Look At This F***ing Hipster

Lourdes Leon

If there’s one area in life that’s easier for celebrity children, it’s the confidence to walk out of the house wearing things that average teenage girls would never consider. We’ve seen it with Nicole Richie, Kelly Osbourne, Bruce and Demi’s girls, and of course, bourgeoning fashion icon, Lourdes Leon. It must take a serious set of cojones (metaphorical, of course) to walk out of the house lookin’ like this (and you should see what I just walked my dog in), but Lourdes does it all the time and with confidence. In fact, I think any day now she’s going to get mixed in with the commoners over at this blog.

More Oscar Red Carpet Uh…Beauty. And I’ll Eat A Spider If Angelina Jolie Wears A Color In The Next Thirty Days

Oh, Sophia Loren, time is a thief.  However, in the right lighting, and with a little distance on her, still a beauty.

Miley Cyrus-  I need your opinions on this girl because I feel conflicted.  Part of me feels like her dress contains the collective amount of embellishments that she should wear over the course of her entire career.

Angelina Jolie wore a black draped Elie Saab, old lady hair and general smugness.  However…emeralds on her ears.  Yes, those were real emeralds.  Holy shit!  As an aside, did you see her gaily laughing when Jennifer Aniston was onstage doing an uncomfortable bit with Jack Black?  Fakest.  Ever.

I’ve included a close up of Amy Adams necklace to ensure that you get me the right one.  It’s important that you know, for as long as I remain with Evil Beet, my every review of Anne Hathaway apparel is going to be the same:  beautiful from the neck down.  Lisa Rinna and Amanda Seyfreid dressed straight from the 1991 prom collection and, speaking of old, Penelope Cruz wore a dress that was sixty-years-old.  For real.

I thought Marisa Tomei’s dress was lovely and my favorite, Beyonce, looked like a gilded knockwurst.  Queen Latifah had full-body scoliosis and Robin Wright Penn deserves a mention since her husband didn’t during his Best Actor acceptance speech.  And Jessica Biel.  Someone, anyone, tell me why she played any role at the Oscars.  This is a command, not a question.  Other than her scintillating role as Mary Camden in 7th Heaven, what has she done?  Okay, maybe she’s done a few things but still, she’s famous by injection, isn’t she?

Let’s Talk Dresses!

Good Morning!  Did you watch the Oscars?  I did.  I thought Hugh Jackman did a great hosting job, the theater was beautiful and I will never understand one word that Penelope Cruz says.  I liked the new presentation format where former winners paid homage to the nominees.

Oh, and the dresses.  My initial morning after analysis of the Vanity Fair party dresses is as follows:

With the exception of Tilda Swinton who is expected to wear a disaster, the dresses were primarily pretty.  Trends included over-sized floppy bows and the color puce.

Sarah Jessica Parker wore a “barely mint” Dior that was beautiful but predictable.  Halle Berry-also expected.  The diagonal draping is great, but it’s time to try something new.  Claire Danes wrapped herself in a tablecloth and Madonna, with bulging biceps, looks weird in any dress.  Bryce Dallas Howard, Anna Paquin and Jessica Alba looked like they were headed to a wedding shower.  It’s the Oscars bitches!  If ever there was a time for overdressing, this is it.  Jada Pinkett drowned in her dress but Ginnifer Goodwin, undoubtedly wins for ugliest frock ever.  I thought Kate Winslet dressed older than her years and had senior hair.  Sheryl Crow’s dress had proportion issues that made her look pear shaped and Naomi Watts looked sensational for just having a baby but the dress…not flattering.  Gwen Stefani looked like a whisk broom and though I wasn’t in love with Amy Adams dress, I was mesmerized by her necklace.  Buy it for me?  Please?

What say you all?

Last Days of Decadence

Saturday, February 21st, 2009

I can’t tell if this is a PETA event, or a drag show? The tags on the pics assure me that this is, indeed, a PETA event held at a club called ‘Last Days of Decadence”. A PETA event with a liberal sprinkle of drag mixed in. They managed to tie it all together with the “Fur is a Drag” banner at the end. I love drag shows (the lashes, the sequins, the lights!), and I love animals. I just never thought of mixing the two together.

I don’t mean to bitch or anything but um…how is wandering about looking dazed in paint splattered fur, bad wigs, and outrageous fab-u-lous make up helping animals again? I understand that the fur has been symbollically ruined, but they’re still wearing it and it’s still fur….

 Perhaps someone could explain it to me.

If You Feel Like You’re Having A Bad Day

Good Morning!  See?  Someone is always having a worse day than you are.  We stumble, we fall.  The entire world sees our wedgie.  We smile and recover.  The runway is such a euphemism for life.

It’s Fashion Week; Fifteen-year-old model, Monika “Jac” Jagaciak, handled this tumble with aplomb at the Hervé Leger show.

Are You Watching the Grammy Awards?

Sunday, February 8th, 2009

Grammies are officially underway, people! It never ceases to amaze me how many people with absolutely no musical connections show up to walk the red carpet. For example, UFC fighter Chuck Liddell. Chuck – you punch people for a living. What the fuck are you doing at the Grammies? 

Here are some of the arrivals. I’m sure Beet or Wendie will do an outfit round up in the AM when all the pictures are out. I see some “Worst Dressed” potential already!

I Think Angelina Heard You

You know all that bitching we were doing about Angelina appearing at events dressed in what appeared to be belted nightgowns? Well, I think she got tired of it because this is what she wore to The Orange  British Academy Film Awards.

A few other arrivals are below. Sharon Stone looks amazing, Alesha Dixon went for high drama, Penelope Cruz looks a little like she’s being strangled by a velvet turtleneck, and Dominic Cooper is hot. I don’t like Emma Watson’s dress, but it may just be a bad angle.
