SO much Ogling: Oscars 2015

The Oscars are the marathon of couture fashion and so, I have to tell you which ladies I thought really killed it on the Carpet.  See my top picks!

Rosamund Pike in Givenchy

The texture behind the red and that slit are to DIE FOR.  I also love her dainty little red shoe.  She's a vision.  I also like that she didn't choose to wear too much jewelry since I think the dress does a lot of the talking on its own.

Naomi Watts in Armani

Naomi look BOMB.  I love that she picked a more modern looking dress rather than just another strapless gown.   While kind of hard to see in this picture, she was wearing these GIANT earrings that really made this outfit. 

Reese Witherspoon in Tom Ford

The gorgeous simplicity of Tom Ford on Reese Witherspoon is so glamorous.  It creates a beautiful silhouette on her body.  She chose really fun earrings that were like little clusters of stars. This whole look makes Reese look young and refreshing.  

Margot Robbie in Saint Laurent

I can't believe that Margot has ended up on Worst Dressed lists!  It's crazy!  Her dress might be a little less flashy than your average Oscars get-up, but I think she looks modern and sophisticated.  I LOVED her makeup.

There you have it.  MY PICKS!  Hope you enjoyed!

OGLE: The Ossscarrsss, Off the Carpet

Everyone is also so focused on the Red Carpet at the Oscars, but frankly speaking, I think the Red Carpet has been a little boring these past few years.  I mean, you always have some stunners like Charlize Theron or Jennifer Lawrence both in Dior Haute Couture, but I have to say that a lot of my favorite fashions were off the Red Carpet this year.

See my case and points below.

Ginnifer Goodwin.  I LOVE HER.  I pretty much love everything she wears.  Here she is in stunning Monique Lhuillier.  I love her makeup, too.  Her face is so angelic that when darker makeup is done on her, I find the contrast to be something I have to look at.


Rose Byrne is always beautiful.  Her hair and her makeup are so natural looking- I always feel like she has this glow about her.  Some might think that this is boring, but I think the fit to her body is perfect and the blingy, yet simple jewelry brings the attention to her face, which is SO PRETTY!  ::dies::

The lovely, Kate Bosworth.  Her dress by Giambattista Valli is so ethereal.  I love it.  I'm also a HUGE fan of her lip color choice.  The slightly purple hue is perfect!  I think this nude overlay type dress was popular this year with the stars, but I like this short dress keeps it fun.  Of course, this would never fly on the Red Carpet, but at a party, she's totally working it.

Aubrey Plaza in Izmaylova is stunning.  The color against her paler skin is so pretty and soft, but the structure of the dress gives it a little something extra.

Ogled: Oscars 2012, Mes Favorites

I know, I know- there are so many sites out there doing their favorites from the Show last night that I hate to jump on the bandwagon and do it, too, but there were some celebs that just looked so stunning that I had to post them.  HAD TO.

Gwyneth Paltrow in Tom Ford- I liked this better without the cape originally, but after a little thought, I realized that the Oscars are really about dramatics and glamour and without the cape, this would've been just another white dress.  All together, it is quite beautiful and unique.

Kristen Wiig in J.Mendel- I am LOVING the nudies!  After having seen Heidi Klum at the Golden Globes with the nude and turquoise, I've just fallen in love with the look.  I love Kristen's dark hair contrasted with this dress.  It makes it look so much more rich and keeps her from appearing washed out.

Penelope Cruz in Armani Prive- Classic Penelope.  DRAMZ!  I love it.

Rooney Mara in Givenchy Haute Couture- her fair skin and dark hair make her so Lady Mary-ish!  I love her in the white.  It makes her skin appear a little more flush.


There are some celebs whose dresses I loved, but they just don't make my favorites list because they are just WAY too thin.  Without a doubt, Angelina Jolie, Rose Byrne, and Julianna Rancic all need to eat 20 sandwiches a piece.  They were so horrifically thin that everything I saw them, I felt like I was looking at skin over a skeleton and nothing more.  Girls, you need some meat on those bones!  You've lost all the curves that make you womanly.  Think about how beautiful Angie would have been with overflowing bosoms in that Versace dress (ha!  I did say "bosom"- what's it to you?) or Rose if she had a little rump sticking out of the back of that gorgeous Vivienne Westwood gown.  Sigh*  it's such a terrible shame that girls get reduced to that.  Don't forget to eat.  Please.
