So, here’s our take on the 10 best and worst looks from tonight’s Emmys. Let us know what you think by leaving a comment below.  And Betty White? You just get a Glowing Golden Girl category of your own.

    I actually loved January Jones’ dress, but I’m sure I’m one of the few. It was different and fun to look at- and she’s also from my hometown in South Dakota, so I have to stick up for her. And hey- if I was ever on a red carpet, I’d likely rock the same darn thing. It was a nice pick-me-up in the mist of all the usual Grecian-styled gowns.

    Kelly Osbourne looked absolutely great too- she proved that solid black gowns don’t have to be boring. Stunning!

    I think the Emily Deschanel dress is lovely. SO distracted by January Jones’ seashell cups.
