Sparkling Nudes
Glittering nude was the color of the night! Celebs like Julie Delpy (in Jenny Packham), Cate Blanchett (in Armani), and Sarah Paulson (in Elie Saab) all sparkled in resplendent nude.
Sideswept Waves
We're glad to see the rain didn't keep stars like Kate Hudson, Sandra Bullock or Jessica Biel from wearing their hair down in pretty sideswept waves.
Strapless
Forget the sleeves! It was all about the strapless dress. Jessica Biel, Jennifer Lawrence and Amy Adams all showed off their necklines in a gorgeous strapless gown.
Dark Lips
There weren't a whole lot of bright red or pink pouts. Instead, stars like Kerry Washington, Margot Robbie and Cristin Milioti all went for a dark lip.
Plunging Necklines
Something that never fails to raise a few eyebrows is a plunging neckline. This year Kate Hudson, Charlize Theron, and Lupita Nyong'o nailed the look and thus caused our arches to go up a few inches (in a good way).
Green
Green isn't your typical go-to red carpet dress color, so we're glad to see that celebs like Viola Davis, Louise Roe and Idina Menzel all opted for shades of the non-traditional hue.
Statement Drop Earrings
All awards season statement earrings have been the major jewelry trend, and the 2014 Oscars were no different. We saw super-size bling hanging just above the shoulders of Olivia Wilde, Cate Blanchett and Amy Adams.
