Oscars | Cardigan

As someone who loves fashion, Oscar night is always exciting and last night was no exception; at least fashion wise. I do need to say a few things first before I give my fashion opinion…Boyhood, could someone please explain all the hubbub?! Ok, it took 12 years to make but I found it painfully boring and couldn’t finish watching it. I know several other people who felt the same way. And the Oscar themselves…kinda boring. I fell asleep. Missed Lady Gaga.

Now for the fun stuff, the dresses, hair, make-up and jewelry! The statement necklaces were beautiful, the red gowns were lovely but the wavy bob I am not a fan. One more thing I wasn’t crazy about were the bandage type dresses worn by Jennifer Aniston and Zoe Saldana. Don’t get me wrong, they looked stunning just not Oscar worthy. But what is Oscar worthy? I guess it depends on who you’re asking. These are my picks…

Julianne Moore in custom, handmade Chanel gown…stunning!

Maggie Robbie in flowing Saint Laurent

Lupita Nyong’o in Calvin Klein pearl dress-a show stopper.

Sienna Miller in navy Oscar de la Renta-beautifully sophisticated.

Dakota Johnson in Saint Lauren looks elegantly chic with a simple ponytail.

Cate Blanchett in Margiela gown and gorgeous turquoise statement necklace.

Gwyneth Paltrow in Ralph & Russo one sleeved, corsage shoulder gown looks amazing!

Last night was a big night not only for the movie industry but for the fashion industry as well because let’s face it, lots of people watch the Oscars just to see what the stars are wearing. I love to watch the shows that highlight the red carpet fashions and I really thought last night that just about everyone looked fabulous, not too many misses. Here are my favorites…

Lupita Nyong’o Absolutely Stunning in Nairobi Blue by Prada-pleated heaven.

Cate Blanchett Glowing in Armani-elegant and feminine.

Chrissy Teigen Looking Radiant in a Printed Floral by Monique Lluillier-gorgeous color combo.

Jennifer Lawrence Ravishing in this Orange Dior Couture Gown with Peplum.

And now for the best dressed men. Men don’t have quite the same options as women but they can still make their mark and here are the three that I think hit the mark perfectly!
