The Good, The Bad, The Globes

Let's just go there and start with the bad shall we?

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree...
I want to wrap gifts and arrange them around her feet.
This HAS to be pine scented right?

Tina is funny and so is her dress. Funny sad.

Oh Christina, it's always just too much. Your reds in your nails and jewels don't match and neither do the yellows in your hair and extensions. Speaking of the jewels, again, too much! Pick one of the rings (the one on your ring finger) and call it a day.

Little House on the Prairie meets the red carpet.
Save grace for the AMAZING purse Leighton because I'm fully planning to snatch it.

(b.t.w. I actually do think Jane and her wife Lara look just fantastic)
I thought this was the best dressed lesbian couple of the night until....

...I saw this couple.
She's fetching and her wife is quite handsome in her tux.
ughhh...cut your hair dude. You're looking WAY too fem lately.
The dress? Underwhelming.

YOU'RE OUT!
Auf Wiedersehen!
Seriously, WTF?? It looks like they just came from dinner on a yacht and Seal's leather shrunk because it got wet.

I'm torn because while I hate it on the red carpet
I think this is an absolutely stunning wedding dress.

Julianne is usually my number one pick so this saddened me.
I like half the dress (you have to guess which half).

Dowdy dress, drawn face, drab hair.
p.s. EAT!!!

Sandy, I'm o.k. with the Jenny Packham dress but girl you need to talk to
wigmaster Derek J because this one isn't working.
p.s. EAT!!

My pick for the WORST dressed goes to:
Halle Berry in Nina Ricci.

In a stunning turn of events Halle stepped out of the limo in just her Spanks. She obviously had forgotten to put her dress on before leaving the house.
Fortunately, some kind person gave her their shawl to wrap around her waist.
EPIC FAIL (and you should know better)!

Let's see some of the hits...
yea for both but Jane wins!

Dig it.

Damn! Trent Reznor, you clean up real nice!

Kelly Osborne rocked the turd out of this Posen dress!!

Yes!

Beautiful

Nice

All the stars in the universe are twinkling for you Olivia Wilde
and the Louboutin shoes? Swoon!

This is what I would have worn.
Piper Perabo watch out! I'm on a purse snatching rampage and yours is next!

Hands down my BEST DRESSED goes to:
I LOVE this color against Emma Stone's skin, the minimalism of this dress and the accessories. A brave choice. Not tired and predictable.
Absolute perfection!

Tamlin & The Fall

Is it jewelry or a handbag? These miniaudieres from Tamlin & The Fall are certainly both. I'm absolutely beside myself over their beauty. Can't you just imagine carrying on of these in your palm? *sigh*
From the press kit:

Tamlin & The Fall's debut capsule collection, The Space Between, joins silver, leather, hammered-chain, and feathers into a trio of sculptural clutches for the edgy, sensuous woman.

Crafted to last a hundred years and designed to endure a thousand seasons, this quintessential trilogy is distilled from nature’s most enduring forms: the egg, the crystal and the shell. The egg has a dimensional fissure that cracks open to reveal an alligator-lined interior. The crystal is a sculptural gem mined to fit in your palm. The shell boldly embraces the hand like the guard on a fencing sabre. The interpretation of these shapes emerges as a group of palm-sized couture objects, each made with over a pound of precious metal. Timeless in form, function, and matter, the minaudieres speak a refreshingly modern language.

WTF?

How does one justify spending this...

$185- !

on this....
11'' x 16'' unlined nylon bag by Pucci


or better yet this...


$290- !

on this...
18'' x 15'' cotton lined wool bag, no closure by Comme des Garcons

I'll take a dozen! I'll use them as my recyclable green grocer bags. I mean, that's what they look like to me. I made more advanced stuff in my 7th grade home economics class (do they still teach home eco.?).

Seriously, are people really that stupid? For gods sake they couldn't even put one of those little magnetic closures on them? At least Comme de Garcons had the decency to line their bag (for $105- more).

No, I'm not telling you where to buy them. Why? because frankly I will not participate in this greedy ridiculousness! You want it you find it.

Lusting for...

I've always had a thing for items made from shell and horn (as evidence by The Takashimaya serving set a few posts down). These glamorous bags are all made from 100% recycled shell and horn by Urthbags. I paid a small fortune for my abalone clutch. I really wish to hell I'd known about these. They're such a low prices for such high end materials.

Which one would you get?
