And the Oscar Goes To...

As a self-proclaimed film buff, I've been geeking out about the Oscars since I was a kid. While I know the awards are not the be-all and end-all of fine film-making and the system has its issues, I can't resist a glamorous event dedicated to movies and magnificent dresses. Here's what I wore for a local viewing party. Most of my cocktail dresses either don't suit me or don't fit me anymore, so I improvised with all-black separates.

Top: Necessary Objects
Trousers: Chelsea 28
Jacket: Straight to Hell
Shoes: Franco Sarto
Earrings: Vintage
