FASHION SMASHION! Young Hollywood's Oscars Hits

Well, we've unearthed the most amazing pics from this year's Red Carpet arrivals and oh-so-glam Oscar After Parties! Here's how Hollywood's hottest young fashionistas (and fashion victims!) stacked up in our little pink book this year.

STYLISH STARLETS: GL's Top 15 Fab Females

reese-witherspoon-13.jpg

REGAL REECE. America's sweetheart took home the Best Actress Oscar for her performance in Walk the Line in 2006. This year, she's a vision of effortless elegance in this eggplant number that hits all the right curves. Oh, could the hair *be* any better? So simple ... so fresh ... so flippin' fabulous. Looks like the single life is working for our fave Legally Blonde babe!

BELLA BEIL. We were in 7th (and 8th and 9th) Heaven when we saw Miss Beal wearing this fuchsia frock with a super-sexy back. (Speaking of which, this baby's GOT back...and we like it!) The cut really flattered our top-heavy hottie, though we feared another Nipplegate could errupt at any moment! Next time, Jess, try Band-Aids! You could poke somebody's eye out!

DELIGHTFUL DATE. For a chica who's best known for wearing next to nothing, Victoria's Secret sweetie Rhea Durham turned this "cover up" into a moment of classic American style. As for the arm candy? Bravo, beautiful! (Insert requisite Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch joke here.)

ELEGANT EMMY. Phantom of the Opera phenom Emmy Rossum has "It Girl" written all over her in (yet another) lovely ensemble, topped off with the perfect couture coif. Just flawless.

HAYDEN SEEK. Three cheers for this Heroes hottie's adorable (and age-appropriate) after-party style. Sometimes I forget just how gorge this girl is...I mean look at that skin! The hair and makeup? Divine. We must find out who's styling the rising starlet!

tara.jpg

PARTY GIRL. Wow, what a change. It's nice to see Tara Reid coherent and couture-clad again! While we liked the mint-green frocks Beyonce and Kate Winslet wore, this one packs a little extra punch. (Which, by the way Tara, you should probably avoid this evening!) Nice interpretation of the half-up/half-down do, too!

rinko-kikuchi-02.jpg

KUCHI COO. Mark my words, this Oscar-nominated nymph (Rinko Kikuchi) with her shy, waifish ways (and awesome bone structure!) is going to become Hollywood's darling in the coming months. (Heck, I even softened up to her crazy cottonball dress at the Golden Globes, so you KNOW she can do no wrong in my book!) Babel on, babe. It's your time to shine!

maggie-gyllenhaal-11.jpg

BLACK & BLUE. New mom Maggs G-S mixes old-school glam with a modern twist in this sophisticated yet edgy ensemble. The alabaster skin and red pout make her a standout in airbrush-tanned Tinseltown. And, no, I'm not just saying all of this because I ♥ her lil bro! (Call me, Jake!)

WHO'S THAT GIRL? Okay, I should be ashamed. I know this actress. She's lovely. She's hot right now. And on Oscar night, she was haute as all get out in her French Maid turned Moulin Rouge getup with the adorable cap sleeves. The first person to clue me in at jessica@girslife.com gets a present from the GL beauty closet -- and my undying devotion, which is of course, priceless, LOL! :mrgreen:

UPDATE: Super-sweet Gilmore Lover wins the prize! After a slight diversion into Angela Bassett territory, she realized it's Garcelle Beauvais from CSI Miami! (She also got to make out with Will Smith in the not-so-wonderful Wild Wild West!) Oh, and get this: She looks about 24, but she was born in 1-9-6-4! I need to find out what vitamins this vixen is taking, stat!

BUFFY BUMP-WATCH. While the shiftless shape of this nubile nude number has tails wagging about whether Sarah Michelle is preggers, we prefer to note that her hair color and newfound volume are va-va-va-voom. (And if you think that's just because we'll fall into fits of jealousy when it's confirmed she's carrying Freddie Prinze Jr's, um, junior...well, you're right!) The dress, by the way, is simply adorable. Cute and a tad more casual for the after-party scene.

rashida.jpg

JONESIN' 4 RASHIDA. We love how Rashida manages to look "exotic" ("Was your dad a G.I. or something?" to quote Dunder Mifflin dork Michael Scott) and like the girl next door. If you happen to live next door to Quincy Jones. It appears the rising starlet has stolen Jim from poor Pam on The Office (ah, watercooler romance!) *and* every ounce of her father's style sense. Oh well, at least one of them looks fab, and somebody's gotta pay the bills!

monica_cruz.jpg

PENELOPE WHO? We're trying to give Penelope Cruz a break after her overdone Ostrich-looking monstrosity at the Oscars ... and her subsequent bra-strosity at the Vanity Fair after party. (Though her rope-braid bun was quite beautiful!) But who cares about Penny in this pre-party pic with her sis Monica? We know virtually nothing about said sib, but we're hoping she's an actress cuz it appears her fashion sense is stellar! (This quirky frock looks like something Sienna Miller would love, no?)

jennifer-love-hewitt-boobs-05.jpg

BOOBIE PRIZE. To be honest, this dress is just eh. (And it's way past time for Love to get her not-so-baby-soft breast implants removed!) But there's just something sweet and sinewy about Jen Hewitt, isn't there? I swear the girl glows! As for her Oscar hair and makeup choice? She deserves the gold.

ellenpompeo.jpg

SERIOUSLY? SERIOUSLY. I am prepared to get major flack for this fashion review, but I am totally gaga for Ellen Pompeo's gown! It fits her anatomy perfectly, makes a statement without being silly, and stands on its own with minimal jewelry and back-to-basics Breck hair (which is looking a deeper shade of auburn than usual). We likey.

chloe_close.jpg

MUSE TO MY EARS. Wait, is that the sound of laughter I hear? Indie queen and designer muse Chloe Sevigny is a serious slave to fashion...and sometimes that leaves her looking, well, sad...like a Project Runway cast-auf or a homeless person! But tonight she's all smiles (take *that* Posh Spice!) in an origami-inspired shortie that puts Cameron Diaz's dress to shame.

beyoncegorge.jpg

LATENIGHT DREAM. We didn't abhor Beyonce's Armani-gem-clad dress as much as some critics. (Whatevs, she'd look de-lovely in potato sack.) But the Dreamgirl's after-party dress was pure perfection. She also deserves rave reviews for her Oscars performance...and the operatic, romantic red dress she wore on stage. In fact, all three ladies looked hot hot hot.

ali.jpg

SEEING DOUBLE. The maven with multiple personalities (at least on Heroes) scored in the double-digits this fresh, California-chic look. The dress may be safe, but the way it drapes is to-die-for. Meanwhile, the surfer girl waves, smokey eye and pale lip are totally hip. And the big three accessories (layered bangles, silver clutch, strappy sandals) deserve a round of applause. Just lovely, Ali Larter!

SNEAK PREVIEW!
Well, you've seen the GOOD!
Can the BAD and UGLY be far off? Not on G-Blog!
