Minnie Driver and Abbie Cornish were among the star-studded guest list at the 2012 Vanity Fair Oscar Party on February 26th and like, mostly everyone else, these two arrived in true award show charismatic style.

Minnie glimmered in a Fall/Winter 2011 ivory gown by Escada with a draping neckline of glittering champagne. Her gleaming minaudière and matching open toe sandals were the ultimate companions for this dress. | continue reading..

Some of today’s hottest stars made their way down the carpet for 2012 Elton John AIDS Foundation’s Oscar Viewing Party back on February 26th in Hollywood wearing some very fabulous dresses. Whether short or maximized, these four ladies were amongst those giving a variety of glam!

Ahna O’Reilly kept it sweet and glamorous on the white carpet wearing a short sleeve black tulle tea-length dress by Randi Rahm with a fun woven metallic print that scatters out as the design travels down. She wore her strawberry red tresses up in a bun and coordinated her accessories by wearing black satin platform “Karin” pumps by Brian Atwood and carrying a gold clutch.

Zhang Ziyi looked amazing in her stunning prussian blue gown with embellished details from the Pre-Fall 2012 collection by Elie Saab. Zhang coordinated her look with diamond jewels and a pair of greige platform sandals — also from Saab. I think I love this Saab look on her even better than the last! | continue reading..

Paz Vega stunned on the white carpet on February 26th when she stepped out for the 20th Annual Elton John AIDS Foundation’s Oscar Viewing Party.

The “Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted” actress let her long dark longs cascade over her shoulder as she struck a pose in the “Kinetic” ivory silk jersey and gazar dress, from the Spring 2012 haute couture collection, by Stéphane Rolland. | continue reading..

More and more Westwood!

Amy Adams was the latest in fans of Vivienne Westwood this month as “The Muppets” actress selected this metallic silver cocktail dress for the Vanity Fair Oscar party.

It was a darn-near flawless fit on the 33-year-old actress!

I liked her rise-and-fall gathered hairstyle, but I wish she had worn a sleeker sandal or pump rather than her cool chunky Giuseppe Zanotti open toe silver platform pumps.

They were not only too heavy for the dress, but they were also too “matchy”.

I could see many brides wanting to snatch up this beautiful embroidered white gown by Roberto Cavalli that “Modern Family” star, Sofia Vergara wore on Sunday night to the 2012 Vanity Fair Oscar party.

The bustier dress hugged her famous curves in the best way and allowed for her to accessorize bold and brightly with stacked diamond cuffs, a matching cocktail ring, and eye-catching large leaf earrings.

She completed her look with a waterfall of long waves and a ombré green and gold tube clutch from Jimmy Choo.

While her co-star Sarah Hyland hit the Oscars red carpet, “Modern Family” actress Julie Bowen spent her evening at the annual Vanity Fair Oscars Party where she donned a bright tangerine dress from Halston.

The halter neck design showed off Julie’s toned shoulders as the gathering at the skirt gave a good view of her matching suede open toe sling back pumps. | continue reading..

Paula Patton loves to show off her toned legs, and Sunday night the 36-year-old actress joined her husband Robin Thicke at the annual Vanity Fair Oscar Party in a super short dress by Naeem Khan.

The “Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol” actress wore the mini, featuring a gold bead-embroidered v-neck bodice with a black ostrich feather skirt, from the Spring 2012 collection by the designer. | continue reading..

Brooklyn Decker got her party on when she hit up Vanity Fair’s Graydon Carter-hosted annual Oscar soirée on Sunday night in her metallic gown from Valentino.

The 24-year-old model-turned-actress showed off the figure that landed her on the cover Sports Illustrated in the thin strapped column dress with a crystal beaded net overlay.

I love the dress on her, but while her hair looks nice, I’d like to see her take a risk and go for an iron straight coif. It would have been so edgy for this dress, but it seems like she was going for a bit more of a girlish look.

She pulled it together with a beaded Jimmy Choo tube clutch and a diamond cuff bracelet.

“Castle” star Stana Katic was back on the carpet on Sunday night!

After rocking a light-colored mini dress on the purple carpet for the Indie Spirit Awards, she opted for a purple gown on the white carpet for Elton John’s annual Oscar Viewing Party held in benefit of the Elton John AIDS Foundation.

The 33-year-old actress showed some leg in a gathered violet satin wide neck gown by Alberta Ferretti. I love the color against her tanned skin, and while I’d still like to see her hair out, I liked the cool braided details in her up-do below!

She completed her look with nude Jimmy Choo pumps, a Swarovski clutch and jewels from Le Vian, Adeler and Amrapali.

It’s been awhile since I’ve seen Anna Paquin, but the “True Blood” actress joined her husband/co-star Stephen Moyer at Elton John’s annual Oscars viewing party on Sunday night in a golden Emilio Pucci look.

The 29-year-old stepped out on the white carpet wearing this long-sleeve black cocktail dress with an all-over gold motif from the Fall/Winter 2012 collection.

I love the dress, but the outfit as a whole really does nothing for me. Individually I like all the pieces — her multicolored drop earrings, the gold minaudière and classic black satin Brian Atwood pumps. All together though? Not so much. I feel like the earrings didn’t go nor did they “pop” with the look.

Anna never really goes wrong though, so it’s okay.
