Cannes Film Festival 2011- Part VII

Janet Jackson

-Colorblocked Haider Ackermann gown: 10/10 (Usually Janet's fashion choices are quite questionable, but she looks so regal in this gown by one of my favorite designers, Haider Ackermann. Also it seems she has slimmed down alot too)

Jane Fonda

-Animal print gown: 15/10 (At her age, Jane Fonda knocks the socks off of all the Hollywood youngsters for sure in this stunner. I love the sequin animal print and the lighter tones. I can only wish I look this good down the road)

Eve Hewson

-Pink and black Chanel dress: 6/10 (I was really not a fan of the collection this Chanel dress hails from, but I was hoping it would translate better on the red carpet. Sadly it does not. I strongly dislike the heavy black pumps and the baby pink skirt just isn't flattering mixed with the weird halter top)

-Printed Miu Miu dress: 9/10 (Now this is much better! I think the green neckline detail is very interesting and refreshing against the black and white pattern. I also like the bright purple pump. However the dress has no shape. If it were longer or more structured this would have been a 10)

Claudia Schiffer

-Black lace Dolce & Gabbana gown: 15/10 (Love this! So sexy, chic and simple. A throwback to the 90's which is fabulous. Pointy toe heels, wind blown hair and supermodel strut complete this great look)

Kristen Dunst

-Sheer Chanel gown: 20/10 (I adore Kristen's style choices at Cannes this past week, and this is no exception. Feminine and simply beautiful, this delicate gown makes her shine. Dewy skin and pulled up hair keep things pretty)

Rosario Dawson

-Red mermaid gown: 7/10 (Oh she almost had it! I absolutely love this bright fun red hue against her skin tone. I even love the fit and light material. However the peek a boo white really bugs me. Kinda looks like a mistake or the underlining of the dress)

Gwen Stefani

-Black and white Armani Prive gown: 10/10 (fabulous. Graphic, chic and bold all describe this look and all describe Gwen to a tee. the single stripe on the middle and the bandeau bodice is so youthful and unique. Rocker lips and hair finish off a perfect look)

Cannes Film Festival 2011- Part I

Salma Hayek

-Silver Gucci Premiere gown: 10/10 (Hollywood glamour at its best)
-Red leather Gucci dress: 3/10 (never a fan of red leather and the bolero is an overkill)

Sarah Jessica Parker

- White Dolce & Gabbana dress: 7/10 (love the springtime white, but in need of less accessories)

Mia Wasikowska

-Pink Valentino dress: 10/10 (simple, chic, pretty)
-Burgundy Roland Mouret gown: 10/10 (fits perfectly and her hair is and jewelry is spot on)

Fan Bing Bing

-Red print gown: 9/10 (such a trend setter! The hair is a bit too high though)

Tilda Swinton

-Cream blouse/Pencil skirt: 10/10 (the proportions are wonderful and those shoes delightful)
-Navy and teal Haider Ackermann gown: 20/10 (Love this! Huge fan of the designer and Tilda is just perfect for this look.)

Rachel McAdams

-White Maxime Simoens dress: 10/10 (so fun yet structured. I adore the flower detailing)

-Tan Monique Lhuiller top and pants: 8/10 (love the idea of this look, very 70's retro glam, but not sure if it fits the Cannes atmosphere. adore the red lip though!)

-Red Marchesa gown: 15/10 (By far one of my favorite looks from Rachel. So sexy with the sheerness and the retro curls. I even like her pointy gold pumps)

Blue Beauties
