This or that?: Blazing start to the award season
RED CARPET
The Game of Thrones beauty hit the red carpet looking fit for royalty. Emilia wore a sheer, floor-length black Valentino dress with a high-neck that made her seem like a princess. The on-trend mock neck, beaded florals and a trailing cape donned over the shoulders were simple yet elegant. And the best part was that Emilia kept everything to a minimal. To balance out the stiffness of the dress, her makeup was simple, with just a hint of crimson blush on the cheeks for a flushed, glowy look. Her complexion looked radiant as ever, with a touch matte concealer to conceal the blemishes and thin black eyeliner. The diva’s eyes were framed with shimmery, taupe shades of eye shadow. A rosy pink pout added the fairy-tale charm she had certainly opted for. Half-tied hair and a pair of intricate silver earrings completed her understated look. Ten on ten to the starlet for kicking off the awards season with such a great ensemble.

AFTER-PARTY
After a fast wardrobe change, Clarke once again turned heads at HBO’s Annual Post Golden Globes Party. The actor was beaming in a sultry, figure-hugging pale blue dress by Dolce & Gabbana. The strappy dress featured elaborately embroidered poppies and daisies along its bodice and waistline, accentuating Emilia’s sizzling frame. To complement the bright hues of red and plum, she opted for a vibrant, glossy red lip colour, looking stylish as ever. Once again, her hair was left half-tied, although she changed her eye makeup from smoky to a shiny, gold party look. We loved how Emilia opted for two vastly different looks for both the events and yet, maxed both with on-point finesse.
