Sparkle Like The Stars

Penelope Cruz hit the red carpet at the Oscars wearing a mauve (yeah, I KNOW!) gown with an interesting bodice and LOADS of feathers for the skirt. It has this kind of 1920s feel to it - like an extra long feathery flapper dress. He bodice has an art deco or ocean feel with all those waves. I am just not in love with it - the color, the dress, the feathers. I mean, there are lots of cold birds out there now! Penelope Cruz is a stunningly beautiful woman and bright, vibrant colors really suit her. I don’t know what she was thinking in picking this washed out gown. But I guess in a bright color, this dress would really make you look like a bird.

Penelope forgoes a necklace. Her bodice is fancy enough to go bare, but I think she could have pulled off a little diamond number. Her earrings are marvelous though!
