Best Dressed

It’s a beautiful Monday morning.

Yesterday evening after work, I considered going out to a bar to watch the Oscars, but instead I decided to stay home in sweat pants and a t-shirt; I’m glad I did. I was so unimpressed with the fashions and as for the actual show, hated it.
None of the women really wowed me! Overall, I thought the men looked way better. But, anyways, I thought I’d give my opinions. Here is my short list for best and worst dressed.
BEST:

1) Hailee Steinfeld- she looked like perfection in her Marchessa gown.
2) Helen Mirren- She looked gorgeous and statuesque; she always does.
3) Mila Kunis- If she didn’t look so miserable, I would have given her best dressed.

WORST:
1) Melissa Leo- It can’t get much worse than this dress.
2) Marissa Tomei- I don’t recall her ever looking fashionable.
3) Scarlett Johansson- she looked messy and I didn’t like the fuscia color on her.

Surprisingly, I did like the way Sharon Stone looked in her Christian Dior black dress.

The piece here is titled “Charlize’s Little Red Monster.” Charlize Therons 2004 Oscar win for her role as Aileen Wuornos in Monster inspires it. She looked absolutely gorgeous in her Gucci dress; she looked like an old time movie star.
Having had the sketch done many years ago, I spent all day Saturday painting it. In the middle of painting this Little Girl, I had second thoughts and had to do some layering. The little red, barely visible figure is a remnant of a ‘change of mind;’ in the end, I loved the way it came out.

Today, I will work on finishing up my Joan Rivers Little Girl; she is almost done.

Have a beautiful Monday day and week ahead.
