It's Oscars time!

Finally! It's here! The Oscars are here!
And with them they arrived the bestest and waited outfits of the season!
Wow! Last night there were such  amazing dresses that I don't know where to start!
Btw, the main colors of the event were red with a touch of black and white; but of course there were someone who dared more with some different color.

Let's start from the big color: red!
In my opinion, with this dress, Rosamund Pike redeem all the previous "not-so-wow" outfits!
This  Givenchy red embroided dress was amazing! very elegant but modern at the same time. ROsamunf completed her outfit with Lorraine Schwartz jewels.

Now, its' Dakota Johnson' turn! Oh Anastasia you got it!
Dakota chose a bright red Saint Laurent with a jewelry and sparkly strap, all matching with Forevermark diamonds.

Here's another woman who completely won! Behati Prinsloo aka Adam Levine's super gorgeous wife and Victoria's secret angel. She wore a stunning dress by Armani Prive matching the tuxedo of her handsome husband.

Anna Kendrik chose a wonderful custom Thakoon dress with Brian Atwood shoes and Norman Silverman jewelry. She's lovely!

Lupita Nyong'o wore a white, open back custom gown by Calvin Klein with Nicholas Kirkwood shoes. The dress must weight a lot with all those magnificent pearls all over! But who cares.. it's fashion!

 
Jamie Chung remind me of a cute little princess with her Yanina Couture's gown. So sparkly and wispy! Love it!

Margot Robbie opted for a beautiful classic black dress. She wore a  Saint Laurent dress and Van Cleef & Arpels Jewelry.

 

Emma Stone chose perfectly like always! She never got it wrong recently! She always wear the perfect dress for the occasion.
Last night she wore a lively and sparkly lemon green dress by one of my favourite designer: Elie Saab.

But my favourite outfit of the night were the dresses wore by Chrissy Teigen, Sienna Miller and Zoe Saldana. They completely centred the point!
Chrissy Teigen wore a pastel light blue Zuhair Murad  dress with an amazing slit.
Loved her so much!

Sienna Miller enhanced a creation of one of the biggest and one of my favourite designer, the recently passed away and icon Oscar de La Renta. She wore a super elegant but simple black and blue dress by Oscar de La Renta with  Prada shoes, a Christian Louboutin bag and Forevermark jewelry. So chic!

But the best dressed to me was the beautiful Zoe Saldana. She was beautiful! I mean, she had twins not even two months ago! Look how she perfectly  fit that dress! 

She wore a custom Atelier Versace dress with Versace shoes and Neil Lane jewelry. Amazing!

I would die to look like her in that dress!

Here it is a little close up to a woman's best friends: diamonds! And not any diamonds but Harry Winston's 85 carats diamonds which Karolina Kurkova wore beautifully last night with her pale pink dress. Literally a dream!

Enough about fashion! Here's the winner of the Oscars 2015!
Eddie Redmayne won for the the leading actor, Julianne Moore for the leading actress and JK Simmons and Patricia Arquette for the best supporting actor and actress respectively. Congratulations!

 That's all!

Girls' Revolution

Recently there has been a lot of reconsideration about women. I think that something good is happening in our society and it is amazing.

I'm 23 years old girl and I grew up with a certain consideration about me as a woman. Yes, I am a woman but I don't need to be submissive or docile just because men said so. I've just said men because we have to admit that in the last 50-60 years, our society was pretty much a men's centered one, in fact my dad has a different view of a woman being a 65 year-old-man grew up with a male chauvinist thought about women. Even if I often disagree with my dad about the role of a woman in our society he always pushed and encouraged me to be the strongest and most independent woman in the world.
I'm glad that my parents always encoraged me as a woman, because in this crazy world a lot of girls and women can't say the same.

For example, almost 3 months ago, during a lecture at the university, we talked about Malala Yousafzai, a pakistani girl who fought for her education, but she's not an ordinary girl, because she was the youngest winner of a Nobel prize for peace. A young girl of 12-13 years old who decided to begin to write about the condition of her country on a blog, soon became a icon for every girl in the world to whom education is denied because she's a girl. Malala was shoot in the head three times for being an activist for female education but she survived and she's still carry on her campaign against discrimation of genders for education. I have to say that at the beginning I didn't know much about Malala, but as soon as I discovered her story, she became such a great inspiration for me and I told myself that if I ever had children, and those children will refuse to go to school I'll tell them the story of Malala, who was shoot just because she fought for her and every girl's education.

Another recent example of reconsideration of women was at the latest Oscars when the winner of the best supporting actress award gave a really inspiring speech. Patricia Arquette, who played the role of a mother in Boyhood, says:

 which is not important just for USA but for the entire world.

Then, we have the Queen, Beyonce, who definied herself feminist. When I was younger and I thought about that word, I would said that a feminist was a woman who believe in femal superiority and hate of men, but today I agree with Beyonce who said



"A Feminist is the person who believes in the social, political and economic equality of the sexes"

 

A really great and meaningful example is also Emma Watson and her UN's campaign "HeForShe", which had an enormous success! Maybe she was the first woman in the last year who begin this attitude's change.
She said:

and I was really surprised to see how many famous and non-famous people, especially men, joined her cause. It was incredible and everything I was thinking about when I saw that, was maybe it's really changing something!

 

The last example I want to talk about is Ashley Graham, a plus sized model. Right now she's becoming very popular because she's the icon of the beauy change. Finally she introduced on a really high level another type of beauty, out of the fashion imposed stereotypes. She's tall and not skinny and in my opinion she embodies my vision of a normal woman, because most of the women bodies are like hers not like the "normal" models' ones. She was the first plus sized model to make an appearance in Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit, which is famous fot its skinny and amazing models, but she was also able to create a lingerie line for women with curve, because she heard that most of the time these "plus sized" women don't even find their right size in the "normal" lines.
I like her because she's standing for a body revolution!

 

Moreover, a couple of weeks ago, it took place Beijing20, the UN's women conference which celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Beijing Declaration and World Conference on Women. They had the opportunity to discuss the change of the role of women and gender equality but most of all, the conference had a positive response also from a lot of celebrities.
I believe that this is the begin of a new vision of women and genders which is really important for the development of our future society.
