Jayma Mays at the 2012 SAG Awards

Jayma dazzled last night in a black Reem Acra gown.

Reem Acra Fall 2011 RTW

I think it's one of her best red carpet looks. Her makeup is especially gorgeous.

Well done, Jayma!

Emma Pillsbury Fashion ID - L'ezu Wedding Gown on Glee

Photo credit: L'ezu blog

Once again, Beverly Hills couture bridal atelier L'ezu has partnered with Glee to outfit Jayma Mays as Emma Pillsbury in a wedding gown for the episode "Yes/No."

L'ezu designer Patricia Nevil created the custom-made 1980s gown worn by Emma Pillsbury in "Mash-Up,"

as well as the wedding dress worn by Finn's mother, Carole Hudson, in "Furt."

Screencaps: Home of the Nutty

I'm glad we got to see the top of this gown in full, since the spray of flowers hid much of it during the episode. It's lovely.

I don't even know what this wedding dress is, and I don't care because all I saw was Sylvester and Bieste wearing those royal wedding hats. My favorite profile pic on facebook is me with the pink uterus hat, photoshopped onto my face. BRB, gotta go change it.

Okay, back.

Aw, it's the blue beaded cardi from Showmance. Misty water color memories. Of the way we were.

SCATTERED PICTURES!

Sorry. I get a little carried away with Streisand.

Eva Franco Master Mixologist Dress - $319.99

With all the talk of when characters first met, I love that they put Emma in a modified version of the outfit she wore when we first "met" her. Just perfect.

and J.Crew Featherweight Cashmere Cardigan - $100 (new colors)
