The Academy Awards 2012

Jessica Chastain (in Alexander McQueen) and Milla Jovovich (in Elie Saab)

Hi people!
I don't know about you, but I get really excited about the Academy Awards every year. I'm always interested in who will wear what, who will win, who will show up, etc. Unfortunately I couldn't watch it live because Croatian National Television didn't broadcast it this year (again!), and that is actually the second year in the row that they didn't broadcast it. It makes me furious, because I couldn't find any other programme that I could watch it on either. Anyways, I'm glad Meryl Streep won, but I'm disappointed that George Clooney didn't take home the most coveted statue in the world... Everybody was expecting it, right?
Now, let's move on to the dresses, because that's what we were looking forward to:) All in all, there were a lot of beautiful dresses, but also some that were too simple for the biggest night of the year, and of course, some that were just wrong. If you've been following me for a longer period of time, then you know I do my little review of the dresses at the Oscars every year. Well, this year will be no exception. This is just my opinion and you can agree with me or not. Enjoy!
What do you think? Who was the biggest hit, and who was the biggest miss?

Pozdrav dragi moji!
Ne znam za vas, ali ja sam svake godine uzbuđena kada dođe vrijeme dodjele Oscara. Uvijek me zanima tko će što nositi, tko će pobijediti, tko će se pojaviti, itd. Nažalost, ove godine opet nisam mogla ceremoniju gledati uživo, jer ju HRT opet nije prenosio, i to je druga godina za redom da nisu prenosili. Bijesna sam zbog toga, jer nisam mogla naći prijenos ni na jednom drugom programu koji vidim. Uglavnom, drago mi je da je Meryl Streep dobila Oscara (u toj kategoriji za najbolju glumicu su mi bile favoritkinje Meryl i Rooney Mara), ali sam razočarana što George Clooney nije ponio najtraženiji kipić kući... Svi su to očekivali, zar ne?
Pređimo sada na haljine, jer to je ono čemu smo se svi veselili:) Sve u svemu, bilo je puno lijepih haljina, ali bilo je i onih koje su bile prejednostavne za najveću noć u godini, i nraravno, onih koje su jednostavno bile pogrešne. Ako me pratite duže vrijeme, onda znate da radim svoj mali pregled haljina sa Oscara svake godine. Ova godina također neće biti iznimka. Ovo je samo moje mišljenje i možete se složiti s njime, ili ne. Uživajte!
Što vi mislite? Tko je bio najveći pogodak, a tko najveći promašaj?

Gwyneth Paltrow in Tom Ford

This is definitely one of my favorite looks of the night. The dress itself

is absolutely gorgeous, but what gives it a whole new dimesion is the cape that

Gwyneth wore over it. I mean, how often do you see a white dress paired with a white

cape at the Academy Awards?! This entire outfit is perfect in my opinion, and I also love

the jewelry. Only Tom Ford can do something like this, and Gwyneth was the right

person to wear it.

Ovo mi je definitivno jedna od najdražih kombinacija večeri. Haljina je

prekrasna sama po sebi, ali ono što joj daje novu dimenziju je plašt koji je

Gwyneth nosila preko nje. Mislim, koliko često vidite bijelu haljinu iskombiniranu

sa bijelim plaštem na Oscarima?! Cijeli ovaj outfit je savršen po mom mišljenju, i nakit je 

također predivan. Samo Tom Ford može napraviti ovako nešto, i Gwyneth je

bila prava osoba da to nosi.

Jessica Chastain in Alexander McQueen

When I saw this dress, I immediately knew it was McQueen. It's just so obvious.

This is also one of my favorite dresses of the evening because it's so beautiful,

and it even looks royal to me. I mean, it's McQueen. No further words necessary.

Kad sam vidjela ovu haljinu, odmah sam znala da je to McQueen. Stvarno je očito.
Ovo je također jedna od mojih najdražih haljina večeri jer je prekrasna, i
meni čak izgleda kraljevski. To je McQueen. Svako daljnje objašnjenje je suvišno.

George Clooney in Giorgio Armani and Stacy Keibler in Marchesa
I don't like her at all, but the dress is stunning! It totally reminds me of liquid gold.
The shape is also amazing.

Prijevod:
Ne volim ju uopće, ali haljina je božanstvena! Totalno me podsjeća na tekuće zlato.
Cijeli oblik haljine je divan.

Berenice Bejo in Elie Saab
Two words come to mind when I look at this dress: minty perfection! I don't even know
who this woman is, but the dress is divine. The transparent sleeves are so ladylike, and
the material falls so perfectly on her body.

Dvije riječi mi padaju na pamet kad gledam ovu haljinu: minty savršenstvo! Ne znam ni tko
je ova žena, ali haljina je božanstvena. Prozirni rukavi su tako ženstveni, i
materijal savršeno pada na tijelu.

Milla Jovovich in Elie Saab
Isn't she a vision in white? Maybe the most beautiful lady of the night. Everything
is right: the dress, the hair, the make up, the jewelry... Everything!

Nije li Milla vizija u bijelom? Možda čak najljepša žena večeri. Sve je odlično:
haljina, kosa, šminka, nakit... Sve!

Rooney Mara in Givenchy
If you're following my Facebook page, then you know I've been posting Rooney Mara's
outfit pics quite a lot lately. This girl's style is so unique, fierce and special. I just love it!
The dress she wore to the Oscars is stunning, and fits her really well. Nevertheless,
I'm not sure about the hairdo. I think it's a bit too rough, the short black bangs
don't really go with this white romatnic dress. It would be much better
if her bangs were combed backwards as the rest of the hair is.

Ako pratite moju Facebook stranicu, onda znate da sam zadnje vrijeme dosta tamo
stavljala slike outfita Rooney Mare. Stil ove cure je tako jedinstven, hrabar
i poseban. Obožavam! Haljina koju je nosila na dodjelu Oscara je prekrasna,
i odlično joj stoji. Unatoč tome, nisam baš sigurna da li je frizura bila
najbolji pogodak. Mislim da je pregruba, kratke crne šiške baš
i ne idu sa ovom bijelom romantičnom haljinom. Bilo bi puno bolje
da su šiške začešljanje otraga kao i ostatak kose.

Viola Davis in Vera Wang
Hmmm, I'm just not sure what to think about this dress. Actually the dress is beautiful
(especially the color!), but I don't know if it really fits her well. The bottom part
is amazing, but the upper part squeezes her breasts too much, in my opinion.
Something is just not right in the bust area...

Hmmm, nisam sigurna što da mislim o ovoj haljini. Zapravo haljina je predivna
(naročito boja!), ali ne znam da li joj baš dobro pristaje. Donji dio je
nevjerojatan, ali gornji joj dio, po mom mišljenju, previše stiska grudi.
Nešto jednostavno nije dobro u predjelu grudi i dekoltea...

Michell Williams in Louis Vuitton
Definitely one of my favorites. I think Michelle was the only one last night who
chose this coral color, right? She know what's trendy... And also this
peplum style seems to be hot right now. I saw a couple of peplum style
dresses at the Oscars. Anyhow, this is pure perfection to me.
____________________
Prijevod:
Definitivno jedan od mojih favorita. Mislim da je Michelle jedina prošle noći
nosila ovu koralju boju, zar ne? Ona očito zna što je in... I također izgleda
da je ovaj peplum stil jako trendy sada. Vidjela sam na ovoj dodjeli
nekoliko takvih haljina. Uglavnom, ovo je čisto savršenstvo za mene.

Jennifer Lopez in Zuhair Murad
I generally don't like this designer, and this is just another proof why. His dresses
are usually VERY sparkly, full of little crystals, and they often look tacky.
I love J.lo, and I hate to say this, but I don't like this dress. She can
do so much better. These strypes, and the weird cut-outs aren't doing
anything well for her. I don't like the material either. It's not terrible,
but I don't like it. I don't understand why somebody, who has access to
all the designers of the world, would choose Zuhair Murad??
___________________
Prijevod:
Općenito ne volim ovoga dizajnera, i ovo je samo još jedan dokaz zašto. Njegove
haljine su obično JAKO svjetlucave, pune malih kristala, cirkona, i često
izgledaju kičasto i ''cajkasto''. Stvarno volim J.Lo, i nije mi drago što moram
ovo reći, ali ne sviđa mi se haljina. Ona to može puno bolje. Ove pruge, i čudni izrezi
ne rade ništa dobro za nju. Ne sviđa mi se ni materijal. Nije strašno,
ali mi se ne sviđa. Samo mi nije jasno zašto bi netko, tko ima dostupne sve dizajnere
svijeta, izabrao baš Zuhaira Murada??

Emma Stone in Giambattista Valli Haute Couture
A lot of people will probably think this dress is too similar to the dress Nicole Kidman
wore to the Oscars a couple of years ago. It is quite similar, but it's also
different in a lot of ways: this dress is more flowy, and the red is much
darker. The bow is probably the part that reminds us all of the Balenciaga
dress that Nicole wore the most, but I actually don't care.
I think Emma looked gorgeous, and the dress is pure perfection.
______________________
Prijevod:
Mnogi će vjerojatno misliti da je ova haljina preslična haljini koju je Nicole Kidman
nosila na dodjelu Oscara prije par godina. Prilično je slična, ali je i različita
na puno načina: ova haljina je puno lepršavija, i crvena boja je tamnija. Mašna
je vjerojatno dio koji nas sve najviše podsjeća na Balenciaginu haljinu
koju je Nicole nosila, ali mene to uopće ne smeta.
Mislim da je Emma izgledala prekrasno, i haljina je čisto savršenstvo.

Penelope Cruz in Giorgio Armani
I think this is a really weird choice for Penelope. In my opinion, this dress actually
made her look older. The color is this odd shade of blue, the hairdo is wrong,
and what really bothers me is this fabric going across her chest. This dress
would be more appropriate for someone like Meryl Streep or Helen
Mirren, but definitely not Penelope.
_____________________
Prijevod:
Mislim daje ovo bio stvarno čudan izbor za Penelope. Po mom mišljenju, ova haljina ju
je postarala. Boja je ta neka čudna nijansa plave, frizura je kriva, i ono što
me najviše smeta je ova tkanina koja joj ide preko prsa. Bez toga bi bilo
puno bolje. Ova haljina bi bila primjerenija za nekoga poput Meryl Streep
ili Helen Mirren, definitvno ne Penelope.

Natalie Portman in Christian Dior Haute Couture Vintage
I read all over the internet that there are a llot of people who hated this dress, and
I just don't understand what's so terrible about it. First of all, I'm glad when somebody
chooses a vintage gown for the Academy Awards, and also I think the
dress is absolutely lovely. I don't think it's appropriate for the Oscars though,
it's a bit too simple. I can imagine this dress at the SAG awards, or maybe
even the Golden Globes, but not the Oscars. Too plain in my opinion.
______________________________
Prijevod:
Čitala sam na puno mjesta na internetu kako ima puno ljudi kojima je užasna ova haljina,
i ja jednostavno ne razumijem što je tu tako strašno. Kao prvo, drago mi je kad
netko izabere vintage haljinu za Oscare, i također mislim da je haljina baš ljupka.
Ali također mislim da nije primjerena za dodjelu Oscara, malo je prejednostavna.
Mogu ju zamisliti na SAG nagradama, možda čak i na Zaltnim Globusima,
ali nikako na Oscarima. Preobična je po mom mišljenju.

Sandra Bullock in Marchesa
One of the biggest fashion misses of the night in my opinion. I don't even know why,
I just don't like it at all. The biggest issue is that it makes her torso
look very bulky and shapeless, and we all know Sandra
doesn't look like that.

Prijevod:
Po mom mišljenju jedan od najvećih promašaja večeri. Ne znam ni sama zašto,
jednostavno mi se uopće ne sviđa. Najveći problem je što joj ta haljina
torzo čini zdepastim i bez forme, a svi znamo da Sandra
tako ne izgleda.

Meryl Streep in Lanvin
I think Meryl looked stunning last night. I love how she wore a golden dress, and
then she won an Oscar which is also golden. This dress is timeless, I love the
draping, and I think it would look good on most body shapes and most
women no matter what their age is.
________________________
Prijevod:
Mislim da je Meryl prošlu noć izgledala predivno. Super mi je kako je obukla
zlatnu haljinu, i onda je osvojila Oscara koji je isto zlatni. Ova haljina je
bezvremenska, obožavam ove nabore koji lijepo padaju, i mislim da
bi izgledala dobro na većini žena neovisno o konfekcijskom
broju i godinama.

Kate Mara in Jack Guisso Couture
I don't know who she is, but this is pure blush perfection!

Prijevod:
Ne znam tko je ona, ali ovo je čisto puderasto savršenstvo!

Cameron Diaz in Gucci
I don't know what to think about this dress. I kind of like it, but I really don't
like the upper part. It's so simple, it look like plain cheap jersey.
I'm not sure...

Prijevod:
Ne znam što da mislim o ovoj haljini. Recimo da mi se sviđa, ali stvarno mi je
gornji dio poprilično užasan. Tako je jednostavan, izgleda kao onaj najobičniji
jeftini džersej.
Nisam sigurna oko ovoga...

Melissa Leo in Reem Acra
This is just wrong and weird.
