Save|Spend|Splurge: Oscars Edition

As we mentioned before, we love awards season and the bridal fashion it inspires. So I thought we'd play a little game I like to call, Save|Spend|Splurge, with some of our favorite Oscar fashion trends from this past weekend. For each trend we hunted down 3 possible options in varied price ranges so you can bring red carpet style to your big day no matter the budget.

Peplum
A trend I was unsure of at first, peplum's flirty charms have grown on me and we should all get used to it by now as it's shown up and been reinvented on the runway for several seasons now. On Sunday night, Jennifer Lawrence [Dior] and Julia Roberts [Givenchy] rocked this feminine silhouette that is also perfect for a fashion-forward bride.

Detailed Bodice
The perfect blend of a sweetheart neckline and corset style top, this silhouette is most flattering on smaller chested women with an "embrace what you've got!" attitude. Cristin Milioti dawned this figure flattering Reem Acra gown and we've got to give a shout-out to her make up artist for that last second bold lip decision. I'm a sucker for a bold lip. Good choice!

Plunging Neckline
I couldn't talk about Oscars fashion without including Best Actress in a Supporting Role winner and popular vote for best dressed, Lupita Nyong'o. Her custom"Nairobi blue" Prada gown stole the show with its simple a-line silhouette and plunging neckline. For all you daring brides, take note, this is one of the best examples of plunging neckline done with tasteful elegance.

::Sigh:: So much beauty we could go on and on.

We couldn't have dreamed up a better night of fashion to end awards season.
