favorites from the 2011 oscars

i don't really watch a lot of awards shows - actually i don't watch any awards shows, except the oscars.  mostly because i don't really pay attention to when any other awards shows are.  so if anyone was wondering why i hadn't done a awards show post before, there ya go. 

i wasn't able to watch any of the red carpet pre-show stuff as i was out hunting street art, but i did catch the entire show which was hosted by james franco and anne hathaway.  anne had 8 different outfit changes so, it seems to me that the best part of hosting the oscars means to get to wear 8 different outfits in a few hours!  totally solves the problem of not being able to decide which dress to wear - just wear them all!  my favorite hostess dresses:

anne hathaway in armani prive

anne hathaway in versace & james franco in gucci

 favorites from the red carpet:

haliee steinfeld in marchesa - supporting actress nominee for true grit.   such a cutie!

marisa tomei in lily et cie 1950 charles james couture - award presenter.  love that she wore vintage, and so different from all the other dresses.

michelle williams in chanel and harry winston diamonds - best actress nominee for blue valentine.  she just looks gorgeous.  her hair goes perfect with the dress!

natalie portman in rodarte and tiffany's earrings - best actress winner for black swan.  looks amazing, great color, and shes preggers! 
and that's about it.  i think i dis-liked more looks than i liked.  scarlett johansson and melissa leo tie for the worst dressed - they both just looked like they were wearing doilies!  oh and kathryn bigelow - she just looked waaaaaay too casual.  its the oscars, not dinner with your friends!  come on!
