2013 Academy Awards - Fashion!

I watched tonight's awards, it wasn't entirely boring, I wasn't appalled by most of the celebs, and I got to hear Barbra sing "The Way We Were." What more could I ask for?

My Favorites
Kerry: Have you all figured out that I'm a big fan of Kerry Washington's style? She always looks beautiful in flattering pieces, bright colors, and always with a hint of something special. The beading on this bodice is eclectic and unexpected, and as usual, I loved her choice!  // Naomi: Oh gosh. She is just beautiful. This is the right way to wear sparkle! The dress fits perfectly, it's a stand-out without being over-the-top, and the one-shoulder neckline is unique and unexpected. Flawless! // Amy: I'm not usually a fan of Amy's choices, because they usually bore me to tears, but there was something special about this dress. The color was simple, but interesting, and I just loved this statement ballgown skirt and ruffled train. Pretty pretty princess. // Charlize: Holy crap. Should we all just give up now? If she can look this off-the-charts gorgeous without hair, what hope is there for the rest of us?! This peplum outfit accentuated her figure in just the right way. She blew me away!

More Good Looks
Kristen: I can't believe I'm saying this, but I love what Kristen Stewart is wearing. The ecru color is really pretty, as is the lace detailing and light ruffles. Her posture is excused tonight since she was on crutches. I can't say the same for her hair.  // Jennifer: She's so dreamy. The cut and fabric were classic, but not boring, and she just looked stunning! (Also, I'm sorry she tripped, but how sweet was it when Hugh Jackman ran up to give her a hand?!) // Stacy: Another person I'm usually less than pleased with, but this dress is gorgeous. Kind of a mix between rocker chains and deco detailing. I'm digging it. (Except maybe eat something, girl...)

Not So Good...
Salma: This looks like she could have played the princess in Coming to America. It's like a weird Princess Jasmine look gone awry... // Zoe: Almost always on my worst-dressed. The extreme bodice detailing? Not great. Add on that weird slit and awkward ombre hem? Worse. The bow? Awful. THE BELT? Complete failure. Yikes. // Amanda: I'm frowning. This is sort of like geisha kimono gone wrong. Boring color and print. Ill-fitting (loose in the bust, too tight in the back). Meh. // Anne: Oh, Anne. I knew I would hate your outfit tonight. I just didn't know I'd have the pleasure of hating it this much. 1990s prom dress without a bra. Why? Why would anyone ever allow her to wear this? Why would she allow herself?! WHY?! I NEED AN EXPLANATION FOR THIS!

Beardage
Chris: This stubble reminds me of the "beard" my Shave-n-Fun Ken Doll used to grow... I'm not sure if that's a compliment or not, but hey, it's Chris Pine. Hard to ruin that face. // George: I've never met a beard I didn't like. Well, almost... To quote Ms. Carrie Bradshaw, "Clooney's like a Chanel suit... he never goes out of style." Amen, sister girl. // P.S. This would have been dedicated to more than beards had I been able to find a photo of Paul Epworth's handsome hairdo tonight. But alas, google failed me...

What do you all think? Do you agree/disagree? Who were your favorites this year? Who did I leave out?

  2. Naomi was definitely my top! Although I didn't watch, I have plans to find a video of Jennifer falling. I love the girl probably because she has similar awkward tendencies to me!

  3. Keri was my top pick- that dress is beautiful! Also loved Jennifer Lawrence and Jessica Chastain. Anne Hathway can GTFO with her nipple dress

  4. I cannot even take Anne Hathaway seriously at all. I was horrified by her dress (and I can't stand her, so this is just further ammo). I love Jennifer Lawrence and Kerry Washington is maybe the most beautiful person I've ever seen.
    Great recap!

  5. Kerry always looks flawless. I wish Charlize's dress were a different color, for some reason the white just doesn't pop on her to me. Anne Hathaway's dress was awful, why do people wear that powder pink color?!?!
