Oscars!

Hey everyone. I hope you enjoyed the Oscars! Who cares who won...let's talk FASHION!

Black seemed to be the trend this year. This may be because black is known to be slimming and none of the stars wanted to be on the cover of any magazine or the front page of the newspaper with a headline stating something about them gaining weight. But probably not. Black is also very elegant and classy, characteristics deemed appropriate for the Oscars.

My favorite was Taraji Henson in a white Roberto Cavalli gown. It was absolutely flattering on her body and had a very soft and elegant feel to it! I loved how the white contrasted with her dark skin tone. The flow of the dress was beautiful and I feel it was a perfect fit.

My worsed dressed was Beyonce. WOW! I normally feel Beyonce always looks stunning in anything she throws on, but this was a disaster. She looked like she was wearing a mix from a traditional Chinese Kimono robe and something a Matador may wear while fighting a bull, turned into a dress. Designers are probably dying to have Beyonce wear one of his or her gowns, so why this one?

All-in-all, I enjoyed the gowns of the Oscars this year! I felt most stars were on the best dressed side of the spectrum than on the worst dressed side.
