There were no train wrecks last night! I don't mean literally but in case you missed it, last night was the 2013 Academy Awards (Oscars) and everyone looked absolutely amazing. I'm so glad I rushed to Target last minute to pick up an antennae so I could watch the show in it's entirety. This show is always a highlight of my year. It is one of the main reasons I do what I do and I am still giddy with anticipation as all the celebs arrive on the red carpet. Not only will these styles and dresses be the pictures to walk in the salon for prom and all major events over the next year, this show inspires me to keep doing what I'm doing and to do it even better.
Before I get sappy, I am having a very hard time picking my Best Dressed. I could almost (so, so close) say all of them but there were a few short of amazing and a few that I felt the only thing missing was a personality and perhaps a little graciousness (I think Grumpy Cat knows who I am talking about.)
Without further ado, here are my 2013 Academy Awards Best Dressed List:
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner: The color of her Gucci dress was perfect, her necklace took my breath away, and her turning into a "puddle" anytime she was asked about Ben was enough reason for me to fall more in love with them. And he just gets more and more handsome with age. Impeccable!
George Clooney and Stacy Keibler: This Art Deco inspired Naeem Kahn gown and her lovely faux bob just took me somewhere. She always amazes me with her fantastic taste and her extremely handsome man only adds to the look. I love this dress and I'm kinda surprised I did so much.
Jennifer Lawrence: Bringing the brains and the beauty back to being an incredible ingenue. At 22 years ild this girl never messes up and never loses sight of herself. I love, love, love and admire it. And this Dior gown (for which she is the new face of the design house) was absolutely made for her.
Charlize Theron: She nails it every time and this pixie is making me want short hair again. Oh goodness. Dress by Dior.
Amy Adams: This dove gray Oscar de la Renta beauty is the epitome of Oscar. The neutral gray is unexpected on a red/strawberry haired woman but I really love it!
Jessica Chastain: I knew she had it in her! The waves, the dress and the lips. A trifecta of absolute beauty for this Armani adorned beauty.
Naomi Watts: This striking Armani Privé gown looks as though it was made for her and the soft updo was the perfect compliment to what could have been a very severe dress. Bravo Naomi!!
All these photos were swiped from InStyle and there are many, many more beauties, these just happened to be my favorites. Please check out Christoph Waltz and Daniel Day-Lewis along with Ben and George for what I think is the new 'do for men. Tight with a little room to play. Sounds lovely, right?
If this year's Oscars weren't leaving you yearning for a pixie, a romantic middle-part undo, or a gown then I suggest making an eye exam appointment ASAP.
