With that being said, let's just jump right in to the AMAZING, and not so amazing fashion we saw last night at the Oscars. I was presently surprised to see the majority of the stars looking so gorgeous. I'm going to be giving you my picks for best & worst dressed of the night, and while the good were to die for, the bad, were just simply awful.
BEST DRESSED
Women
1. Kate Hudson
Kate Hudson wore Versace and literally made me emotional walking the red carpet. She looked so drop dead gorgeous it should be a crime. I loved every single thing about this look - her hair was perfect, the shall was phenomenal, make-up was to die for, accessorize were done superbly - I just can't even handle how flawless she is. I even want to go as a far as to say that this is one of my favorite, if not my favorite Oscars look EVER. #KateTheGreat
2. Lupita Nyong'o
Lupita Nyong'o wore custom Prada and of course looked like a goddess. This entire award season Lupita has been on point and every single one of her looks have been amazing. She has truly made a huge splash, not only in the film world, but the fashion world as well. Her skin tone is just so gorgeous she could wear any color and look to die for. I loved that she went for a softer look with the Robin's egg blue - it was so flattering and really appropriate because it gave her the opportunity to truly have her Cinderella moment. The accessories were also flawless. The headband was a perfect touch, and surprisingly age appropriate. Once again, Lupita killed it. She can do no wrong.
3. Jennifer Lawrence
Jennifer Lawrence wore Christian Dior haute couture dress, and being the face of the brand, no one was surprised by that. When I saw this I think I almost died. Putting aside the fact that I'm just so obsessed with her as a person, she looked so amazing it didn't even seem real. She wore red to the 2012 Oscars, and a lot of fashion critiques said she shouldn't have repeated but I completely disagree. I think the gowns are so different they can't even be compared. I love the fact she brought back the 'exit necklace' from last year. And her hair was also amazing - all in all, just another fashion win for J-law.
4. Cate Blanchett
Cate Blanchett wore Armani Privé and looked flawless as usual. This woman could wear a trash bag and be voted best dressed. Beading was a big trend on the red carpet this year, but I have to say, Cate is the only one who got it right. From hair and make-up to accessories, she nailed it on all fronts.The nude was the perfect shade and didn't wash her out at all. Every time we see Cate I feel like she looks younger and younger. I have no idea what she's eating or drinking, but whatever it is, I need to get my hands on some. This dress was truly gorgeous and perfect for her to take home the Oscar for best actress in.
5. Charlize Theron
Charlize also wore a Christian Dior haute couture dress. Usually I would not pick someone who wore black to be on my best dressed list for the Oscars, just because it really doesn't pop or stand out - but - seeing this made me want to take back every time I had ever said that. Charlize looked beyond gorgeous. The detailing on the bottom of the gown was amazing, and the nude straps gave it that little oomph. What I love most isn't just the way the dress fit and looked on her, but the way she was accessorized. She completely killed it. LOVE LOVE LOVE
Men
Because the guys just don't get enough love on the red carpet <3

1. Jared Leto
Jared Leto in St. Laurent - words do not even describe how flawless he is. First of all, can we talk about the fact that he is 42?!?! When I heard that last night, I was beyond shocked. He looks like he's barely 30. I am such a huge fan of his fashion sense, and I think he's one of the few men who isn't afraid of taking risks when it comes to what he wears. The cream jacket was a HUGE trend this year and I just absolutely love that he went for it. Not only was his outfit amazing, I was having major hair envy when it comes to his perfectly ombré locks. I love that he went for a crisp red bow tie instead of black and paired it with the handkerchief in his jacket pocket. Absolutely amazing.
2. Chris Hemsworth
2. Chris Hemsworth
Chris Hemsworth wore a David August tux, as is without a doubt one of the biggest hunks in Hollywood. However, he isn't particularly known for his fashion sense. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw how amazing he looked last night. With a face like that its hard to ever look bad, but I really thought the burgundy jacket and vest, made the look unique - something that can be pretty hard to do when wearing a tux. Unfortunately, it seems that his wife doesn't have the same stylist, because she looked a little less that amazing in Elie Saab.
3. Michael B. Jordan
Michael B. Jordan wore a Givenchy tux, paired with AMAZING gold-plated Givenchy shoes. While he hasn't really been in the spot light for that long, I think its so great that he looked so impeccably dressed last night. He was another one of the boys who wasn't afraid to break that traditional black and white tux look and go for something a little more fashion forward and edgy. I loved the shoes, and I especially loved the stars he had pined on the collar of his shirt. Love it all.
4. Matthew McConaughey
Matthew McConaughey was another man who was dressed to the nine. Wearing Dolce & Gabbana he went with the cream jacket trend, and nailed it. Unlike Leto, he kept it a little more classic, which I think was a good choice because he did after all win the Oscar for best actor. With his drop dead gorgeous wife as arm candy, he did it all right. Also, incase you didn't see how much of a MILF his mom is, go goggle what she looked like last night because you will die
Honorable Mention:
Kristen Bell
Kristen looked so cute in Roberto Cavalli and was totally channeling her inner 'Frozen' Princess. Really liked this look <3
P!NK
During her tribute to the Wizard of Oz, P!NK looked amazing. Such an appropriate dress for the occasion. She was like a little ruby slipper - loved it.
WORST DRESSED
1. Whoppi Goldberg
There are no words to even describe this atrocity. I don't know what the issue is that Whoppi has with getting dressed but she really needs to either hire a stylist or fire the one she currently has. With the resources available to her looking like this at the OSCARS is unacceptable. She was definitely trying to go for the look Julia Roberts did at the Golden Globes, but it just wasn't working for her. First of all, that shirt looked like it had yellowed from being so old, and the fit did her no favors. The look was disheveled and unorganized. She was trying to be Julia, Dorothy, and Madonna, all in one outfit and it DID NOT WORK.
2. Giulianna Rancic
This one really saddens me because I usually like the things I see Giulianna in. She decided to wear Paolo Sebastian Couture and looked more like she was auditioning for the adult version of Toddlers&Tiaras rather than going to the Oscars. I think the dress in itself was awful - the tool was was too over powering for a woman of such a small frame, the detailing on top looked ill-fitting, and the color washed her out completely. I also think that her hair and make-up added to my negative feelings towards this look. The tight slicked back bun made her face looked oddly shaped and that awful nude lip made her look sick. Sorry G, better luck next time.
3. Viola Davis
3. Viola Davis
Viola Davis in Escada, was very lack-luster. I thought the color was okay, but the cut was really unflattering. Her shoulders looked even broader that usual, and the folding of the satin over her belly made her look with child. I really hated the hair and the accessories. It looked like she was wearing hand cuffs instead of the diamonds, and I think the Gatsby inspire finger curls aged her. The drop waist was a poor choice in my opinion for a woman of her body type. I think it made her look boxy and disproportional. Overall I was definitely not a fan.
4. Penelope Cruz
Penelope girl, why? She wore Giambattista Valli Couture, and I was really disappointed with this. She looks like she's wearing bed sheets draped around her body. As one of the most beautiful women in the world, it was such a shame she did this to herself. Her body was completely overpowered by the amount of excess fabric on her, and it made her look like she was another star who was expecting. Definitely a poor choice, hopefully next year she makes a comeback. I believe in you P.
5. Liza Menelli
Where do I even start with this hot mess. Liza Menelli followed in Penelope Cruz's footsteps apparently, going for the 'bedroom couture' look. However, she just decided to just wear her silk pajamas to the Oscars. Like really Liza? Really? With the amount of money this woman has, she could have hired someone to make her look amazing. But instead, she looked messy, and it was completely inappropriate for her age. The blue stripe in her had and those earrings, paired with her orthopedic shoes were just so wrong, it pained me to look at her.
6. Pharrell Williams
If there was ever a time to wear tux Pharrell, this was it. The Oscars are not the appropriate event to get creative with your LANVIN tux and go for capris instead. I thought he looked really poorly styled, and his date was just as bad. For someone with such a interesting style, this was very disappointing. He tried to push the envelope too much, and it just wasn't happening. The black tux is a classic look for a reason Pharrell.
