Oh, awards season, I love you so! We don’t watch any sports in our house, but for me, awards season is my eagerly anticipated sporting event and the Oscars is the superbowl, playoff, whatever you want to call it- the ULTIMATE! I usually blog about the red carpets at all the awards shows, but this year I’ve been off my game a little. That said, I had to bring you my faves from the Oscars red carpet.

My number one pick is Michelle Williams in Louis Vuitton. That color, that little peplum, that delicate bow broach. Absolute perfection! It’s adorable without being too precious or young looking. At first glance I thought it was red, but it’s definitely a coral shade, and is just stunning!

Kristen Wiig looks beautiful in J. Mendel. Some of the red carpet commentators said she looked a bit too casual, but I love her look. Her hair looks natural and pretty and the dress is so ethereal and fits her perfectly. The color is not one I would ever choose for myself, but on her it looks awesome! Emma Stone was another of my top ladies on the carpet. I am a big fan of her in general and was excited to see what she chose to wear. The dress does look quite similar to one Nicole Kidman wore a few years back but honestly, I much prefer Emma’s Giambattista Valli gown. It’s a bit “floatier” for lack of a better word, and really suits her.

Next is Rooney Mara in Givenchy. The white looks gorgeous against her pale skin and I like that the dress is structured, but not TOO structured. I generally like flowy gowns better and this dress has the best of both worlds. She styled it perfectly with simple pulled back hair and bright red lips. Dita Von Teese was another fave I couldn’t help but include. She wasn’t on the Oscars red carpet, but at Elton John’s Oscar viewing party. Her gown was by Jenny Packham, who I always love. The jeweled neckline and cap sleeves are so beautiful against the blush pink fabric. This one is an absolute stunner!

Last but certainly not least is Kelly Osbourne. Her Badgley Mischka gown is lovely, and right up my alley. I do tend to go for black a lot, but the green sequin detailing make this dress really special. It has a bit of a mermaid scale look, but with some bit of edge. I love it and it’s so flattering on her figure. The final thing I just had to throw in is Jessica Chastain’s hair and makeup. Both were done so well, and I thought they were very bridal appropriate. Sweet, natural, and beautiful. I can see lots of brides sporting the same look.

What were your favorite looks of the night? Any of the same ones I picked?
