2013 Oscars... #DressEnvy

So, did we all watch the Oscars? Me, I think I love the red carpet more than the actual awards ceremony. I could mention a dozen fabulous dresses but some of my favourites were worn by ....

Stacy Kiebler...I love this Naeem Khan dress,I think it's stunning. I do think she could have maybe done something a bit edgier with her hair. I think she could have gone for something sleek,I feel her hair is a bit to girly and romantic for such a "wow" dress. Overall though, she was definitely one of the best dressed and had Clooney too...so much win!


Jennifer Lawrence....Now this is a lot of dress! It may not have been the best to walk up stairs to collect your Oscar in but , hey, who cares.She looked beautiful, the bottom half of this Dior gown is so big and dramatic, the top so fitted that it gave a great shape and silhouette,  it looks like a winners dress! The necklace draped down her back was fab and probably something we'll all now see on so many people.
Jessica Chastain..... Old Hollywood Glamour! If I'd been told a pale red head could pull off this Armani Prive dress and not look washed out I wouldn't have believed it, but I think she totally pulled it off. Love the red lippy, for me it pulls it together ,makes it look glamorous and gives some colour. I may be a bit biased about this look as I simply love,love,love Old Hollywood Glamour!
Naomi Watts..... gorgeous! This metal Armani Prive dress is different but beautiful. The structured top is stunning, unusual and really makes an impact. This is probably a love it or hate it dress but, personally, I love it.


Honourable mention...some dresses that didn't make me go wow but are undeniably beautiful...

Kerry Washington...love the colour and the fabulous detailing on the top half of this Miu Miu dress
Zoe Saldana...again,great detail on top,the belt makes it interesting and the ombre effect bottom half of this Alexis Mabille dress is beautiful
And my least favourite dress of the night was worn by.... Anne Hathaway. She's never the most daring dresser but this Prada dress was surprisingly bland. I'm not a fan of the colour, what was with the seams on the bust and why on earth did she wear that necklace with a dress with such a high neck. I've read that she had a last minute dress change as her first choice,a Valentino dress, was incredibly similar to a dress being worn by another actress.Not a good situation but, really, this was the best option for second choice??
And as if the front wasn't bad enough,what is going on with the back??

And just cos..here's some hot guys in tuxes..enjoy!

  2. Erin! You can skip the Oscars but you cannot skip the red carpet ;-) Clooney said in interviews that the beard is for a role so hopefully it'll be gone soon,that face can't be hidden!
