I haven't posted in little over a month, i know, i know.. bad blogger! Truth is, i felt like i was in a little rut, like i didn't have anything to post, well, nothing worthy anyway.. (do you guys ever get like that!?)
I am however feeling a little more motivated after watching The Oscars last night, nothing like a few fancy gowns to get a girl back into the swing of blogging right?!
I actually enjoy doing the annual Oscar post and i seem to get a lot of good feedback from it, so here's hoping you guys like this years too. If you want to read last years you can by clicking HERE!
Onto this years..
The Oscars for me are about 4 things, Who wore what? Who won what? Who said what? and What were the highlights? This year didn't fail to impress. As soon as we heard Ellen DeGeneres was presenting, i can safely say we all cheered. She did it 7 years ago and did such a fantastic job, that why not have her back for another slot. She has to be one of the best presenters, and all round entertainers, she is hilarious and beautiful and she always shows great courage with everything in her life. So when we heard it was her presenting, you knew you were going to get off to a good start.
Onto the winners, I'm not going to lie and say i wasn't rooting for Leonard DiCaprio (like the majority of the world), because of course i was rooting for him, i wanted him to win, SCREW IT, He should have won.. he should already have one for Pete's sake, but i strongly believe his time WILL come around. I was however, rooting for 12 years a slave and for Lupita Nyong'o and her role in that film too.. so was chuffed when she won. I was also happy The Great Gatsby won for best costume, as the whole look and feel of that film was spot on, and finally i could not be any more happier for Jared Leto winning an Oscar, as i feel the role he took on was an intense one and i was so proud for him.
The speeches that impressed me were Lupita's and Jared's, i love what they spoke about and how they put what they wanted to say into words. :) The highlights, that i suggest everyone go and google or look for were, Jennifer Lawrence falling over on the red carpet, (does that chick ever stay up?!) Ellen ordering pizza and then making everyone cough up money for the pizza into Pharrell's massive hat (yerp, the hat made an appearance again), Pharrell dancing with some stars to his hit song "Happy", Benedict Cumberbatch photo bombing U2 (one of the best photo bombs ever), the opening sequence and finally the most famous selfie to ever grace the net.
After you are done having a look through for all of that, time to go and check out what the celebs wore on the red carpet.
These were all of my favourite gowns, and I'm going to be honest i was expecting more from Julia Roberts, Jennifer Lawrence, Jennifer Garner and Anne Hathaway, but none the less, all these ladies looked beautiful. Can i also point out that some of these photos do NOT do the dresses enough justice, Jada's dress was a beautiful tone that does not get picked up enough here, neither does Sandra's or Jenna's. Also, some of the dresses from the after party made it on to this list and were just as gorgeous as the Red Carpet ones.
My BEST DRESSED award for the night goes to...
