The 86th Academy Awards hosted by one of my personal favorites Ellen Degeneres took place last night and as always there was a share of stunning fashion moments (The BEST LOOKS), as well as a hand-full of fashion faux pas' (The WORST LOOKS).

And as we all know, Rain or Shine the show must go on. As do the fashion critique's from Fashion experts, bloggers, stylists and well, myself on behalf of the Styleshack team.

Common style themes we saw from the leading ladies on the red carpet last night:

  • Old Hollywood Look (which includes, Glitz & Sequin, Metallics, High Necklines, A-line gowns)
  • Grecian Goddess Silhouette
  • Pastels
  • Peplum

And lets not ignore our dapper men, my absolute FAVORITE actor since he stole my heart in 'How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days,' Matthew McConaughey.  He looked phenomenal in a white tuxedo ensemble, McConaughey takes the cake for the BEST MEN'S LOOK of the evening.  And his best accessories were his dates, wife Camila and his Mother and of course his new shiny Oscar!
