June 1st, 2009

Best Dressed Award
This is the impact I wanted Cameron Diaz to make, but instead that honour goes to Sienna Miller.

I love the sea green colour of her Swarovski-encrusted Twenty8Twelve Fall 2009 dress.

The length is perfect to show off her pins, and the shoulder pads are subtle enough not to draw any Balmain comparisons.

The Brit actress carried a silvery Chanel clutch, and wore pair gorgeous Nicholas Kirkwood gold heels, to complete this stunning look.

I Don’t Follow Red Carpet Rules Award
If we expected Kristen Stewart to wear a cute pink mini dress, with silver strappy sandals, we were wrong.

She hit the red carpet wearing a Yigal Azrouël Fall 2009 red and black dress, with a cross cross detail on the sheer yoke, and a wide black belt.

I can imagine her being wrestled into this dress, and her stylist compromising on the Converse sneakers, but she totally rocks this look.

Best Black Award
Leighton Meester took a risk at the Costume Institute Gala, which didn’t pay off for me, but this edgy cut-out Emilio De La Morena Spring 2009 dress totally works.

This interesting dress has peek-a-boo parts, sheer panels, folds, and cut-outs, which Blair Waldorf wouldn’t approve of, but totally love.

She completes her look with Brian Atwood Brie purple suede ankle boots.

Risk That Paid Off Award
Taraji P. Henson certain got into the spirit of this fun awards ceremony, wearing a black and white strapless printed Roberto Cavalli Spring 2009 bustier dress.

The part French maid, part Chinese porcelain inspired look is definitely daring, and with her fun-loving personality she totally pulls it off.

I love how she plays up the ruffled detail on the back of her skirt, and her punky spiky new ‘do.

Moving Out Of Her Comfort Zone Award
This Moschino Fall 2009 red and navy floral print sleeveless dress with a ruffled hem, seems a little out of Lauren Conrad’s comfort-zone, which I really appreciate.

It feels a bit dark and mysterious, which is complemented with dark red lips, and black strappy booties.

I only wish she had pulled her hair back, to show off the floral shoulder detail.

Best Use Of Colour Award
I love to see bold bright colours on the red carpet, which is why I love Vanessa Hudgens peach satin Max Azria dress.

The dress is very grown up, but she injects her youthful glow and enthusiasm, to make this a perfect red carpet look, which she pairs with Jimmy Choo shoes, and a Nancy Gonzalez bronze clutch.

I really glad she didn’t go full on boho, with a printed maxi dress, which we’ve seen many times from her.

Hate The Hair, Love The Dress Award
I love Megan Fox’s black and gold Dolce & Gabbana strapless brocade cocktail dress, which she had shorten. It really suits her dark, mysterious persona, plus it shows off her toned figure.

She wisely kept accessories to a minimum, and added a bit of spice via her Christian Louboutin Differa sandals.

The biggest downsides are her hair, overly orange glow.

Best Theme Award
At first I hated Ashley Greene’s hair, but then I realised how much it worked with what appears to be a 40s housewife theme.

The hair works with her alluringly form-fitting Dolce & Gabbana floral print dress, with a beautiful, yet subtle voluminous skirt.

A neon yellow clutch, and bold red lips, add a touch of bright colour.

The Kate Beckinsale “This Is Not The Oscars” Award
I was really surprised to see LeAnn Rimes wearing such a formal gown by J.Mendel to the MTV Movie Awards.

She looks beautiful, she really does, but she’s a little overdressed.

Most Vanilla Award
Miley Cyrus opted for a very soft look for this event. I would’ve expected something with a lot more attitude, but she looks lovely in her pale pink cowl neck Moschino Cheap & Chic dress, which had a ruffled detail, going down her back.

The only hint of the wild rock wannabee Miley, was via her rings and bracelets.

Best Re-Run Award
I love Ashley Tisdale’s purple leather Elise Øverland dress, and the accessories she picked really punch up the look, especially those lust worthy Paul & Joe Sister heels.

We’ve seen this look before on the red carpet, but as Ashley wears it so well, that all is forgiven.

Surprisingly Not Predictable Award
I would have expected 3 things from Audrina Patridge.

1. Something low cut
2. Her black Alexander McQueen Bow Clutch
3. Her Balmain studded heels.

She blows that out of the water wearing a loose fitting paillette covered Joey Tierny Couture dress, with a dove grey Alexander McQueen clutch, and cream Louboutin heels.

Nice Dress, Shame About The Shoes Award
Keke Palmer’s look was almost perfect. I really loved her coral embellished Elise Øverland dress. It’s young, it’s fun, it sparkles, and it summery, but those grey booties lose her many points.

Stand Out Award
Malin Akerman stood out the most, because she is the only one who opted for pants, wearing a crisp, white Dolce & Gabbana suit, with a pale blue corset.

Her hair was sleeked back to complete this sophisticated look, which she didn’t over accessorize.

Most Summery Award
Yes Paris Hilton needs a new clutch and shoe combo, but there’s no denying her vibrant vest for spring and summery colours.

I love her cute coral Jenny Packham Spring 2009 strapless mini, with its ruffled skirt, and gold embroidered bodice.

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun/Au Natural Award
Monique Coleman must have sensed when she looked in the mirror, that she would get ridiculed for her hair.  I admire her for ditching the extensions, and going au natural. I can’t see many others sporting this look.

Her Christian Louboutin Spartenvol Strass sandals complemented her silver and black spacey mini tutu dress, which you may all hate, but I will take this over a mini dress with tights any day.

She wanted to have fun at this event, and it shows.

Worst Dressed Award
White sequin’s. I’ve never liked white sequin’s, as they cheapen any look.

I’m a huge fan of Miranda Cosgrove, she has such a fun loving approach to the red carpet, but on this occasion her white and gold sequined Sass & Bide Pre-Fall 2009 dress really lets her down.

Biggest Let Down Award
Looking at Cameron Diaz, I have only one question. What happened to you?

I was so looking forward to seeing Cameron upstage everyone at this event, as she usually blows us away. Remember her Luella polka dot mini?

Her look included deep rinse J Brand jeans, an animal print Matthew Williamson top, and blue suede ankle Giuseppe Zanzotti boots.

De Ja Vu/Christian Siriano Does Design More Than One Dress You Know Award
I’m so tired of seeing this Christian Siriano dress in various colours and lengths on the red carpet.

Christian has produced 2 collections, CariDee English could have really picked something else.

Despite all that, it’s a great mix of colours, but I hate her shoes.

Most Blah Award
Anna Faris doesn’t seem to get it right on the red carpet. Some times she’s too cutesy, others too casual, and on this occasion, blah.

No spark, no pizazz, no personality, and we all know she has plenty of that, which is why this is such a disappointment.

It’s Just Not Working Award
I’m always rooting for Rumer Willis, I don’t know why I have such a soft spot for her.

Maybe because I know she’s trying, but it just doesn’t seen to ever work, like with this black one-shoulder patchwork geometric print Emilio Pucci dress. Great dress, but she fails to make it work for her.

She needs to take a leaf out of Coco Rocha’s book, and go back to black.

Tights? In This Heat? Award
I love Sandra Bullock’s Abaeté Fall 2009 dress. The print reminds me off a midnight starry sky, but she can’t be seriously wearing tights.

I know I go on about tights, but they totally ruins this look for me.

I Just Can’t Take You Seriously Award
I think the title sums up how I feel about Lil Mama’s look.

Just Wish It Wasn’t Black Award
Hayden Panettiere wears such a cute Ungaro Spring 2009 dress, but come on girl, it’s summer.

Something in white, nude, or pink would have shown off her Cannes glow.

Sarah Jessica Parker looked amazing in her L’Wren Scott Fall 2008 turtle-neck dress when she walked the gold carpet at the MTV Movie Awards on Sunday, but I was more mesmerized by her booties.

These Christian Louboutin for L’Wren Scott white quilted boots were one of the most talked about fashion choices of the night along, with Charlize Theron’s Roger Viver gladiator heels.

No doubt their is already a waiting list for these beautiful boots, which will also be available in black.

June 2nd, 2008


Padma Lakshmi was the first to wear this very feminine pink Lanvin Spring 2008 strapless toga dress, when she attended the Baby Mama premiere during the Tribeca Film Festival.

The TV presenter, who owns many Lanvin dresses, accessorized her dress with a pair of gold strappy sandals, a gold chain belt and a gold clutch.

Lord Of The Rings actress Liv Tyler, wore the same dress last night to the MTV Movie Awards.

The recently single actress wore her dress with a matching pink clutch and animal print Louboutins.

I am not crazy about Padma’s belt, so Liv wins this one for me.

Best Dressed Award

Charlize Theron wore this silver metallic Proenza Schouler Pre-Fall 2008 bustier with black super skinny pants.

The actress wore a sexy pair of Roger Vivier heels.

Best Boots Award
Sarah Jessica Parker looked amazing again last night, wearing a chocolate shimmering L’Wren Scott Fall 2008 turtleneck dress. Only SJP can get away with wearing a dress this tight.

Check out the white lace up Louboutin boots. Of course they are not out yet. A Fall preview perhaps?

Best Couple Award
Zanessa aka Vanessa Hudgens and Zac Efron did not walk the yellow carpet, but they were snapped together.

Vanessa wore a summery plunging neckline sea shell-patterned Diane von Furstenberg dress, and her beau, Zac wore a navy blue sheen suit and white shirt by Moschino Uomo.

Best Style Transformation Award
Who would have thought lil’ Miss Anne Hathaway could pull off such an edgy look?

From the neck down she is almost unrecognisable in her edgy one-shouldered Sophia Kokosalaki black dress.

Best Hair Transformation Award
Audrina Patridge was determined to make an impact on the red carpet following her fall out with Lauren Conrad, and she successfully accomplished that with her new bangs.

I like her new ‘do, as her head does not appear to be as long and round.

Her navy satin dress is by Lloyd Klein.

Pretty In Pink Award
Liv Tyler wore a cute bubblegum pink Lanvin strapless toga dress with a gathered hem.

She carried a pink clutch, and wore a animal print pair of Louboutin heels.

Best Ruffles Award
Rocker Lucy Walsh just about pulls off this Christian Siriano Fall 2008 halter-neck purple ruffled dress without looking too much like an ostrich.

Best Couple Coordination Award
Paris Hilton and Benji Madden were perfectly coordinated in their black and white ensembles.

Paris wore a strapless Betsey Johnson lace embellished dress, which has a fitted bodice and a bubbled hem.

Keeping It Real Award
Well what did you expect Ellen Page to wear? Boob tube and mini skirt?

Last night she wore a black Suh-tahn leather jacket, black skinny pants and a white Suh-tahn t-shirt.

Best Herve Leger Award
OK, she looks like a blow up doll, but out of all the Herve Leger dresses that were worn last night, I loved the colour of this Adelisa strapless dress.

Best Use Of Colour Award
I love the multi-colours of Emma Stone strapless Blumarine dress. Her navy heels and orange clutch perfectly compliment her dress.

Best Silhouette Award
I love how this cobalt blue asymmetric dress from her own Lauren Conrad Collection, gives Lauren Conrad such a sexy silhouette. I did not know she had this body, as she always wears such loose fitting clothes.

Best Frenemy Award
Stephannie Pratt looks cute in this purple leopard print spaghetti strapped dress, but I am not sure about her sidewalk clutch.

Stephanie is obviously enjoying the benefits of being Lauren’s friend.

Best Bubble Hem Award
There were a lot of bubble hemmed dresses last night. But the uniquely quirky Whitney Port’s red brocade Nicole Miller dress, was by far the most interesting.

I love the contrasting chunky heels, which were interlaced with blue and yellow ribbon.

Underwear Is Called Underwear For A Reason Award
Jennifer Hudson looked beautiful in her Peter Soronen dress at the Sex And The City New York premiere. The dress gave the illusion of the bra peeping out of the dress, when it was actually built-in to the dress.

This dress is so low cut that her bra IS on display. This for me verges on the tacky side. Maybe if the bra straps were not showing I would have like this better.

Flashy to trashy in the space of 5 days. Which is a shame because her face is so beautiful, and her figure is amazing.

Victoria Beckham sported this pink bra on-display look last year.

Worst Weave Award
Why is Rumer Willis still persisting with these hair extensions?

She looks great in this black Herve Leger dress, it is just a shame that the hair lets her down.

Worst Pink Award
Megan Fox is a beautiful girl, but I bet if you crossed her she would kick your ass. Which is why I don’t buy this bubblegum pink lace prom Zac Posen Fall 2008 dress.

I get that the black tulle skirt was meant to make the dress more edgy, but is just does not work for me.

Worst Herve Leger Award
I do like Herve Leger dresses, but I tire of seeing them on people like Katherine McPhee.

Worst Hair Award
Lindsay Lohan took a lot of time to flat iron her hair, but it is a shame she could not have paid more attention to her roots.

Her lavender organza Dolce & Gabbana belted mini dress is very cute though.

PLEASE SACK YOUR STYLIST Award
I have been making this plea on behalf of Nikki Blonsky for a while now, and my prays are yet to be answered. Nikki is so much better than this.

The paisley-printed asymmetrical skirt is just not working for her.

Worst On Trend Award
Terri Seymour takes the jumpsuit trend and ruins it with this red strapless version.

What Happened To Your Stylist? Award
What happened to Rihanna?

She used to always be on my best dressed lists, now she is just blah in this Open Ceremony dress.

Lighten Up Award
I wish the Pussycat Dolls had worn something brighter, they usually do.

The girls are all wearing Dsquared².
