See Which Stars Nailed (and Failed) the Oscars After Party Dress Change

Kate Puhala
Feb 23, 2015

Color, embellishment and lots of leg defined the best dressed set at the 2015 Oscars. We even saw some stars top their personal best on last night’s red carpet (Lupita’s 6,000 pearl-strong embellished dress almost made us completely forget about last year’s duck egg blue). So, when it came time for Hollywood’s finest to change up their looks after the show for the Vanity Fair Oscar Party, we had high hopes that they’d take their sartorial statement making to the next level. Surprisingly though, stars set an ultra classy tone for the night in blacks, whites and neutrals and to be honest, we’re torn over the results. On one hand, the more formal feel actually elevated some of their main show style missteps (we’re looking at you, Chloe Grace Moretz). But on the other, without the flirty, pop-the-champagne details that we expect from party-ready looks, it felt like a bit of a snoozefest. Sound off below on which stars you think nailed — and failed — the Oscars after party dress change.

1. Lupita Nyong’o: Lupita stuck with all-over embellishments in a second beaded Calvin Klein Collection gown in a nude metallic hue. The texture and sheen makes it a head-turner in any setting, though we do miss the pop of color we’re used to getting from the Oscar winner. Let’s just say we’re dreaming of the same gown in a glowing daisy yellow. (Photos via Jason Merritt/Pascal Le Segretain/Getty)

2. Marion Cotillard: The feminine whimsey of Marion’s polka dot Dior gown carried over on her flouncy Giambattista Valli dress, which felt like the most party-ready of the post-Oscars costume changes. The flared drop-waist silhouette was striking, the glitz felt fun and best of all, there was color. (Photos via Jason Merritt/Pascal Le Segretain/Getty)

3. Felicity Jones: While Felicity stuck with the same high neckline, there was a major difference between her Alexander McQueen ball gown and post-show Saint Laurent frock (no, not just the color): the latter didin’t wear her. With sweetly swept bangs and bling to match her embellished collar, the figure-hugging dress felt fresh, even a little edgy — look we’d love to see more of on the Oscar nominee. (Photos via Jason Merritt/Pascal Le Segretain/Getty)

4. Naomi Watts: Let’s get one thing straight: we LOVE a pantsuit on the red carpet. But given we’ve seen so many great ones this award show season (think: Jennifer Aniston at the Critics’ Choice Awards and Emma Stone at the Golden Globes) — and the fact that Naomi Watts killed it in a trendy silver bib top Armani gown complete with black bandeau — her all-white Armani suit was a bit of a let down. We say save it for a more #Girlboss-appropriate moment. (Photos via Frazer Harrison/Pascal Le Segretain/Getty)

5. Chloe Grace Moretz: There weren’t a ton of things that could save Chloe Grace Moritz’s washed-out, weighted down Miu Miu dress (definitely not that pose). So, we were delighted to see the young starlet change into an airy, boho-style frock complete with floral lace details and gorgeous balloon sleeves. (Photos via Jason Merritt/Pascal Le Segretain/Getty)

6. Jennifer Lopez: Jennifer Lopez’s outfit got even more Jennifer Lopez for the Oscars after party, sticking with the deep plunge of her massive Elie Saab Haute Couture gown, but going sheer nearly everywhere else in elegant yet revealing Zuhair Murad Couture. Just look at that smize: she is feeling it — and so are we. (Photos via Jason Merritt/Pascal Le Segretain/Getty)

7. Solange Knowles: We hate to compare the Knowles sisters, but we can’t help but think Solange leaned a little too Beyoncé in her post-Oscars gown that felt almost identical to Bey’s Michael Costello Grammys gown. We know Solange can rock white like nobody’s business (have you seen her wedding photos?), but this particular gown just didn’t feel funky enough for the sartorial statement maker. (Photos via Jason Merritt/Pascal Le Segretain/Getty)

8. Jessica Chastain: The only thing that could top Jessica’s va-va-voom Oscars dress was this: the embellished frock she wore to the after party was designed by H&M. For real… and it gets better. As part of the H&M Conscious Collection, the dress was made from sustainable materials and will be available to purchase from the Swedish retailer, presumable at a non A-lister price. (Photos via Jason Merritt/Pascal Le Segretain/Getty)

9. Lady Gaga: Gaga brought the drama to both carpets, which ended up playing out in a sort of good versus evil sartorial showdown. In terms of what worked better, we’re sticking with her debut Oscars look soley because there’s no one who could pull it off but Gaga. We could totally see Mila Kunis, Angelina Jolie or Karlie Kloss working that inky black number, but who else would be caught on the carpet with those red gloves and paper doll sleeves? (Photos via Jason Merritt/Pascal Le Segretain/Getty)

10. Keira Knightley: This award show season has solidified Keira as the red carpet’s real life angel in ethereal gown after ethereal gown, and this time around in a flowing embroidered Valentino number, it was no different. That’s why her after party dress left our jaws on the floor. The navy velvet Valentino version was a complete departure that created an unexpected and totally memorable red carpet moment.

8 Surprising Red Carpet Couples We Totally Forgot About

When any red carpet rolls around, there are certain couples we can pretty much always count on to show up looking cuter than ever. John Krasinski and Emily Blunt, Eddie Redmayne and his wife Hannah Bagshawe, Chrissy Teigen and John Legend… But anyone who’s ever seen a tabloid knows that celebrity couples often have a relatively short lifespan. And so when we decided to look back at the red carpet couples of the past, we rediscovered a whole bunch of duos we totally forgot ever existed. These stars are incredible on their own, but even more powerful together. Scroll on down to take a look at all the now-Hollywood exes who made us do a double take.

Juliette Lewis + Brad Pitt

Vinnie Zuffante/Archive Photos/Getty Images

We tend to think of Angelina and Jennifer as Brad’s two big loves, but before them (and Gwyneth) came Juliette Lewis. The two dated for four years when they were both on the cusp of total stardom. These two just might be tied with Johnny Depp and Kate Moss as the most ’90s couple that’s ever existed.

Michael Jackson + Brooke Shields

Michael Ochs Archive/Getty Images

A budding supermodel and a global pop sensation? It’s kind of a Hollywood match made in heaven, just like Brooke's curls. That dress on the other hand? We’re not so sure.

Matthew Broderick + Jennifer Grey

Vinnie Zuffante/TriStar/Getty Images

As much as we’d like to believe Sarah Jessica Parker was Matthew Broderick’s one and only, this couple makes a lot of sense. The two were both the main characters in epic teen ’80s movies – we’ll just forget about the fact that they played brother and sister in one of them…

Jake Gylenhaal + Reese Witherspoon

Pascal Le Segretain/Getty Images

Dang, why didn’t this couple work out again? Oh right, probably because that much wonderfulness packed into one couple would make the world explode. But they sure did look good together!

Drew Barrymore + Corey Feldman

Vinnie Zuffante/Getty Images

Feldman once said that his first date with Drew was arranged by her mother when she was 10 and he was 14, because apparently Barrymore had a huge crush on him. They later dated briefly (this time for real) in 1989, when Drew was a teenager. Unfortunately, he was heavily into drugs during that time and she was trying to stay sober after multiple stints in rehab, so it didn’t last long.

Winona Ryder + Christian Slater

New World Pictures/Getty Images

Here’s to hoping this relationship ended a little more amicably than it did for their Heathers characters.

Julia Roberts + Kiefer Sutherland

Vinnie Zuffante/Getty Images

It was supposed to be one of the biggest Hollywood weddings ever, and then all of a sudden, Julia called it off. Tragic. At least we have this red carpet moment to remember the couple by.

Stacy Keibler + George Clooney

Jason Merritt/Getty Images

Now that Amal is in the picture, it’s hard to imagine George with anyone else. But before that British vision of elegance came Stacy Keibler, the stunning professional wrestler and George’s beau for two years.

20 Party Games Better Than Cards Against Humanity

Party on! Game nights are the best nights, at least in our opinions. Seriously, what's more fun than sitting around the table playing a game, drinking a cocktail or two and laughing with friends?! We'd totally take that over a night sweating (and very awkwardly dancing) at the club.

We know you've made it through that Cards Against Humanity deck too many times to count, so refresh your adult game night stash with some of the best new party games around.

Game of Phones

Uncommon Goods

This techy card game prompts you and your friends to compete in smartphone-based tasks. With assignments ranging from “Find your best #selfie” to “Create an emoji masterpiece,” you’re guaranteed belly laughs and conversation starters galore. Just like with Cards Against Humanity, each round has a judge that picks the winner, so get your phone stacked with game changers now.

hella awk-ward Card Game

Shopify

If you want to spark real conversations with your guests, this is the game for you. By the end of this game, you’ll be surrounded by plenty of new pals. Play by drawing a card and answering the prompt to get to know friends and strangers alike on a deeper level.

What Do You Meme?

Amazon

This is the perfect game for anyone who has spent way too much time on the internet. Match funny captions with well-known internet memes (a rotating judge picks the best one) to create an afternoon or evening of hilarity.

Exploding Kittens Party Card Game

Amazon

This card game is like Russian Roulette “for people who are into kittens and explosions and laser beams and sometimes goats.” Count us in.

My Ex [A Deck of Conversation Starters]

Amazon

Gather your closest BFFs and spend the night with some good ol’ trash talking (therapeutically, of course). You’ll definitely find out who had the craziest ex. Gather friends that are down for the drama and start by pulling a card. Some of the topics you’ll fill-in-the-blank include: 1. The biggest red flag. 2. What is your ex up to now? 3. The worst rebound.

WHAT DO YOU MEME? for The Girls

Shopify

Grab your girlfriends and stir the pot with this hilarious card game. To play, whoever has the most Instagram followers goes first and rolls the die. “Whichever side of the die lands face-up, take the top card from the corresponding color deck. Read it aloud to the group & perform whatever action is on the card,” the instructions read. “Some cards involve just that player, some require the whole group. The player to their left then rolls the die & the game continues like this. Every winning card gets you a point. 1 Card = 1 Point. The player with the most cards at the end wins!”

Say Anything

Walmart

If you’re looking to reeeally get to know your friends, this is the game for you and your group (um, and maybe an invite to the new person you’ve been dating is in order). By reading questions and providing answers, you’ll quickly and creatively get inside the mind of all your party guests fast.

BAD CHOICES - The Have You Ever? Game + After Dark Edition Set

Amazon

You’ll really get to know the other party guests with this game. This might not be one to play with your new coworkers or mother-in-law!

To play, each player will draw six cards. “When it's your turn, choose one of your six question cards, then ask it to the player you think is most likely to answer YES. If they say YES, you get to discard your card. If they say NO you have to keep the card and try to use it again later,” the instructions read. With Skip Cards, Draw +1, Draw +2, and ALL PLAY cards, there's a surprising amount of strategy. The player who discards all of their cards first becomes the winner.

The Game of Things

Amazon

This provocative game will leave your jaw on the floor from the hilarious, creative and outrageous things your friends say. Simply by drawing topic cards like “Things a chimp thinks about when he sees you at the zoo,” responses are sure to be out of this world. After everyone writes down a response, and the best part starts — you all guess who said what. Let the finger pointing begin.

What’s Yours Like?

Walmart

Tell it like it is and you’ll excel at this one. Players have to guess words based off of creative word clues after asking the question, “What’s yours like?” Seriously, we wanna know.

If You Know You Know IYKYK - The Question Card Game

Amazon

Who knows each other best? This card game will (literally) put everyone’s cards on the table.

Getting started and playing this card game is super simple. A rotating judge asks the group a question about themselves from each of the three levels (indicated on the chosen card). Then, everyone chooses their answer. If you guess the judge's answer correctly, you get a point. The player with the most points wins.

That’s What She Said

Amazon

Are you basically Michael Scott from The Office? Any sucker for jokes and innuendos will love this saucy game.

Amazon

 You and your friends can put your trust to the test by sharing your deepest, most embarrassing secrets in this revealing game.

Secret Confessions Game- Adult Version

Amazon

Get ready to laugh the night away with this far too funny game. Each group member will take turns reading the cards’ prompts. With each prompt, every player will answer “yes” or “no.”

The Voting Game

Amazon

 In this game, instead of voting for the funniest answer, you vote for the player each card seems to describe. Talk about finding out who your real friends are.

Drawing Without Dignity

Amazon

It’s part Cards Against Humanity, part Pictionary. If you have friends who are particularly good artists (or even if they’re not), this game will bring you hours of fun.

Catan Strategy Board Game

Target

Like a medieval monopoly, full of knights, peasants, robbers and everything prehistoric. This game is focused around building settlements and protecting your land.

Relative Insanity

Walmart

Created by comedian Jeff Foxworthy, this game is based around familial interactions gone wrong with a Cards Against Humanity style of playing.

Influencers in the Wild

Amazon

If you follow the popular Instagram account, then you can probably guess the basics of this board game. Go places, gain followers and get famous to win this pop culture game.

We hope you've enjoyed this round-up of our favorite adult card games, and even if Cards Against Humanity is now somehow worth $500 Million your memories from these nights will always be priceless!

16 Oscar Party Dessert Ideas For Your Hollywood-Themed Soirée

The only thing that can improve our Oscars party is dessert. Little sweets are the bomb, probably because they trick us into feeling less guilty than we do after eating a huge slice of triple-chocolate layer cake (not that there's anything wrong with treating yourself once in a while). From colorful popcorn to chic cake pops, check out these 16 desserts that are just as gorgeous as the stars themselves.

Popcorn Cupcakes

Nope, those aren’t actually mini tubs of popcorn. How adorable are these cupcakes?! We can’t wait to start making these for every movie night ever. (via ‘A Casarella)

Walk of Fame Brownies

Daydream about having your own star on the Walk of Fame while eating a brownie version. So simplistic, yet so perfect. (via Sweet Designs)

Pink Champagne Cake Pops

These dainty champagne cake pops are perfect for a mini celebration when your favorite actor wins. Check out that edible glitter! (via Sweetapolita)

Cookie Awards

These are definitely the best statuette cookies we've ever seen. Add a bit of sparkle to them or don't! Either way, they'll definitely feel at home on your Oscar night. (via Bakerella)

Mini Coconut Cream Pies

Give your get together a tropical feel with some bite-sized coconut cream lovelies. These are easy as pie to make. (Pun intended.) (via Country Cleaver)

Organic Macarons

What's that you say? You want something tasty and classic? Oh, these macarons are the perfect pick. (via Kristi Murphy)

Caramel Apple Trifles

How beautiful are these? Not only are trifles a perfect way to get a bunch of flavors into one dish, but this one features one of America's favorite combinations: apple and caramel. (via Bakers Royale)

White Chocolate Tuxedo Cheesecake

As Barney Stinson would say, suit up! Or rather, tux up! These cute cheesecakes are just small enough to for you to enjoy the creamy flavors of cheesecake, but not get sick of it. (via Bakers Royale)

No-Bake Tiramisu Parfait

Having a hard time staying up to watch the end of the show? No problem: just eat one of these mini Tiramisu parfaits. (via Hummingbird High)

Vanilla Bean Panna Cotta with Lemon

This easy panna cotta recipe'll have you feeling like Giada in no time. (via Ella Claire)

Awards Night Cookies

While watching the red carpet arrivals, we can't help but feel a bit jealous that we don't get to dress up and strike a pose with the stars. But what you can do is make these super well-dressed cookies. It's sort of the same, right? (via Sweet Sugarbelle)

Cake Batter Popcorn

Popcorn is the movie food, so it only makes sense for it to make an appearance on Oscar night. Better yet, a sprinkle-filled appearance! (via Tasty Kitchen)

French 75 Jell-o Shots

Who said Jell-o shots couldn't be elegant and pretty too? This is a great way to occupy your fam during that acceptance speech that just never seems to end. (via Bakers Royale)

Pie Pops

Hey, nobody said dessert pops were only for cake! We love our apples (hey, anything to keep the doctor away), so we might as well incorporate them into our party as well. (via Zoom Yummy)

Every Holiday Movie You Can Stream On Netflix Starting Today

The holidays are here! Well, kind of. Thanksgiving isn’t until November 28 but as far as I’m concerned, November 1 is the day the festivities can begin. I’m pulling out my holiday candles, Christmas PJ’s, and even my How the Grinch Stole Christmas vinyl to make the dreary seasonal blues a little more cheerful. And a huge part of getting into the spirit is stacking up the perfect holiday movie marathon. Thankfully Netflix already has a bunch of holiday titles coming out over the next few weeks. Here are the best (new!!) holiday movies and specials coming to Netflix starting November 1.

Dinner Time Live With David Chang: Holiday Edition — On Netflix Now Until December 10

Adam Rose/Netflix

Nothing says the holidays like tons of delicious meals, and Chef David Chang is cooking some amazing food for his celebrity friends — and he's doing it all live.

It's almost time for Virgin River season 6, which means we're getting closer to the ultimate cozy TV show. I mean, just look at those twinkly lights and pine trees in this preview image! It gives me the same exact feeling as drinking a mug of hot cocoa. This year, we're getting closer to Mel and Jack’s wedding, and confronting some serious secrets and drama along the way. This might not count as a Netflix holiday movie but I couldn't NOT include it!!!

Bob Mahoney/Netflix

Upgrade Your Thanksgiving With A Crescent-Roll Cornucopia

This edible crescent-roll cornucopia is our way of making a normal cheese boardmore festive — and definitely more fun — during the holiday season. Our go-to this time of year is a massive cheese plate that can stand alone and be the main attraction, or the starter for a larger meal. Press on for the surprisingly easy steps to braid a breaded cornucopia.

Chris Andre

Materials + Tools:

  • 1 roll of tin foil
  • 2 packages of crescent rolls
  • 1 egg (for egg wash before cornucopia goes into the oven), optional

Chris Andre

Instructions:

Start by sculpting tin foil into the shape of a cornucopia (it looks like a cone with an upturned tail). Pro tip: Lightly pack tin foil so it's easier to remove later from your baked cornucopia. Crescent rolls should be buttery enough that this shouldn't be difficult.

Chris Andre

Your tin foil mold should look a little something like this.

Chris Andre

Pop open the crescent rolls and cut the triangles into strips. Pinch together the ends of strips to make strips longer.

Chris Andre

Braid crescent roll strips. You can make these as fancy as you want. Not a braiding pro? Skip this step and leave those strips alone.

Chris Andre

Wrap tin foil cornucopia with braids/strips. Make sure you cover all the tin foil. Leave a little wiggle room at the opening of the cornucopia, so that when you’re done baking you can pull some of that tin foil out.

Chris Andre

Use any extra dough to cover the bottom of your cornucopia. Pinch the sides and anchor those braids/strips in.

Chris Andre

Brush on egg wash before placing your cornucopia in the oven. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes. Take out of oven and cover spots of cornucopia that are already golden brown with extra tin foil. Bake for another 20 minutes at 250 degrees Fahrenheit.

Chris Andre

Let it cool down until it’s easy to handle. Remove tin foil.

Chris Andre

Place cornucopia in corner of your cheese plate. Arrange cheese on your serving tray.

Chris Andre

Add crackers — we like to have two or three options.

Chris Andre

Don’t forget to fill up your cornucopia. It's called "the horn of plenty" for a reason. Fill with fresh fruit like grapes, apples, and pears.

Chris Andre

Add nuts like walnuts and pistachios to fill in any empty spaces. Garnish with fresh herbs like rosemary and sage to finish it off.

Chris Andre

Voilà! Invite over your friends, open a bottle of wine, and dig in!

Chris Andre

A cornucopia cheese board will become your new favorite holiday tradition.

Show us your crescent-roll cornucopias on Instagram and check out our baking classes (and our Easy Thanksgiving Desserts piece) for more holiday food inspo!
