I’m so disappointed that I fell asleep on the sofa before The Oscars ended last night. On my defense though the show started at 11 PM our time so by 12:30 I had already passed out. I don’t know what I regret the most; enjoying Ellen DeGeneres’s hilarious jokes or watching Matthew Mcconaughey being called for best actor. Last night’s red carpet was full of beautifully dressed actresses although nothing extraordinary. My favorite best dressed, and I think the rest of the world, was Lupita Nyong’o who was wearing a gorgeous custom baby blue Prada dress. I had no idea Lupita was born in Mexico to Kenyan parents. She is always beautifully dressed, no wonder she has quickly become a style icon.
Charlize Theron was beautiful as always in a black dress, by Dior Haute Couture.
I think the color chosen for Cate Blanchett’s Armani Prive dress was too close to her own skin tone, but nevertheless was beautiful and very appropriate for the night.
I loved Jennifer Lawrence peplum red dress by Dior Haute Couture.
I think Amy Adams was simply elegant in this navy blue Gucci premier gown.
Angelina Jolie wore an Elie Saab Haute Couture

I never miss the Oscars, I'm up at 2 a.m. to watch the show, it's my favourite night of the year, although I've never considered the Academy a barometer of quality. But this time, at least in the actors and actresses categories, they got it right! Matthew, Cate, Jared and Lupita were my choices and I was so happy to see them win. It felt so good to see the best actors of the year rightfully win the Oscar. My favourite Red Carpet look was undoubtedly Lupita in Prada, but I also liked Charlize, Cate and Naomi Watts.
