Oscars Recap

Now you know I could not let the day get by without an Oscars recap. The ABC Red Carpet Live show with host and Good Morning America co-anchor Robin Roberts was good. I learned this morning that Robin's gown was designed by Marc Bouwer. His designs 'M by Marc Bouwer' can be found on QVC.

All the ladies looked wonderful and a few favorites stood out like Emma Stone and Michelle Williams who wore red. Viola Davis looked fantastic in a green Vera Wang gown. Viola has been rocking a natural hairdo instead of the wigs she is known for wearing. The winner for the Best Supporting Actress Octavia Spencer had me in tears during her acceptance speech and her gown was beautiful.

The men all looked dapper in their tuxedos. I read a tweet from GQ magazine complimenting the guys on the red carpet. It seems the guys might have it easy when selecting what to wear to award shows. But they too need to have a good fit and proper neck wear to pull the whole look together.

OK, Jennifer Lopez never disappoints and her dress last night was revealing with the plunging neckline. Also,  Angelina Jolie's slit in her dress showing lots of leg generated buzz. I couldn't take my eyes off the bright red lipstick Angelina wore on her lips. That's a color I never could pull off. Let me add that her arms were super skinny and I think she really needs to add a bit more weight to her frame.

The black and white silent movie "The Artist" came out a winner with five Oscars. Jean Dujardin, the French actor who won Best Actor for the movie has the sexiest French accent. That's a wrap!

  1. The guys that won the award for the short animated show, I can't remember the title...just drew a blank, they are from Shreveport LA, just a few miles from us. They have been celebrating non-stop up there! Thanks for the recap. Have a lovely evening! Hugs
