The Emmys is one of those awards show where we expect the stars to pull out all the stops and this past Sunday was no exception, but what did surprise us were the amount of fashion risks we saw this year. Celebrities didn’t appear in the same boring ball gowns, we saw some unique looks and even those that tried difficult styles made it work (we’re looking at you Kerry Washington). Ok, not everyone made it work, there were a few misses in there, but we loved the looks on the whole. Take a look at our top picks for best and worst dressed at the Emmys.

Rosemary’s Pick: Kerry Washington looked absolutely stunning in a mixed metal mid length Marc Jacobs dress. The dress, which debuted just days before the Emmys at New York Fashion Week, had a lot going on but was paired perfectly with subtle jewelry and shoes. Kerry wore her hair up in a trendy faux bob to show off the dress’ unique shoulder embellishment. The mesh paneling, the studs, the silver and gold, everything about this dress came together perfectly for an edgy, fresh look.

Frances’ Pick: Sarah Hyland seems to be on her way to becoming a style icon. We recently put her on our best dressed list for the Teen Choice Awards and here she is looking stunning again. Normally her outfits are more on the cutesy side, but Hyland looked sleek and sophisticated in a burgundy Zac Posen dress. The form fitting column gown, gave her a nice womanly look and the matching Lorraine Schwartz and Ofira ruby accessories complemented the ensemble perfectly. The rear view, with its backless neckline detail made for amazing over the shoulder shots on the red carpet. Loved it!

The 2015 Teen Choice Awards have come and gone, but we can’t get over the impressive style we saw on the red blue carpet (it’s hard to look glamorous when it’s a 100 degrees outside).

Hollywood’s hottest young stars made the hot Los Angeles weather sizzle even more with their outfits. Many of them proved they are just as stylish as their older counterparts, but as is true for all awards shows not everyone could get the thumbs up.

Check out our picks for the best and worst dressed stars from the 2015 Teen Choice Awards below!

Rosemary’s Pick: Sarah Hyland. Even while she tripped on stage, Sarah looked amazing in a yellow matching Christian Siriano two piece. The flirty outfit was paired with beautiful blue earrings and white sandal stilettos. The look screamed “summer” with her on-trend tousled bob. While many others on the carpet failed to realize they were at the Teen Choice Awards (not a club, not a friend’s house, not the VMAs) in 90 degree weather, Sarah’s look was appropriate for the event.

 Frances’ Pick: Are ties allowed in this game? I technically make the rules so it shouldn’t matter, but in the spirit of picking an official “best dressed,” I’m going to give it to Lucy Hale. Hale wears a sophisticated –but still weather appropriate– embroidered black and blue mini dress with a plunging v-neck by British designer Julien MacDonald. She wore electric blue eye makeup to match, which could have looked tacky, but in this case was playful.

Honorable mention: Italia Ricci in a gorgeous yellow and gray, floral dress with bedazzled heels.

On Sunday, teens had their voices heard for the 17th Teen Choice Awards. Even though we started feeling a bit old as we realized that many faces on stage were unfamiliar (all the ‘web stars,’ for example), the Teen Choice Awards remain as one of the most fun, endearing award shows. As celebrities took the stage to receive their surfboards, many reminded teens to be true to themselves and to never give up because they are the future.

Leave it to the famous to have some amazing costumes. While many of us will be dressed as our favorite celebrities to celebrate Halloween tonight (or for the past month), the stars dressed as each other, or as some pretty creative characters.

While we normally like to see Miley Cyrus more covered up, we loved her costume of Lil’ Kim. Frankly, wish I had the guts to wear it. But Miley herself became a costume for Paris Hilton. Check out our gallery below to see some of our favorite costumes from this year including Miley and Paris, as well as Jennifer Morrison, Lauren Conrad, Chris Colfer, Sarah Hyland, and more.
