Best of the 2012 Oscars!

The Oscars were on Sunday night and while most of the attendees were predictably boring (Angelina Jolie in black; Rooney Mara in Givenchy) there were a few interesting choices and some overall gorgeous looks.

First up, Octavia Spencer in Tadashi Shoji.  Definitely one of my top 2 for the night.  She looks amazing and the fit of this dress is perfection.  Congratulations to Octavia on her gorgeous look and Best Supporting Actress win!


After Tom Ford complained last week about how no one wants to take a risk on the Oscars red carpet, Gwyneth Paltrow wore a Tom Ford dress with a cape to the ceremony last night.  The cape really elevates what would otherwise be a rather boring white column and Gwyneth pulls it off looking effortlessly chic.


Jennifer Lopez wore a low cut Zuhair Murad with funky arm cutouts.  I think she looks fabulous even despite the controversial nip slip.


Battling it out with Octavia for my favorite look of the night is Michelle Williams in Louis Vuitton.  I don't always love what Michelle wears but I do always look forward to her choices as they usually aren't boring.  Her Oscar choice was a hit for me.  I absolutely love the bold color and the adorable little bow at the waist.


Prints aren't very common on the red carpet so it was nice to see one done well with Natalie Portman's Christian Dior gown.


Busy Phillips wore a rather boring strapless Dolce & Gabbana dress but I absolutely love her earrings.  Accessories can make or break and outfit and I think these gorgeous danglers saved Busy's look from being too boring.


There were also some gorgeous looks at the Vanity Fair Oscar party.  Some of my favorites included Diane Kruger in Calvin Klein, Jennifer Lopez in another Zuhair Murad, Elizabeth Banks in Chadwick Bell and Cameron Diaz in Victoria Beckham.
