Sorry I'm a little late with this... I just got back from Thailand, and my mind is actually still there.
I didn't watch the Oscar ceremony but I did get to scope the red carpet online, and can I just say I am totally surprised Sandra Bullock won best actress. I haven't seen the film but... it's Sandra Bullock! Ok I'll move on to the fashion. I'm sure everyone has seen the gowns, so I'm just going to pick the ones I really liked or really disliked.
Sandra Bullock in Marchesa - Might as well start with her. Really.. best actress? This is a very beautiful gown. The embroidery makes it classy and the colour makes it modern. Not sure about the shade of lipstick, I guess she wanted to make it a little more fun.
Jennifer Lopez in Armani Prive - It just looks soooo uncomfortable.
Demi Moore in Atelier Versace - Love this dress. It's very pretty, and the ruffles and layers are balanced with a beautiful toned down peach color.
Zoe Saldana in Givenchy Haute Couture - This looks like one dress that's over another dress. It's confusing me and there is so much going on, I don't even know where to look.
Kristen Stewart in Monique Lhuillier - Love this dress. It has attitude. A piece of jewelry would've been nice. By the way, this girl needs to work on her posture.
Rachel McAdams in Elie Saab - I don't like this actress at all. I think she ruined The Time Traveller's Wife and was trying to do the same with Sherlock Holmes. But I must say, this is my favorite gown of the night. It's very simple yet eye-catching. I want one.
Nicole Richie in Reem Acra - This dress would be OK for Meryl Streep, no offense Meryl, it's just not young enough for Nicole.
Sarah Jessica Parker in Chanel Couture - Love this. It's different. Elegant with a nice funky twist on the bust line.
Diane Kruger in Chanel - This is one of those gowns that wouldn't work on everyone. I wouldn't wear it, but I like it on her. It's vintagy but also modern and playful.
Penelope Cruz in Donna Karan - She knows which colors work for her. Classic and beautiful.
Charlize Theron in Christian Dior - She is going to look back at this and smack herself on the head. What was she thinking? Yes, I like having two flowers on my boobies.
Vera Farmiga in Marchesa - The concept is nice, but the execution is not. There is way way too much of these fan type of ruffles going on here. She almost looks like a huge napkin.
Miley Cyrus in Jenny Packham - I want to point something out. This is the first and last time I will compliment this girl (after all my age is in the double digits). This is a very beautiful dress. Love the details and the color.
Cameron Diaz in Oscar de la Renta - She looks very pretty. She's showing us her girlier side here and it works.
