Besides a pint of Ben & Jerry's Half Baked ice cream, every woman knows the best thing to cure the feelings of a bad breakup are to read
He's Just Not That Into You and then look as fabulous as possible to make your ex feel like an idiot and gain attention from new prospects!
He's Just Not That Into You empowers women, telling them no, he's just not that into you, but yes, you can do better, deserve better, and will find better.
So when
He's Just Not That Into You was adapted into a
film version with a hot, all-star cast, the women HAD to look like perfection on the red carpet, for the same reasons as a post breakup woman: to make their exes feel like idiots and gain attention from new prospects! Here's how these women did:
1. Ginnifer Goodwin looked the best by far. The bright color of this
Bottega Veneta dress against her dark hair, dark polish and statement necklace with that "come hither" stare would make any man drool. Compared to the short bob she has in the movie, the long wavy tresses ooze sex appeal. She WORKS this whole look, and I commend her for it. She's cute and sexy at the same time, and that's a pretty hard thing to achieve.
2. Jennifer Connelly is a beautiful woman, but I don't think this
Balmain dress really did her justice. She's certainly thin, but maybe a little too thin, and this dress emphasizes her skeletal, emaciated look. The color is great on her, but the dress itself looks cheap, and it looks like she's wearing shoulder pads. Also, those shoes are far too chunky for her skinny little ankles.
3. Let me say I think Jen Aniston is one of the most gorgeous women I've ever seen...plus, she has a rockin' bod. She looks magnificent here in her
Burberry tuxedo. I'll give her that. But when you look like, or rather, ARE, Jennifer Aniston, why would you wear wide-leg pants? She has great legs, cut arms, and six-pack abs. SHOW SOME SKIN, WOMAN. If you've got it, flaunt it.
4. I'm a huge Drew Barrymore fan, and here, she does it just right. What else can I say? Bows are huge right now, and the slouchy one on her
Lanvin dress is perfect because yes, it's a bow, but no, it's not overkill. It's satiny, shiny, and the perfect shade of beigey-pink against the black. The hair swept off her face makes her look fresh and flirty.
5. Okay. Here it is. The worst one of all. Most of these girls really didn't too that bad of a job dressing properly for the red carpet. But Scarlett Johansson, what were you thinking? She may be wearing an
Oscar de la Renta, but it looks more like a curtain than a dress. Her body is also so voluptuous, sometimes she just looks hefty, and this is one of those dresses that makes her look big rather than sexy. Her hair also falls flat. Literally. It's flat. Put it in an updo or something!
So despite ScarJo's general sexiness and Jennifer Connelly fatless body, we have to give it up for Jen, Drew, and Gin...they know how to dress to make him just that into you.
Stay classy and fab,

Really? Okay, so I kind of understand when celebrities start their own fashion lines. After all, these are very fashionable people who are generally dressed by a stylist, but have probably picked up some stuff here and there, so you can't really knock them for trying. But Charlie Sheen? He's not particularly fashionable. Jennifer Lopez, fine. Justin Timberlake, fine. And their lines are successful because they always look good and people want to look good like them. But do people really say they aspire to look and dress like Charlie Sheen? I don't think so...
