Touché, Nicole


I'm so happy we had our little chat about your red carpet look at the LA premiere of Nine. I mean, you've done a complete 180 in less than a week! No more suit separates and boring hair for you!

Just look at this fabulous Prada dress you went and selected for the NYC premiere.


The fit is lovely, the silhouette is fun, the flower appliqué is very appropriate... But, uhm... You kinda forgot something. The powder? Under your eyes and around your nose? You know, the kind that makeup artists typically use to ensure no eyeshadow or anything ends up under your eye? Well, that's a great little tip... But you're kinda supposed to brush the powder away once you're done with the eyeshadow. How does one miss something this obvious? Surely if your makeup was rushed, or whatever, you had to come into contact with at least one other person on your way to the premiere? Shouldn't they have warned you? No? Maybe the limo was too dark to notice or something?

I feel like this was a big miss on everyone's part. Powder tragedy aside, I love the dress. I love the hair. I love the makeup (the non-powder part, at least). Glad our little talk set you straight, darling.

You were not the only one that had a fabulous night, though.


Fergie wins the night for me. She's rockin' the Grecian goddess look like no other. I cannot even find a descriptive word appropriate enough for how much I adore this flowing Marchesa (Resort 2010 Collection) gown. The belt, the clutch, the stunning Chopard diamond cuff? Seriously made of awesome. I think that Fergie often looks very harsh, but that's not the case here. The soft waves and makeup fit perfectly. Major win. Major.


Another vision in white was Oscar winner, Marion Cotillard. She looks gorgeous in a sparkling Christian Dior dress that had one of the prettiest silhouettes of the night, but I could've done without the long Chopard beads. I think it takes away from the embellishment on the front of the dress. Her hair and makeup looks beautiful, though, so I can get over it. She's also carrying a Judith Leiber clutch to complete the outfit.


Holy smokes... She looks hot. I'm really not a fan of satin dresses for the most part... But this one works. I guess when you're Penelope Cruz there are very few things that don't work for you? As gorgeous as she looks in this Chanel Couture gown, I prefer the Ralph Lauren gown she wore to the LA premiere.


Kate Hudson, looking...interesting in Chanel Couture (Fall 2009 Collection) brought her mom, Goldie Hawn in Christian Dior (Spring 2008 Collection) as her date. How cute are they? I'm not in love with either outfit, but Goldie is one of my favorite people. I'll forgive her just about anything. Even that fur thing.


Okay, so everyone has been raving about this structured Marchesa dress on Naomi Watts, but I just don't like it. I think it fits her perfectly and the color is really fun... But I still don't like it. Great shoes, though! I also think she could have stepped it up with her hair and makeup... It looks way too casual for this event.

Which premiere do you think was better? NYC or LA?

"Nine" Gets a Perfect 10




Let me start by saying how excited I am for this movie! I love musicals. LOVE them. Also... Have you seen the trailer for this movie? Apparently they got, like, every famous person on the planet to be in it. Even the fabulous Sophia Lauren! Color me stoked!

Now, on to the important part.

The stars certainly turned out for the premiere of Nine in London... And some of their stylists really outdid themselves, while others should be fired and never be allowed near a celebrity ever again.

My favorite of the night was easily Penelope Cruz.


She absolutely killed it in an ice blue lace gown from Ralph Lauren's Spring 2010 line, a Ralph Lauren clutch, and sparkling jewels from Chopard.


How gorgeous is this? Love it!

Next up, we have the lovely Kate Hudson.


She always looks SO HAPPY! It's infectious! She reminds me so much of her mom, Goldie Hawn (whom I ADORE), in these photos.

She's wearing Atelier Versace from the Fall 2009 line. The link is actually to the Spring 2009 line, but only because I adore that post and I think seeing the sketches and dresses together is really cool.


My first thought when I saw this dress was that it reminded me of the white gown January Jones wore to the Emmy's and lo and behold, they're both from the same collection. Not sure why that didn't hit me earlier, but apparently I'm a little slow sometimes.

But yeah... Really similar, right?


Either way, both are gorgeous.

Alright, so Penelope and Kate get my votes for best dressed... Their costar, Nicole Kidman, didn't fair so well.

I mean... What the hell is this??


It's a lovely suit... For an interview. Maybe a dinner date or something. But a premiere? For a movie musical where you're trying to prove you're still as hot as you were in Moulin Rouge? Really? This one was a miss. A big, huge, gaping hole of a miss. Thumbs down, Nicole. Fire your stylist, please. And maybe try a little self tanner. You're not just pale, you're pretty pasty. Seriously. A little color would really do you well. Give it a shot, 'kay?
