The Oscars this year were filled with white hot looks, reds & deep blues to blacks. While some chose to look like the Oscar statue themselves, most played it safe. I did fall in love with Gwyneth's cape though & I felt Michelle Williams stepped out of her comfort zone a bit. Sequins were in abundance as were strapless gowns to long sleeves. Jessica Chastain wowed me in McQueen with amazing hair and makeup to match. As for the not-so-great, 4/6 of the Bridesmaids did not pull off their looks. I love Shailene's Valentino dress, but it aged her way too much. Here's to next year's awards season!
