People's 10 Best Dressed Stars Of 2008

People Magazine has unveiled their list of the 10 best dressed celebs of this past year. Here they are, in no particular order. Agree, or disagree?



1. Charlize Theron

2. Eva Mendes

3. Michelle Obama

4. Sarah Jessica Parker

5. Heidi Klum

6. Anne Hathaway

7. Fergie

8. Gwyneth Paltrow

9. Rihanna

10. Kate Hudson



I can ride with Heidi, Gwyneth, Anne, and SJP for the most part, and Michelle Obama is a refreshing breath of fashionable air for a first lady. But the other half of the list get a big fat N.O.
What do you think?

Project Runway Season 5 Finale



This was the first season of Project Runway that I watched, and I think I may be hooked.
Leanne Marshall won this cycle with an amazing collection inspired by waves.

I'm not a huge reality show buff, but when I do watch them, one of my fave things to do is bet on the winner in the first episode. I kicked ass with this when I used to watch ANTM.
But Leanne really snuck up on me, I didn't even begin to see her talent until maybe halfway through the season. In fact she has been selling her clothing online even before going on the show, and looking at her site, I find it to be the same underwhelming clothing that she created early in the season. It appears to me that she underwent a rapid growth spurt in her aesthetic during filming. Check out her website, Leanimal By the last 6-8 episodes, she really started to shine and distance herself from the pack, and I am proud to say that by then she was my favorite to win.
Korto's collection was excellent as well, and I would have been just as happy had she been the winner. However Leanne got my vote because nearly everything in her collection looked like something I would wear. In fact, when her line goes up for sale on Bluefly.com you can count on me to be there at least trying to get a piece from her line. I know they'll sell hotcakes! How do hotcakes sell anyway???

Check out the collections for yourself:

Alice + Olivia Structured Collar Dress


I was fallin' in love with this dress from Alice + Olivia, when I noticed all THIS going on...

What the heck ladies!?!?!? I'm not even one to care much about who wore what. If I like it, I buy it. But this is just crushing, I dont think I can do it. Maybe if it goes on sale...it's still full price at Shopbop

Style-Smackdown!


Cameron Diaz, August.
Jennifer Lopez, September.

Both high profile actresses rocked this white corduroy Fendi dress. But which lovely Latina emerged victorious???
I'd love to give it to Jenny. She looks fantastic, just had twins, completed a triathlon, on the verge of the big 4-0...
Unfortunaty, these puffy, shapeless looks are always better on a tall, thin frame. So, I have to give this round to Cameron. Sorry J.Lo, but too much material on a curvy woman just ends up looking dumpy.
