Another day, another awards show red carpet. I’d feel bad for these starlets if their jewelry didn’t cost as much as my student loan debt.

Eddie Redmayne continues his streak of phenomenal red carpet looks – he’s had a better run than most A-listers this awards season. He of the velvet jackets and shiny, shiny shoes – I’ll suffer the indignity of Les Mis getting an Oscar nomination for Best Picture so long as there’s more Eddie Redmayne on the red carpet.

This stunning Prabal Gurung gown was my Pre-Fall 2013 red carpet prediction for Michelle Dockery, and I think it’s stunning on Jennifer Lawrence. I’m not sold on the hair, and the makeup is definitely problematic, but the dress fits her beautifully and the clutch is just fantastic.
ANNE HATHAWAY

Beautiful, but nothing we haven’t seen before. But you have to respect the Oscar nominee who dresses up like an Oscar on the red carpet.
MARION COTILLARD

I’m so glad she’s not wearing Dior again, and I think this dress is stunning, but the shoes are all wrong. The lace and florals look beautiful and it fits her beautifully, and I think the purse is fine, but those shoes have got to go.

The stars on the belt and shoulders are really cheesy, and I don’t think the print looks particularly expensive. Maybe I’d like it better in a cocktail length, this gown is a foot too long on her, and the print kind of overwhelms her.
OCTAVIA SPENCER

Love the color of the dress, but the matching earrings and purse and shoes are more than a bit too much.
JESSICA CHASTAIN

Painfully boring, poorly fit, and lazily styled. BOO, JESSICA. You are capable of looking so much better than this.
JAIME KING

Her hair has gotten so peroxided, she’s starting to look like Lindsay Lohan. I don’t think I need to say that that’s not exactly the look anyone should be aiming for.
EMILY BLUNT

The length of the dress is so awkward, and the hair and lipstick look downright costumey.

Amy, I think you put your dress on sideways.

Happy prom, y’all!
AMANDA SEYFRIED

Okay, dear readers. I know the Critics’ Choice Movie Awards aren’t exactly the most important event of the awards show season. But if you’re going to bother showing up, at least attempt a look that’s better than this. The top and bottom look like two entirely different dresses, and not only because the skirt looks like it’s been attacked by some kind of wild animal. And the black strappy platforms are so wrong for this dress, I can’t even fathom how she left the house in them.

You look dirty and your tie is comically wide.

She really never gets tired of wearing the same dress over and over again, does she?
NAOMI WATTS

Severe, shapeless, ill-fitting, and boring. Was everyone half-assing the Critics Choice Awards because they hate the critics? Actually, I kind of hope so – at least there would be a bitchy reason for all the disasters on this red carpet.

You know I love to compliment many of Elle’s more questionable looks, but dear readers, I simply cannot support this at any age. Those shoes are part Mary Jane, part clog, part ballet slipper, and part torture device. And I don’t know when Chanel started making shower curtains, but it’s tragic that Elle managed to mistake one of them for a dress.
LESLIE MANN

You are a grown-ass woman. What are you doing in four different shades of Barbie pink? For shame, Leslie Mann – you are way more stylish than this madness.

Eddie Redmayne has to be the best dressed guy I have ever laid my eyes on. He looked fantastic and Im honestly more excited to see him on most red carpets than I am to see a lot of the ladies.
Jamie King…dont you just hate it when a nobody wears a gown that you were really looking forward to seeing on the red carpet? I feel so let down right now…
Totally agreed about being more excited to see Eddie on the red carpet than most lady stars. And I feel the same way about Jaime King – she wears so much Jason Wu and always makes his beautiful gowns look terrible. Such a disappointment. Thanks for commenting!
