In This Article:

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.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
