Hi Bunnies!

Today is the ultimate fashion recap, and also the last one of the awards show season! Insert sad face here. The Oscars or the Academy Awards (Why do they have two names again? That is so confusing!) are when all of the stars bring out the big guns. This is THE awards show of the season and nobody wants to be on the worst dressed list. This is also the awards show where all of the big designers beg the stars to wear their gowns. Also why I will never understand when a starlet wears a bad dress. I mean you had so many options! Anyways, I digress.. let's get to the pictures!

HITS


Jennifer Lawrence in Dior Haute Couture
Hands down just perfect, everything about it. The top was fitted so perfectly to her tiny body that the parachute like bottom didn't seem overwhelming. The perfect balance. Can I have this as my wedding dress please? I loved her hair up and I was obsessed with the jewels, especially the delicate necklace that she wore to the back. I've said it once, and I'll say it again.. I want to be her. Homegirl is 22 and has two nominations and one win in the bag. She is going to have an amazing career. Plus she's awesome!


Naomi Watts in Armani Prive
This is one of those dresses that really should not work, yet it's perfection. All of that sparkle and all of that detail could easily have been too much and she looks like a stunning sparkly princess. There is not one single thing I would change about this, even the styling is perfect. The dress wows and she keeps her hair, makeup, and jewels simple. This is probably my favorite look from the entire season. You go Naomi Coco!


Charlize Theron in Dior Haute Couture
If you're going to go on an awards show hiatus, THIS IS HOW YOU MAKE A COMEBACK! She pulled off a trend that nobody has done well on the red carpet so far, and that's a peplum.. it gave the perfect pop to this white column dress. She also pulls the pixie cut off about 100 times better than Anne Hathaway ever could. I do wish she would have added a little color either with the jewels or a handbag. Otherwise, job well done girl!


Jennifer Garner in Gucci
Had you asked me if I would like to see a tail on the red carpet this year, I would have said hail to the no, obvi. But on Jen Garner, a tail works wonders. I love the color, and the fit is so perfect that the party in the back adds the perfect touch. Obsessed with the necklace too! I will say that the color coordinating peep toes hanging out the bottom make me cringe, but I'm sure it's hard to walk in a dress like that so I'll zip it.


Stacy Kiebler in Naeem Kahn
All hail George Clooney's longest standing cocktail waitress girlfriend! I kid of course, but I think we are all surprised she's stuck around this long. Back to the dress.. I am obsessed. I love everything about this from the color, to the pattern, to the belt. I also love that she stuck to the flapper influence with her hair, yet somehow didn't look too costumey. My lover Brad Goreski knocked this look out of the park!


Amy Adams in Oscar de la Renta
Another glamorous train and another stunning look. I love this look and she looks like she's floating on a pretty grey cloud. Have we ever seen Amy Adams look bad? She is an example of how having a great stylist is such a blessing for celebrities! Love her slightly messy updo as well.. it's the perfect compliment to this dress!


Sandra Bullock in Elie Saab
Oh hey Sandy girl! Missed you. Her and Reese Witherspoon are my homegirls. Love them to death. I adore this Elie Saab dress and honestly he does no wrong in my eyes but I'm obsessed with this look. At first I didn't love the hair, but it grew on me and it's so straight and chic that it really balances out the femininity of the gown. I really hate that handbag (Why is there a chain but you're not using it?)but we'll just let that slide. Sandy is the queen, duh!

I just realized that every look I picked was in the white/grey/black color family with the exception of Jennifer Garner. I guess that goes to show that you don't always need alot of color to make a big statement on the red carpet!

MISSES


Anne Hathaway in Prada
Nothing about this look works, NOTHING. That dress is 90's prom in the front and just all around weird in the back. The color does nothing for her, and we all know that the seams up top accentuate what you don't want accentuated on the red carpet. Okay I'll say it, we are all staring at her nips. Also, she rubs me the wrong way and does not seem genuine in the least. PS. This is why you don't reject the custom made dress and go with something else three house before the show. Dumb.


Jennifer Aniston in Valentino
There is nothing truly bad about this look, but I'm bored of Jennifer Aniston's thing. Change it up girl! She is always wearing a poofy ball gown and she's always wearing her hair down. It works for her but we also want to see something more, something different! Also, I wonder if she only agreed to present because Brad and Ang weren't making an appearance? She does look very happy though and that's great!


Zoe Saldana in Alexis Mabille
This a classic issue of too many trends and not enough dresses. Separately all of the elements are good, but together it's sort of a mess. If the top was a simple sweetheart neckline.. I would have loved the pop of ombre train at the bottom. Almost as if I want to cut the dress in half? She also looks sort of down and tired. Probably all of that back and forth with BCoop. Love is exhausting sister!


Nicole Kidman in L'Wren Scott
Oh honey no. There is just too much going on here! Sparkly black sequins have a way of creeping up on you and looking like trash bags and oil spills and they are definitely doing that here. Throw in the gold sequins and this totally reminds me of one of my grandma's jackets from Chicos. Her pale complexion looks so much better in color. She may have been going for something out of the box, but it just didn't work.


Halle Berry in Versace
Everything I loved about Stacy Keibler's dress, I hate on Halle Berry's. This is too futuristic robot for me and even though we all know she has a banging body, the dress would make you think she has a little pooch. That's never a good thing. If I picture it sleeveless with a black skirt I actually kind of love it but alas I am not the designer and I give this look two thumbs down. Better luck next season Halle!


Salma Hayek in Alexander McQueen
Velvet, gold applique, and a tiara on a petite little lady? A recipe for disaster. Too me this is Kate Hudson's flawless look from the Golden Globes gone wrong. Her figure looks amazing, but this reminds me of something very old and does not feel modern at all. Let's just admit it, she should always being showing off her curves and her tatas.. it works for her!


Brandi Glanville in her own design
This one is pretty self explanatory, but I have one question.. how in the world did Brandi of all people manage to get invited to the Oscars and walk the red carpet? I mean seriously, who did she sleep with?

MARCHESA
Somehow, Marchesa managed to get nearly completely skipped this awards season and I don't know why. I hope they come back with a vengeance because I miss their pretty gowns on the big stars!


Olivia Munn
Right off the runway and my heart skips a beat. I love everything about this dress because it's classic Marchesa and it's gorgeous!


Georgina Chapman
I know everyone said that Jenna Dewan had the perfect baby bump look, and I think she looked amazing.. but Georgina Chapman takes the cake for me. She is always flawless.


Fan Bingbing
I have no clue who this girl is but she sort of ruined a perfectly amazing Marchesa gown. The styling is bad and her shoes are too tall. This makes me a little sad to be honest.

As far as the show, I thought it had it's funny moments but it was way too long! I did however manage to live tweet the whole show and not land myself in Twitter jail. Some of my favorite moments..

Sandra Bullock had a hard time opening the envelope..


Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper are so totally in love we should just ignore the 16 year age gap.. that's no big.


Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck are the ultimate Hollywood couple. So adorably in love I can't handle it!
