The Best of the 86th Annual Oscar's: Hair, Makeup & Dressed

Oscar Season 2014 has come and gone - and what a season it was! Filled with amazing movies and even more amazing performances, this years Oscars celebrations were not to be missed!


Hosted by the ever so funny and ever so lovely Ellen Degeneres, this years Oscar's was the best yet! She had me laughing out loud quite often and I can't help but love her and the connection she has with all of these celebrities. She made this year truly memorable, of course only aside to all the gowns, looks and beauty that we all really watch the Oscar's for! Let's get to my favourites of the night!

There were so many amazing looks on Sunday to chose from, made it very hard to break down my favourites. Please don't be offended if I don't pick your favourite, this is only what I think in my opinion is the best of the Oscar's. Don't forget to let me know which were your favourite looks of the night in the comments box below!

Best Hair:





Margot Robbie - I was pleasantly surprised at the dramatic colour change that she showed up with but I absolutely love it! Don't get me wrong - I love her as a blond, but this dark colour brings out the vamp in her and I like it!!





Lupita Nyong'o - How adorable is she in her cute little hairband?! Right?! I love this look not only for the adorable and girly headband, but because it contrasts against the bad ass shaved sides of her head. There's a balance of beauty and bad ass that I absolutely love. It was perfect!

Olivia Wilde - I've just got to say that she is doing pregnancy right! She looks amazing pregnant or non-pregnant! Her hair for the festivities was polished and conservative enough for the Oscar's, but bohemian and cute enough that it was still her style. Just right for the occasion!

















Best Makeup:





Emma Watson - I love seeing her evolve every time I see her at an awards show, I am loving the stylish babe she's becoming! Her look was soft, Old Hollywood glamour - but still young and fresh. I love the strong brow, soft eye and tomato red lip. Beautiful!





Margot Robbie - I do have to say that I think the reason I loved her makeup on Sunday is because it was part of the new vampy package that she came in - and I'm in love!! I love that the dark brow to match her new hair colour is also making her blue eyes pop. The clean eye brings all the focus to that purpley, vampy lip. Just Stunning!





Olivia Wilde - I am always loving her makeup at every occasion and celebration, and I especially loved that she went with something a little edgy-er to show everyone that pregnancy doesn't mean 'boring'! Crisp, dark cat-eye eyeliner paired with a matte light pink lip and perfect skin - absolutely FLAWLESS!












Best Dressed:


Lupita Nyong'o - She wore a beautiful pastel blue flowing gown by Prada, and she looks like heaven. This dress is the right mix of sexy and cute and makes her skin look like butter! Butter! Perfect colour for spring and the plunging neckline lets us know what it's all about! Amazing!




Charlize Theron - There's no way I could possibly be talking about the Oscar's best dressed and not include Charlize. She killed it in this dress! The sheer panels, amazing neckline of this Dior Haute Couture Black gown, takes the LBD to the next level and beyond!




Kate Blanchett - I have always admired her style and she did not disappoint Sunday with this Armani Prive nude/blush gown with sequins and Swarovski crystals. Nude and blush are such huge colours this spring and this dress definitely set the trend last night. She looked so beautiful!



Best Overall:


I know this is the big one and I could not not give it to: Lupita Nyong'o!! She looked like an angel in that dress, her hair made her look playful and fun and the whole ensemble was nothing but stunning from top to bottom! Well deserved, she looked amazing, I loved it!



Best Male:


I had to give this one to Bradley Cooper! He always looks so good whenever he sets out in a suit. It was really hard to chose among so many well put together men! It was really hard to decide between Bradley and Leo, Leo is my main chew, but Bradley definitely deserves the recognition of being one sexy human being!



Best Baby Bump:


I know, this isn't usually a category when I do these posts, but I just love Olivia Wilde and her whole look - that I think it wouldn't be right to not give her any recognition! I love her laid back, effortless look with this black and white Valentino, with pockets and beautiful back details. How amazing does she look!? Perfect hair, makeup and so adorable with her new family! I absolutely love her and Jason Sudeikis, they are going to make one beautiful and hilarious baby!
