And the Oscar goes to ......

Who gives a shit, lets just check out what the A - listers are wearing!

Ok so i need to start by saying for those who have read the previous blog on VB i apologise for getting it wrong! She had lied to me, or rather changed her mind im sure, and she didn't go for the gown that i claimed, but rather a different one of her creations.
She went for a floor length champagne A- symmetric gown, cinched in at the waist! It is one of the strengths of her collection but didn't really carry the wow factor you would expect from someone of her stature.



Carey Mulligan turned up in a very cute Prada dress. Being a petite lady i would of expected a short knee length number, but instead she opted for a longer dress, that was high at the front revealing some calf. I guess the Oscar springs longer length gowns to mind. The Black suited nicely to her skin tone, and her pixie haircut looked great with the larger earrings.



Another personal favourite of mine was Sandra Bullock, who also collected the award for best actress last night. She was in a stunning Marchesa Gown. It was a metallic, strapless, full length number with beautiful detailing on the Top. Accessorised with a small clutch and very simple bracelet she looks flawless.



Rather an Odd ball of a dress but one i find myself loving is offered up by Rachel McAdams. She was pictured wearing Elle Saab, with a weaved bodice and free flowing skirt, it looked truly elegant. The colour is so hard to describe its best you look, but the sheer unusualness draws me to it, it isn't your typical oscar dress.



As usual with the scars comes the worst dressed, a list no one wants to make it onto and for me their is two stand outs that i just hate......

The first being Maggie Gyllenhaal, i dunno what about it i hate, i just know i do. I guess the oriental style isn't really doing it for me, but im sure many of you will like it.



And finally i have my worst dress which comes from Zoe Saldana, i just hate it, looks like some weird purple truffle, with that disgusting colour blocking (that was on trend last year, not this) makes it look like a B&Q colour palette. If i am looking to decorate my bathroom lilac than i'll pull up this photo to hold against my wall. The only good thing about it is the embellishment detail at the top, but nevertheless it looks like she is wearing two dresses and the lilac one was just too short she had to stick something else on underneath! Despite it being Givenchy haute couture im just not warming to it.



As you can see jewellery was at the fore front of this years ceremony, but it was more about the understated fashion statement, about sheer elegance, and little flashing of the flesh!
