210. 83rd Academy Awards

[appleindecay]

This years Academy Awards were amazing. The show in itself was little surprising and I'm not sure I like the facelift they are trying to give the show, but the movies this year were quite amazing. I hadn't had a year since Lord of The Rings when I was that excited about the show

I'm mostly going to comment on fashion because I'm too tired to think of much else right now, but I agree with your worst dressed (especially Gwyneth Paltrow) . I also agree with most of your best dressed. I loved Helena Bonham Carter's outfit, and I especially love that picture! I think I would have liked Amy Adams's dress, however I agree with the hair comment. The dress is so beautiful and rich in color but it completely washed her out and I think with a deeper red for her hair that wouldn't have happened so much. But what ruined the look for me was the green jewelry. I don't think I would have liked any necklace because of the neckline on the dress. It looked out of place to me. The green and blue didn't match at all, though, and I couldn't get passed that. Natalie Portman had fantastic jewelry! Her dress was pretty and it looked comfortable for a pregnant woman. Her jewelry really made her outfit, though! I loved the tassel earrings, the small bracelets and I actually liked both rings. Well, mostly the ring she wore

Gwyneth Paltrow simply can't dress. She usually is on my worst dressed lists.

Helena Bonham Carter just rocks every outfit in my opinion. :D

I would have liked the necklace if the stone was blue (maybe a lighter shade of blue than the dress), but the green was just off.

Natalie looked gourgeous. I'm in love with her tassle earrings.
Yes, that was a really really cute moment. :D

Go you with your Bingo! :D

I agree with most of your comments on the fashion choices, except for Amy Adams' necklace, which I actually really liked. I felt like it added some element of imperfection or playfulness that made the look a little less severe. I think I would've found it too boring-old-glamour-Hollywood otherwise. Not that there's anything wrong with old Hollywood glamour but I felt the necklace made it a bit more modern. IDK, I get why you don't like it though.

The neckline on Natalie Portman's dress is my favourite neckline. If I ever get married, I want a wedding dress with a neckline like that.

Your icon is brilliant, by the way. Mind if I snag it?

It was fun. :D

I agree that the necklace added some kind of playful/less strict element to the dress, I just don't think that the color matched at all. If the stone would have been blue (for a example an aqua-shade) it would have been gourgeous. But blue and green simply does not go together in my book (we even have a german saying which goes along the lines of: green and blue dress the pig. *lol*).

Yes, Natalie's dress as a whole was gourgeous, and the neckline made it - because the rest was so simple. She looked stunning.

Thank you. The text is not my idea though, it's been floating around the internet. I just slapped the text on a canvas. *lol* No, of course not - snag away! :D
