And the winner is...


Like many other women, 
the most entertaining and anticipated part of award shows for me is the red carpet
 and the styles that the stars choose to wear. 
While I wish I was more blown away by both the looks and the Oscar show itself, 
there were definitely some fashion winners 
(and lackluster losers) 
from last night’s Academy Awards. 
Special shout outs to Charlize, Kerry and Naomi, 
three looks that I absoultely loved.


While everyone can’t be the absolute best dressed of the night, 
homage still needs to be paid to those who didn’t disappoint, 
those who strutted stylishly down the carpet
rocking new shapes, bright, fun colors
or the perfect amount of ruffle.



But Oscar wasn’t the only one sporting shining starlets; 
the after parties were where some really sparkled, 
where Jennifer and Amanda wore much better looks than earlier in the evening,
and ladies like Amy and Miranda absolutely shined.
I would have loved to see some more of this on the red carpet,
more risks, glamour, and subtle sexiness.


Who were your fashion favorites?

Scandalously Fabulous

Tonight as I watch the SAG Awards, 
I’m immersed in the fashion on the red carpet. 

I am actually interested in who wins what award, 
but the real reason I watch is the pre-show, 
the celebs strutting down that famous carpet, 
wondering who will wear what, 
who will shine, 
who will disappoint.

And while I know in the next couple days, 
there will be many best looks, worst looks posts and coverage 
(I may even indulge), 
I’m aching to pay homage to a certain celeb 
that has been absolutely rocking it lately: 
Kerry Washington. 

Ok, so disclaimer: 
I am an avid 'Scandal' fan. 

But I really believe it’s hard to deny 
that her fashion choices, 
her taste, her look, is beyond ordinary. 
It’s been spot on, pretty darn close to perfection. 

I look forward to seeing what she wears, 
on and off the red carpet, 
in and out of character as Olivia Pope.
And tonight she didn’t disappoint either.

Her style is one I admire, one I aspire to emulate. 
She is classy, sexy, sparkly, chic 
and just so fabulous.

Here are some favorite looks of lately:
This evening at the SAG Awards: regal and classy.

The print on this dress is actually of a horse, which is a style I’m not usually drawn to,
but I LOVE this whole look: dress, hair, makeup. My favorite.

Sheer loveliness. 

Sparkle done absolutely perfectly.

A classic combo: black lace, subtly sexy.
