The 2009 Oscars - Fashion, Inspiration
It’s Oscar night! I am VERY excited to see what the celebs are wearing this year. These people have millions of dollars so they can afford to put on the show of a lifetime with just one dress. So tonight I am blogging live as the Oscars unfold so we can discuss what everyone is wearing and who it’s by. Can’t wait!!
8:05 Pre Show
- Tim Gunn - Looks positively flawless and as handsome as ever. I LOVE this man! <3
- Kate Winslet - Love the black and the detailing. She looks stunning! I am
- Diane Lane - LOVE HER! I actually served her a soda once when I was waiting tables!! Love the basic black, strapless is always good. I miss her hair longer.
- Amy Adams - Beautiful necklace, I like her simple hair - I am liking red on her! The necklace doesn’t flow that easily into the dress, but I get it.
- Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick - LOVEEEEEEEE her dress - so ethereal and beautiful. Having her hair down is a good balance for this, and I like the color. I love the accent of a casual belt around such an elegant dress
- Taraji P Henson - Her figure looks amazing in this! I love the color on her and the diamonds are beautiful. Cute bob, as well!
- Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie - love her green earrings with the black dress. I am loving green right now, so maybe I am biased ;] Angelina looks flawless as usual, though I have yet to see the bottom of her dress. Brad could lose the mustache but otherwise looks great.
>> Tim is talking Valentino right now - this is not a surprise since Valentino produces some of the most timeless and perfect evening gowns I have ever seen.
- Vanessa Hudgens and Zac Efron - I hate Zac’s hair - blech. Her dress is alright - not my favorite. Her hair is beautiful, though
- Robert Downy Jr. - I like his tie as apposed to a bow tie. Looks great!
- Viola Davis - I love gold on her - I would love it more if it was a shade or two lighter, but she looks beautiful. I love the diamond bracelet as opposed to dramatic earrings. Her hair was natural and gorgeous
- Miley Cyrus- Zohair Farad - I hate this dress - UGH. She is young and can go more funky, but this is weird and I don’t like the scales or whatever they are.
- Anne Hathaway - She is gorgeous, as always. Her Armani Prive gown is absolutely stunning and she looks statuesque. I am always impressed by her red carpet choices ;] I have to find out how they got the fabric to look so much like liquid.
- Penelope Cruz - I love this dress! A frothy vintage number - this is to die for! The jewelry is perfect - understated so not to overshadow the dress.
- Marissa Tomei - Her hair is soft, which is nice. It is a very architectural piece by Versace. Architectural is hot right now- very hard dress to construct. The color is okay - matches the theme.
- Seth Rogen - The sleeves on the jacket are too short, Seth! The haircut and clean face look is nice - love the glasses!
8:30 - Show Opener
Hugh Jackman’s tux is great and fits him very well. I need to find out who it is by.
Now that I can see the back of Kate Winslet’s dress, I am liking it even more. The sheer fabric is beautiful!
Did Anne Hathaway pull a wardrobe change? She is on stage performing with Hugh Jackman. I like the concept of the dress but I would have preferred a different color other than gold. Again we are seeing the sheer fabric on this dress.
Oooo - did you guys see Angie’s green ring? I told you - green is hot!! The pop of color with a simple, black dress is amazing!
The Oscars flashback reel is great - look at those dresses! Some things are better off left in the past!
8:45
Goldie Hawn’s dress is definitely her - she goes for these colors often. The bust is almost not there - you need a little more coverage, Goldie!!
Whoopi Goldbergs dress is a little off - I like the sillhouette but the print is a little weird for the Oscars. She is a character, though! ;]
Penelope just won for best actress in a supporting role! Let me tell you - if I had found that dress before her, I would have worn it for my wedding! I just want to feel the frothy skirt and roll all in it! hahah ;]
Tina Fey looks stunning and age appropriate in her gown. I love the lines and the bodice on the dress. Her hair is a good balance for the dress, and the gold is apprpriate for her personality.

Okay fashion lovers - I am leaving you to your own discussions for now. I will probably post later in the show. <33
