Well, The Oscars have come and gone again this year and it certainly did not disappoint. From Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper's romantic duet to Rami Malek's first nomination and first win all in the same night, I thoroughly enjoyed every minute. However, it is not so much anxiously awaiting to see who will win that always ropes me in, it's the fashion. I love watching the stars arrive on the red carpet to strut their stuff and I love judging their gowns and tuxes for myself even more. So here are, in my opinion, the 10 best and the worst numbers of the year.

1. Best: Lady Gaga

This queen looked absolutely elegant and breathtaking in a simple black gown. Sometimes simplicity is key.

2. Worst: Rachel Weisz

Scarlett O'Hara made a dress from her window curtains, Rachel Weisz made a dress from her shower curtain.

3. Best: Brie Larson

Sometimes when a dress is that sparkly, it can make someone look like a disco ball, but Brie Larson pulled this number off impeccably.

4. Worst: Kacey Musgraves

So that's where my missing shower loofah went!

5. Best: Charlize Theron

Some say that Charlize Theron missed the fashion mark this year, but I think she hit it spot on. As I stated previously, sometimes simplicity is key.

6. Worst: Maya Rudolph

Maya, I love you, but this was definitely not your best look.

7. Best: Amy Adams

The intricately embroidered dress was a winner in my book this year and Amy Adams is a winner in my book every day.

8. Worst: Linda Cardellini

I, for one, am not a fan of ruffles in general, but this dress was way over the top.

9. Best: Laura Harrier

This dress was probably my favorite this year - a beautiful color and beautiful embroidery for a beautiful woman!

10. Worst: Emma Stone

Good thing Emma has her suit of armor on for battle!

11. Best: Constance Wu

Yellow is not an easy color to pull off, but Constance Wu did it brilliantly.

12. Worst: Gemma Chan

Don't stare at her Gemma Chan's dress for too long, your eyes will start to hurt!

13. Best: Allison Janney

Allison Janney knocked it out of the park this year which only reaffirms the fact in my mind that she can do no wrong.

14. Worst: Glenn Close

And the award for "Best Imitation of an Actual Oscar" goes to....

15. Best: Kiki Layne

Kacey Musgraves, take notes, this is how you pull off pink.

16. Worst: Sarah Paulson

Sarah must have been channeling her "American Horror Story" training because this dress gave me nightmares.

17. Best: Henry Golding

Henry Golding honoring the Golden Age of Hollywood in this swanky tux? YES PLEASE!

18. Worst: Olivia Colman

Good thing Olivia Colman won an Oscar this year because she was definitely not going to be winning "Best Dressed."

19. Best: Billy Porter

Billy Porter definitely wins the award for "Most Unique." #Slayme

20. Worst: Tessa Thompson

Was anyone else reminded of the leg lamp from "A Christmas Story?" Sorry Tessa, but I don't think that's what you were going for.

Some honorable mentions in the "best" category include Regina King, Melissa McCarthy, Helen Mirren, Emilia Clarke, Amandla Stenberg, and Elsie Fisher.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
