I love it when the summer breezes wrap around me whenever I step outside…casual dresses and sandals are my favorite ensemble for day wear during these warmer months.  No matter the color of the frock or the cut of the neckline, I usually pair a cute accessory to complete my look too.  And, I always don my Jackie O inspired sunglasses–I indulge in any attempt to prevent wrinkles!   What dress or designer are you most desiring right now? (Recently, I’ve been online window “stalking” this Shoshanna one-shouldered dress!)

How much fun were the Oscars this year?!  The show was fun, full of surprises, made breezy due to great banter between the two hosts, and even included that random dance routine (which I could have lived without).  The red carpet didn’t disappoint either!  My favorite starlets were out in full fashion force and they ALL looked lovely.

These are my top picks from last night! Jenifer Lopez’s  silk organza gown from Armani Privé’s Spring 2010 collection and Demi Moore’s ruffled silk organza gown from Atelier Versace were just stunning.  Either of these dresses could be transitioned into wedding gowns! And I just adore Vera Farmiga’s ruffled fuchsia gown from Marchesa–she evoked old Hollywood glamor perfectly!  Which dresses were your favorite?    

Check out all the great highlights and celebrity post-show plans from the Oscar after-parties!!!  After arriving at the Govenor’s Ball, Sandra Bullock told reporters she just wants ”to eat and not worry that this dress will bust open!”  Don’t you just love her!
