The Two Evas

Eva Longoria in Marchesa, another dress of hers that has to have a damn train on it.
Eva Mendes in Dolce and Gabanna

 

Hot Messes

Whoopi should have whooped Andre Leon Talley's ass for this satin bathrobe looking mess. We know Whoopi has no style, but she doesn't look bad for someone who doesn't possess any.

Anna Wintour. This woman doesn't look good in anything. A walking corpse of a witch.

Margherita Missoni. What is that, a skirt and an apron? 

Tina Fey who I guess couldn't be bothered! This woman is just so boring to me!

 

Sienna Miller in Emilio Pucci, the woman whose hair has never seen a good day, seen on the arm of a man whose hairline looks to have miraculously reappeared. 

Bar Refaeli (model and on/off squeeze of Leonardo DiCaprio) looking like she's headed straight for the Bar.

 

Oh Lord have mercy Kate Bosworth!! Is that netting with glitter swirls on it. Looking hideous in Michael Kors!

Jessica Biel is not killing it with that dress. It's all sorts of....just all wrong! Your man looks better than you sweets!

Alexa Chung HELL TO THE MUTHAEFFIN NO!!! Phillip Lim needs a bitch slap for that mess!

 

A Lil' Off But I Like It

Chloe Sevigny has always been off/quirky/original when it comes to her sense of style. I actually like this dress on her. 

Giselle Bundchen hits the red carpet in a woven leather dress. Staying away from the glam gowns and going edgy n sexy in Alexander Wang, I like it.

 

Blake Lively is working this ruffle one-shoulder blue mini Marchesa dress. Love it! Not sure about the shoes though Blake.

Kirsten 'I'm very awkward on purpose' Stewart, once again looks hella awkward on the red carpet. Love this Chanel dress, just not on her. Looks like something Rihanna could easily pull off.

 

Beautiful/All Right/OK/Predictable/Yawn/Whatever

Well done to Anne Hathaway for looking not so hungry this season. She does the princess look well. This beautiful Valentino gown doesn't have her looking too pale like she has done in many red carpet photos in the past.

Diane Kruger goes for a clean, figure hugging, floor length gown that she does great justice to. Sometimes less is more and Diane manages to pull this off extremely well with elegance and grace.

  

Jennifer Lopez looks stunning in this Zuhair Murad gown.

Oprah "I'm richer than all you bitches" Winfrey looks beautiful in an Oscar De La Renta creation. No that's not Steadman or her new boo folks. That's Mr De La Renta himself.

 

I am not a fan of Zoe "Jada Pinkett look-a-like, with a harder face" Saldana, although she is growing on me. Being a huge movie fan of well...um...movies, it's hard to see a new flick without Ms Saldana popping up in one. She looked elegant in this Calvin Klein design.

Kerry "trout pout" Washington looked aiight in a read dress. Don't know the designer, and didn't care enough to go and do my research. 

 

Kate Hudson showed off her new small boobs in a boring Stella McCartney dress.

I give you 3 guesses who Renee was wearing??? Carolina bloody Herrera. If you know what the stars are usually wearing, then you know Renee practically lives in this woman's gowns. Switch it up Renee, I'm beginning to think you're her only client.

 

Sarah Jessica Parker in Halson Vintage. Nice to see her taking a break from Oscar De La Renta for a while.

Thandie Newton reppin for the UK in Vivienne Westwood. She always looks so fresh faced. An effortless Zimbabwean/British beauty. 

 

The blah factor, Brooke Shields and Demi Moore in Michael Kors.

 

Gwen Stefani in her own L.A.M.B. creation. Jessica Alba in Sophie Thealett for GAP.

 

Kristen and Kristin

Kristen Bell (the chick from Heroes who had the 'electricity ability') in Diane Von Furstenberg.

Kristin Davis in a trailing black gown looking mighty awkward in the neck area with that pose.

 

Marion Cotillard and Naomi Campbell in Christian Dior. 

Naomi's weave is looking good, considering the hairline that's underneath that.

 

Is it me or does it look like Taylor Swift re-cycles the same damn dress and hairstyle every time she's on the red carpet or at an awards event??? Anyway she's in Ralph Lauren.

Since Nicole Ritchie, dropped Paris Hilton, became a mother of two she's been looking hotter and hotter. I'm having to double take at pictures of Nicole now as she is looking stunningly beautiful with the wavy brunette locks and long silver Marc Jacobs gown. I'll be paying close attention to Nicole, I've been very impressed by her lately.

81st Academy Awards - Red Carpet

It seemed as though there was a recurring them with white this year. Every year the ensembles seem less impressive to me.

Here are my favourite gowns. You can tell I like tapered waists and full floor length skirts.

Evan Rachel Wood [although too pale for this ensemble] scores point for looking classy, elegant and not overstated.

My WHAT THE HELL SELECTION

Jessica Biel: That's a dress you wear when you can't be bothered to get in shape to fit into the dress you want to wear. It's just so boring and bland.
Beyoncé Knowles: Why??? Just Why???
Tilda Swinton: At least you wore lipstick this year luv. There really isn't a hope in hell for you to ever get it right on the red carpet. Beats that black sack worn last year though.

Meryl, Taupe is not your friend.

How do you get it so right for the BAFTA's but so wrong for the Oscars? Not even a pretty face can pull off this awful ensemble. You should have just gone with a beautiful sari luv. It's like you were trying to mix traditional with haute couture and failed miserably.

Why does this woman keep getting invited with her TV presenter self. Hate the bleach blonde, hate the dress, hate the colour. Scarlet red looks better on you, which you've pulled off before with sheer elegance, this looks a tad bit..stank.

Angie sweetie. You could have pulled this out from your closet from a red carpet event from many moons ago and we wouldn't have remembered. You do black and this style all the time. This is hardly a knockout ensemble. Go back to being heavily pregnant and wearing Nicole Miller gowns, you looked stunning then.

Tulle gowns don't looks good on any woman in my opinion. This frou frou mess just aged you Vanessa by 20 years. YUCK!

Another tulle gown disaster. I would hate to be desperate for the bathroom and wearing this gown.

Daniel, Your woman looks like hot shit in hot pink!

Well It's Mickey Rourke. Seriously, what did we expect. 10/10 for staying true to yourself though.

My 'I just thought they were OK and nothing really to rave about' gowns

Virginia Madsen [in the red] I seriously rocking her red dress. She must have seen Sharon Stone pictured at the BAFTA's and decided to bite her colour choice of red for the red carpet.

Well done to the ladies that actually managed to do their hair. Cameron Diaz is a prime example of Academy Award hair no no's.
