Is it only me who thinks that Oscars this year were a little bit..hmm..e.. boring?!
First of all, i wasn't surprised that these movies and actors won. And secondly, were was the style?class?why the ladies chose to be either like wanna-be-brides or barbie-queens?

..and that my friend is art


I truly believe that fashion, above many things, is art.
Many would say "come on, seriously girl, would you wear any of these dresses to go to a club or..anywhere?''
Well..i have to admit..no..
BUT as i said before, fashion  is not those colorful things called clothes.. 
it's so much more!
and i have proof..
She made photos come alive on dresses..!! how cool is that?!
