best dressed, hands down...



so in my new house, i have no foxtel, sad, it was either get the internet or foxtel, no brainer, the internet prevailed. not the point, my parents do have foxtel, so i went home this morning to watch the oscars red carpet live on e! overall, i was kind of underwhelmed. everyone looked good, but no-one really blew me away. jennifer lawrences' body was banging in her calvin klein. mila kunis looked beautiful in her lavender elie saab gown, but i think that was part of the problem with everyone, everyone looked great, but there were no real surprises. i guess in all essence the oscars red carpet is not the place to be shocking. but sometimes the viewer needs a little jolt to keep interested. anyway, rambling again. my jolt came when i saw cate blanchett wearing givenchy spring 2011 couture. my jaw dropped and i sat upright in my seat. she looked stunning, completely unfussy, minimal jewellery [by van cleef & arpels], fresh, dewy skin and un-styled hair, yet she blew everyone else out of the water. she just has this regal presence, which is probably her best asset on the red carpet. the dress was stunning enough as it is, but with cate inside, it just came to life...

just a little side-note. isn't it funny that the best dressed women at last years and this years oscars both wore lavender coloured spring couture givenchy. ricardo tisci definitely has a way about him.
