Cupcake Chowder presents:

3rd annual best-dressed at the Oscars!

Our best-dressed winner belongs to the gorgeous Penelope Cruz. Penelope was on my best-dressed list last year, and never fails to disappoint. I love the rich burgundy color of her Donna Karan Cotoure, which really popped on the Oscar stage.
1st runner-up goes to one of my favorite actresses, Kate Winslet. Kate is usually on my best dressed lists as well. She always looks simple yet elegant, especially in this Yves St. Laurent number with matching silver clutch.
2nd runner-up is the fabulous Queen Latifah. She totally rocked this soft lilac Badgley Mischka gown with jewel encrusted straps. Seriously, when she walked out onto the Oscar stage my jaw dropped. Gorgeous!Cameron Diaz is our Miss Congeniality winner. Cameron has disappointed me so many times on the red carpet, but this year I was thrilled to see her finally get it right. I love her total look - from her hair to her champagne beaded Oscar de la Renta.Honorable mention goes to first-time Oscar winner Sandra Bullock. I have to admit, I am not a fan of the hair and red lipstick, but this Marchesa dress is absolute gorgeous! It was her night, and I have to give her props for her beautiful Oscar fashion.Who was your favorite red carpet diva?

Cupcake Chowder presents:

2nd annual best-dressed at the Oscars list!

First off, I just want to make note that I was extremely pleased that Slumdog Millionaire walked away the big winner of the evening. It was a wonderful movie, and I hope you all have the opportunity to see it. That being said, on to my list of the most glamorous ladies of the evening...

Our best-dressed winner is the beautiful and talented Anne Hathaway. Truly, this picture does not do the best actress nominee justice! She looked simple and stunning in her Armani Prive gown.First runner-up goes to Miss Amy Adams who was stunning in scarlet. The dress was made by one of my favorite designers, Carolina Herrera, and the funky and fresh jewels are Fred Leighton. I love this girl!Second runner-up honors go to Penelope Cruz. Penelope always looks amazing on the red carpet, and this year was no exception. I loved the exquisite detail on her vintage Pierre Balmain gown. Congratulations on your win Penelope!The Miss Congeniality award goes to Alicia Keys. I was very surprised to see her all glammed-up in this purple Armani Prive number. She looked soft and elegant, and it was a nice change to see some color (besides ivory) on the red carpet. Honorable mention must be made for Taraji P. Henson. The best supporting actress nominee looked classy in her Roberto Cavalli strapless dress, and Fred Leighton necklace.
