Academy Awards 2008 - Favorites


Marion Cotillard won the Oscar for best actress and she also won my pick for the best dressed female of the evening. Her Gaultier Paris Haute Couture mermaid gown was unlike any other on the carpet. She took a risk and looked spectacular. Maybe it's her innate french sense of style but she definitely stood out and is probably one of the few actresses to pull off such a look. Her hair was stunning, her makeup was flawless, the dress went great with her fair complexion. By far my favorite of the night because she took a risk and still looked elegant and glamorous.






Penelope Cruz was my second favorite look of the evening. I love that she is a fellow Spaniard but its undeniable that she looked gorgeous. Her Chanel Haute Couture gown fit her body perfectly and the feather detailing added drama to the dark color. The color choice was fantastic as were her Chopard earrings. Que viva EspaƱa!










Cate Blanchet is always one of my favorites on the red carpet. She has an innate sense of style and knowledge of what looks great on her body. Her Dries Van Noten gown hugs her in all the right places. Have you seen a more stunning woman during pregnancy? I haven't. Many believed her necklace to be a part of her gown but it was in fact separate. Her earrings are a subtle touch as well. You can never expect what Cate will wear but you can expect her to always look amazing.








Javier Bardem was my favorite male of the evening for many reasons. The first, look at how incredibly handsome he looks in a suit. Secondly he won the Oscar for best supporting actor. Thirdly he is from Spain. Just the same he looked great on the red carpet in his Prada suit .
