Scarlet Fever

After attending the Emmys in LA (thanks again, Galderma!) on Sunday, I along with the rest of the world noticed that the color of the night was red. From Kerry Washington’s sheer, skintight scarlet number to Kate Winslet’s crimson curve-hugging frock, the Hollywood fashions were definitely red-hot.

Clearly, I didn’t get the memo as I strutted down the red carpet in a satin, champagne-hued Tracy Reese dress. However, the night before at a pre-Emmy mixer, I rocked a red and pink dress that was a personal precursor for the scarlet fever the following evening.
