Hits and Misses of the Oscars 2013

The Oscars 2013’s red carpet was glistening with spectacular gowns adorned with  sequins, beads,embellishments,diamonds which almost made it resemble  a beautiful piece of art on a red canvas , so to speak 😉

Here are some hits Oscars’ 2013 red carpet …..

Jessica Chastain

Best Actress nominee Jessica Chastain did it again with her Armani Prive beaded gown. The nude color of the gown complimented her skin as impeccably as her red lip color. For me it surely is a Super Hit !

Salma Hayek

      

Salma Hayek wore this blue velvet Alexander McQueen dress with baroque detail at the neck.I’m a great fan of the baroque but I’m not really loving this high neck on her. I like what she did with her hair though. On the whole , it’s a  miss 😦

Charlize Theron

First of all, let’s talk about her hair! Very few women can carry off a short hair do and Charlize Theron looks like she owns it. She was wearing a Christian Dior peplum gown with a V- cut detail at the neck and embellished crystals on the peplum detail. I’m sure nobody would disagree with me if I say this is a hit!

Helena Bonham Carter

Honestly, I really don’t get what Helena Bonham Carter is wearing. There is nothing appealing about the layers of black and white. I think she took her character as a witch in Harry Potter rather seriously ! I’m sorry to say , it’s a miss

 Jennifer Lawrence

Jennifer Lawrence looks like a princess with this fairy tale like pale pink ball gown from Dior Haute Couture. Her hair do was classy and her long diamond chain hanging it at the back added a twist to her ensemble. I have one word for this look, Hit!

Jennifer Aniston

I have been a fan of Jen Aniston for like ever. This red Valentino gown she wore looks very flattering on her. I really love her but I’m not really in love with her hair-do. It would have looked great if she tied her hair up in a bun, but who are we kidding, this is Jennifer Aniston we are talking about. She is always a hit!

Zoe Saldana

I can’t help but fall in love with this gorgeous Alexis Mabille Couture gown that Zeo Saldana is wearing. It starts with a very intricate floral detail on the top with a belt at the waist line and as you go down , there is this peek a boo of grey and black transparent layers. She looked hot and yes , it’s a hit!

Anne Hathaway

Ok, Do I love her short hair? Yes

Do I love her gorgeous necklace hanging at the back? Yes.

Do I think there is something terribly off putting about the pointy darts in her Prada dress ? Yes.

Do I think this is a miss? Yes 😦

Jennifer Hudson

Let’s just say Jennifer Hudson’s Roberto Cavalli couture long sleeved blue gown matched her performance at the Oscars 2013. I love everything about her dress, her hair and her makeup ! It’s a hit!

Jennifer Garner

The Oscar winning producer’s wife, Jennifer Garner wore a beautiful Gucci dress in grape color which almost stole my heart and she then turns around , and there it is.. I can’t for the love of God stop picturing a Stegosaurus when I look at this dress.

I am a little ambiguous with this look.. It’s like a hit in the front and miss in the back.

Amy Adams

Amy Adams pulled it off with this beautiful Oscar De La Renta ball gown so effortlessly that it made to my list of hits. It was adorable when she was flaunting her gorgeous Moa earrings when the camera zoomed in on her when her nomination for best supporting actress was announced!

I hope you enjoyed this article ..
