The Oscars (or is it the 77th Annual Academy Awards?) has FINALLY arrived. It is one of THE events of the year that fashionistas like us look forward to. The stars are out and so are the fashion. This year, there seems to be an excess of trails and tails and lots and lots of simple elegance! So, lets start with our favourite mermaids of the red carpet. . .

Academy Award winner for best supporting actress in the "Aviator", Cate Blanchett looking stunning in this refreshing yellow Valentino creation. Refreshing in that one rarely sees yellow on the red carpet at all!


Although yellow seems to be on the roll this time around, as Penelope Cruz too walked the red carpet in this gorgeous yellow creation by Oscar de la Renta.


Gwyneth Paltrow also took a liking to the lighter colors, arriving in this beeeeeautiful nude colored elegant strapless dress by Stella McCartney. One of my favourites of the day. I love the fact that her hair is let loose in such a casual way (even though this look probably took AGES to achieve).


White also seems to be quite a popular color this time, with Catalina Sandino Moreno in this lovely white creation. I had a hard time deciding whether to show a photo of the front or the back of the dress, because they are equally as lovely. In the ended I decided on the front because it best showed off the simple elegance of the dress, but DOtake a look at the back of her dress.


Although my observation on white might be due to Gisele Bundchen, who was in a LOT of photos next to Academy Award Nominee, Leonardo DiCaprio. Only a supermodel like her can carry off such a poofy white baby doll dress without looking like a balloon (or that she's just gotten out of bed) and in fact looks quite cute and pretty.


Renee Zellweger looking very unconfortable, but defintely mermaid-like in this red Carolina Herrera creation. She seems to be quite a fan of Carolina Herrera, as her dress at the Golden Globes was also by her. This dress especially suits her now that she has dark hair, I don't think she would look quite as stunning if she had been blonde. .


Emmy Rossum, from Phantom of the Opera, looking sophisticated and gorgeous in this red creation by her favourite designer-Ralph Lauren. Gosh I LOVE LOVE LOVE Ralph Lauren. He always manages to make a girl look gorgeous in a timeless and classical way.


Academy Award Winner for best actress in a leading role in "Million Dollar Baby", Hilary Swank standing out in this high necked, long sleeved, backless dark blue gown by Guy Laroche. Defintely different from the other strapless/sleeveless stars of the night.

But ofcourse, while the lighter colors are prominent, black will always be THE color. And Beyonce was the epitome of elegance and style in this simple black strapless Versace dress. She has defintely got the glam and style together this season, looking equally as elegant in black at the Grammys.

Its always good to see a fellow asian on the red carpet, but it is even better to see them looking gorgeous on it as well. And Zhang Zi Yi definitely looks gorgeous in this black tiered dress.

Sigh. . its always so much fun to look at the Oscar fashions! While we cannot afford to and don't have the opportunity to wear or imitate any of these dresses, it is still extremely aesthetically pleasing to one's eye to look at admire.

Lets start off with Miu Miu, and this lovely black crocheted dress. How much more ladylike can one get with that head scarf? The message is clear. However, I must say, I am not too impressed with Miu Miu's offerings this season. Perhaps it is just because it is being compared to these wonderful and boooootiful creations, that follows. . . .
Following their success this spring, Gucci has continued their streak and came out with this gorgeous collection of mostly black and sleek items. The lady inside is further emphasized by those very chic hats that all the models wore, which just goes to show how versatile this look is!-From this sleek black long jacket. . .


To this gorgeous floral black cocktail dress!

And one must NOT forget VERSACE this season (and I do this in bold AND caps because it is truly a wonderful show!). Words cannot descirbe my amazement and awe of Versace's transformation to the simple, classical, chic, sleek, wearable and beautful this season. Whenever Versace is mentioned, gold, over the top, patterned, flashy and unwearble comes to mind. But NOW I have been totally reformed (as u can see I am so in awe my sentences doesn't even flow!). Don't u just LOVE this long cinched white jacket?

And this simple chic outfit. . . I can actually see someone wearing this in the streets!!

I know that this is not exactly wearable all the time, but I cannot resist and feature this gorgeous blue dress. Instead of being revealing and flashy, it is elegant and classy. . like a greek godess. . .

And this irrisistable gold dress... definately Oscar-worthy!

I have always loved D&G even though I'm not a very adventurous dresser. It inspires me to try little things out and be fun and wild from time to time. And as usual, it has not disappointed. Their collection this season calls out to us to be lady-like with a twist, by matching to-die-for gold feminine dresses with wild printed boots!

Wear huge flowered peasent tops (for a more boho feel) tucked in metallic gold pants! Sigh. . . u gotta love Milan!

What would Nicole Richie and Julie Cooper (from the OC, otherwise known as Melinda Clarke) have in common? Well, a picture is worth a thousand words, and there are two of them below:

In case you missed the obvious, they look remarkably alike, from their hairstyle to their very distinct and confident gaze. Julie Cooper is practically what Nicole Richie would look like in 10 years time. In fact, they would so remarkably alike, it makes one wonder if they share the same plastic surgeon. You know how they say everyone leaves a distinct mark or style on everything they do?


Incidentally, Harrods girl and I would like to once again put our stamp of approval on Nicole Richie's new look and sense of style. This outfit she wore for the Grammys is defintely a vast improvement. In fact she comes close to being one of the more well-dressed people at the Grammys. . .

Counting down to the Academy Awards, now what would I wear.

This beautiful long silky gown is just yummy.

Just love the beautiful chiffon embroidered details.

Very sexy chiffon kick-pleat and a very low cut back.

Well, reveling more is great fun, and sexy too.

The see through wrap adds a touch of class and the sparkling silver high heel shoes add a nice finishing touch.

Ever wonder how your favorite celebrities fashions change through the years?

Well, there is a time machine at the official Academy Awards site were you can view what a actress wore at several past Academy Awards presentations.

Some of my favorites are Cher, Halle Berry, Holly Hunter - love those see through lingerie gown looks.

These go with the boho look as well as the greek theme. If you don't like the chunky bangles, this can be another choice for your braclet of the season.

Spring is the time when things start to grow again and life is born, but it doesn't just stop at plants and animals this season! This season life has expanded and started to grow on fashion as well. . . especifically FRUITS. Yes, its time to get fruity!

Smell fruity, like a green apple and "Be Delicious" in this new refreshing DKNY scent.


Be simple but fruity and "fresh" with this green tee from shop intuition.


Get fruity with Juicy, in this yellow strawberry tee (yellow is very in this spring too!)

This green apple patterned creation by Luella Bartle is simply gorgeous! It is fruity in a very stylish and subtle way that is both very refreshing and elegant. Sigh. . . I want it!!

Be delicious in this cherry patterned summer dress by Nanette Lepore.

And we must not forget the origin of the come back of fruits- the Louis Vuitton Murakami Cherry bag ofcourse! Who can resist this?

But if you cannot afford that lovely creation, you can still be fruity with this super-cute strawberry tote from Urban Outfitters. And for once you FINALLY fit in all your essentials-perfect for school or for casual wear.
