BEST EVER: ACADEMY AWARDS FASHION

The Academy Awards are less than a week away and movie critics everywhere are predicting this year's winners and losers. I am a fan of some of the nominees this year (Her, Gravity, Cate Blanchett, Lupita Nyong'O, Jared Leto), but I'm way more excited about the night's FASHION winners and losers. Are you shallow like me? Do you skip the actual show and only watch the red carpet arrivals? Below are a few of my favorite looks from years past. What are your all-time favorite Oscar gowns?

STYLIST CRUSH: GINNY BRANCH

I started reading My Favorite Color is Shiny six or seven years ago when Ginny Branch was merely a shopgirl at Marc Jacobs in New York City. Today she's an Atlanta based prop stylist with an impressive list of clients including Martha Stewart Weddings, Anthropologie, Cooking Light, Country Living and GAP to name a few. Take a peek at some of her work below and visit her website and blog for more lovely images.
