It’s a common belief that the outcome of the SAG awards are often a good gauge of where the awards will fall at the Oscars. By that logic, if the red carpet fashion is also a prediction of what’s to come at next month’s Academy Awards, we are in for a treat because almost everyone last night nailed it.

Striking solid colors ruled Sunday night’s carpet. We loved the simplicity and grace of Angelina Jolie (Max Azria). The color was magical with her complexion and hair color. And of course her choice of accessory (Brad Pitt), was pretty genius. Amy Adams (Giambatista Valli) was completely stunning as well and Laura Linney (Michael Kors) looked so pretty in an vibrant poppy one-shouldered gown and perfect clutch.

Charlize Theron copies Jessica Alba, Reee Witherspoon and Katie Holmes with rolled up jeans, large sunglasses and a large bag.

Several news sites reported on Michelle Obama’s choice of “chartreuse” for inauguration day, but designer Isabel Toledo has spoken out saying that Michelle’s coat color was actually “lemongrass.”

Michelle is certainly no stranger to either color…look at all the different times she’s worn it!

Michelle Obama wore an all-J.Crew ensemble (for a second time), the night before the inauguration. We love love love the color combination here. Hey, those aren’t the same green heels she wore on inauguration day? And did you know Malia and Sasha wore J.Crew ensembles to the inauguration? Check it out here.

Michelle Obama wore a bright solid color to the swearing in ceremony, but it was by Cuban designer, Isabel Toledo, not Maria Pinto. It was a vibrant gold/green color that you don’t see very often, but Michelle definitely has the confidence and complexion to pull it off. We also really liked that she wore a slightly darker shade scarf and opted for a completely different shade of green for her shoes and gloves. Those dark green pumps were a bold choice!

For the inaugural balls, Michelle wore an asymmetrical gown by Jason Wu, an emerging designer Michelle is familiar with. We could have sworn it was Marchesa at first, though! It was lovely to see Michelle in a color we haven’t really seen her wear before…cream…and again, it was her quiet confidence that really allows her to pull any silhouette off. She looked comfortable and completely at ease with how her figure looked in the dress. We thought it was magical and we can’t wait for better photos of the dress to hit the web.
