Fashion at the 2011 New York Film Critics Choice awards – Examiner.com

Annette Bening’s fashion at the 2011 New York Film Critics Circle Awards was tailored chic. She selected a Stella McCartney jumpsuit with wide legs and embroidered bodice. She paired the design with a cropped faux fur jacket. She kept her jewelry simple with H. Stern aqua and diamond earrings. 

Michelle Williams added a bit of a creative mix and match to her fashion selection. She mixed a lace Nina Ricci top with a metallic Wren skirt. She picked black Louboutin pumps and a Chanel ring.

Bening’s look could have been better if the pants were more tailored. The outfit was a bit overwhelming. When selecting a full jacket it is better to pair it with a more slim pant. 

Michelle Williams never makes a bad fashion choice. The pieces worked well together, but were a tad uninspiring. She does color so well, that it might have been nicer to see her in something brighter.

Kerry Washington selected aqua which is a great color, but the outfit did not look appropriate for the occasion.

It seemed overall that the event from the standpoint of fashion was an informal affair.

As for talent all the ladies are tops.

Maroon 5 To Duet With Keri Hilson For Quentin Tarantino Tribute – Post Chronicle

Rockers Maroon 5 are teaming up with R&B star Keri Hilson for a very special performance at the 2011 Critics’ Choice Awards to pay tribute to revered director Quentin Tarantino.

The filmmaker is set to be feted with the inaugural Critics’ Choice Music & Film Award in recognition of his ability to enhance his cinematic storytelling with the use of a movie’s soundtrack in projects such as Reservoir Dogs, Kill Bill and Inglourious Basterds.

Maroon 5 will cover some of the songs from Tarantino’s most iconic works and they will be joined by Hilson for a rendition of Son of A Preacher Man, the track made famous by Dusty Springfield in 1968 and featured in the director’s 1994 crime classic Pulp Fiction.

Darren Aronofsky’s ballet drama Black Swan looks set to dominate the 16th annual Critics’ Choice Awards after garnering a record 12 nominations, including Best Actress for Natalie Portman.

The winners will be unveiled at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles on Friday (14Jan11) and will be broadcast live on America’s Vh1 network. (c) WENN
