The Academy Awards held last night February 22nd at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles. As usual it was full of excitement as Hollywood comes out to celebrate its finest! Host Neil Patrick Harris gave a great introductory performance and made me chuckle here and there but I did not think he was so funny.

Did anyone else get teary eyed when John Legend and Common performed Glory from the movie Selma? They sure took us to church with that poignant number! And congrats on their win for best original song.
Patrica Arquette's acceptance speech for best supporting actress was epic! "To every woman who gave birth to every taxpayer and citizen of this nation ... it's our time to have wage equality once and for all", the Oscar winner said. Its about time!

Congratulations to Eddie Redmayne on his best actor in a leading role win and Julianne Moore on her best actress in a leading role win. The big award of the night - Best picture went to Birdman and it was well deserved! See full list of winners here.

OK, now lets talk red carpet fashion. Whites! Whites!! Whites!!! That seemed to be the color of the night as many starlets looked gracious rocking the timeless hue. My top three dresses are: Lupita Nyon'o's, Gwyneth Paltrow's, and Jennifer Lopez's! They looked amazing!
