Fashion Winner

So typically, I feel as though Ms. Hathaway can be a little over hyped, but I loved her last night in the Armani Prive dress she chose for the Oscars.

For your Viewing Pleasure

Ok... so Angelina doesn't ever really take any risks on the Red Carpet besides her multiple visible tattoos, but she always looks exquisitely glamorous.  I was drooling over her beautiful emerald tear drop earrings and cocktail ring.  I thought that is was a great pairing to add some interest to her simple black dress.

Oscar Trends


Cold shoulder dresses were prevelant amongst last nights Oscar nominated actresses...

I loved Marisa Tomei's structural looking pleats on her Versace dress.

Gwyneth on Oprah

Sick in bed all day I have been a bit of a couch potato.  I happened to catch Oprah in my stupor malade and saw Gwyneth Paltrow's guest appearance.  The first half hour was devoted to Paltrow's diet and fitness regiment.  As kind as Oprah seems, I couldn't help but feel her contempt for Paltrow's lithe figure.  "You eat everything?!" exclaims Oprah.  "Yes" replies Gwyneth.  I am equally as dubious as she.  I don't care if she works out with Tracy Anderson two hours a day, you still don't look like that by eating "everything".

Grammy's 2009

Let me preface this by saying I actually did not watch the Grammy's because I was watching He's just not that into you  instead, but nevertheless I am hear to report on the evening's apparel.  To the right like water falling down on a delicate rose we have a very pregnant MIA dwarfing Katy Perry.  Normally Perry's fashion choices are more on the rebellious fun side (may I say sometimes verging towards garish), but tonight she opted for something a bit softer; and just as she feels about kissing girls, "I liked it".  
MIA on the other hand was her usual self and donned funky sneakers with her maternity frock.  I can't find it in me to say anything bad about this one.  I love her music, so fresh, good lyrics, good beats.  And her concert at Terminal 5 last year was still the best concert I've ever seen.

Really?

I had to blog about this because it is just too ridiculous to not talk about: a lip gloss that promises poutier lips and smaller hips. It is claiming to suppress women's appetites.  The gloss is infused with "hoodia" a natural appetite suppressant.  What's sad/funny is that if you see any girl putting this on,  you know they are desperately insecure.  Please girls, save yourself the embarrassment and leave it on the shelf at Sephora where it belongs.
