine
Did Nat Port just get beeped? “my parents taught me never to be an a$$hole” … well it IS a good lesson #SAGAwards

@makeupbyjanine
right? RT “@evachen212: Amy Adams looks like a young, unfreakish Nicole Kidman… (that’s a good thing)”

@makeupbyjanine
Oh Claire Danes, how I adore you. Your Louis Vuitton printed dress is making my heart flutter. And your lipstick. #ignoringneedforpowder

@makeupbyjanine
What color is that on Rosario Dawson? Lemon? I kinda looooove it. #SAGAwards

@makeupbyjanine
Looking at Ernest Borgnine is like looking at the future of @justingelsinger’s eyebrows #SAGAwards

@makeupbyjanine
Mila in McQueen: my Best Dressed tonight

@makeupbyjanine
What do my hair stylist friends think of Natalie Portman’s hair? #onthefence #lovehaterelationship

@makeupbyjanine
agreed “@MNYInsider: Betty White gets my vote for Best lipcolor of the night. #SAGawards”

@makeupbyjanine
So confused about the twitter love for Angie Harmons dress. Seriously? It’s wack. #pinkswan #fail

@makeupbyjanine
*spits drink on iPad* “@derekblasberg: No really, they couldn’t have given Betty White a closer seat? Or a cane? Or a jazzy?”

@makeupbyjanine
Betty White! She’s so hot right now #zoolandervoice #SAGAWards

@makeupbyjanine
Did Amy Poelher buy her wig from a Real Housewife? What is happening here? #SAGAwards

@makeupbyjanine

@makeupbyjanine
What was that super awkward moment with Steve Buschemi & the Mila Jovovich lookalike? #SAGAwards

@makeupbyjanine
I bet I would be 90% sexier with Sofa Vergaras accent #justsayin #SAGAwards

@makeupbyjanine
What color is Eva Longorias eye shadow? I can’t tell… Mint? aqua? Silver? #SAGAwards

@makeupbyjanine
That color is insane on Julianna Marguilies. Ponytail trend is owning it tonight. #SAGAwards

@makeupbyjanine
How cute is Betty White? I want to put her in my pocket. #SAGAwards

@makeupbyjanine

@makeupbyjanine
Christina Hendricks has a super smoky eye too. Lots of ladies smoking it up tonight. #redcarpet #SAGAwards

@makeupbyjanine
The above-the-head camera angle was unfortunate on Amy Poehler. That hair looks flattened within an inch of it’s life. Love her regardless

@makeupbyjanine
