I’m back! I had so much fun doing my middle aged mom commentary for the Golden Globes, I’m back for the Oscars, which is basically the Golden Globes for a select few 63 year old white men, something they like to call “The Academy.” Pffft. Even old white men like to see pretty ladies all gussied up.
This was a safe year for Oscar fashion. I think the most risque thing was seeing Liza Minelli without a bra and Pharell Williams in short pants. The trends were nudes (so many of the starlets looked like they were coming off a college art modeling class), bedazzled frocks, and dark lips. Some of it worked, some of it didn’t — at least from this middle aged mom’s point of view.
So here goes, without further delay, my picks for the hits, the misses, the meh, and a few men thrown in for good measure. Enjoy!
And if you like it, share this sucker.
