The 79th Oscars

Overall I was very happy about the entirety of the show. In my opinion the three shockers that did not win were: Pan's Labyrinth - I didn't see it but everyone was talking about it and it won all these other awards. Listen - the song from beyonce blows me away and I HATE beyonce. She was robbed. I guess I have to remember that everyone is a staunch democrat and they would vote for an inconvenient truth song. And last Edie Murphy - I wonder if he's pissed. Everyone thought it was a sure bet that he was going to win. I'm not that upset that Alan Arkin won, but I do wish that Marky Mark won. But it's alright. The rest of the show was alright, I thought Ellen did a great job and she was really funny.

Alright let's get to the most important thing: The dresses!!







Cate Blanchett is my favorite actress and she looks amazing. I always admire her style and I love what she wears. She's always willing to take a chance and I appreciate that. This dress she is wearing is stunning. The whole thing was a glitter fest!!! Love it!!

These two dresses are my favorite of the night by far.

Penelope Cruz has amazing lines and I love the bottom of the skirt. What a beautiful choice. I love the color and the style. Very, very nice.














These are two lovely British women and they are dressing to kill. Helen Mirren wore a stunning dress. All the tiny detail is amazing. I love how is sparkled. There was a layer of sparkle under the chiffon. Lovely.

Kate looked gorgeous in this color. It is a very simple dress but still modern. Love it.









Mis J. hud not the best choice in dresses. I really do not like the jacket. It just doesn't look right with that dress. I love, L.O.V.E. the pockets in the dress, but she has looked nicer in the past. I loved her dress that she wore when she sang, DAMN DIVA!!! But this was just ok.

Jada - Her hair and make up looked fabu. I like this dress but it's very tight. You have to be super, super thin to pull that off. I liked it very much.







Beauties in blue. Maggie looks amazing in this dress. The color is great on her with her dramatic makeup. I love the black sparkles on the dress that matched the bottom of the dress. She was robbed out of a nomination but she sure showed them!!!

Emily blunt looks great. I love her hair. It's very old school and pretty. I like the dress as well with the bare neck line. Job well done.









Gwenyth I thought looked beautiful!! I love her hair and I really like the simplicity of this dress, even though looking close it's not simple. I really like the color as well.


Reese looked AMAZING!! This dress was everyone's favorite. I can see why. It's not my favorite but it's certainly one of the best. Again her hair looks great, simple makeup, not that much jewelry. If you notice the big trend this year was bracelets. Lots of diamonds in the bracelets. The bottom of this dress is great with the colors fading. Very beautiful.







J. Lo looked really sweet. I love this dress bc the jewelry is already attached. Like Rachel Weisz's dress. When there is jewelry already on the dress is great. The diamonds on J. Lo look hot. Her hair is really nice also. I like the softness of both colors of these dresses. I like the satin look of Rachel's dress. The only criticism I would have is that Rachel doesn't need to wear that necklace, bc there is jewelry on her dress already. But both ladies did a great job.








Nicole Kidman and Naomi Watts are pretty much the same person except for the 10 inches that separates them. Nicole looked amazing. I love the color of this dress and I loved the cut of it. On the edge of the dress there is an almost metallic look and it's different and I like it. Her hair was great as well. (notice the bracelet).

Naomi on the other hand - I liked the color very much and the cut was nice. But the things on her arms? I am not feeling that. But her hair and makeup are very nice. Also the bling around her neck... Nice one!!!







Meh on both these dresses. There could be many things to do to both of them to make them pretty. Kirsten's collar and Cameron's bottom. Kirsten actually found her dress on the internet, she should have tried it on first. The dress is alright, just alright, without that dumb collar. Cameron usually looks like such a mess that this looks was ok for her. Her makeup and jewelry are great so it makes up for her sub par dress.













Do I really need to say anything about these 2 not men? Clive = MAN ALIVE!!!! Love the hands in the pockets, you exude confidence and that's your hottest accessory. I also really like your suit.

James MacAvoy - your hot!!! I love the suit with the slim tie and I like your shoes... mostly I just like you.







The beauties in blue brought there Men in black!! With dresses like that the best accessory is a fine man. Nicely done on both accounts.















Two couples at the after party. I love all 4 of you people!!! You all look so pretty.

re-looking at this pic Gwen looks really very delicate and pretty.

Leo and Kate love each other. I love that they are still really close.




















I really liked this dress. I love the color and I love the simplicity of it. I really like pink and black together. The belt is great and accentuates her great body. I love the back of the dress. It's very sexy without showing too much skin, leaving something to the imagination. She's a beautiful girl and she has a great, if not the greatest, stylist today so I knew she would wear something really great. I might have wanted something with a little sparkle. but I'll get over it bc Cate Blanchett was all sparkle. Her hair and makeup look amazing. Her dress at the Golden Globes was one of my favorite of the year.












<-I do not like red carpet dress. I think she could have done so much better. ->This dress she wore when she sang her powerhouse song, "Listen" and she looked stunning. All the "Dreamgirls" wore red and I wish they would have ALL worn red on the red carpet.










The wrong way and the right way to wear a necklace. Look at that Bling on Adriana Barraza from "Babel". Her dress wasn't great but the necklace was. Meryl Streep's dress was alright, She should have done better being that she was the fashion devil in the movie she was nominated for. Prada could have given her a way better dress.





On other news THANK YOU HONEY FOR GETTING ME THE DAMIEN RICE FOR MY BIRTHDAY!!!! I CAN NOT WAIT TO SEE HIM!!! and Shane!!!

TV in general has been really good lately. The Black Donnelly's premiered last night and it started slow but definitely got more interesting. Worth watching if you haven't seen it, it will be on again on Thursday at 10pm on NBC.
