Sandra Bullock in Marchesa at the 2010 Oscars



At the 2010 Oscars, Sandra Bullock looked gorgeous in a great gown from Marchesa. Sandra always has a great, simple style that makes her seem down to earth and friendly, rather than out of reach like many of the stars. Sandra's girl next door style is easy for anyone to copy, and will look great on any woman, which is probably why nearly all of us love Sandra.


The Marchesa gown that the Best Actress Oscar winner wore was a beautiful gold color with beading that made her sparkle on the red carpet. Sandra, like most of us, looks incredible when she's all dressed up. Her hair, her makeup, the color of the dress was all perfect for her. The sheer bodice and shimmery skirt were sexy, yet subtle, and the bodice itself sparkled with with the floral design. She paired it with bright red lipstick, simple makeup, and had her long hair parted on the side, tucked behind her ear and falling over one shoulder with not a strand out of place. She looked radiant with her lovely earrings and bracelet, and the clutch she carried that was the same shimmery color as her skirt.

Sandra often looks comfortable with who she is, and the way she paired this gown and pulled off the look, even with the skirt reaching the floor and trailing along after her, unlike many of the celebs. So is there a lesson for us when we watch Sandra win such awards as Best Actress? The answer is simple � be comfortable with who you are and the rest will fall into place.

While there were several celebrities who wore Marchesa, such as Vera Farmigia, Sandra looked the best in the Marchesa gown that she chose. Marchesa is an incredible designer, and all the dresses look fantastic, though some of them seem a bit overly large or actually too detailed. Marchesa creates the dresses the stars wear, and also some fantastic bridal dresses. If you're looking for Marchesa gowns, head to Neiman Marcus or Bergdorf Goodman, since these are the only places you are likely to find such beautiful gowns in the United States.

Braids are a simple style to do and keep up. Men and women can get their hair braided in various designs and wear it for day�s even weeks before it needs to be done again. What started as a fashion statement turned into something very convenient. Alisha Keys now wears more traditionally style as she has grown along with her music. She has beautiful hair so she opts for a sleek straight style, sometimes with bangs or sometimes a curly more natural looking style. Alisha Keys is still a trend setter when it comes to hairstyles she has simply graduated from her braided designs.

Straight hair is extremely popular and individuals can have fun and look good while wearing it. Most people wash and blow dry the hair and then straighten it with a flat iron. Flat irons smooth the hair down from top to bottom and give it the sleek look. No matter how Alisha Keys wears her hair she is amazing and sexy.
