Oscar Round-Up 2011: The Good & The Not So Good

First things first: I had so much fun tweeting live during the show with all of you! It makes our version of the Super Bowl 10 times better when you can chat with your girlfriends about every last detail. K can never keep up, so he was just grateful he didn't have to comment on hair, makeup, skin care, and gowns- ha!

So it seems as if every oh-la-la moment at the Academy Awards were met with an oh-no-no-NO moment. Let's start with the good:

Halle Berry looked fit and whimsical in Marchesca:

Natalie Portman was glowing in her plum Rodarte gown:
Jennifer Lawrence rocked it out in a simple Calvin Klein form-fitting dress:

Michelle Williams was chic in Chanel:

And now the not-so-good...

Marisa Tomei in a 1950 couture Charles James dress from Lily et Cie:

ScarJo, my girl, what happened? She's stunning, but this Dolce & Gabanna lace get up is not:

Nicole Kidman was anything but couture in this Dior gown:

Cate Blanchett is a timeless beauty, but her Givenchy Haute Couture dress didn't work:

There were a few in-between looks, in my opinion. I wouldn't put these gowns on the 'best' list, but they were far from being bad!

I liked Amy Adams' emerald green Cartier bauble better than her hign-necked, clingy L'Wren Scott gown:

Mila Kunis looked pretty in lavender lace by Elie Saab:

Reese Witherspoon in Giorgio Armani (and possibly a Bump-It in that pony). Her entire look reminded me of Julia Roberts' when she won in 2001 for Erin Brockovich:

Gwyneth Paltrow was sleek in Calvin Klein:

I'm obsessed with Celine Dion, so of course I thought she looked gorgeous in Armani Prive:

Okay, after looking at Gwyneth's dress again I'm thinking she may need to be moved toward 'the not-so-good' category. She was going to the Oscar's - she shouldn't have dressed like one.

I am dying to know your thoughts!
