The 2012 BAFTA's Green Carpet

Dear Readers,
With only one week to go before the Oscars, I thought we'd review this year's BAFTA (British Academy of Film and Television Arts) Awards.  In contrast to the colourful Golden Globes and last year's BAFTAs, the BAFTAs this year were, for the most part, a black-and-white affair, similar to the SAG Awards' red carpet.  Any Academy Awards colour predictions??!  There was another interesting and 'colourful' trend at the BAFTAs - a few celebrities were going green with eco-friendly and sustainable designs!


Before we take a trip across the pond, let's have a look at my favs from the BAFTA Tea Party in Los Angeles:

Felicity Jones in Dolce & Gabbana
I love the shape & colour

Bérénice Bejo in Elie Saab

Emilia Clarke
cute shoes!

Penelope Ann Miller

Lena Headey in Collette Dinnigan

Michelle Williams in Victoria by Victoria Beckham
cute, but still not wow, Michelle

Victoria Summer

Ahna O'Reilly 
she just needed better undergarments...

Ariel Winter 

Viola Davis
this colour is amazing on her!

Andrea Riseborough in Escada

Claire Holt
I LOVE the turquoise/purple combo!
