Meg Ryan's Bold Movie Premiere Dress

Meg Ryan is a natural beauty who can slip on a simple black dress and look instantly red carpet-ready.

So why, we wonder, did she opt for this unusual long-sleeve dress, that looked more like an Oriental rug than a premiere-worthy gown? Take a look at Meg's outfit, plus other stars who had an "off" style day:

You Had A Bad Day
Even stars have bad days when it comes to their style. Check out the A-listers we caught in an "off" outfit.

You Had A Bad Day

    At the "Serious Moonlight" movie premiere on December 3, 2009, Meg Ryan wore a long-sleeve, full-length floral dress that reminded us of an Oriental rug. The star usually looks effortlessly gorgeous in simpler, chicer attire, as seen here (right) at another event.

    In sweats and white running shoes no one would believe Katie Holmes is considered to be a style icon. By keeping a simple gray top and a scarf, but ditching the disastrous bottom half of the outfit, Holmes looks fashion forward but not over dressed.

    Drew Barrymore's plaid frock and combat boots ensemble (right) is a throwback to the grunge-filled '90s. It's not necessary date night attire (she is out on the town with on-again-off-again-on-again beau Justin Long). On a different day, the actress rocks flannel in true hipster fashion with a cropped leather jacket, an Iron Maiden tee, and lace-up knee high boots. (Bonus points to you Ms. Barrymore for matching your sunglasses to your belt!)

    An oversized hoodie and Uggs can't conceal the fierceness that is known as Beyonce. The pop singer landed at JFK International Airport in New York City with her entourage of bodyguards dressed like a college freshman. But on a brighter day, she touches down dressed in head-to-toe black including trendy sunglasses to block the camera's flash.

    Bauer-Griffin

    The 42-year-old singer wore this Ugly Betty meets Fat Albert inspired ensemble out to lunch with a friend. Now we know your friends are supposed to love you unconditionally, but even a BFF would be within their rights to be slightly embarrassed dinning out with someone in this outfit! On a much better day Janet Jackson proves she knows how to work a classic L.B.D. to create a chic low maintenance look.

    Sure, everyone loves to wrap up in a warm comforter, but the Grey's Anatomy's starlet looks took that cozy concept to the next leaving, wearing a top that resembles a blankie with sleeves. On a better day, Katherine Heigl's tunic and boots combo proves that style and comfort can go together.

    Splash News

    Menswear is hot this season, but that doesn't mean you can mix any old item you find in your BF's closet into your wardrobe. This XL hoodie and long skirt combination looks just plain lazy and adds major pounds to Jessica Simpson's petite 5 foot 3 inch frame. Simpson shows she can do menswear the right way, rocking a double breasted blazer with tailored jeans.

    Splash News

    Sky-high stilettos are not meant to be paired with a baseball hat, Eva Longoria, not on the red carpet and not even when you're running errands. As the Desperate Housewife clearly knows, a plain button down paired with skinny jeans and flats is the fashion forward way to race around town.

    Splash News/x17.com

    Mary-Kate Olsen is eccentric and we respect that, but if she must wear something that resembles a yak pelt, the least she can do is pair it with slim leggings and stylish boots, rather than denim cut-offs and Converse.

    Bauer-Griffin

    In essence both these looks are comprised of a ponytail, a tank top and a casual pant, but swapping baggy sweats for a flattering pair of jeans takes Hilary Duff's look from a sloppy don't to a classic fashion do.

OH MY GOD!!! Who do these celebrities think they are dressing like normal people! People won't go see their movies anymore. What a travesty. They should be ashamed of themselves trying to be like every other American. What will happen next? The world is now a much lesser place. The sky will fall and all the snow will melt. All we now have to look forward to is death.
I am so glad the reporters took the time to ignore silly topics such as war, the economy, health care and crime. Thank God we have such public service minded people running today's news organizations.
A truely memorable piece of authentic journalism. Give this writer a Pulitzer, all our stimulus money and a new U.S. Government Chevy. Where would we be without such talent?
Ok, I'm done. I can stop throwing up now...

I LOVE the dress, but Meg's head is too big for her body. She looks like a refuge from some camp where they starved the detainees.
