winter white.

Marion Cotillard is absolutely breathtaking in this white Elie Saab one-shouldered dress at the SAG Awards on January 23. I used to think white was a color only to be worn in the summer, but lately, I have just been loving winter white. I think it's such a stark contrast to the typical blacks and grays that we grow so comfortable with in the winter months.

Marion Cotillard is one of my favorite actresses to watch at award shoes. My number one favorite gown of all time is the one she wore to the 2008 Academy Awards, where she took home the coveted Best Actress Award. It too was white, and a Jean Paul Gaultier masterpiece. With scalloped edges, and a mermaidesque feel, she was not only the best actress of the night, but also the best dressed.
