I watched the Oscars with friends last night. Our 13 or 14th annual Oscar party get together. We do the ballot filling out thing, the appetizers, party beverages and our own version of a swag bag. We all contribute towards a prize of a bunch of movie gift certificates, a prize I was sure I was going to bring home this year. I mean, I studied for this test for several days. I was prepared. So what if I didn’t see every movie nominated. I researched many of the top movie fan sites and I read all about who the film experts were predicting to win and why so I should have won, right? Those blasted sound mixing/editing/animated short foreign adapted screenplay categories screwed me again! I failed miserably!
So instead of gloating over my hard-earned win, instead I’m gonna give a little rundown on my Oscar 2010 most memorable moments in fashion…
Oh, look, it’s Demi Moore and Jennifer Lopez! Doesn’t Demi look great? According to my husband she was the best looking of the night. In fact, I think his exact words were “pretty good looking for almost 50″. Yeah. You heard right. Maybe not the best choice of words in a room full of  almost 50 yr old women… ya think?

This next design might not be everyone’s cup ‘o tea but I can see myself in it. Or is it just that I can see myself on the arm of Robert Downey Jr?  Hee hee.
Sorry Meryl, I can see where you were going with this but I’ve worn something similar with plastic slip ons at the Spa Utopia.
Everyone (my girlfriends) agreed unilaterally that Sandra Bullock had the best dress of the night.
I’ve looked a at a bunch of other dresses now that the show is over and I keep coming back to this one. It truly is stunning and Sandra’s long dark hair contrasts with the soft shimmery champagne and lace beautifully. It really is a special look. So is the next one.
I don’t know if I love it or hate it. On one hand it reminds me of the crocheted doll that sat on the toilet tank covering a tissue box that my Yugoslavian BFF’s mother had bought at a church bazaar when we were 9 yrs old. On the other hand I like how Zoe Saldana from Avatar appears relaxed and happy~ like she really loves it and she’s having such a blast at the Oscars ~ and she looks like she feels gorgeous and pretty and special.  She doesn’t look like she cares what any of us think and that makes her look even better. A smile is the best accessory, isn’t it? I’ll leave you with one last ‘what was she thinking!?’ outfit.

Oh Charlize!!!! It’s like you tried on Madonna’s cone bra and walked into a wall before hitting the red carpet! You’re such an attractive girl but all I see is your squished boobies! Oh well, there’s always next year…
