We’d like to point out that we hated this dress last night and here we are, late in the day on our busiest day of the year, softening up a little bit. We are NOT cranky, tired bitches! We’re softies! Sally Field attends the 2013 Academy Awards in a Valentino red sheer...
Oscars WERQ: Naomi Watts in Armani PrivéWe loved Miss Charlize and Miss Jessica, but we think we’re going to have to crown this Best Look of the Night: Naomi Watts attends the 2013 Academy Awards in an Armani Privé gown paired with Neil Lane jewelry. We also think we might be lonely in that opinion. So be it. This was... Oscars IN or OUT: Adele in Jenny PackhamAfter her Grammys debacle, we swore we’d never rag on Miss Adele again for wearing a black dress and we’re going to stick to that promise. Adele attends the 2013 Academy Awards in a Jenny Packham gown paired with Lorraine Schwartz jewelry. We’re of two minds, which is... Oscars 2013 Girl, That’s Not Your Dress: Jennifer...We keep switching back and forth between the runway shot and the red carpet shot, muttering to each other, “How does she do that?” Jennifer Aniston attends the 2013 Academy Awards in a Valentino couture gown paired with a Salvatore Ferragamo clutch and Fred Leighton... Oscars 2013 WERQ: Charlize Theron in Dior CoutureIt’s like we always say: true style comes down to dress + wearer + venue. Charlize Theron attends the 2013 Academy Awards in a Christian Dior couture gown paired with Harry Winston jewelry and Roger Vivier shoes. Which means that this dress is beautiful, but it’s another white... Oscars 2013: Octavia Spencer in Tadashi ShojiWe wanted so badly to like this: Octavia Spencer attends the 2013 Academy Awards in a Tadashi Shoji dress paired with Prada shoes, Lorraine Schwartz jewelry, and an Edie Parker clutch. It’s a creamy confection of a dress, and the color looks great on her, but that’s about... Oscars 2013 WERQ: Jessica Chastain in Armani PrivéWe’re not quite ready to crown her the best of the night (there are other candidates to discuss), but looking at it again in the light of day, there’s no doubt that this look was one of the highlights of the red carpet. Jessica Chastain attends the 2013 Academy Awards in a... Oscars 2013: Jennifer Garner in GucciJennifer Garner looks like some sort of brightly colored, tropical lizard. There. How’s that for an opener? Jennifer Garner attends the 2013 Academy Awards in a Gucci dress paired with a Roger Vivier clutch and Neil Lane jewelry. We were happy to see such a rich color in a sea of... Oscars 2013 IN or OUT: Jennifer LawrenceWe’re kicking off an “IN or OUT” discussion about a dress that caused its wearer to trip and almost face-plant during the most important, most watched moment of her career. We don’t even know why we’re bothering. Oh, wait. Yes we do. It’s because she looked... Oscars 2013: Anne Hathaway in PradaKittens, we’ve got a LOT of ground to cover today and we’ve only slept a few hours after spending 6 hours live-tweeting that long, boring mess. So expect a lot of crankiness today! Yay! Hit it, Anne. Anne Hathaway attends the 2013 Academy Awards in a Prada gown paired with... J. Mendel Fall 2013 CollectionIt was all high-impact, mega-glam looks for Gilles Mendel this time, as he cited German artist Gerhard Richter as his inspiration. The colors are rich and earthy and the tone is pure luxury; a melding of “rich bitch” and some sort of fur-bedecked Germanic nature goddess. Some... Kelly Rowland at the Essence LuncheonWe’d feel kind of funny shouting “WERQ!” to a lady sporting nothing more complicated than a skirt and blouse, but boy does she ever look fantastic here: Kelly Rowland attends the Sixth Annual ESSENCE Black Women In Hollywood Awards Luncheon in Beverly Hills,... Jennifer Lawrence for Miss Dior CampaignIf the world had come to us first – as the world should, on so many matters – and asked us, “T Lo, what do you think about the idea of shooting Jennifer Lawrence for a Dior campaign?” We would have smiled indulgently and said in a very condescending voice, “No,... Bibhu Mohapatra Fall 2013 CollectionBibhu Mohapatra took his inspiration from Man Ray’s images for his fall collection and the results are stark, boldly graphic, cast with shadows, and tinged with a a very pared-down (or in some cases, exaggerated) take on 1920s and 1930s shapes. It’s a pleasing blend of bohemian and... Mary Elizabeth Winstead in Roksanda IlincicWe weren’t entirely sure what to think of this when we first saw it, but the longer we look at it, the more we’re settling on “uniquely pretty.” Mary Elizabeth Winstead attends the TheWrap 4th Annual Pre-Oscar Party in Beverly Hills in a Roksanda Ilincic dress... Reem Acra Fall 2013 CollectionAnother collection that we would, if we were kings of the world, force lady stars to wear on the red carpet. Reem Acra’s fall 2013, inspired by photos Japanese photographer Daido Moriyama took of women in fishnet stockings, is darkly sexy and dramatic as hell. We’ll take... IN or OUT: Anne Hathaway in Theykens’ TheoryLooks like “granny chic” has finally made its way to the red carpet: Anne Hathaway attends Vanity Fair And The Chrysler Celebration of ‘Les Misérables’ in Los Angeles in a Theyskens’ Theory knit dress paired with her own coat and a Dana Rebecca cuff.... Mia Wasikowska in Proenza SchoulerWell, here’s a quirky way to start your day: Mia Wasikowska attends the ‘Stoker’ press conference in Seoul, South Korea in a Proenza Schouler dress paired with Christian Louboutin shoes. Proenza Schouler Pre-Fall 2013 Collection/Model: Wylie Hays We want to like this... WERQ: Selena Gomez in Atelier VersaceWe don’t want to over-WERQ this poor girl – and if you’d told us a week ago that we’d be double-WERQing Selena Gomez in the near future, we would have laughed loud and long – but as much as we tried to resist the impulse to snap and roll our necks, we’re... Tommy Hilfiger Fall 2013 Collection“Savile Row meets Ivy League.” You don’t get more upscale than that. This collection of tweedy, argyle preppiness from Tommy Hilfiger is fun, cute and tinged with an unexpected Britishness, with a ton of covetable pieces to be found throughout. It brought smiles to... Marisa Tomei in Roksanda IlincicOooh, we don’t know, kittens… Marisa Tomei attends Special Dinner And Reception Celebrating Elizabeth Taylor’s Bvlgari Jewelry Collection in Roksanda Ilincic.
