BAFTAs Fug or Fab Carpet: Ruth Wilson

BAFTAs Fug or Fab Carpet: Ruth Wilson

I deeply appreciate her for trying something unusual, and I actually wish Blanchett had done this: I'm not sure I'm feeling the metallic cummerbund, which looks like a fancy frog puffing up its stomach, or a piece of womb-armor. (That's not speculation, by

BAFTAs Fine or Fab: Amy Adams

This dress is by Victoria Beckham, and it's...it's fine, right? It's pretty enough, and her face looks great, but feels kind of like Amy's just treading water before the Oscars. I think we're hitting the point in awards season

BAFTAs Fug or Fab: Cate Blanchett

For the BAFTAs, La Blanchett chose Alexander McQueen, and it's not fug at all, really. It's at least fine: It's actually rather pretty and also utilitarian and simple -- it covers her body, it clings, it has a couple ornate touches but nothing suffocating, nor

Fugs and Fabs of the WGA Awards

View the gallery Apparently, the WGA West and the WGA East hold their awards simultaneously on opposite coasts -- at least, this is what I've gathered from Twitter. Can't you kids just get together somewhere in the middle and do it all at once? Meet in Austin

Grammy Party Fug Carpet: Victoria Azarenka

Grammy Party Fug Carpet: Victoria Azarenka

Vika here went down in the quarterfinals of the Australian Open, and got booed by the crowd, which apparently decided last year that Azarenka has a sportsmanship problem (she took a medical timeout in the semi-final at a questionable time). I've decided this dress is her response.

Grammy Pre-Party Fug or Fine: Miley Cyrus

Grammy Pre-Party Fug or Fine: Miley Cyrus

The context of this outfit: a Grammy pre-party in Los Angeles during what was probably a 66-degree evening after a warm day. If she'd been in New York, or Chicago, or anywhere else that's been tongue-bathed by the polar vortex, I would be

Grammy Awards Meh Carpet: Ariana Grande

Grammy Awards Meh Carpet: Ariana Grande

So, I gather Ariana Grande decided she needed to do a whole explanation about why her hair is the same all the time, and it boils down to: loads of damage from her day job, it's too "ratchet" (she means "wretched" or "ratty,

Grammy Awards Better Played: Julia Roberts

Grammy Awards Better Played: Julia Roberts

I'm sure the cut of this dress will knock you over from shock. After her Globes and SAGs outfits, I feel like Julia must have been DYING to get back into a cocktail frock with loose sleeves, like the ones she favored leading up to awards season. It&

Grammy Awards Fug Carpet: Ashanti

At some point when we were watching the Grammys red carpet, Heather said, "Some horror show just walked behind Giuliana." Friends, MEET THAT HORROR SHOW: I'm sure you know what I'm going to say, though, and I want you to say it with: At

Grammy Weekend Fugs or Fabs: Lorde

View the gallery I'm getting that black clothes are her thing, but not all garments are created equal. People are very defensive of her, from what I gleaned on Twitter, so don't take it personally if I don't think they're all very

Grammy Awards Fug or Fab: Anna Kendrick

Grammy Awards Fug or Fab: Anna Kendrick

First of all, do not ask me why Anna Kendrick was at the Grammys. I don't have anything against Anna Kendrick -- I actually like Anna Kendrick! -- but it seemed weird. Is this because my local pop music station went through a three week period of playing "Cups&
