The Big O

Confession, I never actually watched the Oscars this year :( but somehow I always manage to find a reason to weep like a baby at any clip shown on the TV. This year I cried as Kathryn Bigelow received her Best Director award and shed a tear for the "oh so lovely I want to be her best friend" Sandra Bullock for no reason other than happiness for them both, I'm such a baby.

Now that the awards and parties have passed and of course the weepy news clips have stopped I've trawled through all the dress photos, good and bad and here are my favourite four.



Kate Bosworth in Valentino, I love this colour so beautiful on her. quite bold compared to all the muted pastel shades that most people were wearing but she totally pulls it off and her hair looks stunning.



Anna Kendrick in Elie Saab, again the colour is just so beautiful, delicate and feminine. I love the ruffles in this dress too, so pretty.



Rachel McAdams in Elie Saab, Oooooh this print! and the heart shaped bodice so so so pretty.



And finally Miley Cyrus in Jenny Packham (more famous for her wedding dresses)I'm probably old enough to be her mother but wow she looks so amazing in this dress, I love the whole underwear as outerwear look and she pulls it off without looking too "done"

Beautiful ladies x

Oscar Bravo

Happy Sunday, it's a beautiful sunny day here and boo hoo I'm sick. I've been inside all weekend, watching films and thanks to a couple of my friends directing me to streaming websites watched all the episodes of Glee : )

Luckily for me to keep my mind occupied it's the Oscars tonight, a little later than normal I think? The best thing for me about the Oscars are all the beautiful dresses (or dress disasters!) When I was in my teens I was totally in love with Gwyneth Paltrows dress when she won the Best Actress gong for Shakespeare in Love, shame it was overshadowed by her speech!



Very jealous wish I wish i could be back in sunny LA getting distracted by movie stars.




Anyway back to the sick bed I trot, I have more films to watch and sleep to catch up on...
