Top 40 Best Dressed of 2011: Number 2

Rachel McAdams in a red lace and beige tulle Marchesa dress at the Cannes Film Festival. This was the second time this year that I saw a dress and my jaw dropped (the other one is in the number 1 spot...). This was such a bold choice for Rachel, and I can't imagine anyone else pulling of this dress better that she did (I think she looks even better than the model did!). Great hair, amazing dress, and great satin nude pumps to match.

The spread that sparked my love of all things high fashion and was the beginning of the massive fashion spread that was the wall of my old bedroom when I used to live in Philadelphia. You can see this spread below on the second and third rows on the far left of my wall!

Canadian beauty Rachel McAdams started her acting career by conquering one of the hardest on-stage scripts; Shakespeare, at her summer theatre camp at the age of 13. McAdams in probably most well known for her roles in Mean Girls as the high school blonde b-otch Regina George, and as Allie Hamilton in The Notebook, seriously dating her co-star Ryan Gosling until they officially split in 2008.

Rachel McAdams is probably my favorite celebrity, the one who I would most like to be. The first interview of her's that I read was in Elle in April of 2007. As I read the article and I became to intrigued with her (she write in a Keel's Simple Diary every night. Check them out here) and the Couture she wore in the spread is what first drew me to fashion editorials! Find out more about Ms.McAdams here
