Yay or Nay: People's 10 Best Dressed Celebrities- Comment to Win!

Posted by Alexandra C. | Monday September 17, 2012

People Magazine just came out with their list of the 10 best dressed ladies in Hollywood, but I have to say, I am a little perplexed. I hate to say it, but I'm not sure if all these starlets are deserving of their spot on the top 10 list. Mixed feelings for Gwyneth aside, I appreciate her sense of style. But, number one? Meh. I'm not buying it. I'm wasn't sure if I am alone in this feeling, so I thought it would make an excellent topic of discussion for this week's Yay or Nay.

#10- Jennifer Lawrence

Does she merit the spot? So, I'm kind of in serious girl crush love with Jennifer Lawrence (I like to call her JLaw). She's so beautiful and chooses figure flattering and daring outfits. Right now she's new to the game and still needs to prove her fashion chops, so the number 10 spot suits her perfectly.

#9- Diane Kruger

Does she merit the spot? Diane is no stranger to the Yay or Nay hot seat (see here and here). She doesn't hit it out of the park every time. Overall, I think she has an exotic and envelope pushing sense of style. I'd actually like to see her higher up on the list.

#8- Jessica Alba

Does she merit the spot? I think Jessica Alba is the product of expensive clothes and a good stylist. She always looks put together, yes, but I don't see any creativity. I think maybe she and Diane or even JLaw could trade spots.

#7- Rihanna

Does she merit the spot? When Rihanna does good, the lady does good. She's constantly changing up her style and I respect her for that. Does she always look flawless? No. But hey, she experiments and has fun with fashion.

#6- Reese Witherspoon

Does she merit the spot? Reese is no doubt, a very stylish mommy to be. But #6 on this list? Sorry Reese, I just don't think so.

#5- Miranda Kerr

Does she merit the spot? When I first saw her name on the list, I didn't get it at all. Sure she's beautiful, but #5? So I did a bit of research, looked at some photos and now I get it, she's got something going on, this one! Whether she's walking on the street or at an event, she always nails it.

#4- The Kardashian Sisters

Does she (they) merit the spot? First of all, these sisters should not count as one spot. I call foul, People magazine! Secondly, I am reluctant to admit that these ladies have excellent style or taste. They clearly have pro help in this arena but I will try to not hold that against them. I could see them getting #8 or #7, but #4? Nah, sorry Kardashians, it's a pass from me.

#3- Emma Stone

Does she merit the spot? After JLaw, my second girl crush is Emma Stone. She's so cute and adorable. I wish she and I could be BFFs. She's really risen as a style star in the past few years and always looks classic and sophisticated. She's a bit edgy but not over the top. Well done, Ms. Stone!

#2- Kate Middleton

Does she merit the spot? Kate has this ridiculous knack for always wearing the most appropriate outfit for any occasion and always looking good in it. Remember her dragon boat racing outfit? How is it even possible for any one to pull that off with such ease? I do think that #2 is a bit overrated, she needs a few years to prove her worthiness.

#1- Gwyneth Paltrow

Does she merit the spot? I mentioned above that I was not convinced that she deserved this spot and I will say it again because it just needs re-enforcement: no, she does not merit this spot. She takes few risks and has a team behind her telling her what looks best. If she isn't on a red carpet, her street style lacks serious lustre. I get that she has that effortless chicness, but it doesn't warrant this top spot!

What do you think of the best dressed list? Were there any surprises? Was anyone left out? Do you disagree/agree with any of the spots? Leave a comment below by September 23rd and you could win a prize!

Diane Kruger- I love that she always takes risks, some of her outfits are amazing and some not so much, but I think that she deserves to be higher up on the list. Jessica Alba- While she does have pretty practical and cute street style, I agree that most of her outfits are just too boring for her to be considered in the top ten best dressed. Rihanna-Maybe I'm biased because I really dislike Rihanna, but I think her outfits are always hit or miss, and unfortunately most of them are misses. Reese Witherspoon--Really? I googled her style from when she wasn't pregnant as well and it was still just as boring. Miranda Kerr-I don't pay attention to her style either, but from the pictures I can guess that she is pretty well dressed. The Kardashian sisters- Most of the outfits are ridiculously boring and unflattering, how did they end up on this list? Emma Stone-I think she deserved to be number one, her style is always a little bit edgy and fashion forward but still has a classic feel. Kate Middleton- While most of her outfits are pretty boring, I do agree that she always looks well put together and always has the perfect outfit for the event, but I don't think she deserves to be that high on the list. Gwyneth Paltrow- She has had some great red carpet moments, but her street style is nothing to write home about. Overall, I think People could have done better with this list.

She should find more flattering, colorful outfits that complement her complexion. Jessica Alba is always trendy! Rhianna is beautiful, but she's hit and miss on looks. Some days she's just a hot mess! Reese Witherspoon is a cutie, no matter what she has on! She'll look child-like forever I imagine! Miranda Kerr has great stuff, but must be color blind. Nothing goes together! As for the K sisters, I will forever think Kourtney is the classiest and snappiest dresser. I think she gets tips from Scott, who also always looks dapper! Emma Stone misses the mark for me every time... sorry. Princess Kate is the most beautiful girl in the world... even when she bares her chest. I saw those photos, and while obtrusive, still not tasteless. Rock it royalty! And lastly Gwenyth Paltrow... ever a lady and always stunning!!

	on September 17, 2012 Tiffmorris 1,792 said: Nay! I Don't think Gwen is spot on often enough for the #1 spot, too many worst dressed lists in her past for that, especially when she only looks put together on the red carpet. I'm quite surprised Nicole Ritchie wasn't on the list, or Victoria Beckham, they are huge fashion icons that deserve that spot way more then gwen.
