Oscar Night Looks- Hits and Misses

Tonight was the night- the stars strutted their stuff on the red carpet, and here are some looks that shined:

Reese Witherspoon Oscar dress

Always classy Reese

Natalie Portman Oscar dress

Pregnant and elegant Natalie Portman

Penelope Cruz Oscar dress

Penelope just had a baby!

Always feminine and lovely

And some that just….didn’t. Actually, I don’t know what they were thinking:

Cate Blanchett Oscar dress

Pretty woman, mediocre dress

Scarlett Johansen Oscar dress

Scarlett usually cleans up better than this

Sharon Stone Oscars

Um, why? Almost had it.

Helena Bonham Carter Oscar disaster

Always a disaster. Always. But I guess making it on the worst dressed list is still making a list.

    Natalie Portman looks beautiful. I didn’t watch the Academy Awards – but I always love looking at the Red Carpet flops 🙂 Makes me feel better about myself LOL!

  • All I have to say is I totally agree with you. I don’t watch the Oscars cause they are boring but the red carpet event is the most exciting part.

  • Penelope

    I don’t watch them either. The critics have awful taste, and I rarely like their choices. I also find the interviews boring beforehand. I only like to watch for the clothes and hair.

    Hi!
    I watched a lot of the pre-show stuff, too — they had great ideas on how to put on fake eyelashes, and fashion shows from underwear to bikinis to dresses, even for little tykes.

    I thought Halee had the best gown! She designed it and had Marchesa create it for her! Amazing! From far, it looked like a strapless gown, but up close, you could see a sheer beaded fabric come up and cover her shoulder. Just darling.

    There was another actress who had a long version, quite similar to Halee’s, but I don’t remember who right now.

    mwah

  • One of my favorite nights of the year, just to watch the red carpet and see of the the hits and misses! I love that plum color on Natalie Portman, gorgeous!

  • I LOVED Natalie Portman, and I also really liked Jennifer Hudson!

  • Penelope

    I loved Jennifer Hudson’s look too, she get more and more beautiful all the time.

  • I didn’t watch the Oscars last night, but I did check the Red Carpet photos first thing this morning. (lol)

    Agree completely with your hits and misses. . . but I also liked Halle Berry’s

  • Lee

    OMG seriously Cate was the worst. I kept calling her dress a puppet show theater, I was waiting for a puppet show to pop out of her boobs. And Cruella DeVille/Sharon Stone, what was she thinking?

    I didn’t understand the yellow beading on the shoulders of Kate’s dress. Helen’s style confuses me.

  • Sam

    I missed the Red Carpet show 🙁 Natalie Portman really does look beautiful.
