I'm incredulous ...








about the Sydney Morning Herald (http://blogs.smh.com.au/lifestyle/fearclothing/2008/12/18/worstdressedo.html) declaring the divine Ms Blanchett as the worst dressed Aussie celebrity of 2008. How dare they criticise her! Most of these Best & Worst dressed lists are a bunch of rubbish anyway. I remember Who magazine selected Charlize Theron as their Best Dressed of 2008 when I honestly couldn't remember anything she wore apart from a lot of bad fake tan. And the rest of their list was rounded up by a bunch of models looking super generic. It is very easy for a six foot tall 22-year-old stick to look good in a pretty dress - that is their job for goodness sake - but that doesn't make them a fashionista.

The Sydney Morning Herald has claimed that Cate's overdose on metallics has made her a fashion victim, but when you are as fashion forward and daring as Cate, you and bound to have some misses as well as hits. And I still maintain that the Alexander McQueen gold bell shaped dress looked beautiful on her. It was only the skin-coloured sheath underneath that I was slightly wary of.

Cate's looked stunning in 08 a lot of the time too. Here are a few reminders ...

Grrrr ...
