Oscar Fashion

Oh my goodness! HELLO! I've missed you all and this little piece of the blog world. 

And what better reason to rejoin than to chat about the Oscars?!?

I've seen a list or two of what others deemed "Best Dressed," but I have my own take on it... here it goes:

Simple and classic: Jennifer Aniston in Valentino

Business in front/party in back {in a GOOD way}: Jennifer Garner in Gucci


Beautifully beaded: Sandra Bullock in Elie Saab

Fabulous and a little bit fluffy: Amy Adams in Oscar de la Renta 

Makes me want to get all dressed up! Looking for more awards round-ups? Check them out here!

Grammy Gorgeousness

So awards season just keeps on coming! And I love it!

The Grammy's are the "anything goes" show when it comes to what the stars wear... some choices are a bit too out there for my taste! But don't let that statement fool you... there were some amazing dresses among the crowd. Like so:

Red HOT Rihanna

Rihanna is always gorgeous and this red Azzedine Alaïa dress is to.die.for! She was the talk of the night for other reasons as well {cough cough Chris Brown}, but her dress stole the show.

Cut-out Kelly

Kelly Osbourne doesn't usually make the cut {pun intended!} for best dressed for me, but this cut out dress by Paule Ka is a winner in my book. 

Solange Knowles Knows COLOR!:

Hello 2013 Pantone Color of the Year EMERALD! Solange Knowles rocks this color!!! I love the simple shape of this dress. It lets the amazing color speak for itself!

Allison Williams of 'Girls' Goes Glam

This Girl showed up in a Kaufman Franco number that was encrusted in black diamonds. Talk about making an entrance! Gorgeous. 

And although these dresses were b-e-a-u-tiful to look at, there were two gentlemen of the evening that caught my eye that I'd rather be looking at...


Gosh! Watching the Grammy's makes me want to go to every upcoming concert possible!

SAG Awards Style

Hiya friends! I made it back from NYC... glad to be back home, but sure do love that city and can't wait for my next trip!!!

Is it just me or is anyone else really enjoying awards season this time around? Last night when I got home I was greeted by the SAG Awards on TV. I think the Globes would still be my first choice of show to attend, but it does look like they have a pretty darn good time at the SAG awards as well!

Dresses were beautiful! My top 3 favorites were:

#1 Jennifer Lawrence in Dior

#2 Nina Dobrev in Elie Saab {LOVE the color!}

#3 Naomi Watts in Marchesa

Golden Globes Glam

HI! I'm back! Better late than never... had a little trouble getting back in the groove today, but what better reason to jump back on the horse than to talk about the beauty that was the Golden Globes last night!

I have to admit, I don't have one clear "Best Dressed" pick in my mind... there were a lot of pretty dresses, but nothing that truly wowed me. Anyone else feel the same?

That said, there were still plenty that caught my eye, and in reviewing some of my favorites, it seems like most colors came in pairs:


RED


Who would have thought Claire Danes would make a name for herself as such as fashionista back in her My So Called Life days? She traded 90's flannel for Versace. HUGE upgrade. She was also a favorite of mine at this past years Emmy Awards. And Jennifer Garner looks amazing, too! Dressed by my idol, Rachel Zoe!!! Love Rachel's eye for texture.


GOLD


I think Connie Britton looks so classy in this Kaufman Franco. Simple and elegant! Now, Kerry Washington definitely doesn't fall into the "simple" category with her dress, nor would I venture to try this look myself, but I think she looks stunning in this Miu Miu number. That dress is not something everyone could pull off, but it looks great on her!


PINK{ish}


Similar color and similar style? Is that a fashion party foul? Oh well... even if it is, I like both of these dresses! Amy Adams looks great in this Marchesa number, although I think it would have been a bit more successful if it were more pink and less of a nude shade. Still a great dress, though! And Hayden Panettiere also rocks the ballerina pink shade, but has the help of a tan in this Roberto Cavalli number. 


CORAL


Can Oscar de la Renta do any wrong? Not in my eyes! Jessica Alba rocked a classic OdlR style, but I just wish she would have chosen a better bag! Jennifer Lawrence also looked fabulous in the hue. Her version by Dior... love the metallic waist detail. Reminds me of a lot of the belts that are out these days. 

So those are a few of my fav dresses, but I can't wrap up this round up without mentioning the best part of the night... 



Tina Fey and Amy Poehler ROCKED IT as hosts of the evening! They were hilarious and made the show so enjoyable to watch! There is already buzz about them coming back for an encore performance for the 2014 Golden Globes! I don't know about you, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed!
