My Favorites at This Year's Golden Globes

Hello girls!  I hope your week is off to a good start so far!  Did any of you happen to watch the Golden Globes on Sunday?  I caught bits and pieces, and then later on saw some of the clips replayed, the ones showing the mean spirited comments from Ricky Gervais were everywhere!  I usually like Ricky Gervias.  It think he's a funny guy, but from what I've seen and heard, this year at the Golden Globes he was a bit too much for people.  Harsh on a lot of topics.  But enough about him, what we really care about is the fashion, right??  I know I do!

There were some beautifully dressed women, some so-so gowns, and then some hideous ones as well!  I had two absolute favorites from the night, and some that weren't my favorites but still definitely worth noting!  Take a look:

Anne Hathaway:


Anne's wearing a sequin studded Armani Prive gown.  I didn't really care for the puffed sleeves, but the material of the dress and the open back are just gorgeous!

Jennifer Love Hewitt:

I've always thought Jennifer is so pretty and was terribly bummed to see Ghost Whisperer come to end, but at least she was nominated for her Lifetime movie this year.  Although I didn't see it, I've heard really great things about it, The Client List.  Don't you think she looks really beautiful here?  She's wearing a Ramona Keveza gown.

Sandra Bullock:

I don't love this look, but I don't mind it either.  It's pretty, but not too eye-catching.  What do you think, are her and Ryan Renyolds really together or just friends?  Something you would like to see happen?  I think most of America wants to see the lovable Sandra happy and in love, but with whose best, I have no idea! :)

Hailee Steinfeld:

I loved how this newcomer from the movie True Grit, dressed so age appropriate!  You hardly see that these days, but this only fourteen year old, chose wisely and looks so pretty in this Prabal Gurung halter gown! 

Claire Danes:


I'm not a huge fan of Claire Danes, but I think this is a lovely shade of pink

Emma Stone:


Emma's wearing a Calvin Klein sheath.  I didn't even realize this was Emma Stone at first!  I knew she had dyed her normally red hair, blonde for a movie role, but she just looks so different here.  I like that she's not trying to be overly sexy, but the tone of the dress is pretty close to washing her out.  I think her makeup and hair looks stunning though!  What do you think about the new hair color?

Worst Dressed: Helena Bonham Carter:

I don't even know where to begin on this look.......It's a Vivienne Westwood gown.  She's wearing mismatched shoes, those glasses, the hair..... Oh dear, just not working!


Now onto my 2 favorites!!  

Natalie Portman:

I know some people have been critical of this strapless Viktor & Rolf layered satin gown, but I don't understand why.  It's the first time I've really got to see her baby bump very well, and I thought this gown did a beauitful job of showing it off in a classy way.  Some women look so radiant when they're pregnant, and I think Natalie definitely falls into that category!  She's glowing and gorgeous! 

My absolute favorite:  
Olivia Wilde:


In this strapless sequin and tulle Marchesa ball gown she steals the show!  And take a look at those killer heels hiding underneath?! She looks so stunning and the shade of the dress works well on here!  Plus, I don't mind some sparkles!!

What do you girls think??  Any certain gowns catch your eye??  Who dressed the best from this set?  Are you loving Natalie's and Olivia's looks as much as I am?

Have a wonderful night ladies!!

Olivia Wilde looks like a true princess! Hathaway, Carrie Underwood and Mila Kunis were also on my best dressed list. I think I would have liked Portman's dress better without the rose.

I loooved Anne H. I liked Olivia W's dress-so princessy- but the hair was too blah for me. Didn't like Natalie P at all...disappointed!

Mimi said...

Yeah. You are spot on about your favorite look of the night. Gorgeous. And Sandra looks ok, but its not the best for her...kinda drab on her i think.

Olivia Wilde was also one of my absolute favorites! I would seriously die to have that gown!

Sandra's gown was just ok to me. Her hair was the absolute worst! It doesn't look good with the dress at all.

Casee and I each chose 5 favorites and posted them today so be sure to take a peek!

I like Sandra's dress, but her hair cut is too young. It drowns out her face.

I like Helena Bohnam Carter. I think she probably knew it looked awful... she just didn't care.

Olivia Wilde looks so PERFECT! THOSE SHOES AHHHHH!

I also loved Mila Kunis's dress. I love that color of green. :)

I love Sandra Bullock so much. She looked so stunning and I loved her dress.

I agree with your 2 favourites. Natalie Portman looks gorgeous and definitely looks stylish with her bump.
And Olivia Wilde's dress was so fairytale like! It's what all gowns should be like.
