Fashion At The Oscars: Favorites And Hate-Its

The red carpet is a separate show in and of itself.

Fashion At The Oscars: Favorites And Hate-Its
Oscars2016Awards.com

On Feb. 28, 2016, the 88th Academy Awards aired and there were a lot of cool and interesting things that happened. Leo finally won an Oscar, Chris Rock made jokes about the racial controversy surrounding the show and Lady Gaga gave a powerful performance. But aside from all of that, the fashion on the red carpet happened to be both amazing and dreadful. I put together the best and worst looks of the night so you don't have to sit through "Fashion Police" to find out. (Side note: no men were included in this list because let's face it: they're all wearing the same exact tux.)


Best:

5. Priyanka Chopra

Priyanka Chopra looked absolutely stunning in this Zuhair Murad dress. From the gorgeous detailing to the elegant belt, she was definitely working it.


4. Jenny Beavan

If you were watching last night, then you were probably thinking, "What is this lady wearing...? Who let her into the Oscars?" Well, this is Jenny Beavan, an acclaimed costume designer who won for "Mad Max: Fury Road." She looked incredibly bad-ass in this custom leather jacket featuring a skull and flames to represent the film. I had to include her because she's being true to herself in what she wore.


3. Olivia Munn

For number three, I had to go with Olivia Munn. I live for simple elegance like this Stella McCartney dress and she's rocking it. Paired with simple jewels, a red lip and a sleek bun and Olivia looks ready to take over the world.


2. Saoirse Ronan

Saoirse Ronan walked onto the red carpet and my jaw dropped. This custom Calvin Klein dress hugs her body in every right way and the emerald color (to represent her home country of Ireland) is absolutely breathtaking.


1. Brie Larson

Brie Larson... there are no words. I immediately fell in love with this breathtaking Gucci dress. From the fabric to the insane belt to the flattering neckline, I am overwhelmed. Her hair looks amazing slicked back like that and it doesn't take anything away from beauty of the gown. Well done, Brie!


Worst:

5. Kate Winslet

Three words: glossy trash bag.


4.Charlize Theron

Charlize, I loved you in "Mad Max: Fury Road." But this Dior dress is doing nothing for you. The deep neckline and spaghetti straps look awkward and the train seems weirdly long. Red is your color, though!


3. Rooney Mara


I'm going to be honest: I literally laughed out loud when I saw this dress last night. Don't get me wrong, Rooney Mara is a fantastic actress, but this dress? A terrible decision. I hate the weird diamond cut in the middle and the fabric looks like a table cloth. It's a no from me.


2. Heidi Klum

Heidi, I have two solutions for this: lose the flowers and lose the sleeve. And maybe do something about the weird shape that's going on on your chest. Is that a quadrilateral?


1. Olivia Wilde

Sorry, Olivia, but you're taking the top spot on the terrible dresses list. Olivia Wilde is an overall gorgeous person that can honestly work everything except this dress. I don't understand the choker or the neckline, which looks kind of like that picture Kim Kardashian posted of her trick to keep her cleavage looking good. Maybe next year, Olivia.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
