The star's appearance was very different from another Oscars photo she posted previously.

Drew loved her 1998 Oscars look 

It's become an iconic look and last year, Drew spoke of her love for it too, telling ET: "I liked when I wore the daisies in my hair. Grocery store daisies, and then I took a can of glitter from a beauty supply store and sprayed it on myself everywhere."

She added: "The red carpet is a place to play and go for it. And you only live once, so just have fun!"
