Fashion Fix: The good, the bad and the meh on the red carpet this week

Some stars sparkled, and some appeared to be wearing wrinkled bedsheets

<p>It's the hazy, lazy, sorta crazy days of summer -- and it seems some celebrities are using that as a license to wear outfits that should have been sent off to Goodwill instead of memorialized on the red carpet. Take a look at the week in fashion with Meryl Streep, Brooke Shields, Jennifer Garner and other stars to find out who scored, who flopped, and who looked just plain blah. </p>

      dan Guest - Liane has done regular Red Carpet write-ups for HitFix over the years. Also, when I look over our homepage, I see interviews, reviews, news stories and... one fashion gallery. Not quite "Fashion Police."

      guest I'm not calling HitFix fashion police for the volume of fashion related articles, I'm referring to the fact that it's an article skewering stars' red carpet fashion, like it's the fashion police or something.It seems out of place on HitFix, and more like something you'd find on E!online.

      weed4504 Not to disagree Dan, but my first thought when I saw the article was "When did Hitfix start doing fashion?" I'm not angry about it or anything, it did throw me for a second though.

      If you've done it in the past it's been infrequent enough for me to have forgotten.

      dan Weed4504 - You'd be hard-pressed to disagree because I can dig up red carpet commentary Liane has done for every award show in the past two-ish years. It's been a regular part of our award show coverage.

      This is, however, the first time we've experimented with any kind of weekly coverage. It's still one piece of fashion/celebrity-related coverage from an entire week of all of the other stuff we do.

      Sometimes, ya gotta mix stuff up a little!

      weed4504 I believe you. I just probably have never noticed or never clicked on it before.

      All that said, I think Jessica Biel and Kristin Cavallari look great and she's being a bit harsh.

    Excuse me but Meryl ,as always, looks f**king perfect. How many 63 year olds do you know that have a gorgeous body like that. And FYI, the belt does not belong in the 80s!!
