The 84th Annual Academy awards concluded with Meryl Streep and Jean Dujardin taking the Best Actress and Best Actor awards, for their roles in "The Iron Lady" and "The Artist", respectively. The latter film also won Best Picture and Best Director, meaning it was quite a good night for the entire team.

The Oscars are also all about glitz and glamour and the highlight is often all those beautiful celebrities walking the red carpet in expensive designer gowns and fashionable accessories.

The general colour trend of the evening seemed to be red and gold, although silver and black (the traditional favourite) also made stylish appearances.

There is one aspect of the red carpet dresses that usually never gets too much significance... accessories! After all, a gown is only as stunning as both the person wearing it and the appropriately chosen clutch/handbag, necklace, earrings, etc...
