The Oscars: Best Looks

As I'm sure you all know, the Oscars were last weekend and I hope you all got to watch them, as they were amazing. Congrats to everyone on their huge wins!

Now, as a lover and student of fashion, one of the most anticipated parts of any awards show for me is what the stars are wearing. So below are my favourite looks from this year's Oscars.

Whether strapless, short-sleeve or long-sleeve, it seems like this year's theme for women was slim fitted gowns, though some of them had a fuller skirt or train. The gowns had a bit of sparkle to them, in very soft colours, such as silver, nude, off-white, or pale pink, and they looked gorgeous on all who wore them (even Lady Gaga decided to follow the trend, though she still added her own twist).

Cate Blanchett Armani Privé



Jennifer Garner Oscar de la Renta


Sally Hawkins Valentino



Sarah Paulson Elie Saab


Naomi Watts Calvin Klein Collection


Angelina Jolie Elie Saab Haute Couture





Maria Menounos



Jessica Biel Chanel Haute Couture


Lady Gaga Atelier Versace




But it also seems there were some who did not follow this trend, and thank god they didn't, because they could not have looked more beautiful if they tried.

Lupita Nyong'o Prada
Lupita has worn some amazing colours on the red carpet this year so far, but I just absolutely loved this pale blue and the way it looked with her skin tone. Also the shape just complemented her body so perfectly. I think we have a new style setter on our hands!



Kerry Washington Jason Wu
With or without a baby bump, this dress would have been dazzling on her. I especially love the colour!


Olivia Wilde Valentino
Though this look was very simple, it looked absolutely stunning on Olivia. It was paired with the right (and right amount of) accessories.




And of course, the men. All looking so dapper, and kudos to Jared Leto and Matthew McConaughey for standing out amongst all the dark colours!
