fashion faves and flops at the oscars.

as i am sure you are aware, sunday night was a pretty big night for hollywood... personally, i only really cared about watching the oscars to see the fashion choices of the evening {since i have yet to see even half of the movies}.

i did however see silver linings playbook, and loved it... i was very impressed with bradley cooper and think that the movie brought his acting to a whole new level... and i am a huge jennifer lawrence fan... but i wasn't crazy about her dress choice.

i thought her hair and make up looked great. and i liked the classic style of her dress, but the whole overall look was a little too "sweet" for me, i would have liked to see her in a more bold color.
 
now, let's move on to some of my favorites... 

charlize theron.

the dress was simple and elegant... i love the bold lines and cut on her. and really... who can deny that she is rocking that short hair and still looking ultra feminine?

she looked gorgeous and classy... i feel like she always does a phenomenal job picking out fashionable, figure flattering dresses.

i thought her dress was perfectly age appropriate and absolutely gorgeous on her. and i love that she changed to sneakers for the after party ;)
 
 
and my vote for best dressed of the evening goes to.... 
naomi watts.

this gown was a real stand out... i love the sparkle and the unexpected lines of the dress paired with the soft updo. she just looks gorgeous!

and now.... let's move on to the looks that i think totally flopped on the red carpet... 

selma hayek.

i gotta admit, i was glad she finally chose something that wasn't bearing ridiculous cleavage... but i hated the velvet, high neckline and bun with a tiara.

nicole kidman.

i think the dress was too harsh for her... i hate the little swirls at the bottom and the fact that her hair was in her face.

and the worst dressed of the evening goes to... 

anne hathaway.

do i really need to explain this one? between the awkward placed darts, chunky necklace and high neckline with the short hair... it just looks like a 90's prom dress to me. 

she said she decided about 3 hours before the show which dress to wear... and i think we all could agree that her last minute decision did not pay off.

so what do you think? 
who top's your best and worst dressed lists?

  1. I am still so confused by Anne Hathaway's dress choice. ?????? I did LOVE her performance dress, though. Did you see that one.

  2. Love Sally Field and Jennifer Lawrenece!! Really Anne? Really.... and Nicole Kidman needs a fashion citation, she should probably fire her stylist haha.

  3. I agree...Anne Hathaway was my LEAST favorite. It was such a "blah" dress.

    My favorites: Stacy Kiebler, Naomi Watts, Jessica Chastain, and Jennifer Lawrence.

  4. Hi Lori!
    I hated Anne Hathaway's dress too!!! I did love the one she wore when the whole cast of Les Mis performed though.

    I just finished the last half of the show today, and I loved Jennifer Lawrence's dress. I thought it was so feminine and pretty on her. I was happy for her, she did great in that movie too. And I agree, Bradley Cooper really gave a tandout performance too.

  5. Ok! I LOVED Sally Field (so age-appropriate), Naomi Watts and Jessica Chastain. But Anne Hathaway. OMG. AWFUL!
