Because of my severe devotion to the Oscars, and my semi-educated knowledge of fashion, I feel I am just as qualified as any those ladies (and now some guys) on Fashion Police to voice my opinion about the winners and losers of the red carpet. I've highlights some of the highlights....and some of the "What were they thinking"--but overall, I think almost everyone looked great, Billy Crystal was an amazing host, and Meryl finally won another WELL-DESERVED Oscar.
**(And just to explain the title of this post, I have always had a little obsession with Meryl Streep, meaning I absolutely LOVE her. She's done so much in her career, starting out strong with two Oscars in the early 80s, and has since been nominated 17 TIMES [an all-time record, by the way], and is just so versatile and resilient in every role she has tackled, it's hard not to admire her. So, my old roommate/amazing friend Heather was giving me a pep-talk a few years ago and she told me to "Meryl-it", meaning to basically kick ass at whatever I was about to do, and this phrase has stuck with me over the years).
Karie's Fashion Police:
Top #5
#1: Meryl Streep (in Lavin)
Of course she'd be my #1--she looked beautiful |
With a slit up to there, simple hair and plump red lips, she looked like perfection. I would wear this dress in a heartbeat! |
Ever since seeing The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, I've been in love with Rooney. On anyone else, this dress would look awful, but on her, it works. |
At first I thought the top was a little "figure skater-ish", but it's very figure-flattering, unique, and the color looks great on her |
I want this dress so badly! I love Alexander McQueen--this dress looks so regal, yet is daring at the same time! She looks absolutely gorgeous! |
#1: Kelly Osbourne (in Badgley Mischka)
Hideous--I don't care what fashion statement you're trying to make, wearing hair the color of the mane of a My Little Pony is just wrong. She needs to be arrested by the Fashion Police |
Kudos to looking this great at the age of 61, but all I kept thinking about was Jessica Rabbit |
Anything dress that you can see your bra in is NOT acceptable for the Oscars |
And just for fun...this is DEFINITELY how I would react if I ever got a chance to meet Tom Cruise!!
