Golden Globes: Worst Dressed List

So you all know who I think got it right at the Globes. Now, here's who I think needs to hire a new stylist (in no particular order because they're all tragic).
Christina Hendricks: That giant ruffle is SO distracting and unflattering.
Michelle Williams: Granny prints are not Globes-appropriate.
Helena Bonham Carter: This look is the epitome of "Hot Mess."
Lea Michelle: Reminds me of Pepto Bismol. Not a fan of her messy hair either.
Halle Berry: This dress screams cougar.
Julianne Moore: Someone get this woman an iron STAT!
Jennifer Love Hewitt: What is up with that neckline??
Kaley Cuoco: The odd tiering of the lower half of the dress is just wrong.
Agree/Disagree?? Did I leave someone out? Comment and give me your thoughts!

2011 Golden Globes: Best Dressed List



The Golden Globes have come and gone. You know my opinion when it comes to who won the awards, but who did I think ruled the red carpet? Like the People’s Choice Awards, I was a bit disappointed, but I do applaud many of the stars for their fashion risks. Did I like many of the fashion risks? No, but a lot of fashion “experts” did, and they ended up on many best dressed lists so good for them. But here’s my list of best dressed ladies, and it’s filled with what many might call “safe” choices, but whatever, it's my list and they look gorgeous to me. I've also included those who almost made the cut, but for one reason or another, just didn't quite do so.

#1 - Dianna Agron
I love everything about this look! Hair, dress, makeup, accessories, even the black nail polish! Dianna looks absolutely gorgeous, channeling old Hollywood in this J.Mendel gown! As one of my friends said, “She's just so perfect!” It’s so true.

#2 - Carrie Underwood
Carrie is always one of my favorites on the red carpet, and she once again looked fabulous in a quartz sequin strapless gown by Badgley Mischka Couture. She absolutely glows and what an amazing smile!




#3 - Sarah Hyland
I’m one of the few who don’t watch Modern Family so I don’t know who she is, but I absolutely adore this Café Au Lait Max Azria gown. It's so elegant, and the color is simply gorgeous on her. I wish I could steal this dress, I love it so much. 

#3 – Mila Kunis
I am in love with the color of this emerald Vera Wang gown! Just stunning! She looks like a grecian goddess!

#4 – Megan Fox
Why does she look so pouty in all her pictures? It’s so unflattering, and she's very pretty. Nevertheless, I can’t deny that I love her pale pink Giorgio Armani Privé gown. If only she would smile and wear some less severe makeup, she'd look amazing.


#5 – Milla Jovovich
Underrated much? I don’t think I’ve seen anyone say anything about this gown, and I have NO idea why. It and Milla look stunning!

#6 – Olivia Wilde
The gown that’s on nearly every Best Dressed list. At first look, I thought it was too much, but I’ve actually come to like it. Plus with a gown by Marchesa, shoes by Christian Louboutin, and jewelry by Tiffany’s, how do you go wrong? Talk about the ultimate combination!

#7 – Helen Mirren
I sure do hope I have Helen's grace and style when I’m her age. She is just fabulous and the dress is beautiful. Flawless.

#9 - Kyra Sedgwick
Kyra looks so classy and elegant in this orange chiffon Emilio Pucci dress. I don’t know too many who could pull of this color, but she does so effortlessly.

#10 - Eva Longoria and Mandy Moore
I thought Eva looked very sophisticated in her black Zac Posen gown. It was very feminine but also strong at the same time. My one negative is that I feel there is a bit too much fabric at the bottom and it looks like its swallowing her. Mandy Moore wore one of my favorite designers, Monique Lhullier, and while her hair and makeup do look wonderful, there was just something off about the gown that kept this look from being higher on the list. I actually think i would've liked it a lot more if it had just been a deeper blue.

Close...But Not Quite (in no particular order)

 Emma Stone
Love the silhouette and simplicity of the gown, but not the color, at least on her skin tone. She still looks gorgeous and sophisticated, nevertheless. 

Scarlett Johansson
This Ellie Saab dress is indeed beautiful (I love the detailed beading), but she’s single now, and I feel like she could have done better. I would have loved to see her wearing something bold and striking.


Sandra Bullock
The Marchesa dress is actually incredibly beautiful, but the hair is just horrible and distracts from its loveliness. Why, Sandra?

Amy Adams
I like the color, hair, and makeup. But there is something about that giant thing growing along her torso that I just don’t care for.


Nicole Kidman
Many thought this gown by Prada was too boring. Maybe a little, yes, but I do think she looks very elegant.

Natalie Portman
She is so pretty, but that big sequin rose plastered on her chest is not.

So that's my list, agree/disagree? Who did you like? Comment and let me know! Coming up: My WORST Dressed List!!

My Picks: 2011 Golden Globe Winners

Glee's Dianna Agron and Naya Rivera
Okay, now this is more like it! At least award-wise. It’s nice to see some amazing movies get the awards they deserve. None of this Twilight ridiculousness. I was so happy to see The Social Network dominating in nearly every movie category because it really was a fantastic film. However, I wouldn’t have minded seeing it share some of its awards with Inception or Black Swan, also two very well done films.

Best Motion Picture, Drama
Winner: The Social Network
My Pick: Quite a competitive category, but it’s a tie between The Social Network and Inception for me, but TSN does have Andrew Garfield…

I though the Best Musical or Comedy category was a joke. Most of the films were pretty 'eh' to me. Alice in Wonderland was very disappointing, and The Kids Are All Right was just…all right. Congrats to Red for being the first comic book movie to be nominated in the category though.

Best Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy
Winner: The Kids Are All Right
My Pick: None of the nominees. I would choose Easy A for being a genuinely funny, smart film.

I pretty much would’ve been happy for whoever won Best Director, all were worthy nominees, although I do feel like Danny Boyle was snubbed for 127 Hours.

Best Dramatic Actor
Winner: Colin Firth, The King’s Speech
My Pick: James Franco, 127 Hours. I can't wait to see this riveting performance myself.

Best Dramatic Actress
Winner: Natalie Portman, Black Swan
My Pick: Natalie Portman, for sure!! I am so happy she won! Natalie's been a long-time favorite actress of mine, and I’m so happy her talent is finally being recognized! Congrats, girl!

Best Comedic Actress
Winner: Annette Bening, The Kids Are All Right
My Pick: Emma Stone, Easy A. Her performance was genius. She has a bright career ahead of her, and I’m definitely looking forward to seeing her in the new Spiderman films!

Best Supporting Dramatic Actor
Winner: Christian Bale, The Fighter
My Pick: I agree with Christian Bale, but once again there’s my love/obsession for Andrew Garfield…

Best Drama TV Series
Winner: Boardwalk Empire
My Pick: Haven’t actually seen Boardwalk Empire, but The Walking Dead was pretty awesome.

Best TV Drama Actor
Winner: Steve Buscemi, Boardwalk Empire
My Pick: Hugh Laurie, House. The show has let me down over the years, but Hugh never has.

Best Comedic TV Series
Winner: Glee
My Pick: 30 Rock or The Big Bang Theory. I do enjoy myself some Glee, but 30 Rock is sheer brilliance, and The Big Bang Theory was made for super nerds like me.

The Big Bang Theory's Jim Parsons
Best Comedic TV Actor
Winner: Jim Parsons, The Big Bang Theory
My Pick: Competitive category filled with great performances, but I gotta agree here. Jim Parson’s Sheldon is absolute perfection!

Best Comedic TV Actress
Winner: Laura Linney, The Big C
My Pick: Tina Fey, 30 Rock. Because she's the most brilliant and funniest woman on TV. The end.

Best Supporting TV Actress
Winner: Jane Lynch, Glee
My Pick: Agreed, she’s hilarious!

Best Supporting TV Actor
Winner: Chris Colfer, Glee
My Pick: I agree. Chris Colfer has delivered some pretty powerful scenes this season on Glee, so I wasn't surprised when he took home the award. Congrats to him!
