oscars recap
Hi! What did you all think of Sunday night's academy awards? Overall I thought the show was great- Ellen was hilarious...
And the fashion was on point! As my mom noticed, there weren't any bad dresses. Which is why this recap is kinda hard. But here are our favorites...
Camila Alves in Gabriela Cadena: Look at that color! I love the cut of this dress and I love the shoulder / cape piece. So demure in the front and the back dips down into a gorgeous V- showing just enough skin (of course no one seemed to get a picture of that!).
Julia Roberts, Givenchy: Okay, so the critics didn't love this, but the combination of black and lace (love the peek-a-boo lace in the front) is sweet, not too harsh, just right. I'm not a huge fan of peplum, but this works, and again, her hair helps soften the entire look.
Kerry Washington, Jason Wu: Most perfect pregnant lady in the universe. Only she could wear what is essentially a toga and make it work. The slit in the leg is just the right height, and her hair and that ox blood lip color pull everything together. What is the dress color, dusty mauve? Whatever it is, I think she's the only human who could pull it off.
Cate Blanchett, Giorgio Armani: This dress made me so happy! I heard the critics on the red carpet say they loved that she was wearing this light beige color with her skin tone, and I rejoiced inside. Pale on pale is in! My favorite part of the dress are the gorgeous, subtle tulle cap sleeves. She's a knock-out.
Lupita Nyong'o, Prada: I love this picture. Isn't she flawless? What a dress for her first (of many!) Oscar win. The pleats, the full skirt, the deep V in the front, the beading at the bottom, the headband! Perfection. Chick has worn every color in the rainbow this awards season and each one has you staring at her saying, "She looks amazing in that color!"
What do you think? Do our favorites jive with yours?
