My Best and Worst Dressed of the Oscars 2014

Hey guys, today I'm gonna be doing my best and worst dressed from the Oscars the other night. There was so many amazing dresses that I wasn't able to include them all in my best dressed but I did include some absolutely stunning ones. 

Best Dressed :
Lupita Nyong'o 
Definitely not for the first time this award season, Lupita looked absolutely amazing. She looked like a princess in this gorgeous duck egg blue dress with a stunning plunge neckline. She always knows how to let a dress speak for itself by wearing simple makeup and minimal accessories with it like a simple headband and gorgeous earrings. 

Kate Hudson
This is definitely one of my favourites from the night. Kate Hudson brought it in this stunning white Versace dress. Another plunging neckline but my favourite thing about this dress is the shoulder cape attachment, it really just brings this dress from a gorgeous dress to absolutely spectacular. Love it! 


Naomi Watts
I don't know why I like white dresses so much but Naomi Watts was another favourite of mine from the night. This dress looked better in the video footage I saw than in photographs but you can still see that it is completely breathtaking. I love the shape with the little capped sleeves, the gorgeous detail of it, plus the statement necklace that really ties the whole thing together. She looks flawless. 


Emma Watson
I love this dress on Emma Watson. The contrast between the top and skirt part of the dress is perfect and the colours are perfect on her too. I really, really love the hair and makeup, and also how she accessorized it with a couple of statement rings.  


Jennifer Lawrence
This is my favourite red carpet look from Jennifer Lawrence this award season. The dress is simple yet gorgeous. The colour is amazing. I much prefer her hair like this than the way she wore it to the some of the other award shows this year. Love the accessories too!


Giuliana Rancic
I love Giuliana's flowy princess style Paolo Sebastian gown. The detail on the top half is so gorgeous and sparkly. She looked amazing!! 


Cate Blanchett 
It seems Cate Blanchett can do no wrong this award season as she pulls off another look for the best dressed lists. The dress is stunning, very simple yet detailed at the same time.



Kristen Belle
Light coloured dresses seemed to be a bit of a trend at this years Oscars, didn't they? I love the shape of this dress. I think Kristen Belle wore it perfectly. The hair, the bag and the necklace really bring it all together to make her look really stunning. 

Now, on to the worst dressed.

Worst Dressed: 

Lady Gaga
I don't like this look on Lady Gaga. The dress on its own is actually pretty nice but paired with the scarf thing, the hair and the makeup, something just doesn't work for me. If their was nothing around her neck then I think this could have been quite nice.


  Elsa Pataky  (Chris Hemsworth's Wife )
I just thought that Elsa Pataky's dress looked slightly ridiculous on a pregnant woman. I've said before in another best and worst dressed blog post that I think a really simple dress looks the most gorgeous on someone who is pregnant, but she wore a really sparkly, sheer dress which almost gave the effect that it was see-through. I just didn't like it very much at all.


Pharrell Williams
Last but not least, making my worst dressed list for the second time this award season, is Pharrell Williams. He wore shorts to the Oscars. I liked what he was trying to do and I like that he takes risks but this just reminded me of a little boy in the 1930's. If you took away the bow-tie, it would have basically been something that was worn by children back then.  

So that was my best and worst dressed of the Oscars 2014. I hope you like this post. If you did make sure to give it a like on Bloglovin or a +1 on Google Plus.

Golden Globes 2014: My Best and Worst Dressed

Hey guys! So I watched the Golden Globes last night and I thought that I had to do a blog post of my best and worst dressed of the night. So I'll start with the best looks of the night in no particular order.

Best Dressed

Cate Blanchett















Cate looks so stunning in this black lace Armani PrivĂ© gown. I absolutely love the back of this dress, it's gorgeous. The only thing I don't like about this look if I had to be really picky is the earrings, i'm not mad about them. This is such a statement dress that I probably would have just put some simple studs with it because the dress really doesn't need much accessorizing.


Lupita Nyong'o
This dress is amazing, and so cool. The full length cape takes what would be a gorgeous dress on it's own to a completely different level. I really love how she pared it with such simple makeup and accessories so that everyone's main focus was that amazing dress.



Tina Fey














I loved Tina Fey's first dress during the presenting of the show. I just couldn't help think about how absolutely stunning she looked in this while I was watching it last night. I love the dress, it's very simple with the perfect amount of jeweled detail. So classy!


Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift looked effortlessly gorgeous in this Carolina Herrera dress. I just think the gown is so beautiful, I love the black band at the top and think the redish fuschia colour is gorgeous. The only thing I'm not sure about is the dark red lip with this dress, I think it clashes slightly, but she still looks amazing.



Julia Bowen
I really like Julia Bowen's dress with the red and purple colour blocking and the red clutch bag. I dunno, there is just something that I really like about this, I like the colours, I like the shape, the only thing that i'm not crazy about is the velvety material for the top of the dress and for the belt, I just would have liked the dress a tiny bit more if it was the same material as the skirt part of the dress.



 Kate Beckinsale
I love Kate Beckinsale's silvery metallic Zuhair Murad dress. She looks amazing. This is how you pull off the metallic shiny look without looking trashy.This dress is all class. I love it!



Kerry Washington 
Kerry Washington debuted her baby bump in this stunning Balenciaga maternity dress. It perfectly accentuated her baby bump and she looked gorgeous.



 Sofia Vergara
Sofia Vergara appeared on the red carpet in this stunning black Zac Posen gown. I really like this gown and I love the idea of the statement necklace with it but I think that I would prefer it with a gold or silver necklace, or even white. I don't really like the turquoise blue necklace with it.


Worst Dressed


Paula Patton
I don't think I need to say much about this dress. It is way too busy and I just don't think it worked. I think the picture speaks for itself.



 Julia Roberts
I love Julia Roberts but this look just didn't work for me. Without the shirt underneath this would have been perfect. The only way I think the shirt underneath could have worked is if there was no belt or if it had just a plain white. The sparkly belt and the shirt together just didn't work at all.



 Drew Barrymore
I know that Drew Barrymore is pregnant and that she loves bright and colourful fun clothes but I did not like this dress at all. I think that the best thing for a pregnant woman to wear on the red carpet is something really simple that accentuates their bump like what Kerry Washington wore. This is way too busy. I do like that she paired red peep toes with it though.



 Jennifer Lawrence
I hate that I have to put Jennifer Lawrence on my worst dressed list. She is my favourite actress and I love her, but no matter how I look at it this is not a good dress by Dior. It would have been fine if there was no second band but I have seen the gifs online comparing her to Ariel wearing a sail with rope wrapped around it and now there is no way I can't take it seriously with the second band. Otherwise I love the clutch bag and she still looks amazing, she would look amazing if she was wearing a bin bag.

I hope you liked this post. I'm thinking about doing some more posts like this for some other awards shows like the Oscars so let me know if you would like to see more of them by liking this on bloglovin or giving it a
