Cameron Diaz on Oscars 2012 Red Carpet in Gucci

Love the color and sequins on Cameron Diaz’s fitted strapless Gucci gown at the 2012 Oscars. It’s a bit tight through the waist but I think the color is really pretty on her. Really love the bottom.

Emma Stone Oscars 2012 Red Carpet

Emma Stone was stunning in her fuschia Giambattista Valli gown with a gathered bow at the neck on the Oscars 2012 red carpet. Her Louis Vuitton jewels were also fabulous! She has such a great and unique fashion sense. Love!

Gwyneth Paltrow at Oscars 2012 Red Carpet in Tom Ford Dress

As everyone knows, I’m a huge Gwyneth Paltrow fan. And she looked gorgeous on the Oscars 2012 red carpet. Her Tom Ford column gown is gorgeous!

Tina Fey on the Oscars 2012 Red Carpet in Carolina Herrera

I’m a big fan of the custom Carolina Herrera dress that Tina Fey wore on the Oscars 2012 red carpet. She’s made some questionable fashion choices in the past, but she looks gorgeous.

Jessica Chastain Oscars 2012 Red Carpet — Alexander McQueen

Jessica Chastain looked AMAZING on the Oscars 2012 red carpet. Her gold and black Alexander McQueen gown and Harry Winston jewels were FABULOUS. And her hair and makeup were flawless.

Recent Red-Carpet Commentary: Jennifer Aniston, Selena Gomez, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Ali Larter and Others

A couple of recent red-carpet looks and my thoughts on each…

Jennifer Aniston at Daily Show taping

We all know I love Jennifer Aniston’s style–and this look is no exception. I think this black Nina Ricci dress is super cute, flirty and fun. And while she’s five minutes away from being too old to wear it, I think she looks fab. (Not the hugest fan of the shoes however.)

Ali Larter

Ali Larter had a baby around the time Kai was born. And needless to say, she looks AMAZING–it’s hard to believe she gave birth just six months ago. I think she’s gorgeous–and while I don’t love her dress, I think her hair and makeup look great. And I covet her shoes.

Jennifer Love Hewitt in Herve Leger by Max Azria

Yikes! Usually I’m a huge fan of Herve Leger dresses–in fact, if I had the figure to wear bandage dresses, I’d live in Herve Leger. But this isn’t working. Perhaps the dress is a size too small? And the top part? All wrong. (She does have great hair though.)

Ashley Greene wearing a nude lip

Ashley Greene is almost always photographed wearing red lipstick but in this photo, she’s wearing a sheer pink gloss–and it looks amazing! Greene is gorgeous but at times I’m distracted by what feels like heavy makeup. And this is a refreshing look for her. Check plus.

Selena Gomez is pretty in purple

Selena Gomez is only 18 years old but she’s one of the best dressed celebrities this year. She always looks classy and cute. I can’t wait to see how her style evolves and pray she avoids the path previously taken by Miley Cyrus.

Pippa Middleton in Tania black knit dress

Pippa Middleton’s maid of honor dress at the Royal Wedding was drop-dead gorgeous–but she’s yet to hit another high note (in my opinion.) Until this little black number. Middletown looks super cute in this Tania black knit dress. Young, flirty, fun… perfect. I wonder if it’s a fluke or if she’s back on track…

Katie Holmes Nails It in Midnight Blue Dress

I already wrote about this dress for Popeater.com, but I loved it so much I thought I’d give it some extra love on the Hot Pink List.

The basics:
Dress: Contrarian
Shoes: Lanvin
Bracelet: Lanvin

This dress is gorgeous and Katie looks sensational in it. The color is great, the shoe color is perfect and her hair and makeup complement the whole look very well.

Check plus, Mrs. Cruise, check plus.

Love the nude heels Katie paired with the dress

Love Katie's hair and makeup

Pockets!! Lovelovelove the pockets.

***My very hip and stylish friend Ann Marie just told me this dress is available at Singer 22 in lavender. The price is surprisingly just $381!

 

Jessica Szohr Looks Cute, Right?

I was recently reading one of my favorite all-time blogs, Go Fug Yourself, when I came across this photo of Gossip Girl star Jessica Szohr at the premiere of her new film, Piranha 3D.

GFY didn’t really like, though I thought she looked super cute!

I’m not usually a huge fan of Jessica Szohr — her character on Gossip Girl is getting tired and she always looks so pained. But I can’t disagree that she is gorgeous and that this color red looks sensational on her. The layers of the dress seem perfectly placed — not too flowy, not too overwhelming — and the bow around the waist works with the rest of the dress. I don’t love the shoes though I don’t hate them either. The bag is fine.

Jessica also scores high points for her hair and makeup here. With a dress with that much personality, the hair needs to play second fiddle — which I think she’s done well here. Heavy eyes with a nude lip also compliments the look nicely.

What do you think of her dress?

Celebrity Check Plus: Megan Fox

I went through a phase where I really liked Megan Fox. I thought she was crazy hot, funny, and pretty open about how she felt about things which I think is kinda refreshing (even if everyone else thinks it’s a bit abrasive.)

But soon enough, I got a little bored with her. Mostly because she was EVERYWHERE. But then she dropped out of sight(ish), went to Hawaii, and got married. And we didn’t hear peep from her. Granted, her ‘Johah Hex’ press tours are done and she’s got nothing to promote so there’s no real reason we should be hearing from her, but still, she’s stayed somewhat under the radar and it’s been a nice break.

Anyway, she popped up last night at the VH1′s Do Something Awards and she looked ABSOLUTELY AMAZING.

Even longtime Megan Fox haters can’t deny that she looks fabulous here. Her dress–a modest, pretty, and sweet Azzedine Alaia–is so unlike her regular red-carpet gear that it’s almost jaw dropping in its effect.The color is unusual–and perfect with her sunkissed skin, dark hair, and perfectly-applied makeup. Even the matchy-match Brian Atwood shoes look good.

Fox looks mature–and it’s becoming on her. It’s proof she can pull off pretty, NOT just sexy and/or sultry.

I hope this is the first of many sharp looks to come.
