Stellar Style. Oscars 09

On the biggest night in Hollywood, the stars were looking stellar! The red carpet was ablaze with white-hot glamour. So it's no surprise then that my TOP PICKS for the evening were all heavenly visions of white.

Oscar winner, Penelope Cruz danced among the clouds in a breath-taking Balmain gown, joined by the beautifully eclectic Sarah Jessica Parker, in a Christian Dior Haute Couture dream. Successfully playing with volume, the two floated down the red carpet, like a lingering whisper of a reverie.

Anna Hathaway, in Armani Prive, and Taraji Henson, in Roberto Cavalli, stunned in the very absence of color as well, this time mixing textures, and creating an equally luminescent effect.


Speaking of celestial beings, no Oscar review is complete without the new generation's Hollywood titans. Brad Pitt, in classic Tom Ford, and the ridiculously gorgeous Angelina Jolie, in Elie Saab. And can we talk about the emerald-colored accessories on Jolie? Is it possible to be too good-looking?

While penguins are my favorite animal, the red carpet can start looking a little monotonous. However, a couple fellas did manage to stand out...or maybe I'm still just a sucker for the bad boy. Sean Penn was looking refined in all black-and I love, LOVE a satin lapel. And Robert Downey, Jr. was quite handsome in a beautiful tux that had a certain art-deco charm to it.


Ok, I threw the usually ultra-feminine, frock-wearing Eva in with the guys because she's proved she can hold her own with the big boys. She looks incredible. Enough said.
