Shania Twain is Giuseppe Zanotti Gorgeous at CMAs

Shows She’s Not Just a Pretty Face.  And That Her Ex is An Idiot.

The reason why “looking good is the best revenge” is such a cliché?  Because it’s so true.  Case in point:  Shania Twain.  After dumping hubby Mutt Lange for allegedly cheating (the dog!) with a family friend, the country singer hit the CMA red carpet with her chin, and the girls, held high.  After the stylish comeback of the likes of Sophia Bush and Anne Hathaway during her Get Smart press tour while her ex was getting sent down from the penthouse to the jailhouse, the red carpet is the place to be to get your chic revenge.  Sure, looking good is its own reward, but it’s doubly good when you can rub it in someone else’s face.

In her first red carpet appearance since the split, Shania seems to be following her own musical advice:  “Man! I Feel Like a Woman!”  The chart-topping superstar showed off just what Mutt is missing in a cleavage-boosting sleeveless dress that bares oodles of sun-kissed skin, accessorized with loosely tussled hair that Cameron Diaz would envy and gorgeous Giuseppe Zanotti floral heels.

Further rubbing salt in Mutt’s soon-to-be single wounds, Shania earned a standing O when she took the stage to present the entertainer of the year award to Kenny Chesney in a low-cut Missoni gown.  Bravo, indeed!  Oh, congrats to you too, Kenny.

Look out Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift.  The queen of cross-over country pop is gearing up for a comeback.  Thanks for keeping the seat warm.

Golden Globe Predictions: Anne Hathway, Kate Winslet, Penelope Cruz Red Carpet

Angelina Jolie Dress Guess: Versace

Hollywood’s A-list haven’t consumed carbs in days. It’s award season, and looking their best this coming Sunday trumps whole-grain consumption. Despite an economic recession, the Golden Globes are promising us a star-studded party, a glamorous mingling of our beloved TV friends and inaccessible movie stars. Oh, to be a guest at Brangelina’s table….

Sure, some of the fun comes from the wine-loosened acceptance speeches, but for us mere mortals, the fashion eye candy is where it’s at. Instead of merely waiting for Sunday’s red carpet arrivals, let’s take a look at gowns we hope we see paraded before us. We hear whispers of toned-down old-school glamour. In tough times, no one wants to hear about false mink eyelashes. We’re looking at you, Mrs. Marc Anthony….

Anne Hathaway

It’s been Anne’s year to rule the red carpet, with a knockout streak of looks, from the Get Smart press tour to the Rachel Getting Married premieres. As a nod to the nuptial theme of both Rachel and the just-opening Bride Wars, we’d love to see nominee Anne continue her fashion-forward run in an architectural white Versace. She’s young, she’s gunning for an Oscar, and she’s probably the only one on the red carpet who can pull it off. We’re on Team Hathaway. Criminal boyfriends are so 2008. Check out the couture shoes on sale at ZapposCouture!

Angelina Jolie

Angelina could wear a paper bag and it wouldn’t matter. Relying on classic blacks and neutrals for some time, we’re anticipating something magnificently simple, regal, and perfectly complementary to the world’s greatest accessory, Brad Pitt. Both nominated, this is the power couple to beat. Both in style and talent. We’re counting on envying Angie in something like the one-shouldered Versace above.

Cate Blanchett

As evidenced by her stunning performance in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Cate Blanchett’s flawless. This gives her a free pass to wear couture on the red carpet. Or anywhere, really. Cate, if you so choose, wear a gown to the grocery store. We will only stand back and applaud. Or wear it Sunday night. A long-time fan of Armani couture, Blanchett would turn heads in this low-cut embellished number. Of course, she may save it for the Oscars.


Kate Winslet
A double-nominee, Kate has recently been turning heads in shorter numbers as she makes the rounds with Revolutionary Road and The Reader. As a nod to Road (and the recent Mad Men phenomenon in fashion) we hope she continues her figure-flaunting style with Zac Posen’s modern take on retro glam.
Amy Adams

Please, Amy, shed the drabness of your Doubt attire and sparkle in a strapless emerald Reem Acra gown. We’ve seen you go deep hunter green, now embrace something a little brighter. You’re running with the A-list now. (And if you can’t get over the Christmas-tree connotations, opt for the muted beauty of Elie Saab. Stunning.)

Miley Cyrus

We have no advice here. No real predictions. Just a faint hope that Miley will look (and dress) like a teenager, not like an old woman, fashion victim, or Lohan-in-training.

Penelope Cruz

Penelope Cruz and Oscar de la Renta are made for each other. The end.

Who will win? More importantly, what will they wear? And will Jon Hamm be smart enough to dress as his alter ego, Don Draper? Be sure to check out the Golden Globes this Sunday.
