Octavia Spencer @ 84th Annual Academy Awards

Octavia looked amazing in this white sequinned number by Tadashi Shoji to collect her best supporting actress award for the The Help (she was the best thing in that movie) the dress fit her like a glove and loved how the sequins helped to enhance her gorgeous curves.

Esperanza Spalding @ 84th Annual Academy Awards

Ms Spalding in ice blue, I can't say I'm in love with this dress as it looks more suited to a bridesmaid than an award ceremony but when teamed with that fro! she could be wearing a sack!

Rooney Mara & Michelle Williams @ 84th Annual Academy Awards

Love Rooney Mara's hair and make up and Michelle's peplum dress, two of my favourite red carpet looks at the Oscars

Viola Davis @ 84th Annual Academy Awards

I was hoping that she would and she did! Viola Davis rocked her TWA on the Oscar red carpet to rave reviews. Wearing a gorgeous emerald green Vera Wang gown though she missed out on the best actress award she won in the style stakes.
