Have a very Happy Christmas and New Year.

I am taking a break, but will be back soon, although I will be regularly checking your comments.

I can’t wait to bring you all the red carpet action in 2009, especially during award season.

Thanks for all your support during 2008.

    Awesome list!What more can i say..you’re taste is impeccable! Thanks for reminding how stunning Gisele was in that Versace and Carine in that Balmaine (love it). The only one i’d change is Renee Zellweger but anyway..this year’s been full of great dresses with some disasters and it’s been great seeing all these on your fantastic blog..soooooo Marry Christmas and Happy new year, which i hope will bring even more fantastic fashion choices ;)

    I love all your choices apart from numbers 3 and 10. I’m not too keen on them, but overall, I much prefer your choice to the reader’s choice.
    Lucy Lui, number 3 and Eva Mendes just look perfection.
    I love this blog so much, and have definitely become an avid reader. Keep up the good work in 2009!

    Camilla Belle looked amazing in that amazing Armani dress, i so agree with you.

    BUT, i just can’t believe that that Balmain dress is at #3, it’s horrible imo.

    Phew..thank for not totally hating it.

    I was not sure it would appeal to everyone as it is so different from the readers choice.

    Carine in Balmain would have definitely been on my list aswell!!

  12. Lexii says:

    Wow. I totally do not agree with many of those! With all the STUNNING outfits of the year, # 3, 5, and 7 do NOT belong. While Camilla Belle looks gorgeous, she certainly did not deserve number 1!

    I love you FC, but I’m disappointed.

  13. Lara says:

    The list is perfect! Camilla Belle, Diane kruger and Anne Hathaway are my top favorites of this list.

    Thank you of making such an effort to this site, i check it every day!

    Merry Christmas and happy new year!:)

    Love your top 10. Very interesting. I had forgotten how much I had loved #2 and #7! Thank you for the great end of the year recaps. You do such a great job with your blog, I look forward to reading it everyday and I look forward to your upcoming posts in the new year. Have a very happy new year!

    How can you be taking a break? What will I do without your posts?
    I’m obsessed – I sometimes check your blog 5 times a day just to see, if there’s something new. And now you want to give me a detox…

    But still, I want you to know that I loved your 2008 lists and I wish you Merry Christmas and everything fashionable for the whole next year and longer.

    LOL @ Rimini

    Lexii, what can I say. I am sorry you are disappointed, but I knew not everyone would like my list which is why I did a Readers Choice list.

    Yes, my choices of Kate Bosworth, Lucy Liu and Carine were edgier than most other Best Dressed list, but these are the dresses I truly loved.

    As for Renee, that dress stayed in my memory because it was not Carolina Herrera for a change.

    I still love ya thou’ ;)

  17. Fashion Critic says:

    LOL @ Dominika.

    I promised my sister that I would not touch a computer whilst I am home for Christmas, she made me swear on Chanel ;)

    I will be detoxing as well. I don’t know what I will cope without my blog and google reader for 5 days.

    I just hope my sister does not count my blackberry as a computer.

    I adore your list, many of these would enter my top of the year too. Gisele, Carine, Cate, Diane. I find it hard to make a top 10, I always end up with a top 20.

    Merry Christmas to you! Have a nice break, I so envy anyone with a christmas break right now. I’m working so hard this time of the year. Enjoy!

    Your blog was my one of internet finds of the year, It’s great to read your comments on the red carpets. Keep up the good work on ‘09.

    Oh, you meant Christmas break! What a relief! I though longer break, like a month or so.

    I think just for the Christmas I will manage somehow ;p

    Thank you for two amazing blogs, I don't know what I would do without them.

    I understand you want to have a break, but does that mean you won't even update the Beckham blog? 'Cause I don't know how I will find out what the Beckhams do without it.

    What about Olga Kurylenko? I loved all her dresses, especially the ones you thought were amazing and perfection

    the only disappiontment is Kate Bosworth. I don’t consider her stylish at all. Very Bad Pick!

    Thankx for a wonderful year.

    Great list ! I had forgotten about a lot of the dresses that you picked, so it was a pleasant surprise to see a few in there that I had really liked, especially Cate, Diane and Camilla.

    Hope you enjoy your well deserved break…. :)
