So after getting back from work last night I happened to catch the 2008 Mtv Movie Awards. I really could care less who won or who was there; I just wanted to see what people wore or as they like to say it, "Who are they wearing?"
Here are my top 3 in no particular order:
Ben Barnes
I don't know what else to say but this man is gorgeous. Okay that's actually beside the point of this post. Lol. I have been fascinated with menswear lately since I've discovered the coolest menswear clothing line called Public School. And so it was no surprise to me that I loved this look. What I really love about his whole outfit is how different it is from the other guys in the show. Instead of going for the typical black leather jackets or black shiny blazers, Mr. Prince Caspian is wearing a safari-inspired Gucci jacket in khaki! That choice alone made him stand out from the rest of the guys. The tailoring of the jacket is impecable too; it fitted his body so well. I also liked how he didn't go for another typical menswear item--graphic t-shirt-- to go under his jacket; instead he picked a white, horizontally striped v-neck shirt that added to the summer-cool look he has going on. The jacket is the one item I adored the best in his outfit but the overall outfit is perfect and all pieces flatter each other wonderfully. He just looked cool and understated. Perfect for an award show that is set in the beginning of the summer.
Sarah Jessica Parker
Yeah like this post wouldn't include SJP. Her L'Wren Scott dress and shoe just worked together. Individually you woud think, "Um these two pieces together? Really?" But they did. The whole look screamed, "I'm a fashionista who knows how to take risk without looking like I tried too hard." These young starlets better have taken their notepads out and took down notes on how to do it. Right.
Liv Tyler
The color of the dress might say otherwise but I think everything about this look was subtle and soft. Live it to Ms. Tyler to make that happen. Her soft waves and soft make-up allowed her dress to be the focal point and that's really how it should be. And she made the right choice not to wear any gaudy accessories. Another actress that young starlets should be looking for fashion pointers.
(One a side note: I originally had "top 5" but after going through the photos for the show I couldn't find two more so I settled for my top 3 instead. Some celebs just don't know how to dress at all.)
Lanvin
Love SJP !!! She's just amazing. My favourite of the night for sure
1Good choices! I love the color of Liv Tyler dress.
2I agree with SJP. She's amazing and can do no wrong!
3I liked what SJP wore. Last night when I saw Liv Tyler on the tube I wasn't crazy about the dress, it looks better in the picture you posted.
4I think Liv's dress colour is Coral? SJP looks great - don't like the boots w/it though...
5Ben Barnes knows how to dress ( and it helps that he is gorgeous
.) The jacket he wore is
perfect and stands out among the sea of boring blazers.
I am actually very torn on SJP's look; one minute I love it, then next I dislike it. So my opinion varies. However this look is very memorable which is something I would rarely say.
I adore Liv's dress however I dislike the shoes. Overall she looked lovely however it wasn't a stand out look for me.
6leelvuv, i agree. i've seen all the promos he has done and ben barnes just KNOWS how to dress and i'm in love with his style (or his stylist's style, lol).
as for liv tyler. i didn't notice the shoes until a while ago, but compared to all the other looks she was one of my favs.
7Whether his outfits are his own creation or his stylists, the look is perfect. He doesn't dress like all the other men (who are really just a sea of trend followers.)
I agree, compaired to everyone else Liv definitely stood out. The outfits were pretty disappointing last night, so it was refreshing to see a few lovely looks.
8yeah i was getting so bored looking at all the guys, and then i saw a photos of him and i fell in love with what he was wearing. i know i have "in no particular order" up there, but he was my no. 1 best dressed for any of the gender.
i agree, the outfits WERE pretty disappointing last night and that's why instead of having top 5 that i had planned on doing i ended up with only 3 b/c i really couldn't find anyting worth including with my first three choices.
9Obviously I've been living under a rock, because I didn't know who Ben Barnes was, I do now! I think he looks perfect, I love his choice of clothes, he looks effortlessly fantastic.
I'm torn on SJP. I think I don't really care for her dress or the shoes, so I guess I'm more nay than ya
10i lke the color of lizs dress but the dress itsself ot so much personally i thought it was not good at all
11Liv was my favourite of the night.
12I gotta to be the odd man out I guess, SJP shoes look like she wearing ice skates. I really wanted her to do a triple sow cow or something.
Style Before Comfort!
13Ben and LIV look wonderful! SJP, I'm not so sure I love. It's a cool dress but to me the whole look is a bit blah.
14i LOVE SJP's outfit!!
15I love SJP. Liv, I'm torn. Ben... definitely a winner.
