Red Carpet: The Oscars 2009

Yippee! I’m still beaming with excitement from this year’s Oscars! The fabulous gowns, fresh winners and gosh, Hugh Jackman *swoons* Slumdog Millionaire deserves every award the film received – because I honestly think it’s the best film this year. Some people call it’s a crowd-pleaser, and some think it’s overrated. I think the film rocks – and yes, Danny Boyle finally got the recognition he deserved. Let’s focus our attention to the Oscars red carpet trend and best dressed: We see alot of beautiful fishtails (yes, we’re talking volumes!), belts (that’s new!) and of course seeing red, red, red! I’m very pleased with most of the red carpet moments – I think this has to be one of the best Oscars to date:

My pick for Best Dressed for the night. Kate Winslet stunned the world with this dramatic one-shouldered, silky, and multi-textured Yves Saint Laurent gown and shoes. A clear winner, don’t you think?

Penelope Cruz became the first Spanish Oscar winner. Congrats! She turned heads with this 60-year old voluminous ivory sweetheart vintage Balmain dress with lace detailing.

She may not be an Oscar winner, but Marisa Tomei hit the high notes with this silver-hued mermaid gown with an insane train by Versace.

In my humble opinion, Anne Hathaway is the modern Audrey Hepburn. Her modern-classic beauty sparkled in this sparkling, slender Armani Privé gown. It’s so beautiful, I can’t breathe.

Natalie Portman sweetened up this Grecian-inspired, orchid pink Rodarte gown.

Evan Rachel Wood made her way into the Best Dressed list in this soft champagne Elie Saab gown.

Angelina Jolie is one classy mama in this black Elie Saab gown with striking emerald earrings.

I’m in love with this girl. Freida Pinto rocked her Oscars debut in this sapphire, one-sleeve gown by John Galliano with Indian-inspired detailing. Love, love it.

Sarah Jessica Parker is not leaving her Carrie Bradshaw “tulle” behind! She wore this “barely mint” gown by Christian Dior Couture – such a ethereal, whimsical pick!

As one of the beauties in red, Amy Adams stood out in this strapless red Carolina Herrera gown and a colorful jeweled bib necklace by Fred Leighton.

Jennifer Aniston looked gorgeous in this shiny Valentino gown. Pretty!

Finally, congratulation to all the winners of this year’s Oscars!

Red Carpet: Independent Spirit Awards 2009

YES! It’s Oscars time. While the beautiful people are walking the red carpet, let me present to you the best-dressed at the Independent Spirit Awards last Saturday. It’s a slightly more low-key than your usual award shows but I love seeing what indie and also accomplished actors and actresses wear. Think casual chic, but right on-trend. I wish I can watch the Oscars now *pouts*

OMG. Rachel Weisz is unbelievably chic in this slouchy blue trench and floral dress.

Cameron Diaz is the Princess of red carpet. Nobody stands out like she does!

Lucy Liu is sweet as cupcake in this pink Lanvin dress.

I think Michelle Monaghan is so adorable. She looks so cute in this blue shift dress.

Rose Byrne goes simple chic in this white Calvin Klein dress with metallic silver pumps.

Anne Hathaway is simply classy in this light yellow dress.

I love love love this stripe color block dress that Michelle Williams is wearing.

James Franco is yummy as chocolate. Now, who is that chick?

I never leave Zooey Deschanel out from any red carpet event.

Now, vote for Slumdog Millionaire for Best Picture!!!

Red Carpet: 2009 Golden Globe Awards

It’s the 2009 Golden Globe Awards! I haven’t seen Slumdog Millionaire (yes, lucky american and aussie friends have been raving about the film to me) but I’ve been a big Danny Boyle fan since Trainspotting. The trailer kicks alot of ass, and I’m sure I’ll love the film. I’m happy that Danny Boyle is finally getting the recognition that he deserves. Four GG awards! Next, the Oscars. Back to style spotting, let’s check who dazzled the red carpet at this year’s Golden Globe:

Stunning! Eva Mendes nailed this Dior white gown with turquoise accessories.

Double-winner tonight, Kate Winslet goes black in this strapless YSL gown.

Anne Hathaway sparkled in this navy Armani Prive gown.

Love, love Kate Beckinsale in this strapless, mermaid-style J. Mendel gown.

Interesting layers. Mary-Louise Parker in a sexy blue Carlos Miele gown.

Angeline Jolie looks angelic in this silver beaded gown by Versace.

Eva Longoria turns heads in this red Reem Acra frock with a scalloped bust detail.

Bride Wars: Not One, But Two Bridezillas

Ladies, don’t you love the occasional chick flick? It’s my secret indulgence although I hate to admit it. This not going to get an Oscar nod but it should being alot of laughs and fun. Bride Wars (starring Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway) tells the story about two best friends turned bridezillas who fight for their perfect wedding. I can’t wait to see bridal fashion. No wedding bells for me, but I like being nosy and you know, plan ahead. There should be great ideas from Bride Wars‘ costume designer Karen Patch who created the looks behind the characters. I’m sure Bride Wars will be nice and fluffy.

Liv (Kate Hudsun) in Marchesa. Emma (Anne Hathaway) in J. Crew.

Ooh, sweetheart dress. Custom-made by Vera Wang.

This is for the romantics. Who else, but Vera Wang.

Liv in Burberry trench. Love the green Vera Wang trench.

Emma in Hugo Boss jacket. Liv in Dolce & Gabbana.

Play this cute Bride Wars game! Punched out your competition. Highly addictive!

Bride Wars opens in Singapore on 29 Jan 2009.

Trendspotting: How to be Hollywood Royalty

Double Strand Pearls

If pearls are good enough for Carrie Bradshaw, they’re good enough for me. It seems like celebs are lovin’ pearls and the trick is to layer them with multiple strands while pairing with the classic black dress. Of course, double is what Ashlee Simpson, Sarah Jessica Parker and Gwyneth Paltrow are doing.

Bright Jackets

There is nothing more show-stopping than loud, bright colours! I love Rihanna‘s spunky hot pink jacket. Even Katherine Heigl and Kim Kardashian are sporting bright jackets with dark denim. Smart!

Leather Mini Skirts

Bring back the 80s staple! I used to be vegan, so I’m against the usage of real leather. You can opt for latex or faux leather like Nicky HIlton. Selita Ebanks and Ashley Olsen are pairing their minis wiht monotones and fierce shoes!

Short Suits

Show off your long legs by coordinating your black blazers with shorts like Anne Hathaway, Rihanna and Natalie Portman. I love how Rihanna paired it with a black sheer top and bright orange heels! Otherwise, you can add a little colour like Natalie with a Maroon tee.

Shimmery Beige Dress

Don’t be afraid to shine amongst the crowd. Neutral with a little sparkle can be very alluring and sexy. Take the cue from Claire Danes, Mila Kunis and Heidi Klum.
