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!

Bafta Beauties

OUR BEST DRESSED on the red carpet tonight at the BAFTA's:


The winner of best dressed is Lupita Nyong'o, this lady has been nailing the RED CARPET looks this award season and today's outfit, a Couture Dior dress in vibrant green did not disappoint!  In fact it has made us even more excited about what she will be wearing at the OSCARS!!!




We also have to mention Fearne Cotton, who was looking super sexy in a William Vintage dress a 1980 Scaasi Gown to present from the red carpet for E!  Fearne you looked smoking HOT!


Lilly Allen also blew us away in Vivienne Westwood, whats not to love the colour is high octane and the fit is just so Vivienne!!!!  Not 100% behind the head gear but if anyone can rock it, the lovely Lilly can!


Also on the red carpet was British You Tube make-up guru Tanya Burr, showing that you do NOT have to be head to toe designer to hit the mark on the RED CARPET.  Tanya's dress is from Coast, we are not sure why Tanya was at the Bafta's but we are sure we will get to find out more on her YOU TUBE channel very soon! 


Then we have to mention the most exciting outfits of the evening….. Being suckers for Jumpsuits and trouser suits,  we LOVED Ruth Wilson's  Antonio Berardi suit.  Lots of people hated this on the red carpet coverage but we think she looks fantastic, comfortable and sexy!



And Ruth was not alone opting for the trouser option… Angelina also wore an Yves Saint Laurent tux!  In fact so did Brad so they were really match match and it looked great.


Now to watch the actual prize giving bit and start our Oscar Outfit predictions!

Oscar Night... the Good the BAD and the UGLY

If I am honest I found this years Oscar dresses a little underwhelming, It infuriates me that on the biggest night in Hollywood and with so many well paid stylists the other side of the pond that some of the Actresses still get it so wrong!

This year I have decided to discuss under 3 categories: Girl crush gorgeousness, When bad hair happens to Great Gowns and Sack the Stylist.  So here goes....

Girl Crush Gorgeousness:

Oh Gwen...
She looks fabulous in this Tom Ford dress and cape combo, the cut of the dress flatters her straight frame and the cape gives the look added glamour.  It may be simple but you have to admit it is very effective and a great matching of celeb to dress!


I am not usually a fan of Angelina, in fact I usually find her fashion Dull.  But this Atelier Versace dress has VA VA voom with its sexy slit and neckline, I also think the heavy velvet of the dress is giving Angelina more curves and making her look remarkably healthy as apposed to her usual emaciated look!  This dress gets my thumbs up.

Stacy Keibler looks like one of the OSCARS in this Marchesa gown, the draping and the fabric are stunning and it fit's her like a glove..  George may not have got an actual Oscar but his girlfriend got my vote for best dressed!


I know that a lot of people have been unsure of Louise Roe's dress choice, but I am in camp LOVE IT!!! This Black Halo dress is hugging her in all the right places and the colour is bang on trend, It would perhaps have worked better on a more mature lady but i pat her on the back for taking the risk.



LOVE LOVE LOVE this Zac Posen dress and blazer combo on Glenn Close...  no more word required!


When Bad Hair happens to Great Gowns:

Star of The Artist, Berenice Bejo was wearing a beautiful Elie Saab dress, but I felt that the dress was let down by her lack of make-up of groomed hair.  The paleness of this dress needed her flame red hair to act as a contrast but as it is this outfit falls into the Blah category! 

Next up was Giuliana Rancic, who spoilt the femininity of this  gorgeous Ton Ward gown  with her severe hairstyle. 


I think Kelly Osbourne is great and she usually gets it right with her dress choice and this Badgley Mischka dress is stunning on her.... BUT her hair I think looks shocking!


So on to the Sack the Stylist category:

Sandra Bullock what were you thinking..  This Marchesa dress makes her hips look big and her bust saggy...  Do I need to say anymore?
Penelope Cruz is usually uber Sexy, but this year I think she put on her mothers Giorgio Armani dress rather than her own...  This dress does not show off her fantastic figure and the colour of it against her skin tone adds to the granny effect!


Last year she was pregnant and looked super stylish and sexy this year she looks... average!  This Christian Dior dress does not excite or flatter and as such is really rather boring to look at!


Shailene Woodley said that she fell in love with this Valentino Haute Couture gown because it was 'simple and she could breath in it', I love her honesty but I think I would rather be in agony and looking hot than wearing this gown...  It makes her boobs look saggy and her waist look lumpy!  Who let her leave the house in this?
