THE OSCARS 2010!

I am loving the clothes this year because  there is so much variety; lots of color and a lot of personality. I really loved it, I tried my best to write about some of the most memorable dresses here in my blog. I know that everyone loves this part of the program so here are my views.
I am in  love with Carrey Mulligan. I still have not seen her movie, "An Education," but there is something about this young actress that I find so appealing. I find her so modern and fresh! I love how this entire ensemble is styled!  (Source: http://www.redcarpet-fashionawards.com/)

Her dress is by PRADA and there is something subversive yet sweet about it. The dress is embellished with scissors, knives and forks! I find all that captivating. (Source: http://www.zap2it.com/)

I love the color of the Dior Couture dress on Ms. Charlize Theron. However, those two folded-cabbage roses on her breasts are really distracting! I am reminded of the Japanese robot anime from my youth, APHRODITE, whose breast became missiles to kill her enemies! LOL! (Source: http://www.redcarpet-fashionawards.com/)

I am not so sure why she ended up with this dress. I am sure that there were so many others to choose from! This was a poor choice, but I still love the color. (http://www.zap2it.com/)

This young lady is Gabby Sibide. She is the star of the movie "Precious."  I have read the novel and I am so loving the Oscars this year because of the range of actresses being represented!  This is how we all should do it--embrace our curves and just seek out what looks good on all of us! Marchesa created this stunning dress for her, and all I can say is BRAVO!

Penelope Cruz in a draped, deep bordeaux, silk taffeta dress by Donna Karan. I love the color but I wish it was more cinched at the waist! I am certain Ms. Cruz' waist is smaller than this, NO? (Source: http://www.redcarpet-fashionawards.com/)

Nicole Richie was drowning in this Reem Acra  dress! I mean, if she was taller then perhaps this would work. I also find the dress really aging. C'mon who wants that? (Source: http://www.redcarpet-fashionawards.com/)

Miss Cameron Diaz is having a Dynasty moment! LOL!  If I ever saw anything that really reminded me of the '80s, this would be it! I like the dress though. I think it is really beautiful. I just think that it was styled wrongly. (Source: http://www.redcarpet-fashionawards.com/)

This dress was a real big risk, for me! I really like the color on top of the dress, however, I think the tones get a bit too drastic at the hem. Overall, I think this one did not work for Ms. Zoe Saldana. I was really hoping it would but there something off about it. (Source: http://www.zap2it.com/)

I love this dress on Ms. Sarah-Jessica Parker. She has always been a style star! I like that it had an unusual neckline and a brand new silhouette. (Source: http://www.redcarpet-fashionawards.com/)

I love the color of this dress! Ms. Sandra Bullock already looks like a winner! I hear she works out everyday. I mean this fits her so well! It is also very age appropriate, which I think is important. (Source: http://www.redcarpet-fashionawards.com/)

Leave it to Jennifer Lopez to make an entrance! I love the dress but I can't help think that the dress is wearing her instead of the other way around. It is beautifully designed and well crafted. I just think that it's a bit O.A.! LOL! (Source: http://www.redcarpet-fashionawards.com/)

This is Elizabeth Banks, I really do not know who she is but I like the color of her gown. I think it was done by Atelier Versace.  She looks great in the color. Perhaps its just me, as I am having a ruffle moment. LOL! (Source: http://www.zap2it.com/)

Miss Sigourney Weaver is almost 6 feet tall and really knows her body! This Lanvin dress is a classic that really suited her.  (Source: http://www.redcarpet-fashionawards.com/)

Tina Fey wore a Michael Kors gown to the Oscars. I did not like her hair for this dress. It looks unkempt and old.   Although the dress looks OK on her, I find it's not a good thing. In fact, I  find it a tad boring. (http://www.redcarpet-fashionawards.com/http://www.redcarpet-fashionawards.com/)

I am really loving this ruffle trend this season! Demi Moore looks lovely in this soft petal peach chiffon Atelier Versace number. I like the textures and her hair and makeup is exquisite! NICE ONE! (Source: http://www.redcarpet-fashionawards.com/)

This Chanel Couture gown, for me, was the least of my favorites! It really did nothing for Ms. Diane Kruger! I mean, she is a beautiful woman but the proportions are all wrong and it was just unflattering. This is really disappointing because she usually looks amazing!

Ooh! Every year there is a princess fantasy dress on the red carpet and this year the honor goes to Ms. Amanda Seyfried. I actually like this dress better on her than on the model of the Armani Prive fashion show. (Source: http://www.redcarpet-fashionawards.com/)

I think the layered cuffs are pretty cool and it gives a modern touch to the ensemble. This gown would look amazing on a debutante! (Source: http://www.zap2it.com/)

 Meryl Streep looked every inch the Hollywood Royalty that she is!  I see her look as channeling the golden age of Cinema! Strong shoulders and all that. I just wish she did not pose too much. She looked a bit uncomfortable. (Source: http://www.zap2it.com/)

Ms. Vera Farmiga  is wearing  this amazing Marchesa! I love the color! I also love the cascading pleated ruffles! I love the dress but not on her!

This is a modern way to wear a printed gown! This is an Ellie Saab dress worn beautifully by Rachel McAdams. My only comment is that she should have put her hair down. I think it would have made her look 10 years younger. (Source: http://www.zap2it.com/)

OOH! Miss Molly Ringwald! I have not seen her in such a long time! I love the color and the cut of her gown but the 2 "swirly" elements killed it for me! One would have been enough.  I also wish she had cut her hair differently! This one had "VULCAN" (Star Trek) written all over it. LOL!

The Oscars is a sacred event for me! Ever since I can remember I have always camped  out in front of my TV, getting totally engrossed in it. Normally I would call my office and declare  that it was my day off. Sadly, I really had to work today so I could not watch it live. I do not have a TV in my office so I tried to watch it from my computer with out any success. Meaning, I have to catch the replay later, which somehow takes away a lot of the excitement. The great thing about the internet though is that I can see what everyone is wearing virtually seconds after they do their red carpet entrance! I was able to browse the photos via www.redcarpet-fashionawards.com and www.zap2it.com! This year the clothes were really good!

ENJOY!

HUGS!
RAJO!
