Oscar the Grouch

I wait all year for the Oscar's. So, I get a little testy when it doesn't live up to my expectations. OK, my expectations may be a little unrealistic, but come on, this is supposed to be Hollywood's most glamorous and Hollywood-tastic night. Last night marked the first time I have EVER gone to bed before the Best Picture is announced. So, I give it an F. Blah.

With all that negativity, I still have to give some kudos to the guys and gals for their outfits. The Red Carpet coverage totally blew, so I had to do quite a bit of web surfing to make my final decisions. Man, what is wrong with the world? Maybe I should still try to be a stylist even if I am over 40. Here's a go at my picks:

Best Dress

Charlize "J'Adore Dior" Theron

Best Dress - Runner-up

Naomi Watts

 

Best Dress - Second Runner-up

Jennifer Lawrence

 

Best Dress - "I have no idea who this is but she's pretty" Award

Alicia Vikander

Best Dressed Man

Daniel Day Lewis

 "Dapperist"

Eddie Redmayne

In My Tribe

Awards season is upon us - yippee! I love the red carpet so...and so do lots of my girlfriends. In an effort to get some conversation going during this year's battle over best dressed for the Golden Globes, I decided to ask my tribe who they thought did it best. After all, I'm not the only one with an opinion.

Their picks:

Jessica Alba in Gucci (top vote-getter)


Salma Hayek also in Gucci


Charlize Theron in Dior


Nicole Kidman in Versace


Julianne Moore in Chanel Couture (jealous!)


Diane Lane in Elie Saab


My picks:
The aforementioned Diane Lane - how does she still look so good??

Rooney Mara in Nina Ricci (gratuitous black dress award since I looooove black dresses and French design houses)


And the eye candy award goes to Adam Levine in Tom Ford (aka God)


Thanks, ladies - appreciate you playing!

P.S. if you want a good look at a lot more dresses, Huffington Post has a nice little gallery with some of the dresses we didn't see on the tube.
