Best Dressed

I look forward to the Oscars every year and have done since I was small. The glamour and glitz transports me to another world where, as a little girl, I used to dream of being part of it. Now as an adult I still love the sheer escapism. And the endless commenting on what they are wearing still entertains me no end! This years Oscars were fairly tame I thought, some pretty dresses but nothing amazingly striking. There were quite a few red gowns in a nod to what's in store for Autumn/Winter '11 and then cool berry tones, blues, nudes and white were the order of the day. I loved Mina Kunis in the beautiful lavender Elie Saab above...

Natalie Portman in Rodarte (who else!)

Amy Adams in L'Wren Scott...

Cate Blanchett proved the most daring in her Givenchy couture gown with sculptured shoulders and bright yellow beading...

Hailee Steinfeld designed her ballerina style dress with Marchesa. I don't like the shoes or hairband, but she's got the dress right!

Michelle Wiliams wore Chanel, therefore I love....

This Armani Prive dress looked great on Celine Dion and she's showing off her post-twins body to perfection. As usual, I like the more covered up styles. Hurrah for less cleavage and more sleeves!
