I didn't notice any huge trends but here are some women who chose to wear beigish/creamish colors. From left to right: Helen Mirren wore Christian Lacroix and while I liked the dress I thought it made her look kind of matronly, especially compared to the Golden Globes. Jennifer Lopez chose the Greek Goddess look again with Marchesa. Gwyneth Paltrow is wearing Zac Posen. At first I didn't like the dress but after looking at it for a bit it's growing on me.



There were also some women who chose very light colors. Kate Winslet is wearing this light green Valentino dress. I think she looks okay, the dress is a little plain and the color isn't very flattering on her. She's looked better. Beyonce is wearing Armani Prive. I don't like her that much and even though the dress is nice I just don't think it looks that great on her, I think it's just my bias against her.


Bold colors still make a statement. As much as I don't really like Jessica Biel (she went to the same college as me and I don't think she's a very good actress) her Oscar de la Renta dress was approrpiately young and fun but still classy. Although I think she should have worn a bra or something. I thought Nicole Kidman looked absolutely stunning in Balenciaga. The red is gorgeous and matches perfectly with her blond hair and skin tone. For someone who is so fair that can be difficult. Naomi Watts in Escada looked good too, although I think the yellow doesn't quite match perfectly with her skin tone. Apparently the rep for Escada said how they designed the dress around her pregnancy even though she hasn't announced it herself yet, oops!! She's probably not so happy about that. Reese Witherspoon in Nina Ricci looks simple and elegant, even though her hair is the same as the Golden Globes.



I think feathers are tough to pull off and very fashion forward. Penelope Cruz in Atelier Versace, Maggie Gyllenhaal in Prouenza Schouler and Kirsten Dunst in Chanel Couture all went with feathers. I'm not a huge fan of feathers so with every one of these dresses at first I didn't love them but after seeing a few pictures I've decided they're not bad.



I really liked Cameran Diaz's Valentino dress. I think it's kinda cool and I really like how the white contrasts with her darker hair and the 2.9 million dollars worth of Cartier jewelry she's wearing including ncluding a 9-carat cabochon emerald and 65-carat diamond earrings. That's a lot of money on jewels, but those earrings are gorgeous.


My best dressed this year goes to Cate Blanchett in Giorgio Armani Prive and Rachel Weisz in Vera Wang. Both their hair, make-up and outfits look fantastic. I think Cate's dress is beautiful and very outstanding while still being classy. Really sparkly dresses are hard to pull off (see Beyonce, Golden Globes) but she does it well.


I love how silky and gorgeous Rachel's dress is. The train also has really cool detailing on it. I'm surprised how nice that necklace and pin look on a strapless dress, that might look like overkill on someone less elegant.


Now time for my worst dressed. I thought Kelly Preston's Dolce and Gabbana dress was kind of overkill. I know leopard print is in and all but it is a lot and looks a little too young for her. It's also not very flattering on her great figure. Anne Hathaway's Valentino dress looks like a grandma's doiley with a big bow on top.
Eva Green is so beautiful and a great actress (she looks fantastic in Casino Royale my new fav movie) but at events she always looks terrible. The Oscars were no exception. That dress is just ugly, and so is her hair.



I thought the show itself was kinda boring, I miss Jon Stewart as the host. I was kind of annoyed when the announcer that The Deaprted was based on the JAPANESE film Infernal Affairs (one of my top 10 favorite movies of all time, that is from Hong Kong in CHINA), oh well.
