Angelina Jolie topped our best dressed list for the beautiful blue Max Azria dress she donned on SAG night. Well...it turns out she wore the dress backwards! Not only that, a rep for Ange has confirmed that it was totally intentional. Why did she do it? Perhaps she loved the boatneck neckline it created in the front? Or maybe she wanted to show off her back (and tattoos)? Who knows, but we're glad she did it - she looked gorgeous.photos via justjared and style.com
It's a common belief that the outcome of the SAG awards are often a good gauge of where the awards will fall at the Oscars. By that logic, if the red carpet fashion is also a prediction of what's to come at next month's Academy Awards, we are in for a treat because almost everyone last night nailed it.
Red Carpet Wow!
Striking solid colors ruled Sunday night's carpet. We loved the simplicity and grace of Angelina Jolie (Max Azria). The color was magical with her complexion and hair color. And of course her choice of accessory (Brad Pitt), was pretty genius. Amy Adams (Giambatista Valli) was completely stunning as well and Laura Linney (Michael Kors) looked so pretty in an vibrant poppy one-shouldered gown and perfect clutch.

At first glance, Freida Pinto's periwinkle gown (Marchesa), seemed a little too dowdy for the young emerging actress we are such a fan of, but Freida wore it well and by the end of the night we liked it and we really can't wait to see what she wears to the Oscars. Anne Hathaway did everything right (Azzaro), as usual and Jenna Fisher (Pamela Roland) finally got it right after winding up on our worst dressed list so many times. Teri Hatcher (Monique Lhuillier) was our early pick for best dressed as she made a fashionable early entrance and America Fererra's look (Vera Wang), was familiar, but beatuiful nonetheless.
Statement Makers....But Too Bright?
Kate Winslet (Narciso Rodriguez), Eva Longoria Parker (Jenny Packham), Christina Applegate (Emmanuel Ungaro) and Viola Davis (David Meister) wore electric hues.

Michelle Obama wore a bright solid color to the swearing in ceremony, but it was by Cuban designer, Isabel Toledo, not Maria Pinto. It was a vibrant gold/green color that you don't see very often, but Michelle definitely has the confidence and complexion to pull it off. We also really liked that she wore a slightly darker shade scarf and opted for a completely different shade of green for her shoes and gloves. Those dark green pumps were a bold choice!
For the inaugural balls, Michelle wore an asymmetrical gown by Jason Wu, an emerging designer Michelle is familiar with. We could have sworn it was Marchesa at first, though! It was lovely to see Michelle in a color we haven't really seen her wear before...cream...and again, it was her quiet confidence that really allows her to pull any silhouette off. She looked comfortable and completely at ease with how her figure looked in the dress. We thought it was magical and we can't wait for better photos of the dress to hit the web.

There's no better way to say it than this. Kirstin Dunst (in Valentino), Sophia Bush (in Monique Lhuillier) and Amy Smart wowed at The Art of Elysium Heaven Gala. The Art of Elysium is a non-profit foundation that helps famous stars donate their time to children battling serious medical conditions by spending time with them through activities like acting workshops.Doesn't Sophia look unbelievably regal?
Freida Pinto, from Slumdog Millionaire, is new to Hollywood, but you'd never know it based on her red carpet style. She looks like a seasoned pro. Looks like she has a thing for hemlines that hit at the knee and peeptoe heels. Seriously...does she ever look bad?some of the photos via instyle and justjared
On the right are three looks Zooey Deschanel wore during the summer. And obviously her tastes have not changed. For winter she simply added tights to her favorite look.
Lady Gaga has a style all her own and it's Thierry.

o you agree with our favorite 2008 stories? leave a comment!
Katie Holmes was the celeb to watch in 2008. Her style was always changing and she definitely started many trends, the most popular being rolling up your jeans.
She accomplished with look with baggy, loose-fitting denim, flats and grandpa style cardigans. Many other celebs followed suit, like Sarah Jessica Parker, but no one pulled off this "love it or hate it" look quite like Katie.
She was also one of the first stars to carry the black python Chloe Paraty purse. Mary-Kate Olsen and Jessica Biel also got the bag.

Stars like Hayden Panettiere, Rachel Bilson and Cate Blanchett flipped for Herve Leger.
And pantsuits were in again too.
We were super inspired by the stars of Lipstick Jungle like Lindsay Price and Kim Raver.
Lipstick Jungle is of course, by Candace Bushnell, the author of Sex and the City. And that was quite a fashion moment of 2008 - The Sex and the City movie premiere!
We liked the looks of Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, Kim Cattrall and Kristin Davis best at the London event.
Another movie that was shot in 2008 and premieres in early 2009 is Confessions of a Shopaholic staring Isla Fisher...although we doubt we'll be as inspired by these outfits.
Many of you were interested in the similar looks of Katy Perry and Zooey Deschanel (left and middle). Lizzy Caplan (right) and Alexis Bledel have the look too.
Our favorite look this year had to be Marion Cotillard in Gaultier at the Academy Awards. Fish scales are in! The new Bond girl, Olga Kurylenko also rocked the look.
And she made a fashionable debut at many red carpet premieres.

Of course some of the most high profile celebs this year were involved in the presidential race. Politics and fashion went hand in hand for Sarah Palin and Michelle Obama.
Here she is in a stunning Tahari suit on election night.
And Michelle wore Narciso Rodriguez on election night to mixed reviews.
Ruffles were a huge trend, specifically at the Costume Institute Gala.
And Britney Spears made a shocking style comeback. Here she is wearing Rodarte for her successful 2008 album cover.
Happy New Year!
