2009 Independent Spirit Awards: Zooey Deschanel

BellaSugar — Sat, 21 Feb 2009 14:23:32 -0800

The always quirky and adorable Zooey Deschanel looked just that as she walked the red carpet at the Independent Spirit Awards on Saturday afternoon. She wore her hair long and wavy, with wispy bangs. It's an understated look, but she did add a touch of whimsy with the simple braid across the crown of her head. She added a brooch as a finishing touch. As for the makeup, she kept it light and airy, with a melon lip and lightly pinched cheeks. I think it works for this indie awards show. Do you?

2009 Independent Spirit Awards: Anne Hathaway

BellaSugar — Sat, 21 Feb 2009 14:30:56 -0800

Nominated for her role in Rachel Getting Married, Anne Hathaway looked casual and cool at today's Independent Spirit Awards. Maybe it's the fact that I can't stop staring at her wide eyes or even wider grin that makes it almost hard to notice how decidedly bare she is today. Her hair is straight and simple. Her eyes are lightly lined, with just a touch of mascara. Her lips are nearly nude. What do you think? Is Anne too plain, or fabulously flawless?

2009 Independent Spirit Awards: Rachel Weisz

BellaSugar — Sat, 21 Feb 2009 14:12:14 -0800

Rachel Weisz has such an effortless kind of beauty, whether she's sporting some dramatic dark lips or a more understated look. Here she is at the Independent Spirit Awards with a subtle pink lip and some warm gold and brown eye shadows to accentuate her hazel eyes. Well-manicured eyebrows and a tousled hairstyle complete the look. Are you "definitely" feeling this effortlessly chic style or is it "maybe" a little too laid-back?

2009 Independent Spirit Awards: Lucy Liu

If this is what 40 looks like, sign me up. Lucy Liu rarely, if ever, has a red-carpet misstep, and this is no exception. Her dress flatters her complexion, her hair is lustrous, and her makeup gives her a gorgeous glow while letting her cute freckles show through. I'm clearly a fan. Are you?

2009 Independent Spirit Awards: Penélope Cruz

BellaSugar — Sat, 21 Feb 2009 14:59:03 -0800

Have you seen Vicky Cristina Barcelona yet? It's such a pretty film, made only more beautiful by the illustrious Penélope Cruz. It's no wonder why she was nominated for her performance in the movie. But enough about her film, let's discuss her red-carpet look. From a makeup viewpoint, the focus is most definitely on her super dark and smoky eyes, where she chose a chocolate color that complemented her brown dress. The tone of her highlights is of a similar color. It's no surprise, then, that her cheeks have more of an auburn hue than the typical rosy tint. Tell me, how are you liking Penelope's autumnal aura?

2009 Independent Spirit Awards: Cameron Diaz

BellaSugar — Sat, 21 Feb 2009 14:49:48 -0800

Cameron Diaz sure has the tousled hair look down pat. Proving that you don't have to wear red lips when wearing a red dress, she sticks to pink all the way, including a pop of the feminine color on her cheeks. Her baby blue eyes are dramatic with black liner placed along the waterline. Are you loving it?

2009 Independent Spirit Awards: Jessica Alba

BellaSugar — Sat, 21 Feb 2009 14:40:01 -0800

Although most of you preferred Jessica's hair long and wavy, I think she looks no less lovely with this shorter look. With bangs swept off to either side, her locks are softly curled to skim her shoulders.

Jessica plays up her natural beauty with natural makeup. Other than liner, light lavender eyeshadow (which matches her dress), and glossy lips, she looks afternoon-appropriate with little makeup. Do you like her casually chic face or would you rather she go glam?

2009 Independent Spirit Awards: Kerry Washington

BellaSugar — Sat, 21 Feb 2009 14:38:37 -0800

Actress Kerry Washington seems to realize that you're never fully dressed without a smile. Along with that happy expression, she's wearing warm makeup colors, and a loosely waved hairstyle. Bright apricot blush, coppery eye shadow, and neutral lip gloss contrast with her cool, royal blue dress. Some smudgy black liner and highlighter under the brow bones bring the focus up towards her eyes. What do you think of Kerry's red carpet style? Is it stunning or just so-so?

2009 Independent Spirit Awards: Mariah Carey

BellaSugar — Sat, 21 Feb 2009 14:37:10 -0800

It's a sunny day in Santa Monica, I'll give her that, but those oversized sunglasses make it pretty hard to evaluate Mariah Carey's makeup. I can see her well-outlined eyes, but I'm not sure what kind of shadow or mascara she's also working up there while working the red carpet. Her cheeks are lightly colored and her lipstick's a glossy pink - no glitter in sight.

For her hair, Mariah opts for a middle part with loose waves that don't look overly styled. Do you like her look or do you simply wish we could see more?

2009 Independent Spirit Awards: Eliza Dushku

BellaSugar — Sat, 21 Feb 2009 14:35:09 -0800

OK, before we talk about Eliza Dushku's style here, I urge you to start TiVo-ing Dollhouse. Eliza stars in this new show from Joss Whedon - yes, he of Buffy brilliance - and my Whedon-worshippin' self doesn't want it to be canceled.

Now then, as for her look. I like how she's combined the typical "long, sexy waves" hairstyle with a braid to liven things up. And her skin is absolutely radiant. Compared to last year's look, this is more sophisticated. Do you think she looks like a doll, or have you lost faith in this look?
