Isn't She Pretty in Pink

And so it begins, once again, the start of awards season!!!   Red carpet fashions often spark ideas for pageant season gowns.  With the crowning of Miss America 2011, state pageants will soon be under way to begin selecting the MAO Class of 2012.   On the Golden Globe red carpet last night, pink seemed to be the color of choice in various shades.  Could this be the beginning of a trend for 2011, will pageant contestants move from the traditional "winning" white to a pale pink?

Not to be outdone, Catherine Zeta-Jones and others opted against the pale trend and showed up in various shades of beautiful jeweled tone greens.   I love this time of year!!!

Award Season = Pageant Fashions

Every winter, women around the world look forward to "Award Season". Unless you've been living under a rock for the past 10 years or more, you know this is the time when multiple shows air to showcase the past year's top performances in music, theatre, television & movies. So far, we've been graced with the Golden Globes, Screen Actor's Guild Awards and coming soon the Grammy's. This is also a great time for pageant enthusiast as we began to collect ideas and denounce fashion tragedies to prepare for our competition evening gowns.

Here are some of the looks that have caught from last night's SAG Awards.
