The Academy Awards are always filled with glamour, and this year was no exception. While dresses and designer names were the talk of the internet during & after the show, the most chat-worthy sightings to me had little to do with fabrics or prestige. It was pixie cuts and backwards necklaces that kept my attention.
With the cut cropping up more and more, 2013 is definitely the year of the pixie. Nominees for best pixie include Hallie Berry (a staple on the short-hair scene) and Anne Hathaway, with the winning look going to stunning Charlize Theron.
As for the backwards necklace – Jennifer Lawrence wore this look perfectly and, in my opinion, was one of the best dressed of the evening. I loved how simple this necklace presented in the front, helping to show off her dress, while the long drape in the back added an elegant twist. While I didn’t love Anne’s dress {Did you hear there was a @HathawayNipple Twitter account created? Yikes.} I did love her statement necklace and how the back helped to bring emphasis to the v-shape of her dress line.
What was your favorite look or trend from the Oscars?

I’m a long hair girl myself, but those that can rock the pixie sure do it well.
I heard about the “nipple”! So funny!
The backwards necklace trend is amazing- I loved Jennifers!
The pixie looks great on some people. The backwards necklaces are beautiful!
i loved the osar de la renta gowns, especially amy adams one 🙂 and backwards necklaces are cool xxxx
I love a good pixie cut but on the right people! No chance it would ever look good on me!
I love that hair cut but Im afraid to give it a try. The backwards necklace is a great idea.

I have a feeling the backwards necklace thing is going to be huge this spring/summer. Jennifer’s was gorgeous!

I love all of the pixies so much! (Charlize was also my favorite of the night.) But I don’t get the backward necklace trend. I’m not much of a long necklace girl anyway so maybe that’s part of it?

I think Anne Hathaway looks so so beautiful with this haircut! I could never carry it…not in a million years!
I definitely love the backwards necklace…it is such a unique look!
I can tell you right now I would be hideous if I cut my hair like this…and I think my husband would divorce me bc we’d have the same ‘do. And while Charlize looks phenom, I’m not so sure Anne should keep her hair that short :-/ I like the idea of these backward necklaces!!
I have recently had my dip dyed bits cut off, and I miss my long hair sooo much ! I could never go that short but they all look gorgeous especially Anne 😀 <3

Pixie cuts are perfect on the right people. On me it would be one of the most horrible looking things ever.
I love the backwards necklaces, though… That, most of us can pull off!

I love Anne’s pixie it makes her look really sophisticated!
I always wish that I had the gusto to go pixie! I don’t think I ever will, though…I am way to big of a chicken! These lovely ladies do pull it off beautifully, though 🙂 XO Brynn
Yes to all the pixie cuts – these ladies are rocking it! It makes me kinda miss the pixie cut in all honesty….I should show you a picture sometime, ha!

Charlize could do pretty much anything to her hair and still look amazing! I don’t know how I feel about the backwards necklace… but I definitely think its going to be trending now!

I couldn’t wear a pixie cut but I do admire how winsome it looks on others, Anne wears it well. Love the backward necklace trend, something new and fresh! Thanks for your visit sweety. following you
I love Charlize, she’s absolutely stunning no matter what she wears or how her hair is styled! Her and Halle Berry look amazing with pixie cuts! The backwards necklaces were so pretty, it looked like they were dripping in diamonds!

I love the pixie cut. I wish it suited me.
I’m loving the pixie cuts too. My friend saw Charlize Theron at a restaurant in LA (their tables were close to each other outside), and she said that she was just as gorgeous in person as she is on tv and in movies.

I wish I had the gut to get a pixie cut !

a backwards necklace sounds like the perfect companion to an elegant updo.
