Best Fashion Moments from the Oscars

There were many this year at the Academy Awards who stole the red carpet. These actors and actresses looked stunning and knew what they needed to wear to impress. These are my top favorite...


Jennifer Hudson looked stunning in Versace. I loved the colour for her.


Mila Kunis from Black Swan, wears a Elie Saab Haute Couture chiffon dress. She looks so elegant
Michelle Willams had a simple look and still looked beautiful. She wore classic Chanel.

Wearing Marchesa, Halle Berry looks very sexy.

Anne Hathaway looked amazing in this red Valentino dress.
 
Here is a video to take a better look at the looks from the show!

Create A Look

I love flipping through fashion magazines and seeing the looks created. I'm always interested in the pieces they chose to put together to make the perfect outfit. I dream of one day, being the one putting models in these unique outfits, for Vogue or Elle. As for now, I have found the perfect site to play with. Dressing girls in actual pieces sold in stores. It's pretty addicting and a lot of fun!

What Girl Wouldn't Want a Tutu?

The film Black Swan had the most amazing fashion throughout. The costumes were done by Rodarte and a women named Amy Westcott. Every piece shows more of the character.
Rodarte's Sketches of the Black Swan and the Demon.


 White Swan
During this movie the main character Nina, is a pretty and soft young lady who represents the White Swan. She wears lots of pink and white, but soon she turns to the Black Swan. She becomes dark and angry wearing black. The costumes show how Nina changes as a person. 

  Black Swan
If you want to create the same looks from Black Swan, all you have to do is remember a few things:
  • wear feather garments
  • show off lace pieces
  • silks are good fabrics
  • black and white are the colours
  • leggings and tights
  • anything ballet related (ballet shoes, tutus)
Check out Eva Chen's 2011 Collection http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmYpB_i6xx4

Remember to go see Black Swan. It holds wonderful reviews and both Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis plays their roles beautifully. The New York Ballet Company also does fantastic and the dances will move you.

Women Who Lived in Style

Marilyn Monroe is known for her fashion, blonde hair, and beautiful curves. A popular actress from the 50's.


Bettie Page is my favorite pin up girl from the 50's.

A very well known model from the 60's named Twiggy, had a cute, unique style.
 Audrey Hepburn. She was a classic beauty from the 50's and a well liked actress still today.

Pin Up girls from the 50's will always catch my interest. Very sexy and confident, these ladies will always be the Women who lived in style! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CoKJEPsa9JQ
