Oscars 2011 Fashion Recap

How cute was Anne Hathaway as host last night?? As for Mr. Franco, he was a little….off? OK, so I’m pretty sure he was hitting the ganja during commercial breaks. But they were both pretty adorable nevertheless. I also really loved the younger, hipper vibe of the awards and thought the night had some pretty special moments (OMGz, Trent Reznor won an Oscar!).

And now on to the good stuff! The fashion!

I was loving all the lavender on the red carpet, especially Cate Blanchett’s perfectly quirky gown with its bits of chartreuse beading. I though it was so perfect. I know a lot of people weren’t feeling it, but I so was. Then again, I’m pretty sure Cate can’t do any wrong. Mila looked absolutely stunning in her sexy, yet demure number and her bestie, Natalie Portman was wearing a darker shade of purple that was equally gorgeous. Anne Hathaway looked so old Hollywood glam in her show-stopping red gown, and finally Gwyneth looked like a modern day Oscar statuette herself in that beautiful slinky gold gown. Pure perfection, ladies!

Not many on my worst dressed list this year, but these two had enough ugly to fill 10 slots. Oh, Nicole Kidman, why. The dress kind of reminds me of long weekends in Pompano Beach as a child in cheap Ramada Inn’s. I swear this dress has the same pattern as those terrible bath towels. No, no, and no. And as for you, Marisa. I just have two words: Jessica McClintock and possibly another two: Senior Prom.

Also, another trend I noticed that I didn’t dig: men sans grooming. I saw so many hot men that seemingly forgot to shave for one of the biggest nights in Hollywood (I’m looking at you, Christian Bale). Don’t get me wrong, I love facial hair. I just believe it has to be groomed appropriately. Boys, just look to Hugh Jackman for reference. Please and thank you.

So who do you think took the titles of best and worst dressed? Let me know in the comments if you agreed with me or disagreed!

Pretty in Oscar

I’m going to have to forego posting about my weekend this Monday so that I can pay homage to the Oscars Red Carpet – afterall, I know celebrity gawking and gossip is way more entertaining than my own life, right? Right.

I have to say that I was a bit disappointed with the level of glamor this year at the Oscars. It seemed like everyone was “playing it safe” when it came to their gown choice. Everyone’s outfits kind of resembled dresses I would see being worn at any black tie wedding. I mean, I’m sure they are thousands of dollars more, but you get me?

Although there weren’t many, here are my favorites from the night:

And my not so favorites:

So what did you guys think? Do you agree? Disagree?

Have a fabulous week, everyone!
xoxo
