Red Carpet Style - Lupita Nyong'o

Lupita Nyong'o's red carpet style this award season has been so on point, especially considering it's her first year being nominated for all the major awards, its amazing how her stylist has introduced her as not only an incredible actress but also a style icon. She has stepped it up every award show from the first major show, the Golden Globes, (see my best dressed here) in that iconic Ralph Lauren cape dress to the Oscars earlier this month in Prada (post here).

A running theme in Luptia's style has been colour blocking and minimalistic styles, the bold, rich colours look stunning against her skin tone and the simplistic shape of the gowns create understated yet incredible looks.

Here are some of my favourite looks ...

The Golden Globes in Ralph Lauren
The Vanity Fair Oscar Party in Miu Miu
The Oscar's in Prada
The Bafta's in Dior

- OSCARS Best Dressed -

Lupita Nyong'o and Naomi Watts
Yet again Lupita Nyong'o is my best dressed! She looks stunning in this elegant Prada gown, the colour, which she said reminded her of her home country Nairobi, is so beautiful against her skin tone and the delicate jewellery she paired with it really pulls the outfit together, it was in my opinion the perfect dress to pick up her first Oscar at her first award season! Secondly Naomi Watts also looked amazing in this white textured Calvin Klein Collection dress, I am a big fan of Calvin Klein Collection dresses as they are always so understated and flawless and this was no expectation, I love that she paired it with slightly rockier hair and accessories to balance the look out.
Jared Leto and Joseph Gordon-Levitt
My best dressed men at Oscars were Jared Leto in Saint Laurent and Joseph Gordon-Levitt in Calvin Klein Collection. Leto was one of a few men who opted for white blazer and I absolutely love the look its very old Hollywood, and the red bow tie(also a big trend) was a great touch. Joseph Gordon-Levitt looks sharp as per usual and the slightly metallic tinge to the suit makes it more interesting.

BEST AWARD CEREMONY TO AFTER PARTY TRANSITION 
Chrissy Teigen and Kate Hudson
Both Chrissy Teigen and Kate Hudson looked great for the main award ceremony and the Vanity Fair after party. Chrissy Teigen started the evening in this beautiful Monique Lhuillier floral gown and later changed into this black sequin number for the after party. Kate Hudson wore this grecian style Versace Atelier gown for the award ceremony and then stuck with a similar shaped dress in the form of this equally stunning Zuhair Murah gown for the party.

It was a great night for fashion, as everyone really stepped up their game for Hollywood's biggest night! Leave a comment letting me know what you thought of the 2014 Oscars fashion and don't forget to follow on bloglovin, GFC or email.
