OPULENCE.

i was totally in love with the amount of WHITE we saw on the red carpet last night -- i was hoping for more pastels {um, kind of obsessing over pinks/yellows right now} but nonetheless it was a great show. my ultimate favorite had to be jessica chastain though -- so perfect. {and the MAYJOR jewels she had on just sealed the deal right up}....big love for all my red heads :) hope everyone had a wonderful OSCAR-day!! x

ACADEMYAWARDS2011

natalie portman in rodarte - marisa tomei in charles james circa 1950 - amy adams in l'wren scott

i am totally into these deep purple-y jewel tones that go so wonderfully well with these stars' porcelain skin.  loving the baby-bump disguise and the vintage which is so IN right now...not super impressed by amy's jewelry/hair choice but take those away and the dress is fab!

mila kunis in elie saab - hilary swank in gucci - cate blanchet in givenchy

liking this lilac color that i generally think looks hideous...it's all about the hair and make-up for these to work. i give mila one of the best dressed of the night - totally loving the difference from other recent red carpets. hilary looks stunning as always and this picture totally doesn't show how gorgeous cate looked.

anne hathaway in archival valentino - scarlett johansson in dolce & gabbana - sandra bullock in l'wren scott

newly devoted to RED dresses. must get one to wear asap. anne and sandra looked absolutely regal and scarlett (i know, not really red RED...) looked dashing in the purpley/red hue she wore! love love!!

mandy moore in monique l'huilier - florence welch in valentino - michelle williams in chanel

by far my favorite red carpet color scheme...maybe because i am loving the naked look these days but mostly because this color flatters EVERYONE. totally will be investing in some nude pieces for the spring.  best goes to mandy (surprising because i can still picture her "candy" music vid...) but i am also loving the way florence went...

enjoy! xx
