Best of The Best... Red Carpet Watch

WOW.....
Oscars night was an amazing celebration of not only amazing films last night....  But also some fab fashion and as always I want to share with you my top looks of the evening and there are some SURPRISE ONES!!!!

In my no1 spot is Bette Middler in Reem Acra.  She looks super sexy and this dress with the cap sleeve and cinched in waist show of her curves beautifully!

The next 3 mentions are rather controversial!  But I think the Guys slightly outshone the girls last night and deserve a mention..

Jared Leto rocked the red carpet in Saint Laurent

Matthew Mconaughey did the same idea with a white Tux jacket from Dolce and Gabbanna

Then Kevin Spacey showed that living in London has really improved his fashion stakes wearing this amazing midnight Blue tux from Burberry!

Other outfits of note were:

Lupita Ntongo in this powder blue dress by Prada...  a surprising choice for the Queen of vibrant colour block, but still stunning!

Then the lady's who rocked NUDE...

Kate Blanchett in Armani Prive

Kate Hudson in Atelier Versace (more white than nude but she looked hot.. so had to mention her)

Also want to mention Portia de Rossi, she has been off my red carpet radar for a while but this Laser cut nude number by Naeem Khan was the perfect mix of feminine and edgy!

Best Dressed at The Golden Globes 2014

Last Night was the first night of the BIG Award Ceremony Season. The Golden Globes red carpet was an array of gorgeous gowns to make us all swoon and wish that we were Superstars living in Hollywood!

Even though very few of us will ever need to wear gowns that cost the same as a studio apartment in Mayfair, it is nice to take a look and a bit of inspiration anyway!

Below are some pictures of the best dresses on the carpet and why I like them:

My first mention is Lena Dunham, in this Zac Posen dress..  I am a massive fan of yellow on the Red Carpet as it packs such a punch and I LOVE the fact that this dress embraces her CURVES!!!!  The only thing I would have changed would be the neckline to something similar to this Zac Pre fall dress...

I also thought that Julia Roberts looked phenomenal in this Dolce & Gabbana dress...  This is a style trick we could all use to turn around an old strapless dress and the shirt makes it feel very black tie!  I would have added in a more statement accessory but still think she looks chic!

Next up our very own Emma Watson looked very demure from the front in this RED Dior dress but it was at the back that the dress had its wow!! I love it when a young start takes a fashion risk (and not one where they are basically just naked)

Last but not least I have to mention another British star...  Helen Mirren who always nails the red carpet and last night was no different in this striking mint green Jenny Packham number with her fab new cropped hair!  This woman ouses style!

Other dresses that need mentioning are the ones that are great Body shape dress examples:

Perfect hourglass dress - Highlights the symmetrical curves beautifully

 Dress by Max Azria Atelier

This is great for a pair shape as the shoulders work really well at balancing the bottom and hips.

Dress by Marchesa

The perfect dress for Strawberry and Rhubarb girls:

Dress by Dolce & Gabbana

Great for our apple shapes is this dress with a column of draped fabric to disguise that tummy area:

Dress by Thakoon
