Alright! I'm back from the weekend, on an Oscar's high if I do say so myself!
I was super into it this year having seen most of the movies with major nominations, and counted down the days until the big night! But, what's even more interesting than who's going to be named Best what, is of course what are they going to wear??
This year, we saw celebs playing it safe in neutral silver, white, cream, and tans. But it wasn't boring in the least!
I loved Mandy Moore's Monique Lhuillier dress, perfectly sequined! Florence Welch's Valentino Haute Couture stood out as an unusual choice for red carpet wear. Michelle Williams looked chic in Chanel Haute Couture and her signature pixie-cut. Gwyneth Paltrow's silvery Calvin Klein sheath was ultra elegant. And, Halle Berry's Marchesa dress was stunning. Even Best Actor winner Colin Firth's wife was in on the trend!
The next big trend of the evening... red.
Oscar host Anne Hathaway's first look of the evening was a beautiful red Valentino Haute Couture number. Best Actress nominee Jennifer Lawrence looked chic in a simple Calvin Clein Collection dress, and Sandra Bullock wore a stunning red Vera Wang gown. Jennifer Hudson looked gorgeous in red-orange Atelier Versace!
Jewel tones made an appearance as well.
Best Actress winner Natalie Portman wore a sweeping plum Rodarte gown, Scarlett Johansan wore a lacy Dolce & Gabbanna number, and Amy Adams 'shined' in a L'Wrenn Scott sequined beauty. But my favorite jewel-tone dress was that of Marisa Tomei. Her vintage Charles James gown, although a little oddly fit, was still gorgeous!
However, If I had to name someone best dressed of the evening, it would have to be 14 year old Hailee Steinfeld. (although I may be a teensy bit biased.) She looked incredible and sweet in a Marchesa ballerina-length dress, with beautiful nude satin Salvatore Ferragamo heels and clutch. She looked darling and totallly age-appropriate, and she carried herself so well!
But I can't go without mentioning Cate Blanchet's architectural Givenchy gown, which for being so daring, she pulled off flawlessly!
Well, that is the Oscar red carpet run down for 2011!
