83RD ANNUAL ACADEMY AWARDS BEST DRESSED LIST

After being slightly bored with the fashion at the Grammy Awards, it was simply delightful to be able to pick and choose five stunning gowns! The red carpet dawned many surprising trends for Spring 2011, most notably, the surplus of red gowns, form fitting pieces, and intricate beadwork to name a few!

5-Sandra Bullock in Vera Wang
The always funny and always classy Sandra Bullock showed up at the red carpet in a figure flattering Vera Wang gown. Her simple accessories, makeup and pulled back hair enable the dress to remain the focal point and really take over.


4-Cate Blanchett in Givenchy Couture
Cate Blanchett took a risk with this Givenchy Couture Spring 2011 piece. The silk chiffon lavender gown is embroidered in leather pearls and crystals. Combined with the structure at the shoulders, the dress is reminiscent of a piece of art, and is light and refreshing on Blanchett’s silhouette.


3-Michelle Williams in Chanel
Who doesn’t love Chanel? Actually, who doesn’t love Michelle William’s in Chanel? The Blue Valentine actress looked elegant in a short sleeve winter white Chanel gown that draped her petite figure perfectly. Taking the piece from conservative to glamorous, William’s paired the gown with Harry Winston diamond earrings.


2-Halle Barry in Marchesa
Halle Barry is undoubtedly one of my favorite red carpet fashion icons. Her choices are always breathtaking and this crystal encrusted Machesa corset gown is no different. She takes a feminine, romantic piece and adds a sultry flare to it, courtesy of her flawless figure.


1-Mila Kunis in Elie Saab
What a surprise! Mila Kunis looks breathtaking in Elie Saab. The lavender tiered gown combined with sheer lace detail screams femininity and grace. Do I spot a new fashion icon on the rise? Hears hoping!

All lights on her


(Natalie Portman)


(Cate Blanchett)


(Scarlett Johansson)


(Gwyneth Paltrow)
 

(Anne Hathaway)

At the Oscars last night, the ladies all had their glamour on for the biggest award show of the year.  Although I have my favorites,  there weren't really any "misses"...kinda of a bummer that everyone played it safe.

Let me just start by saying how happy I was that dear Natalie Portman won the best actress!!  And of course she looked glowing with her baby bump now very visible.  But my top choice is Cate Blanchett with an edgier Givenchy Haute Couture number.  Scarlett Johansson never failed to ooze sensuality and Gwyneth Paltrow is simply stunning.  As for host Anne Hathaway, she managed 9 outfits throughout the night!  However, the Valentino red gown was clearly the winner.

35 years after the fall: The Vietnam War in picture

U.S. military action in Vietnam was a piece in the global Cold War struggle. After Vietnamese nationalists overthrew French colonialists in the 1950s, the country was divided between the Communist north and the anti-Communist south. In the ensuing conflict, Washington backed the south, fearing that a Communist takeover could cascade through Southeast Asia. The first U.S. forces engaged in the conflict in secret, by way of Cambodia. As the civil war intensified in the 1960s, the United States expanded its operations in the region, deploying some 3 million American troops over time, but U.S. forces struggled to gain ground as they fought in difficult and unfamiliar terrain against extremely capable in guerrilla fighters. As the war dragged on and casualties mounted, opposition to the war exploded. By the time American forces withdrew in 1975 and Saigon fell to Ho Chi Minh's Communists, 58,000 Americans and between 1 million and 2 million Vietnamese had died. It was the longest war in U.S. history and the most unpopular American war of the 20th century. In this 1965 photo, paratroopers cross a river in the rain near Ben Cat, in the south.

The South Vietnamese regime backed by the United States in the early days of the conflict was notoriously corrupt and authoritarian. President Ngo Dinh Diem, who was part of the Catholic minority, populated his government and military with Catholics, fomenting widespread unrest among the country's Buddhist majority. In this image taken June 11, 1963, Buddhist monk Quang Duc burns himself to death at a busy Saigon intersection to protest persecution of Buddhists. The picture came to represent the failure of the Diem regime and a growing public relations problem for the U.S. Several months later, Diem was overthrown, executed and buried in an unmarked grave.
