Oscar Fashion Favorites! 2012

Jessica Chastain in Alexander McQueen made a bold choice. Although black is always understated, the gold detailing on her dress was beautiful as were her flowing tresses and jewelry. Very unique and my favorite look of the night!
I loved Penelope Cruz's custom made Armani Prive dress. The fabric flowed and draped in such a flattering way on her voluptuous figure. I also thought her hair was very cute. The color was beautiful on her and I appreciated her understated  look; it hearkens back to the classic beauties of old Hollywood. We all know Cruz has great assets, it was nice that she didn't feel the need to flaunt them this year (unlike many of the other women on the red carpet *cough* JLo). A close second favorite overall look of the night.
Bridesmaid's Wendi McLendon- Covey in CB Haute Couture looks like a princess!
Leslie Mann in Roberto Cavalli. I love how the sequins add pizazz to the dark blue fabric. Her sophisticated ponytail was also very chic.
Bridesmaid's Ellie Kemper was a breath of fresh air in this bold Armani Prive metallic "rust" colored gown.
Octavia Spencer was radiant in this Tadashi Shoji sparkling gown. Her acceptance speech made me teary!
Kate Mara (who looked WAY better than her sister) in Jack Guisso (although many reports said it was Elie Saab- it is very Saab-ish, which is probably why I like it so much!)
Mila Jovovich SPOTTED in vintage Elie Saab!
Adorable Berenice Bejo SPOTTED in custom Elie Saab!
