I'm too tired to finish this tonight, but here are two of my worst-dressed.

1. You may wonder what the luminous Freida Pinto is doing on this list. I love the color of her dress, but that piece of fabric going over her shoulder almost looks as though it's strangling her, and the sleeve is fussy. This looks like several dresses smushed up into one.

2. Meryl Streep. This dress really has no shape, and it's about the ugliest color imaginable. Yuck!

5. Evan Rachel Wood. Wowzer! I think she looks absolutely amazing in this modern take on a Hollywood classic. I do with, however, that she would wear less makeup. Evan, sista, you are so beautiful, you don't need all that crap on your face!

6. Natalie Portman. I absolutely love the color of this dress, and it is simple but not boring. Natalie looks just wonderful.





Life is not going so well right now, so I'm going to do something totally different, just for fun. Here are my picks for best and worst dresses at last night's Oscars.


Best, in no particular order:

1. The stunning Penelope Cruz. Okay, if I was going to be real picky, I could say that the skirt looks a tad like sheer draperies. But no. I think this vintage Balenciaga gown is delightful, and Penelope has never looked better.

2. Sarah Jessica Parker. More often than not, I find her taste in outfits questionable at best. But I think she made a good choice here. Sure, it's a touch quirky, and yes her boobs look like they just grew three cup sizes (I'm sure there are some gel inserts hiding in the bustline there), but I think she looks like a stylish princess. At first I thought this dress was white, but it's just the palest possible shade of aqua. Yummy!

3. Marisa Tomei. There were loads of one-shoulder gowns on the red carpet, and this is probably the one with the most "WOW" factor. While not my personal style, I think this gown just makes you stop and look; it fits her beautifully; and Marisa looks phenomenal.

4. Miley Cyrus. Some people are going to love this gown, some will hate it. I doubt there will be much middle ground. Me, I think it is spectacular. I do think it's a bit too much dress for Miley, but hey, it is still spectacular. It is so totally different to anything I've ever seen on a red carpet. I love the neckline, the belt adds a funky touch, and the sequins and who-knows-what-else make me want to touch this dress. I think it is just fascinating!
