With the depressingly lame and basic Oscar nominations, I thought I’d leave these here for you to enjoy. I usually prefer Lupita in Tom Ford but she wore this leathery Michael Kors number to the Critics Choice Awards and it is the biz. She looks friggin’ gorgeous!
Awesome post! Keep up the great work! 🙂
