Best Dressed - 2013 Academy Awards

This has been the most difficult awards ceremony to judge because no one really brought it. Trends of the night: white/cream gowns, strapless, reds, minimal, and plain aka boring. Here are the best and worst of the 2013 Academy Awards. 



BEST OVERALL:


Charlize Theron (#1 of the night simply because she looks flawless. The dress isn't the best of the evening, but her overall look is sleek, chic, and absolutely gorgeous), Sally Field (a beautiful and chic gown. She looks better than most of young Hollywood)



BEST DRESS:


Kerry Washington (it's a very pretty gown. Kerry's caramel skin is lovely in salmon), Amanda Seyfried (apparently Anne Hathaway was supposed to wear a Valentino gown very similar to this. Well, in the Anne versus Amanda war... Amanda won hands down. We love the collar), Amy Adams (we've seen this dress before, but it's lovely on pretty Amy)



BEST HAIR:


Jennifer Lawrence (best up 'do), Reese Witherspoon (best Veronica Lake impression)


Jessica Chastain (best color and down 'do), Sandra Bullock (best straight, chic look)



WORST OVERALL:


Jacki Weaver (to start off, she looks like she was electrocuted. She needs to lay off of the botox. The dress is hideous. She looks like a sardine), Salma Hayek (how can you look this bad when you are one of the most beautiful women in the world AND you are married to one of the biggest fashion conglomerate owners? It's awful)


Halle Berry (the frosted tips are horrendous and haven't been seen since The Backstreet Boys. We were on the fence with the dress, but in the end the stiff shoulders did the look in. The dress would have worked if it had been sleeveless or strapless), Melissa McCarthy (one of the worst dressed stars out today. The gown looks like a jersey sack dress and her hair gives the impression that she stuck her head out of the window all the way to the ceremony)



WORST DRESS:


Catherine Zeta-Jones (the dress is a gold disaster. And, this is a little off the subject, but Zeta-Jones has aged A LOT. She barely resembles the drop-dead gorgeous girl of "The Mask of Zorro". What happened?), Jennifer Hudson (her rendition of "I'm Not Going" blew away the "Chicago" and "Les Miserables" performances, but this glittery, tacky gown reminds us of the 1992 Daytime Emmy Awards)


Nicole Kidman (the notoriously bad dresser does it again with a hideous, hideous, hideous... dare we say... gown), Zoe Saldana (she has taken risks before and we have yet to see them pay off. Just bad)



WORST HAIR:


Helena Bonham Carter (it's amazing she didn't make our worst dressed list, but she did keep to tradition by doing an awful up 'do. Wind tunnel), Renee Zellweger (what is going on with this lady? It's like she didn't even try and her mousy brown color is horrid. Blonde or brown! Pick one. BTW: what a complete let-down "Chicago" cast. All the stories about a "big" reunion and all you do is present an award? Boring, boring, boring)


Jennifer Garner (someone PLEASE tell her to stop doing this look. It doesn't work with her face and forehead. The middle part doesn't suit her. Please do a side part or get bangs), Adele (it looks like she was meant to go to the country music awards in 2000. Why so big and puffy?)



HONORABLE MENTION:


Naomi Watts (the cut of this dress is to-die-for, but the shimmery color is all wrong. She should have gone with a navy or dark purple. That would have allowed the cut to stand out), Jane Fonda (we like the cut and her body is banging, but the color is a little too yellow highlighter. A softer yellow next time, Fonda!)


Octavia Spencer (this could have worked in a different color. Also, she needed something to separate the top and bottom... a sash or belt perhaps), Samantha Barks (the dress is very simple, but it looks incredible on her body. She should have done something revolutionary with her hair)

Best Dressed - 2013 Golden Globes Awards

The 2013 Golden Globes were the best we've seen in years. Overall, everyone looked good. It was a actually a little difficult finding the "worst looks". Trends of the night: big flowing curls, sparkles, strapless and mermaid-cut gowns, creams, reds, and eggplant purples.



OVERALL BEST LOOK:


Claire Danes (#1 best look of the evening. She's absolutely gorgeous and for the first time, ultra sexy), Julianne Moore (a very close 2nd. This is an homage to her 2009 "A Single Man" look... both designed by Tom Ford)


Kate Hudson (she looks fierce and fabulous. Normally we don't love a busy collar, but she makes it look super sexy), Sally Field (she takes the best over-50 look. It's classy, pretty, and very flattering)



BEST DRESS:


Naomi Watts (it's right out of old Hollywood and Watts is ravishing), Lea Michele (we love the look and cut of this gown. We just wish that Michele toned down the orange toner)


Katherine McPhee (only a few people can pull off a dress like this. Former American Idol runner-up McPhee looks chic, sleek, and sexy), Nicole Richie (normally we try to steer clear of non-actors, but we really love this dress. It's too bad Richie went with an ugly hair color), Eva Longoria (forget that she is trying to pull an Angelina, the dress is gorgeous)



BEST HAIR:


Tina Fey (she looks as though she walked right off one of her Garnier shoots. Her hair is deliciously beautiful and the color looks great on her), Anne Hathaway (she took her awful "Les Miserables" cut and turned it into one of the best pixie cuts since Winona Ryder)


Julianna Margulies (best up 'do of the night. She really looks like Sandra Bullock at the 2012 Oscars), Rachel Weisz (gorgeous and luscious locks are her speciality)



OVERALL WORST LOOK:


Emily Mortimer (we don't even know where to begin. Her hair is not brushed and the dress makes her look like a shapeless disco ball), Alyssa Milano (putting a belt on a tarp does not a beautiful gown make)


The Ice-Capades Twins: Jennifer Lopez (it seems like another attempt at being edgy and ultra sexy. It just ends up looking pathetic), Julianne Hough (it's Miley Cyrus as a deranged swan)



The Family Drama Twins: Ariel Winter (just boring and ugly and the tiara headband is overkill), Halle Berry (she always goes for a risk and this time it did not pay off. The messy design plus the frosted-tips really don't do her justice)


Helena Bonham Carter (what would our list be like without our favorite "bad" dresser. Helena is ughhhh in a frock from 1985 and check out the lips clutch), Kristen Bell (this might have worked if she weren't pregnant... see Michelle Dockery's similar gown... someone should tell Kristen that less is more)



WORST DRESS:


Marion Cotillard (we adore this French lady, but this dress doesn't work. Maybe if it were all one length), Kerry Washington (it's a little bit 20s, but the vines and tentacles are just plain ugly), Jo Champa (it just looks big and dowdy)


Thandie Newton (for starters, her hair should be up... but we don't know if that would matter. The dress is too messy and too short), Olivia Munn (the design is ugly... plus the necklace doesn't work), Morena Baccarin (she's one of the most beautiful women on television, but Morena is wearing something Glenn Close would choose)



WORST HAIR:


Lucy Liu (the ratty braid look is always ugly), Michelle Dockery (a boring, puffy, unflattering 'do)


Kaley Cuoco (she looks like the bride of Frankenstein), Jessica Chastain (we love, love, love this ginger, but why did she do this to her hair?)


Jacki Weaver (her hair matches her eyebrows to give her that 'surprised' look. She must have consulted Nicole Kidman), Zosia Mamet (the middle part does NOT work for her face. Very unflattering), Naomi Watts (again with the boring, puffy coiffure)



HONORABLE MENTION:


Adele (she really knows how to dress for her body and she looks great. It might be better in a different, brighter color), Jennifer Lawrence (We like her hair and the color and cut of this dress. The only problem is the awkward protruding bustline, which was a huge trend last year), Megan Fox (we love to see a cream gown on a brunette. This one is just a little plain)


Helen Mirren (it's a little odd, but somehow it works on the Oscar winner. It reminds us of the dress Cate Blanchett wore at the 2011 Oscars), Jennifer Garner (the dress looked fabulous on stage, but it doesn't photograph as well. Jennifer should really rethink this hairdo. It's getting old and isn't the most flattering for her large forehead. We think she would rock bangs), Mayim Bialik (it's very 40s and we love it on her. We think it would be better in a baby blue or light lavendar)
