Oscars 2010: Cameron Diaz – Best Dressed – traditional

camerondiaz_oscars2010A vision of loveliness.  Cameron Diaz brought the nude look via dress by Oscar de la Renta and carried the red on lips and nails, which was stunning.

Let’s not forget the lovely coif.  After a night of ‘editorial hair’ (mostly pinned back hair with flyaways), we have someone that looks like she has a clean head of hair that has been lovingly curled.

This is the look we’ve come to expect on the Red Carpet.  Flawless.

She’s Got the Look: Diane Kruger’s Updo

dianekruger_oscars2010Oscars 2010 was the year of editorialized hair, which meant a lot of slick backed looks with (read: frizz). Diane Krueger had one of the prettiest takes – somewhat intricate with braids and ponytails and rolls.

Danilo, Celebrity Stylist for Pantene, styled this look for Kruger and shares how you can recreate this at home:

  • Cleanse and condition hair with the Pantene Pro-V Restoratives Frizz Control Shampoo and Conditioner
  • Mist a leave-in conditioner and the Pantene Pro-V Volume Root Lifter Spray Gel all over damp hair
  • Blow dry hair upside down to create a voluminous base for styling
  • Section hair into a side part, divide into three sections (sides and back)
  • Braid side sections of hair back away from the face in an upward direction creating tightness on the sides
  • Pull the back section of hair into a high ponytail leaving volume on top
  • Split ponytail into two sections and twist in a rope-like formation, incorporating side braids into two back twists
  • Continually twist hair while pinning it into place as the twist braid is knotted up around itself
  • Mist hair with the Pantene Pro-V Texture Hairspray to lock style in place
  • Finish the look with a pretty broche to dress up the look.  Diane wore a Chanel Camelia Nervure brooch to compliment her Chanel gown.

Oscars 2010: Sarah Jessica Parker aka SJP

sjp_oscars2010
Whenever I see rosettes, I always remember the episode of Project Runway where the Ohio fashion designer made little rosettes all over her ‘world traveler’ outfit, including butt pockets. She was laughed off of the show, but it only made me notice the little flowerettes popping up all over fashion.

This year the garden is coming mainstream. I have to admit I bought a very pretty blush top lined with rosettes – and was a little shocked to find them in force for the Oscars. SJP wore one of the more acceptable versions by Chanel Couture, in a soft yellow shade with chic gray/silver. However, the dress was ill-fitting and just not her normal knockout style. Baggy to no end, could she be hiding that fabulous figure because she’s knocked up? That’s one way to reason a stylist’s err of ways.

Oscars 2010: Jennifer Lopez

jlo_oscars22010JLo is another actress that is Pretty in Pink, but for someone who wasn’t even nominated, there was a whole lotta dress going on.  The sculptured/ruffled look was dominant and of course Lopez carried off one of the most extravagant of the evening.  Lovely to see how the concept (drawing) compares to the final product.  Designed by Armani Prive.
