Around this time each year, the Emmy Awards come around to celebrate every bit of excellence that goes into creating television’s most-loved series.

This year, beloved shows like Only Murders in the Building, The Bear, The Crown, and even Baby Reindeer are all nominated with the hopes of receiving their flowers. Moreover, countless stars — including Selena Gomez, Reese Witherspoon, and Ayo Edebiri — will be on the red carpet ready to celebrate their recent on-screen projects.

When it comes to the go-to Emmys glamour, A-list celebrities tend to keep their hair and makeup looks timeless, chic, and perhaps with a touch of Old Hollywood. That being said, there are always a few standout looks that tap the most current trends and eye-catching colors, taking their evening vibe to cool new heights. And given that fall 2024 is defined by vampy lips, Y2K-esque cool tones, and the like, the girlies are sure to come in hot with the Pinterest board-worthy inspo.
