Michelle Williams in Louis Vuitton at the Spirit Awards: lovely or tacky?

Last night, the Independent Spirit Awards were held in LA – you can see the list of winners and nominees here. Michelle Williams walked away a winner, at last, for Best Actress for My Week With Marilyn. I don’t hate her victory here – just as long as there isn’t a chance in hell she’ll win at the Oscars. Anyway, the Spirit Awards always seem like a fun night, and it must be nice for celebrities to go to an awards show in casual/business clothes. In past years, people have shown up in jeans and tank tops, but these days, more people are actually putting together “looks”. Take Michelle – if there was ever a time for her to wear one of her high-necked, Peter-Pan-collared baby doll dresses, the Spirit Awards would be it. But Michelle decided to go for a more modern look in Louis Vuitton, with a dark blazer, short “dress” shorts and a blouse. I don’t hate the outfit, I just wish the blazer had a slimmer cut, and I would have paired the blazer and shorts with something other then a blouse buttoned all the way to the neck. Still, Michelle has great legs, and I like that she’s showing them off more. One last (bad) thing: her Beatle haircut is starting to make her look like one of the Children of the Corn.

Here’s Michelle’s date (I’m sure), Busy Phillips in vintage. Dear God, this dress is AWFUL. You know I like Busy Phillips, but why does she always make herself look like ass when she’s Michelle’s “date”? Is it to make Michelle look good?

Jeffrey Dean Morgan and his baby-mama/girlfriend Hilary Burton were there. She plucks my last nerve, and he needs a shave. I’m still not sure about them as a couple too.

Here’s Jessica Chastain in Armani. Will she choose Armani for the Oscars? The thing about Armani is that it’s usually a very clean, simple look. Which could be very boring on Chastain. Of course, if left to her own devices, I think Chastain’s personal style is probably pretty rough, so Armani it is.

Shailene Woodley in PANTS!! I love that this girl wears pants on the red carpet. I love this outfit too, the black pants with the sparkly shirt and the interesting shoes (?? I’m not a shoe person). She won Best Supporting Actress too, for The Descendants.

Kiki Dunst in Dolce & Gabbana. She looks really, really good here. I would have loved to have seen Michelle Williams in this outfit.
