Let's Talk About The Oscars!

Last night was one of the most important nights for both the fashion world and the acting world, and the event that made it so was the 87th Annual Oscar Awards.  The Oscars are always a great time for family or friends (in my case, it was me and a few of my closest friends gathered around a live stream on a computer) to come together, critique the outfit choices of our favorite celebrities, and of course, to see who wins the well deserved awards in each category.

That being said, I just can't get over what some of the celebrities wore last night!  Here are a few of my favorites:

1) Lupita Nyong'o

Lupita stunned everyone last night in a beautiful Calvin Klein gown, designed by Francisco Costa.  As you can see, the cut of the dress is classic Calvin Klein, and - get this - the outside of the dress is completely covered in pearls.  Let's face it, Lupita just deserves her own damn planet for her and other perfect people like her.

2) Emma Stone

Emma went completely old Hollywood glamour last night in a custom chartreuse Elie Saab gown.  Apparently she had a crotch slip on the red carpet at one point, but being Emma Stone ya know, she just brushed it off and went about her business.  Anyway, back to the point!  I was so in love with this dress and how she literally shined at the Oscars.  And that red lipstick is on point!

Lupita and Emma were my two favorites of the night.  As for the others, I found that I liked quite a few dresses and outfits more than some others.  I mean, let's take a look at Anna Kendrick…

Anna did a fantastic job picking out a great color for her skin tone.  The dress also fits her perfectly, and it just flows flawlessly on her.  Overall, she stunned everyone in Hollywood last night.

And now, let's take a look at Jennifer Lopez…

Now just to set the record straight, I do enjoy how Jennifer is fearless on the red carpet, and how she isn't afraid to take risks.  And the dress is quite beautiful!  However, the fit of this gown doesn't sit quite right with JLo.  I have seen her with better fitting red carpet getups in the past, and this one just didn't make the cut (literally).  Better luck next time, lady!

For a few final thoughts on last night's tailoring choices (I unfortunately do not have time to go through them all), I will say this… lots of nude and pink.  Sienna Miller can absolutely OWN Oscar de la Renta.  Oh, and if anyone can get away with wearing a green gown, it's totally Scarlett Johansson.

Until the 88th Academy Awards!
