On another note, was anyone else wondering where Kate Winslet was?! She’s probably prepping for the rerelease of “Titanic” in 3D…I know I am!
Cameron Diaz
I loved this dress! Just like everything else, it fit Cameron like a glove and her arms look like she has been lifting soup cans on overtime. Good choice girl!

*You can creep on Natalie Portman’s polka-dot dress in the background.
Meryl Streep
Meryl shined in gold…just like the Oscar statue she took home for “The Iron Lady” last night. When I saw this dress, I likened it to something a woman living in Rome during the Julius Caesar era would wear. It just works.

Octavia Spencer
The well-deserved Best Supporting Actress winner sparkled in this beautiful dress. It’s versatile…you could wear this to da club or a classy event.

Pharrell Williams
Oh Pharrell…he played the drums at the big show and I was all about it. I think the only thing that would have made his tux better was if he paired it with a trucker hat.

That’s all for me folks! What were your picks for best dressed last evening?
