Let’s just call the red carpet for tonight’s Independent Spirit Awards the dress rehearsal for the 2014 Oscars: It’s the last time the stars will strut their stuff before the Oscars on Sunday (March 2).
Celebs walked a blue carpet under a tent at Santa Monica beach due to stormy weather at the annual bash. The fashion at the Indie Spirit Awards, while still displaying up-to-the-second styles and boldface designer labels, is a bit more, well, independent than that of the Oscars. Consider this your best chance to see your favorite star in a couture crop top.
Here are our picks for the 21 best looks to light up the penultimate red carpet of awards season.
Shailene Woodley
Best Female Lead nominee Shailene Woodley grabbed an aqua crop top and maxi skirt ensemble for the occasion.

The Best Supporting Male winner stepped out with a tres 90s plaid shirt tied around his waist.
