Oscar Red Carpet

Well, the red carpet that we've all been waiting for finally came!! The 2011 Oscars came and went, leaving me in a red carpet fashion whirlwind. I didn't actually get to watch the Oscars (which maybe was a good thing, considering all the bad things I heard about it), but you best believe I was all over the gowns on the red carpet.

Mila Kunis was hands down my favorite of the night. I mean in Elie Saab, it's kind of impossible to look bad. This dress was one of my favorites from his Spring couture collection and it looks fabulous on Mila. She styled it perfectly and just looked stunning.

Hilary Swank rocked this beaded/feathered Gucci gown. I LOVED this.

The Best Actress winner looked gorgeous in this purple Rodarte gown. So simple. So fabulous.

Nicole Kidman wore a stunning white Dior haute couture gown and Gweneth wore a sleek, shimmery Calvin Klein gown. I love how effortless Gweneth looks. She is always so simple and clean, but always stunning.

I loved Sandra Bullock's Vera Wang gown. This red looks fabulous on her.

The adorable Hailee Steinfeld looked DARLING in this custom Marchesa princess cocktail gown. I loved the length on her, the color, the silhouette, everything. I think it was perfect for the young starlet.

Halle Berry was dazzling in this golden Marchesa gown.

The ever classy Helen Miren was positively stunning in this Vivienne Westwood gown. I love that she stayed true to her English heritage by wearing Westwood.

This dress was getting a lot of mixed reviews. But I LOVED this dress, along with all the others, in Givenchy's Spring collection and I only loved it more on Kate. Kate is a fashion dare devil. And if anyone could pull this very unique gown off, it's her.

Ann opted for a beautiful vintage Valentino gown (how could you go wrong?) and posed with my fashion idol on the red carpet.

Mandy Moore sparkled in this Monique Lhullier gown. I LOVE this dress. It is sexy and enchanting and alluring and magical. It seriously looks like pixies just sprinkled pixie dust onto her body and it just happened to cover her just so.

Reese Witherspoon was fabulously mod in this Georgio Armani gown.

Michelle Williams, staying true to her vintage roots, wore this beaded column gown by Chanel. I thought it looked great on her, especially with her haircut.

Amy Adams also wore a column dress. I liked this cobalt blue L'Wren Scott gown, but I wasn't amazed by it. I kind of wished Amy would have worn more of a show stopper. But this one was pretty good. Blue always looks fabulous on her.

I am still not sure how I feel about Scarlett's gown...I like the silhouette. The color is...eh. Sometimes I like it, sometimes I want to avert my eyes as quickly as possible. I think the thing I don't like is the print on the fabric. It looks like daisies. Daisies and lace don't mix. Daisies aren't sexy. I think if it was a different pattern, with a different color, this dress could be fabulous.

Now on to the rest of Anne's many looks. This metallic/futuristic Armani Prive couture gown was AWESOME. I loved this dress on the runway and I love it here on Anne. I really want to know what fabric it is because it's seriously insanely cool.

This Valentino gown was stunning. The woven details on the bodice are beautiful.

Anne went modtacular in this 70's inspired Oscar de la Renta gown that I LOVED. All I had to hear was "fringe" and I loved it. It was all over once she shook that beaded fringe around.

This corseted, black Vivienne Westwood gown was a nice contrast to the other dresses.

This Givenchy gown was so classy. I loved all the bodice detailing on it.

This Tom Ford gown was my least favorite, but I still like it. It's very old school Hollywood to me.

Elie Saab Spring Couture

Elie Saab has long been one of my favorite evening wear designers. Remember this dress^^? Yeah, NBD. Just one of the most famous red carpet looks ever. I still remember when I was 9, seeing Halle Berry in this dress and feeling my passion for fashion start pulsing rapidly throughout my body. It really was this dress that made me start getting into fashion, and especially evening wear, more.

With every collection since then, Elie has never let me down. His gowns are enchanting, magical and immaculately constructed. He is a true inspiration for me. His Spring 2011 Couture collection didn't let me down in the least. I've included my favorite pieces from the collection.

He started off with simple nude and flesh tones, including his signature flowers, embroidery and beading.

He used a lot of chiffon and sheer fabric in this collection, which I loved. The neckline on this is so subtle and sexy.

I love the straps on this and the asymmetrical slit.

Can you say goddess dress? No one drapes a goddess dress more fabulously than Elie. Truly magnificent.

This dress was my favorite from the collection. I love everything about it. The color is gorgeous, the neckline with the small hints of lace is beautiful, and the carefully placed lace panels are stunning. It is such a breathtaking dress.

I love me some red.

I love the small peplum on this and the gathered shoulders.

This dress is like tied with my other favorite. The lace/beading detail is mind blowing!! I seriously can't get over it.

Beautiful lace work.

Elie Saab brings new meaning to the plain black evening gown. Seriously, these black dresses are unbelievable. So stunning. The draped arms on this one is one of my favorite styles of sleeves on evening dresses. It's so elegant.

I love the bodice and single shoulder.

This one almost looks fuzzy. I love the texture.

SO sexy. I'm on sexy overload.

This one was the closer. He always does something pretty elaborate like this. I love all the flower detailing.
