Post Oscar monday

Did you watch them?
What did you think?

Personally, I thought they were a little boring and the fashion was a little disappointing.  Especially my girl Sandra Bullock.
But it was still fun and I enjoyed all the lovely ladies and handsome gentlemen.
I wore this great little wrap dress on Saturday to a baby shower.  I can't tell you the last time I went to a baby shower.
It was fun to see what all of the "new" gadgets and trends were.
I wore turquoise accessories to offset all of the lovely purple.
The gray tights and shoes tricks yours eyes into making my legs look longer than they are. 
 I needed this since my dress was a bit longer than I wanted.
My dress isn't quite Oscar worthy,
 but here are a few dresses that I thought were 
Oscar worthy last night...
I know technically Louise was just a red carpet correspondent,
 but I really liked her dress.

What did you think of the telecast?
Who were some of your favorite dressed attendees?

What a pretty dress! I really like the turquoise accessories you chose. It's definitely something I wouldn't have done, probably just would have been boring and gone with plain gold.

I was disappointed with the Oscars, too... I felt like two movies won all the awards and I was surprised (and not really in a good way) with a lot of the dresses. I liked GP in Tom Ford with the cape. Without the cape it was pretty boring.

I loved Michelle Williams's Oscar dress. She always looks great.

Of all the things I liked all those trapeze artists and the acrobats :-)

I love wrap dresses, so I really love this one on you! The purple paired with the gray is a great color combo.

I didn't watch the Oscars. They are usually pretty boring and I haven't watched probably one movie anyway. I did check out the red carpet fashion though on People. I liked Michelle William's dress. Heather

I honestly never watch award shows and will only catch the best and worst the next day via recap. I did like Giuliana Rancic's gown!

I must admit that I never watch the Oscars- instead I rely on bloggers like you to fill me in :) Out of your 4 pics, I love Emma Stone's the best- the colour is divine! Speaking of divine colour, I love your dress and the accessories, very chic!

I didn't watch but am loving your wrap dress. I love that you added the turquoise accessories. So spill... how do you maintain your figure? xoxo

I didn't watch either...
Your dress is very pretty! Purple used to be my favorite color when I was young..now it's black. :)
My favorite dress out of the four would have to be Louise Roe's.
Have a good one!

I watched every dozing moment. I didn't understand the Cirque de Solai thing. WTH?

And Angelina? Sit down girl, you look exhausted.

Michelle Williams - lovely!

And you dear Brett, this outfit is very very lovely.
