I don't know about you, but for me the award show season is always a little less about praise and more about who wore the prettiest gown. Since the Oscars punctuate the season with the most fashionable wardrobe choices of the year, I spent all weekend giddy with excitement and counting down to the red carpet. I've been following Lupita Nyong'o's outfit choices this year and have been blown away every. single. time. (Have you forgotten the caped Ralph Lauren?) Never one to disappoint, the first-time Academy attendee stunned in pastel blue and gave the most heartfelt speech (complete with hugs from Brad Pitt). You go girl!
