In all of the excitement in the morning with the announcement of the Oscar nominations I ridiculously almost forgot about another awards show held later on in the day in L.A. Many of the stars that had been recognised several hours earlier by the Academy came together on the blue carpet along with those that were controversially snubbed (Selma director Ava DuVernay and those involved in The Lego Movie come to mind immediately…) to celebrate the 20th Annual Critics' Choice Awards.
Boasting 24 categories, the winners are decided by a panel of nearly 300 reviewers in the Broadcast Film Critics Association. There's little overlap with Academy voters, but the top prize - simply titled Best Picture - has matched 12 times in the last 15 years, which bodes extremely well for this year's winner: the remarkable 12-year production, Boyhood. A full list of the winners can be found here, and if you're in the U.K. then Lifetime are screening highlights from the red carpet at 8pm, followed by the awards at 9pm, this evening (Sky channel 156).
As it's the first public appearance of many of the newly anointed Oscar contenders the fashion on the red (blue) carpet was pretty impressive indeed. As ever a full selection of looks can be found on the Vogue website here, but I've shifted though a couple of other galleries too to collate my Best Dressed list below.

Critics' Choice Awards 2014 Best Dressed
Last night saw yet another glittering red carpet in Hollywood, this time for the Critics' Choice Awards at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica. The accolades are awarded by the Broadcast Film Critics' Association (BFCC) and claim to be the most accurate predictor for the Academy Awards - nominations for which were announced yesterday morning.
