Entertainment, Advice, The Average Joe, and of course my own personal woes... What will I talk about? Who knows? I've decided that I need a larger space to record my countless rants. Like to hear it? Here it goes...

2010 Oscars' Best Dressed

This year, just about everyone seemed to get it right. However, the following are a few notable mentions, starting with the best of the best.

Jennifer Lopez - Armani Privé

Only J.Lo could pull off such an architectural runway masterpiece. She looks drop dead gorgeous in this pale pink luminescent gown and she knows how to strike a pose... VOGUE!!!
Tom Ford
Mr. Ford wearing his own creation is tailored to the T. Complete with a pocket square and gardenia on his lapel. Now this is a well dressed man.






Demi Moore and Elizabeth Banks look fantastic in these similar styled, ruffled creations by Versace...
Cameron Diaz - Oscar De La Renta

Ms. Diaz finally got it right. For once she doesn't come off as a bleached blonde, babbling airhead. She looks like a polished, sophisticated starlet. Now if she could only land a role to match the look.





Vera Farmiga - Marchesa
Say what you will about the ornate flamenco like ruffles of this Marchesa gown, but I think Vera was absolutely stunning in this number. You had to see it live during the red carpet preshow to get the full effect of this dress. Normally it would be hard to pull this off unless you are a statuesque runway model, but Ms. Farmiga did one helluva job. Kudos for making a bold choice!!!


Those who almost had it right...
Molly Ringwald

Bravo Molly!!! No one has seen you since you blew out 16 Candles but you showed up and showed out in this violet gown. While she looks stunning for someone who has been absent from the scene for quite some time, my only critique is... get some sunlight. It's as if this is the first time she's stepped outdoors since the 80's. She looks like Casper the Friendly Ghost.
Queen Latifah - Badgley Mischka

The Queen always wears flattering gowns that compliment her figure. The color of this dress looks fantastic against her skin tone. Where did she go wrong? The bottom half of this dress seems a bit too stuffy. I'm no fashion designer but perhaps a more tailored front with a fishtail would've worked, rather than this mermaid style. If it were black she would've reminded me of Ursula (Little Mermaid).
Sandra Bullock - Marchesa

The top of this dress is gorgeous. The detailed beadwork, down to the capped shoulder is exquisite. However this dress is just too damn gold. She looks exactly like good ol' Oscar himself. Additionally the fabric of the bottom half of the dress looks a bit tawdry. She was almost there... perhaps a different color?
Zoe Saldana - Givenchy

I really wanted to root for this gown because Zoe is such a beautiful girl. Once again the top of this dress was stunning. The crystal and bead encrusted bodice along with the differing hues were lovely, but I just can't help but to think of those ugly cabbage like flowers when I look at the bottom of this dress. She still managed to work it nonetheless.

Agree? Disagree? Who were your picks?
