MG did a big fat poo in the middle of the night, which in a way was great, because at 3am GMT I got to check in on all the live Oscar action, rather then just read the summaries the following day. From what I could see it was a right knees up… pizza, Brad, selfies, that never get stale ‘Happy Song’ and did I say Brad? For the mums out on the Hollywood tiles, it was a much more sophisticated affair, effortless glamour in a grown up colours…here come the dresses.

Best Actress winner and best frock in my opinion, mum of 2 Cate Blanchett radiated old school Hollywood in a shimmering Armani Prive gown

After what has been a horrendous start to her year, Julia Roberts, mum to three children, wore a sombre black Givenchy lace dress, featuring an on trend peplum detail and unfortunately ill-fitting tailoring style bodice (she still has that killer smile eh?)

The mum of 6 has the beauty to pull off what on many would be a bit frumpy. Angelina Jolie looked stunning in this metallic Elie Saab gown and it’s a vast improvement on that leggy number she rocked last year!

Mum of two Naomi Watts opted for an icy Calvin Klein column dress and looked fantastic – love this dress!

Yet another example of ice ice baby, Kate Hudson shimmers in this vampish Versace dress (love the cape detail and draping around the hips)

Nominee Amy Adams, and mum of one, kept things seriously understated in a navy Gucci gown, but I love the pop of colour in her earrings (I was hoping for a more American Hustle-style affair)

Bemused by mum of one Sienna Miller’s bizarre Glamazon arm bracelet thing, but her red Alexander Mcqueen dress was a stunner

Penelope Cruz, mum of two, was pretty-ish in pink, too much draping on this Giambattista Valli dress for her petit frame, but the overall effect was some what Breakast at Tiffanys

I kind of like the razzle dazzle of mum of 3 Jennifer Garner’s fringed Oscar De La Renta dress, although my MG would find nothing better then to pull those tassels right off.
Who’s your favourite mum on the red carpet?
