I loved the way Cameron Diaz looked and I know all the critiques agreed that she looked fabulous. She has really evolved, looking grown up and classier than ever. Loved her hair, her great smile and simple accessories. Reminded me of the old glamorous movie stars.

Keira Knightley looked fabulous. Color cut and style, make up and accessories were perfect.

Anna Kendrick, my favorite celeb in pastel, looked soft and feminine like a Greek goddess. Sandra Bullock looked elegant but again a bit colorless, as did Kate Winslet. They both kind of looked like the Oscar award itself, never the less, still very beautiful.

An improvement from the last award show, Mariah Carey seems to always be “almost” there. The short part of the Valentino asymmetric dress hit her in the wrong place and made her look wide, short waisted and out of proportion. I despised the color. It was so blah. In my opinion, navy never really quite cuts it as an alternative to black, especially for an event like this. She goes from over done to not done enough and she still haven’t decided whether to accent her boobs or her legs. Both are just too much. I can’t help wondering who her stylist is. I did like her accessories and at least she didn’t look too boobalisious.

Maggie Gyllenhaal’s strapless blue hand painted print was pretty but would have been better suited for a tropical gala. The print looked too much like a beach towel. Strapless is in but there was too much space between the top of her shoulders and where the strapless top began. It needed a bit of padding or to be lifted. Her watch was also too big on such a delicate arm. Compare that to the beautiful muted print dress worn by Rachel McAdams which wasn’t over powered by the volume of fine fabric.

Although very dramatic, Vera Farmiga totally got lost in that dress. Talk about ruffle over kill! Loved the color. The back looked better than the front highlighting her ass…ets

Queen Latifah finally got it right. She was one of the best dressed. Perfectly pale and magical for her figure, finally getting the “girls” in the right place. The full base really balanced her broad shoulders and the high asymmetric beading brought out her waist line.

You can really appreciate the natural beauty of classy women like Meryl Streep, my utmost favorite actress, with mega talent and an abundance of class and style.  She always wears classic demure styles never needing a lot of glitz. She is an icon and women over sixty should follow her for style.

The Ugliest Dress Awards go to Zoe Saldana, a nightmare featuring Barney colliding with a Spanish dancer. The style was hideous and it didn’t do a thing for her body. What was she thinking? This is a great reminder of wearing what suits you rather than wearing a designer dress.

Diane Kruger’s black and crème mid sectioned ruffle dress was as unattractive as her severe hairdo. There was just too much going on and you don’t know where to look first. What a shame, she could have looked so much better.

Penelope Cruz would look great in a burlap bag which might have been a better choice. The color was great, but again way too over powering taking away from her beauty. There was too much fullness with too much rousing.

Charlize Theron… second on my fugly list. Why wear a dress that shows exactly wear your boobs are, as if we didn’t know? Made her look flat chested. At lease Madonna made them pointy to make a statement. Don’t like the fake blond hair style.

Jennifer Lopez, the queen of making the “booty” famous wore a beautiful gown with a little too much fabric at the booty having to keep pushing her pouf and train aside while just standing still. That would make a gorgeous modern Bridal gown.

Keeping it simple is always the best way to go as too much of anything is never good.

I love the color of the Queen’s dress but she desperately needs an appointment with a  bra fitter to be properly fitted for a bra that pushes her “girls” together providing a better shape and the illusion of a smaller waistline. That bra would have made all the difference in the world. You’d think being a celebrity she ‘d know or at least hire someone who knows.

And I would have enjoyed seeing a beautiful pair of shoes rather than having her gown sweeping the floor. It would have also created more volume at the base of the dress having it flowing freely giving a better balance with her full bust line. Also, a nice size brooch on the opposite side of her hair would have looked balanced and given it a nice touch- something big yet delicate looking and with lots of stones. Can you picture it? It would just make the dress come alive. And finally, a big bracelet would have finished it nicely. It would have to be of the same style as the brooch and worn on the opposite arm.

Wow! My Diva is slipping, literally! Mariah Carey almost suffered a second awards show embarrassment when she trapped her heel in her ridiculously long designer gown. Mariah appeared to have some trouble walking to the stage last night — but this time, should she blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol (as Jamie Foxx would say) or that extremely tight dress? The diva continues to looks fabulous since her come back, but that dress- which desperately needed to have the halter straps raised to support her Golden Globes. That dress would have been a better choice if she didn’t have to move while wearing it, at all. She should have chosen a dress and a pair of shoes she could have walked in. She looks fabulous either way, so why suffer? If you need help getting on stage to accept an award because you can’t gracefully manage your dress, something is seriously wrong. Being comfortable in what you wear is essential to looking great.  Her concentration should have been on swaying her curvy sexy hips and flaunting her great smile. She looks like she is just trying too hard, a big no-no in my book. Never the less, she is still a true diva.

Carrie Underwood is not only talented and naturally beautiful but is also such a “girlie girl”, a woman after my own heart. In her very flattering strapless cream and black dress she expresses her femininity with a funky chic punch. The delicate lace over lay doesn’t over power her so you can appreciate her lovely structure. She has truly been blessed in her gracious beauty and amazing talent.

Ellen DeGeneres, about to join Fox’s “American Idol” as a judge, won the “People’s Choice” award Wednesday night for favorite talk show host. I think she is very funny and I realize she doesn’t want to appear with a hint of femininity, but really, couldn’t Portia have suggested something more appropriate for her to wear rather than jeans and a sloppy shirt and vest to such a prestigious awards dinner. Perhaps she could have gotten some fashion tips from some of the well- dressed men who attended. I wonder what she wears to a casual event. Well at least she was very comfortable and remains true to her self and that I do admire. I think her and Jackie Chan, (although I did like his message of peace), should have gotten the “fashion flop” award for the most inappropriate outfit worn to a formal event.

Jenna Elfman- The 38-year-old actress who is expecting could have entertained many other options to flatter her new figure. I wasn’t big on this one. There are so many beautiful choices in maternity styles being featured. Showing off her legs would have created a good balance with the one shoulder look. I did not like the thick hose or leggings paired with an open sandal. Also, I prefer her as a brunette. What did you think?

Ginnifer Goodwin’s fashion accessory was way out of proportion. That flower was too large and distracting which took your focus away from her beautiful face. A delicate necklace or a stunning pair of chandelier earrings would have been a better choice. She looked a little like a wacky Carrie Bradshaw. Also, I would have preferred her dress a few inches longer which would have elongated her body making her look taller and thinner. Loved the shoes.

The red carpet was full of gorgeous women in their dazzling dresses, from Nicole Scherzinger’s floor-length gold number, my favorite, to Diane Kruger’s tight white mini, although I didn’t like the black shoes with that dress, too heavy looking. Olivia Wilde stole the show in her fairytale full skirt while Sandra Bullock went nude, although I thought the shoes were too chunky for the dress, and Carrie Underwood had the best accessory of all, her engagement ring,

Many handsome men joined the fabulous women on the red carpet last night as they kicked off the night in style. Christian Slater dressed all in black while Jesse Spencer kept it casual with no tie. Kellan Lutz shimmered in his blue jacket and Taylor Lautner, my favorite, looked dashing in his suit. There is nothing more attractive than a man in a well fitting suit. They were all wonderful combos on great looking guys. Don’t you agree?

Mary J Blige arrived in a taupe asymmetrical dress before changing into a black power dress with eighties shoulder pads to perform. Remember those days? I felt she was one of the best dressed at the awards wearing that beautiful dress that complimented her figure so well. The length and color were great for her body style as well as her accessories, (too bad the tribal band tattoo spoiled it for me a tad). She is one very classy and sexy lady even without showing cleavage. The rousing on the side of her dress was a great way to camouflage a bit and add great curves to her hourglass figure.

Okay, let’s talk about is Hayley Williams. From the back she looked fabulous. The lines on the back of her dress worked well for her figure and her legs and shoes are dynamite. But the front of the dress, with all those big bows, left a lot to be desired. She looked like a present to pretty to unwrap. I especially did not care for the fullness of the skirt, made her look to round around the hips. Her fiery red hair and lips were screaming, “look at me, I’m the new Cindi Lauper”. She definitely embraced her punk-rock spirit in this vintage-inspired black dress. And, she didn’t need a necklace. There was already a lot going on.

And finally Sophia Vergara looked stunning in her charcoal gown. It was a perfect choice for her figure. The bust line fit very well and the chunky jewelry balanced her full breasts and long hair. You could just tell she felt beautiful by her comfortable pose and soft smile. She stepped on to the red carpet wearing a Bodycon dress from a recent collection, it was one of the first major red carpet moments for the burgeoning brand.
Sofia paired the minimal, sexy dress with a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes, vintage jewelry, and a vintage clutch. She also joked that she was vintage, too – but even if that were true, she doesn’t look it. Not in that dress, no way.

Hope you enjoyed my comments. Let me know what you think and if you agree?
