2012 Screen Actors Guild Awards

Last night we saw a definite trend of white, grey or ashy dresses with a lot of sparkle. Again there were clinched waists, many strapless gowns as well as red and black dresses making another apperance. Which look was your favourite? Here are my personal favourite of the evening:

Tea Length Wedding Gowns

Although tea length wedding dresses have not been the most popular, this year we are seeing more and more of them gracing the runway. This comes as no surprise considering how strong the 50s trends are at the moment. These dresses are perfect for a summer/spring wedding or a beach/outdoors wedding and they are a bit cheaper than a floor length gown. Would you wear this style on your special day? These are my favourite tea length gowns-
