84th Academy Awards Epic Fails!

 If you don't have anything nice to say... COME SIT NEXT TO ME!
This year at the Oscars some Rocked It and others Wrecked it! Nothing's better than a HOT Mess!
So Let's Get Ruthless!

Angelina Jolie in Atelier Versace
Girl looked like a toothpick wrapped in a black velvet parachute – and with her leg sticking out like that (in every picture mind you) it looked as if she was showing off her new prosthetic leg. 
Time for a better pose Sweetheart!

Gwyneth Paltrow in Tom Ford

I guess even Tom Ford *ucks Up... she is wearing an CAPE... A CAPE! Do I really need to say

anything else??


              Octavia Spencer iTadashi Shoji 
   


I wish her dress had been as cute and as endearing as her acceptance speech... but it was not.
What is with old lady sequin – It doesn't look classic it looks like it smells like mothballs and listerine... OLD OLD OLD!  
Oh & FYI Short sleeves are for T-Shirts only NOT OSCAR GOWNS!

Shailene Woodley in Valentino Couture
Was this newcomer's goal to look as frumpy and as matronly as possible? 
Betty White called... she wants her dress back!

Jessica Chastain in Alexander McQueen
Jessica Chastain actually stole my bedding and made a dress out of it.. and if you don't believe me here is a thumbnail of my covers... 
URGH so ugly it make my face hurt! 
The dress not my bedding... My Bedding is Ab Fab!

Melissa McCarthy in Marina Rinaldi 
While Jessica Chastain wore bedding McCarthy decided to wear curtains... She looks like the St. Pauli Girl got swallowed by pink chiffon drapes!

Natalie Portman in Christian Dior Haute Couture
Is this a Hot Topic Prom Dress? Polka Dots?? To the Academy Awards… Seriously? Emo Haute Couture?

Remember Fashion Is Brutal Ladies!

Godspeed!


Oscar Fashions... Best Dressed!

For Me These Ladies Won It Hands Down...

Let us begin with Jennifer Lopez in Zuhair Murad.
 Let me tell ya J-Lo was back in her fighting form last night! I mean @ her old Puff-Daddy Days but without the police charges and short one back-up dancer boy toy... Oh wait she has a new one! Damn girl looks good!

Moving on... I know I'll get a lot of heat for this one - But Emma Stone (in Giambattista Valli Couture) looked fantastic! 


Many said her dress was reminicest of the Balenciaga gown worn by Nicole Kidman to the 2007 Oscar (Click Here To See Side By Side).... Ummm ok that was 5 years ago and if we are going to play the "don't they look alike" game let us not forget that Nicole Kidman now doesn't look like the Nicole Kidman of 2007. The difference you ask? Kidman's face is now entirely made of industrial strength silicone and ground up hockey sticks and that's a fact! So Emma you rocked it red head!

Next... Rose Byrne wearing Vivienne Westwood... WOW! 

The dress was midnight blue (but photographed black) with a complete open back... hair in a forever stylish bob.... plus she has an australian accent so you can't go wrong! (Insert typical Australian Phrase Here)



But the reigning queen of the evening was Bingbing Li... 
Bingbing Li in Georges Chakra Couture

"China's Leading Lady"stole the night. Amazing dress, Classic hair, clean makeup, stunning earrings and a pop of color in the form of red nail polish... Oh yeah the $400,000 clutch by Lana Marks featuring 40 carats of white diamonds also helped... just a little - I didn't want to say it but I actually her borrow mine!

So Bingbing.... you looking Bang Banging (I know... i just couldn't help myself!

But what's better than the best dressed at the academy awards? The worst dressed @ the academy awards.... Coming to ya' shortly!

To Prime or Not To Prime...

But the real question is who really needs another step added to their morning makeup routine right? 

Some of you may ask what the hell is primer and why do I effing need it?

Have you ever painted a wall? Yeah me neither but I have been told that if you don’t use priming paint the color  “is just not right” and it can affect the surface…. Hence face primer…. Unless you have a perfect complexion you can benefit from this product... and let's be honest here NO ONE HAS THE PERFECT COMPLEXION!


Face Primer is a base you put on your mug to prolong the  look and wear of your makeup . It smoothes your skin so makeup has a better base, therefore stays longer and you get more mileage from that war paint.

So if you are sold on primer which one should you use?
Most primers come in various color-correcting shades and one in a transparent shade…figure out which color to suit your skins needs and there is one for every budget ladies…. 

Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer, $36 - $42 (www.Sephora.com)

Makeup Forever HD Primer $32 (www.Sephora.com)

Laura Geller Spackle Under Makeup Primer From: $25.00 (www.Ulta.Com or www.qvc.com )

Sephora Collection Perfecting Ultra-Smoothing Primer, $16 (www.Sephora.com)

L'Oreal Studio Secrets Professional Color Correcting Primer From: $12.99 (Drugstore)

Revlon Photo Ready Perfecting Primer $12.99 (Drugstore)

Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Primer Skin Transformer $8.99 (Drugstore)

Rimmel London Fix & Perfect Pro Primer $7.49 (Drugstore)

E.L.F Studio Mineral Infused Face Primer $6.00 (www.eyeslipsface.com)

Moisturize, then use a pea sized amount to cover your whole face… you have now created the perfect canvas…. Get to the makeup!
