Fashion Review: Oscar's 2011

The Academy Awards have come and gone and now we can pore over the fashion! The Oscar's brought the usual mix of reds, whites/nudes and dark hues. I wish there was more risk taking but I'll take what I can get, so here we go...

Best Dressed

I am loving the shape, "boob" details (as Kelly Osbourne put it) and color of this Elie Saab dress on Mila Kunis - stunning!!!

Reese Witherspoon is channeling the mod look in Giorgio Armani Prive

Only Cate Blanchett could pull off this Givenchy work of art!

Camila Alves is wearing a modern Kaufman Franco ball gown

Hailee Steinfeld is wearing a Marchesa she helped design!

Honorable Mention

Jennifer Lawrence would be on my best dressed if this Calvin Klein dress didn't look incredibly similar to a Valentino Scarlett Johansson wore a few years ago (the Isaac Mizrahi fiasco)

Sandra Bullock looks great in Vera Wang though the lip color is a bit harsh

Gwenyth Paltrow in a liquid gold Calvin Klein

This is not a typical Rodarte on Natalie Portman, it's very demure which is perfect for this moment

Worst Dressed

A bad dress and worse hair on Melissa Leo wearing Marc Bauwer

Halle Berry a wearing a pretty shade of nude in Marchesa but the bottom looks too much like cotton candy

Nicole Kidman is very severe in Dior

Deborra Lee-Furness in what looks like a bird costume

Fashion Review: Grammy's 2011

The Grammy's were a fantastic showcase of wacky fashion. In honor of the Grammy's I've got a new set of designations, instead of best/worst dressed we got the Outrageous and Best Sparkle!

The Outrageous

Katy Perry is an angel impersonator in Giorgio Armani

Rihanna leaves little to the imagination in Jean Paul Gaultier

Lady Gaga pushed the boundaries once again emerging from her cocoon in a nude rubbery concoction with exaggerated shoulders. She changed into a black outfit with what looked like butt implants to receive her awards.

Nicki Minaj has a leopard explosion in Givenchy

Best Sparkle

Kim Kardashian in Kaufman Franco

Jennifer Lopez in Emilio Pucci

Heidi Klum in Julien MacDonald
