And the Winner is....

It's finally arrived!  The Academy Awards! The Oscars!  I have put together photos of some of the leading ladies of the evening.  I will show three pictures of the ladies; the first being from the SAG Awards; the second from the evening at the Golden Globes, and last but certainly not least, the Oscars.  Then I will vote for my favorite.

Before we go over the dresses, I have a few comments about the ceremonies.  First of all, again the show was waaaaay toooooo long.  I admit it, I fell asleep before the end and had to watch Ben Affleck's heartfelt speech on GMA.
  
The people writing the presenters' speeches and jokes should be fired.  There were way too many awkward moments created as a result of the abominable joke writing.  The dialogue between Paul Rudd and Melissa McCarthy was inexcusable.  If I were them, I would sue the "comedy" writers.

I thought Seth McFarland did a fairly good job as host.  I never realized he was such a handsome, talented guy.  As a matter of a fact, I'm thinking of dumping Clooney for him.  First of all, George is getting too old for me and frankly, I am not loving the facial hair.

Let the festivities begin!








Giuliana Rancic

Sista is happy Guiliana finally cut her hair.  I liked her dress but unless you weigh less than 90 lbs. I don't think it would be flattering.

Winner:  Oscars



Anne Hathaway

I have one word for this dress:  headlights.

Reminds me of Ariel the mermaid.

  1. Wow I agreed with literally just about every one of your observations, except for Helen Hunt, really disliked her whole look it was so blah....blah with a wrinkled dress, not so attractive:) Yes Charlize rocked it...and I agree with everything else you said, including liking Seth and being super impressed with his talents who knew? I dumped George last week, wasn't' feeling the beard and frankly i am over him a little..so hes all yours (if you want him) lol.

    I am putting the finishing touches on my own Oscar post for later tonight or tom morning hope you will swing by and offer your two cents (or 25 cents if you want:) Fun post!

  2. Jessica Chastain reminded me of Jessica Rabbit in the outfit she wore to the Oscars.

  3. This was such a fun recap! I kind of wondered if they put Guliana in that dress last night to make it look like she has some meat on her bones. I wasn't totally floored by any of the dresses last night, but I did like Jennifer Garner's, which proves that going out with wet hair and sweatpants 90% of the time is forgivable if you hit it right when it counts!
