In college my roommate was obsessed with celebrity gossip, and I was obsessed with celebrity beauty and fashion. Put those traits together and every year we were able to throw the biggest and most fabulous Oscar party on campus.

Since the Oscar\’s are tomorrow her and I have complied for you how to throw your very own at home Oscar Party.

The Oscar\’s are all about celebrities and fashion so it\’s time to bring that glitz and glamor into your own home this year.

 

Ingredients

• 2 oz. Tequila
• Half oz. Orange Liqueur
• 3 crushed raspberries 
• A splash of cranberry juice
• 1 lime
• Golden caster sugar
• 1 orange

Directions

1.Wet the rim of a tall martini glass using a wedge of orange and rim the glass with golden caster sugar.
2. Add Tequila, lime quarters, Orange liqueur, cranberry juice and the crushed raspberries to a cocktail shaker filled with ice and shake vigorously.
3. Strain the contents into your sugar rimmed martini glass, and garnish with a small wedge of orange.

The Dress
When picking out what you\’ll wear to an Oscar party you want to make sure it\’s something that will show off your best assets. Do you have an Ann Hathaway back? If so have your dress be backless. Want to accentuate your curves try a wrap dress.

The \”Fab\” factor
While your dress is gorgeous you need a little accent to your outfit so try a statement necklace, large headband, cocktail rings or statement earrings.

The Makeup 
It\’s your time to shine so wear makeup that will get people talking. From a dramatic eye look like Nicole Richie has or gorgeous hot pink lipstick like Sandra.

OMG SHOES!
We all know shoes are an important part of the overall look. Those stilettos will give you added height that make you look taller, but slimmer as well. Don\’t want to spend money on shoes? Take a pair of black or nude heels and clip on a pair of statement earrings or a flower for some added glamour.

Hair
When it comes to achieving a look hair can make it or break it. For instance if you have a beautiful ball gown type dress don\’t go for the sleek pulled back pony-tail. It will completely ruin your look. You would want to try more of a weddingesque up-do. Remember your hair should compliment your outfit.

Nails
You want your nails to be seen, but not be the center of attention. Light colors and nudes are popular with light color dresses or to play it safe. If you are wearing a bold red dress make your nails either one shade darker or lighter of that red.

Party ideas
• most girls dream about getting their picture taken on the red carpet. So set up a photo station and ask a friend to come take some glamour shots at your party.
