As Oscars red carpets go, this year was a good one. Very few disappointed and when they did it was more like merrr it's OK, rather than an OMG THAT'S HORRIFIC kind of faux pas.
Lots of sexy reds complimented the carpet last night, as did the obligatory nudes. Pastels, in the form of Mila Kunis, were oh-so pretty and sparkles arrived in bucket loads.
