What better way to start than Oscars !!

Oscar night, I was tuning in like everyone else in the world watching the pre-shows and ready to dissect the celebrities. But the best part of the Oscars is the morning after, when the critiquing begins…

Here are my picks for the ladies who knew what they were doing and, best of all, dressed to perfection, making the Oscars worth watching.

Mila Kunis You can never gown wrong with Elie Saab. He makes women beautiful. I love the color and combination of lace and chiffon. My favorite part of the gown was the lace scallops on the neckline. Very demure but sexy, because Mila is undeniably that.

Sandra Bullock She has redeemed herself from the Golden Globes’ heavy bang. Her hair was swept back and you could see her face. It was the perfect Vera Wang gown for Sandra. A beautiful shade of red against her pale skin and the architectural cut of the gown – simplicity at its best.

Cate Blanchett One word: Givenchy. Cate has always taken risks, but it looks effortless. She was born to wear high fashions. The pale lavender was romantic, but what I love most was the dash of citron yellow around the neckline.

Hailee Steinfeld I do not say this lightly – I think she will be a fashion icon. She is a rare combination of beauty, poise and style. She has a charming exuberance about her, and she know fashion. The Marchesa dress was like a little girl’s dream princess dress sprinkled with magical fairy dusts. She is definitely living her dream.

Some others worth the mention

Rhea Durham, another risk taker, wore a red, cream and gold gown by Naeem Khan. We loved the flowing red bottom half with a more structured gold adorned top. It was unique and beautiful and easily won our best dressed vote for the evening.


Camila Alves looked incredible in Kaufman Franco. The classic cut and deep neckline of this dress makes it stand out even in black!



Whatever you think of her Academy Award hosting skills, Anne Hathaway was not slacking in the wardrobe change department.

The "Love & Other Drugs" star went through 7 different looks on the Oscars stage last night, showing up in everything from a curve-hugging satin blue gown to a custom Lanvin tux, not to mention the red Valentino she wore for her red carpet entrance.

According to Entertainment Weekly, Hathaway was styled by Rachel Zoe and assistant stylist for the event Jill Lincoln, and so far the reaction has been positive. The Washington Post counted Hathaway as being among their best-dressed of the night, the New York Post thinks she and Zoe nailed it, for the most part, and FabSugar deemed Hathaway's constant switcheroos a "stylish assortment."
