MTV Awards: In your face, Jesse James.



Proving that looking this good (at a very public event) really is the best revenge, Sandra Bullock came to the awards wearing a long-sleeved backless mini with beige platforms that showed off her killer legs. If there were an award for best comeback outfit, She would win.

MTV Awards: Filthy Couture


There's really no point of giving any sort of style critique to these girls. I just wanted to point out how hilarious it is that J-Woww has started her own fashion label and it's called "Filthy Couture." The dress she is wearing in this pic is (gasp!) one of her own. I can pretty much guarantee the label's catch phrase isn't "some things are better left to the imagination." You know you're in trouble when little Snooks here is the best dressed in a group of people. Tone it down? Jersey ? Never.

MTV Awards: Whitney Port


Whitney knows how to dress. The neon and nude mini she is wearing looks great on her, and she accessorized it well.

MTV Awards: Girls of The Hills


Unlike their former cast mate Whitney Port, These girls are pretty clueless. First of all Lo, where are you going? This is not dinner at the White House, and you are not in your 40s. Loosen up a little. Audrina looks very...shiny. Her shoes are so over the top...they block her legs a little. Stephanie doesn't looks bad, her dress is summery, fits well, and she's kept it simple with the accessories. I just really wish she was wearing the clutch from last week's episode of the hills that she bought to go with her spray tan, because she has certainly had one.

MTV Awards: Scarlett Johansson


Scarlett looks great in the emerald lace dress by Dolce and Gabbana. I love the sweetheart neckline, and the cut flatters her hourglass figure so well. The loose waves look great too. If you weren't jealous of Scarlett already, you should be now.

MTV Awards: Lilo is a Disco Queen


HAHAHA. Who told her this worked? Probably her mom. Not only does she look ridiculous, but this Pamela Roland jumpsuit is so unflattering. First of all, it does nothing for her waistline...she looks like a box. The neckline is awkward, and worst of all the pants are wayy too long. It's not fair really, she makes herselft such an easy target.

MTV Awards: Jessica Biel


This Giambattista Valli outfit Jessica Biel is wearing is cute and flattering. More important however, is her hair. It's the shiniest hair I've ever seen. How does she get it so shiny? I want it.

MTV Awards: Kristen Stewart


I wish I could have found a better picture to show off her new extensions. She has finally fixed the dirty shag she had for The Runaways, and wow,what an improvement. It's amazing what a little hair can do. The dress probably isn't something that I would wear, but she looks good.

MTV Awards: Katy Perry


I actually like the blue wig and pin up bangs Katy Perry has been wearing around. It's like Lil' Kim meets Betty Paige, or a retro mermaid. Obviously not one for modesty, Katy is wearing a very sparkly and short Zuhair Murad mini on the left. This look might be a bit much on most people, but it's pretty tame for her. Add an inch or two to the length and I would actually like it. The Herve Leger by Max Azria dress Katy is wearing on the right is lovely. The pattern creates a silhouette that flatters her already killer bod.

Kirsten Dunst...somewhere.



Enough with the raccoon eyes please. I think Jenny Humphrey has been running around styling people in her likeness in Cannes. It looks like she probably made the dress too.

Phoebe Price: Always good for a laugh.


I love everything about this outfit. No, not because it is some great fashion feat. Because it is hilarious. So many kinds of bird feathers on one dress, and the hat is just the icing on the cake. Seriously, who told her this looked good...Please pull up you`re dress phoebe, you are a nip slip away from total failure.

Celebrity Looks From Last Night



As usual, Ashlee Simpson-Wentz is rocking black from head-to-toe. She looks cute. Cute dress, cute shoes...a little bit boring but cute. And while I like her new hair colour (so much better than solid black), why must she always look like she's emptied out a bottle of dippity-do onto her bangs? I'm over the comb-over, I wish she was too.


Kate Moss. I think I'll always be a bit bias when it comes to Kate Moss, but to me she always looks effortlessly cool. Besides, pants are totally overrated.



Boo. I'm so dissapointed. I always root for SJP, even when everyone else seems to have turned their backs on her (she was once voted the unsexiest woman of all time, WTF?!). In this case though, I cannot. I really dislike this dress...something about that neckline isn't doing anything for me, I don't like the hem and the fit bothers me too. It looks like something I've seen Kelly Ripa in, only less flattering. Better luck next time...



Ah, now Lily Allen makes some questionable choices...sometimes choosing to wear something not-so-flattering. However, I genuinely like this dress...In fact, I kind of want it. It's soft and romantic, and it looks good on her because it emphasizes her teeny waist and the plunging reckline prevents it from looking dowdy. I think her hair and makeup work well with it too, giving the outfit a bit of edge without looking overdone. Nice work Lily's stylist.



W...T...F. How old is Demi Lovato...16,17? Does anyone know what I'm talking about when I say she looks like she's been in one of those old lady boutiques that carry things with "pizazz" like gold lamé shirts, things with rhinestones, t-shirts that say things like "growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional" and other fun things to make the elderly feel like they are still young and hip? She looks like a cross between an Atlantic City grandmother and a contestant on Rock of Love. With an outfit (and makeup) like that, she could make a mint as an Adam Lambert impersonator.



Let's do a little side-by-side comparison of Michelle Williams. Outfit 1: adorable and flattering in a Suno dress, and killer platforms by Stella McCartney. Outfit 2: homely and unflattering in a Chanel Couture gown. I usually think Michelle Williams has good style, the colour looks pretty on her and I really want to like it...but eugh.



I bet when J.Lo's stylist pitched this Roberto Cavalli dress to her she used the words "sexy" and "exotic". When I see it "tacky" is the only word that springs to mind. She cleverly accessorized with even more animal print (see clutch) and plenty o' diamonds.



This is more like it. Rachel Bilson does animal print well. It's much less obvious than J.Lo, and the cut and fit still look hot. I think this is how animal prints should be done. It's less conventional and her simple black accessories are interesting enough to add an edge, but subtle enough not to push it over the edge.



Ew. I hate this. Maybe it's just her weird pose, but I really don't think this looks good on Lea Michele. The shiny dress looks off with the satin shoes. Normally, I'm into the big, high bun...but with her bangs, and her heavy eyes and lips it looks outdated and kind of awful. The dress looks like it's supposed to be a bit offbeat. Instead, she looks like she was styled by a dance teacher or a stage mom. On a somewhat related side note: I love glee.



I'm into the sheer skirt trend, and this Chanel dress that Kate Beckinsale is wearing does not dissapoint. I love the sleeves, and the beadwork at the top. Her loose hair works too.

Cannes Style


Carey Mulligan always has a great red carpet dress, and this Azzaro Gown is no exception. She's channeling old Hollywood and with her finger wave crop, smokey eyes and subtle makeup, she pulls it off flawlessly without looking costume-y.


I don't really know where to start with Evangeline Lily and this dress by Emilio Pucci... but this just isn't working for me. I can't pin point exactly what I don't like about this, but the length and the fit don't do much for her. It looks like spaghetti, or some craft project gone wrong. I don't love the colour, and the fringe down the front is a bit much. On the plus side, her boring accessories have toned it down enough for it not to be a total bust.


I don't have anything bad to say about this Gucci dress that Naomi Watts is wearing. It's simple, but not boring and she looks so soft and pretty in it.


Jennifer Hudson has lost a bunch of weight with Weight Watchers and she is looking great. Too bad this dress isn't doing much to show off her new figure. This dress creates curves, it doesn't compliment them. On Jennifer the cowl neck, the loose fabric under the arms and the draping at the hips looks a little bit sloppy.


I don't know if this Lefranc Ferrant jumpsuit would work on everyone, but Marion Cotillard seems to pull it off. On her it looks quirky and elegant. My only problem with this outfit is the shoes. They look a tiny bit theme-y... a different pair might have made this outfit look a bit more modern.


Prom anyone? While her sister Nicky looks fine, Paris Hilton always manages to look overdone. Too much spray tan and makeup, a prom-y updo and a typical dress make this the least surprising look so far.


Wait, did I call Paris Hilton's look the least surprising? Make that Lindsay Lohan's. The only surprise is that she managed to get dressed at all. She looks like she's going to a strip club. I'm not sure if the frayed hem is on purpose, but judging by the fact that the dress is so short you can practically see her underwear (assuming she is wearing any), I'd say it's a safe assumption the dress wasn't sexy enough for her so she grabbed a pair of scissors and put her design skills to use. WHY.
