    Agree – I don’t mind the style of the dress, but the color was too bright.

    YAY! Arrested Development starting is the best news ever. I want to celebrate with a Bluth frozen banana!

      Your little icon makes me giggle 🙂 Buster is my favorite.

        The seal is for marksmanship, and the gorilla is for sandracing. 😀

      • taylor says:

        Ackk! Buster is my favorite, too! My boyfriend just looks at me weird whenever I mention it, but Buster is the best!

      • Erinn says:

        bahaha, I had a prof that looked soooo much like Buster it was ridiculous. I couldn’t take a thing he said seriously

    for me it her hair and lipstick. that color isn’t great, i miss her as a ginger a la Devil Wears Prada, i loved that on her. and her lips are too pinky. but that dress color is beautiful.

    • bros says:

      for me its because the dress looks like a fugly 80’s prom dress from the drop-waist up. yech. a more fashion forward cut and the color could have worked.

  3. gg says:

    That’s not a jewel tone – jewel tones are dark and intense, not almost fluorescent green.

  4. jc126 says:

    On my screen it doesn’t look fluourescent, just some what bright.
    Maybe in person it was nice. Remember a few years ago when Michelle Williams wore what looked like a mustard yellow gown? I bet the color just didn’t translate well on film.

  5. originalone says:

    Isn’t that Demi Moore’s dress that she wore I think last year in blush? Her daughter was miss Golden Globe or something…

  6. CooCooCatchoo says:

    She looks like a smug Tinkerbell in that dress. Not her best look. Her husband is so cute and seems really laid back.

  7. paola says:

    I can clearly see Angelina didn’t touch any of that food…

  8. mia girl says:

    I saw those Miley Cirus pictures earlier today and was wondering if you were going to comment on Miley’s jeans…

    What in the name of 80s hell is that girl wearing? Sometimes, there are no words… but in this case there are not enough words, namely adjectives, to describe the sheer awfulness of these jeans.

  9. Sumodo1 says:

    The dress is smashing! Emily’s blue eyes POP! I haven’t read the FUG girls yet–who’s dress was she wearing? Love the slit. Who knew she had nice legs?

    Update: Went over to the FUG girls. Voters gave the dress an overwhelming 83% “Fantastic” on the color. Still don’t know the design house, though.

    • Esmom says:

      I agree, I think she looks fantastic. The dress is bright but not offensive in any way. Very flattering.

    • Happymom says:

      I love the dress. But I hate her hair.

    • mia girl says:

      I liked it too.
      I dont think the photographs capture the real color. It did not look so bright on TV.

      There were a few dresses that looked better on TV/in motion than in photos. Jolie’s specifically.

    • TheOriginalKitten says:

      I LOVE the dress! I love green, especially on women with dark hair/dark coloring. I think she looks amazing..

    • TheOriginalKitten says:

      Could not disagree more. I think Emily Blunt looks incredible-love the color.

    • Bad Gal Addiction says:

      Dress is Oscar De La Renta.

  10. Lis says:

    I like it.

    *runs and hides*

  11. HappyJoyJoy says:

    She looks like she missed at least six tanning sessions before being able to pull that color off. Had it been a true jewel tone, it would have been amazing.

    • Mia says:

      Lol. When I saw this dress it immediately reminded me of a color dress I own. A dress which I only wear when I’m super tan and on vacation in Miami.

  12. Zelda says:

    Sarah at Evil Beet actually LIKED Lea Michelle’s dress… I wouldn’t put too much stock in their opinions over there : )

  13. NO SH¡T says:

    If I was Liam there is no way in hell Miley wouldn’t go anywhere not just in public,in daylight with me wear those jeans hell NO! Those mom jeans need to be taken out back and put to sleep!….Burn them Liam when she’s not looking.

  14. the original bellaluna says:

    I think the colour really makes her eyes pop. (I don’t see fluorescent on my screen.)

    I just re-watched It’s Complicated, and her husband is very funny in that movie.

  15. corny says:

    no jewel like that! dress is too old for her, and she can’t do it justice.

  16. ruokmiss? says:

    LOVE rooney mara’s ‘architectural’ dress. so beautiful, interesting and different.

  17. Cathy says:

    I like the dress, don’t care for her hair or lipstick though. Her lipstick could be a redder color. I don’t know what to think about her hair except that I don’t like it.

  18. JudyJudyJudy says:

    I didn’t know it was her. Terrible hair and I thought the dress was too thick or too much material or something. She is so divine that I will allow her this one not so hot choice. 🙂

  19. maggie grace says:

    I love her, I love him, I love THEM!! I think she looks great, except the hair over ears is a little dowdy.

  20. Marianne says:

    I actually really liked Emily’s dress. And perhaps it was the lighting.

    For example there are some pics of Melissa McCarthy where the dress looks blue, and other where it looks Black.

  21. dorothy says:

    I think she looks amazing.

  22. Heather says:

    Oh no, this dress was actually beautiful! The color it is showing up in these pictures is a little off from what it was in real life (or, on my TV!). It was a grass green, or kelly green, which is a very hot color right now!

    I thought Emily looked amazing.

  23. Maritza says:

    I think she looks amazing too!

  24. Franny says:

    miley. wtf. mom acid wash jeans belong in the 80s. now she is mixing up decades.

  25. Dawn says:

    Oh god, that’s a 70’s hair do! Everyone was wearing their hair like that after Romeo and Juliet came out (the one with Olivia Hussey and that cute guy Len Whiting)! I think she looks fine.

  26. Heinz says:

    Like the dress and the Krasinski.

  27. Bad Gal Addiction says:

    Two things I have to say:

    LOVE that dress on Emily!

    The ensemble of Breaking Bad was robbed!!!

  28. NeoCleo says:

    Please someone, make ME look that cheap! Please?!

  29. luls says:

    I dont get!? I think she looks gorgeous in that dress! And btw, that isnt a jewel tone.

  30. Delta Juliet says:

    I don’t really know much about her…..does she always look so pissed off? If I had her hubby on my arm, I’d be grinning ear to ear!

  31. jacquie109 says:

    Something about it doesn’t work, for me anyway. Might be her bright lipstick, or her hair isn’t done up enough. Theres just something…..

  32. Laurie M. says:

    I didn’t see her standing, but when the camera caught her sitting down…I could have sworn she was 4-5 months pregnant!! The fabric puffed up around her stomach – not flattering at all if she is not expecting!

  33. Momo says:

    I love the dress color! I love emeralds!

  34. Mouse says:

    I don’t like the Jane Eyre hair, but I like that color on her with the coral lipstick.

  35. thethinker says:

    Love the dress!!!! Not so hot on the hair.

  36. Seagulls says:

    As a fellow pale, I love this, up to and including makeup.

    Arrested Development!? Yay!

    “She calls it a mayo-o-negg.”

  37. HA! says:

    My cousin did a gig as part of her security entourage and he laughed after seeing how short she is in real life…LOL…Shortkira!

    As for Emi’s dress…a little darker green would had looked better.

  38. original sandy says:

    i like this color/style on her, and her husband is cute.

  39. *Roxy* says:

    I like the dress too 😉

  40. Stephanie says:

    I like the dress design but it would have been much better in emerald on her. Plus, I think her lip color has a slight orangey tint and that does not compliment the dress. I would have put her in a lighter and more pink lip color.

  41. Patricia says:

    Shamrock spew.

    Give me your husband.

  42. jane says:

    SHE LOOKS STUNNING LOVE THE COLOR

  43. LittleDeadGrrl says:

    Doesn’t look too bright on my screen. It’s a bright green dress but I think it’s pretty and I’m usually like darker colors. She looks fantastic

  44. Darla says:

    Love the color. Smart to do on a simple dress. Different is what she was going for, and it is, but still flattering.

  45. Kosmos says:

    I think the dress styling looks good on her and she wears it well, but I definitely would have gone for a deeper blue, maybe even a royal blue, or even a soft blue, but this color has green in it and it doesn’t appeal to me at all. I like Blunt and I’m glad she found love with her husband and the thing with Michael Buble ended because I don’t consider him a good or faithful person.

  46. Hm says:

    I don’t love the dress itself, but I think her skin looks amazing in it.

  47. JT says:

    I don’t think she looks that bad, I think she pulls off the dress quite well. And even if I didn’t like it, I think I can forgive her for having John Krasinski on her arm 🙂

  48. NinaG says:

    I have seen way worst, I like the color, it’s different and it’s not boring and safe, I must admit, I’m not a big fan of the style of the dress itself, but I think it works on her!

  49. risa says:

    Hate the color. Dress is ugly

  50. koko269 says:

    It looks slightly lighter than emerald green. It’s gorgeous on her!

  51. TheOriginalNothing says:

    Has anyone noticed Courtney Cox`s 7 year old dressed totally inappropriate for her age? WTF?!

  52. Loralei says:

    I love the dress. I think the color isn’t bright at alll. It is gorgeous, and has a pastel quality to it. The style is feminine but not too frilly. I thought Angelina’s dress looked sinister. She really needs to put on some weight.

  53. Jayna says:

    I don’t consider that a jewel tone. Maybe it is, but I always considered a much deeper Emerald green a jewel tone.

    I loved the dress on her.

  54. Lisa says:

    Actually…I am LOVING the color (which makes her eyes SING)…AND, I’m loving the style of the dress…

    I would love to have seen her hair either in a more severe upsweep…or hanging loose, one shoulder style…
