I have to admit, this year, the fashion KILLED IT. I loved pretty much EVERYTHING. Hair and makeup was more restrained than usual but I thought it was perfection.
There were some pretty stand out trends as far as fashion went. Green dresses, light pinks, long sleeves and understated gowns were seen across the board. It was just a stunning stunning night of fashion.
I've attached and linked some sites so you can view all the gorgeousness but the following are 2 of my favorites of the night. They are similar in silhouette, length, styling and hair and makeup. While Anne Hathaway shows up in my blog often, this is the first time i've chosen Angelina. I like that she took a departure from her usual black because this emerald green shade looks beyond stunning on her. And Anne just do it so perfectly and so subtly sexy (the dress has a low back!). A few honorable mentions are also : January Jones's red Valentino, Natalie Portman's light pink with red flowers, Victor and Rolf, and Michelle William's flower child Valentino that suited her so perfectly.
My 2 least favorite of the night were Helena Bonham Carter and Julianne Moore. Both are risk takers when it comes to fashion. Helena does quirky, crazy fashion like the best of them and while I personally have no issues with quirky fashion, I wish she was a bit more put together. Julianne surprised me a bit. She usually looks so stunning and makes the best dressed lists all the time. Her fuschia pink dress was a beautiful shade though ill-fitting and overpowered her. Im sure she will rock it out at the Oscars though. Till then mes amis!
