Well, where there’s an up…there’s, unfortunately a down. These Oscar choices were not made with the best look in mind.

The dress that Nicole Kidman brandished was beautiful, but just not the one for her. Marisa Tomei’s gown suggested that she was on her way back to the prom…Amy Adams dress was fine, but the necklace over the semi – mandarin collar??? No good. Helena Bonham??? What can I say, at least her shoes matched this time…(Golden Globes)

NICOLE KIDMAN – Christian Dior – Rabbit Hole

MARISA TOMEI – Charles James for Lily et Cie

AMY ADAMS – L’Wren Scott – The Fighter

HELENA BONHAM – King’s Speech

The 2011 Oscar red carpet was buzzing tonight with starlets donning their best in hopes of being the look for the evening.

Our opinion, whether simple or elaborate, these ladies hit the proverbial fashion bullseye…

HALLE BERRY – Marchesa

HAILEE STEINFELD – Marchesa – True Grit

GWYNETH PALTROW – Calvin Klein – Country Song

MILA KUNIS – Elie Saab Haute Couture – Black Swan

When award season rolls around, there are always celebrity fashion victims on the red carpet. This year’s Golden Globes ceremony produced more than usual…The insipid gauge ranged from too risque and eclectic to a simple ill – fitted garment or frankly, the wrong look entirely…

These are our picks:

JANUARY JONES – Versace

HELEN BONHAM CARTER – Vivienne Westwood

CHRISTINA AGUILERA – Zuhair Murad

JULIANNE MOORE – Lanvin

More often than not, when you see one bad look on the red carpet, the next ten will be absolutely FAB!!! With so many to choose from, we couldn’t list them all, so these are a few that made the cut of  ”Best In Show”… : – )

EVA LONGORIA – Zac Posen

ANNE HATHAWAY – Giorgio Armani Privé

HALLE BERRY –  Nina Ricci

CATHERINE ZETA JONES – Monique Lhullier

As the advertising for the new Oprah Winfrey Network states, “IT’S HERE!”.

Let’s admit it…Literally or figuratively, we’ve all grown up with Oprah. Hopefully, either way, the growth has produced a better outlook on our daily existence.

If not, you still have a chance to enlighten your perspective with show content that delves into topics from child / parent relations in the show “Kidnapped By The Kids”, tackling thought provoking U.S. issues with “Our America with Lisa Ling” or meeting some of the most successful people in the world through “Master Class”, as well as others.

Ms. Winfrey epitomizes the definition of a vanguard.

OWN (How cool is the acronym?)…I’ll be watching…Will you???

On many occasions celebrities will grace a red carpet in a print or pattern and usually it’s the ABSOLUTE wrong choice on ALL levels.

But, I have to admit for the premiere of “Biutiful”, Milla Jovovich looked extraordinary in a bold  and vibrant caftan ensemble.

LOVE!!!

Johnny Depp was spotted at the European premiere of “The Tourist” looking true to form…Dapper.

I don’t know if it’s his often eclectic attire, his gold tooth, long locks or ridiculously composed demeanor, but don’t you get the feeling he would be cool to hang out with???

Congratulations on the Golden Globe nomination!!!
