My Top 10 'Women Who Always Look Perfect At Awards Shows'

The Grammys were last week. The Oscars are next week. The Emmys were you know, like, a few weeks ago. And then there's all the little ones happening left right and centre giving celebrity magazines a reason to jump for joy - Yes! We can fill our pages with current pictures!
Anywho. In the spirit of Awards Season I have created My Top 10 'Women Who Always Look Perfect At Awards Shows'

1. Victoria Beckham
Okay, okay. She is far from Awards Show royalty. But I love her. And god knows she goes to enough shows to get a mention.
Here she is at one of the openings for one of her pairs of jeans. Or fragrances. Or tailored dresses. I can't keep up. How could anyone not admire a woman who decides to challenge the high heel. On ya' Vicki B.



2. Penelope Cruz.
I'm sure the sultry European accent helps. The killer body and pouty lips probably help aswell. But this chick sure knows how to pull off a dress. Her Atelier Versace Oscar dress STILL makes the best dressed lists, and was part of InStyle's best dresses of the decade. Flawless.



3. Kate Hudson.
I think I just love her because she is so fun. She is the textbook definition of 'walks into a room and lights it up'. She wore a Marchesa frock to the Golden Globes this year. It is like a grecian sculpture, and not many ladies I can think of would be able to work that look like Kate does.



4. Marion Cotillard
The essence of Parisian Glamour. She was draped in Jean Paul Gaultier as she accepted her Oscar for playing French songstress Edith Piaf. Absolutely stunning. Never puts a foot wrong. She’s also getting pretty interesting these days – clearly not just an extraordinarily pretty face. She has signed on with Dior and is collaborating with Franz Ferdinand.



5. Kate Winslet.
Now we’re talking Awards Show Royalty. If she’s not winning every year, she’s nominated. Always classy in greens, blues and blacks, this siren has as many beautiful gowns as she does naked pictures. She seems to enjoy getting her kit off but kudos to her! Paving the way for females who are happy with their body, that’s what we like to see.



6. Kate Beckinsale.
Another Kate. Maybe it’s the name. Not to self, change name to Kate. This stunner knows how to pull off a figure hugging fishtail dress. Kate is clad in J Mendel for the Golden Globes. Posh and Kate are supposed to be pretty chummy. I wonder if VB gave Kate some 'this is how you stay v skinny' tips?



7. Oprah Winfrey.
The Big O. She knows well enough that when she needs a gown, she goes to Vera Wang, and she gets a gown. Probably the best thing about Oprah is that she doesn’t have the sort of figure that can walk up to a designer and say ‘dress me’. O has to work for it and still pulls off an amazing look. You go girl.



8. Zoe Saldana.
Every time I read this woman’s name I read Zoe Salada. She probably wouldn’t appreciate that. Oh well. This occasionally blue specimen has crept onto my list slowly with all this Avatar hype. Everywhere she has been seen recently, she has looked a million dollars. I don’t know how exactly you could make a Louis Vuitton dress look bad, and Zoe definitely doesn’t. This dress seems as if it were designed specifically for her.



9. Rachel Zoe.
Seen here at Bravo’s 2nd Annual A-List Awards in a Notte by Marchesa gown, you can see why Rachel Zoe continues to gather a large following. I’m not a huge fan of hers. She’s all skinny and makes all these other pretty girls all skinny, but the woman definitely has my respect. She can throw an outfit together quicker than you can say Bananas.



10. Nicole Kidman.
Another woman that doesn’t really float my boat. Shake it up Nicole! However she does make this list because even though she is totally boring, she does always look perfect. Red Balenciaga. Yum Yum.
