almost good...sooooo close.

these looks could have been great, but they are just destroyed by some minute little details, but come on that's where it's at! the details.

well, sandy bullock won an oscar! her speech had me in tears...i'm not sure if i agree with the choice, but she is a delightful human being and just deserves it. now, this marchesa dress... i want to love it, but i can't. the sleeves and the bodice are magnificent, but something about the wonky velour shiny skirt and the strange hair just bug me. so while i am so happy for her, i just can't love this...at all. 

now, i love this strange chanel haute couture gown, the neckline is just amazing! it's so different and wild and sexy. the jewels are inane! the bracelets and the details along the neckline and back, I DIE!!!! so what you ask ruins this for me? well, do you see her insane nasty hair!? it's ridiculous. she looks a hot tranny mess... who let her leave the house like that? she has a freaking solar system on the back of her head. it's amazing she can even look forward. sjp, i'm not happy. 

gabby sidibe, the cutest, most talented young lady!!! also in marchesa, i think that this young lady rocked this gown... the color, sleeves, bodice, and skirt are just perfect on her, but...but... i am not digging the silver appliques. they seem so sporadic... i don't know, maybe more around the skirt or sleeve... i don't know, any ideas? i think she is brilliant and this is by far my fave from her during this award season. 

i'm not quite in love with this chick. amanda seyfried is freaking everywhere and i can't explain it, but i don't think i like her. she doesn't seem approachable, you know? like you wouldn't want to hang with her... maybe i am very wrong. this armani prive has some amazing details, but it's missing an it factor. her hair pulled back ages her a ton and her bracelets kind of look cheap...sorry, but they do! not the best, but the gown has an interesting something about it. 

jenny from the block is also in armani prive and looks better than she has in months!!! i don't mind the sillouhette on her, she gets this really edgy fresh hip ornament and still shows off her booty. the gown is still pretty boring, but what really does it for me is that hair!? what's going on? did she drive to the oscars with her head hanging out of the sunroof. flyaway, much? i am just bored. so freaking bored. damn you academy awards for ruining my favorite day with boring dresses. balls. 

whoa eyeliner! this gown is pretty fierce, even though it kinda swallows up teeny-tiny nicole richie. it's got that vintage boho vibe going on, super 70's and fablous...but why the freaking makeup overload!? and that hair...the flyaway baby hairs are just the pits. she seriously looks a thousand years old! she is so amazing, so this is just a freaking crying shame. 

eh? i know paula patton is still pregnant, but this carolina herrera is just so boring. the color is beautiful on her, but it's just missing something... maybe a crazy statement necklace or loads of bracelets. i shouldn't speak ill of the knocked up...plus, i don't want dr. jason sever's son, robin thicke, to torture me by singing in a vibrato for hours on end!!!! no please stop!!! too high!!!!

the sag awards: totally not awesome.

let me start by saying, i don't think that anyone i'm blogging about is all that terrible, in fact, i would say that most look amazing...the dresses are just a bit lacking. i mean there are definitely not fabulous, but none is flat out nasty...okay, maybe some are flat out nasty... read on.

holy lord. now, patricia arquette always looks a hot damn mess on the red carpet, but this is taking it to another level of gross! it's terrifying, she looks like a jolly green giant drag queen...scary. super scary. there is no redeeming quality. just bad. bad. bad.

ok, this is pretty bad. julia louis-dreyfus usually looks so nice and simple on the carpet, but this look is so fashion school project gone bad. the nude fabrics with the sheer black overly were in a few years ago, but there is a definite reason why they went away. this just looks icky. even her little black purse looks cheap and i am positive it wasn't. she on the other hand looks amazing, seriously her body is fierce.

now at first glance toni collette in rafael cennamo was going to be in the best dressed...upon further inspection i was let down a bit. her hair and makeup are outrageously fabulous and in the close up on the left she is just perfection, but the shape of the gown is super unflattering, it just makes her look like she's shaped like mrs. potato head. there isn't enough definition in the hip to be a mermaid, but it also doesn't work as a ball gown...she just looks like she has a poopy diaper. but man from the boobs up, she is smoking.

i don't know what it is, but i neeeever like christina applegate on the red carpet. she always just seems to play it soooo safe and pretty. this just seems boring and i do not like the color. it's roberto cavalli, so that's probably why i am having flash backs to just last week with heidi's powder blue cavalli disaster. but i suppose she looks nice, just not wow!

tina fey, won again, big freaking surprise. it seems she busted out an old bridesmaids dress for the occasion. the purple ferragamo is predictable and nothing new. her hair and makeup do look very well done.

michelle monaghan is a hottie, i mean she used to be a model, of course she's hot, she's also known for wearing really cool, super hip runway dresses on the carpet. now, i can't seem to find the designer, so if you know speak up, but i just can't get into this. i love the idea of this dress, but the bagginess of the one sleeve looks super 70's in a bad way and the hemline just makes me want to gag...plus, what are those shoes? i love the color and the sparkle...i mean the ombre doesn't even bother me...it's just off. but dear lord, her hair and makeup look killer good!

glee!!! yay!! dianna agron has been everywhere, walking every read carpet and she hasn't really impressed me yet. and this edition by georges chakra isn't doing it for me. i mean, the right booby looks like it's sagging down to her lady business. now, even if that weird fabric thing wasn't there i feel this gown would just be boring at best. her hair and makeup are amazing, the lipstick is beautiful on her.

oh paula patton, mmm, mmm. this is just sad. when you are preggo in hollywood and you step out on the red carpet, everyone should know! body hugging fabrics that show the world, hey i'm pregnant!! when i first saw this i thought, wow she looks fat! isn't that terrible, then i read she was with child and i just couldn't understand why she would make herself look so much bigger. jen garner, jessica alba, kate hudson all rocked the red carpet when they were pregs. so, if i were her i would fire the stylist.

oh, meryl streep. now, to be honest, i don't hate this... i may even like it, but there is something about the whole look that seems off. i honestly can't tell you. maybe i wish the belt was navy or grey. maybe it's the hair or the earrings... i just can't place it...let me know if you figure it out.
