I get so excited when it’s award season!
It’s just so exciting and glamorous.
Unfortunately, this year I had to watch the Golden Globes under the covers trying to endure intense body aches and one killer sore throat. Yep, I picked up a fun virus. But that didn’t stop me from listing out my best and worst dressed on the carpet.
& here they are;
Sofia Vergara, Nicole Ritchie, Nicole Kidman, Kelly Osbourne and Emma Stone actually looked like they were going to a glamorous event. Unfortunately, the rest of the big stars seemed to be attending something more along the lines of their senior prom. Am I right? Definitely was not blown away with the fashions (was that a Jessica McClintock Natalie Portman was rocking? Seriously).
Sorry ladies. Unfortunately, voluminous gowns seemed to have made a very ill-fitting comeback last night (Sarah Michelle Gellar blue paint disaster and Piper Perabou‘s nude cupcake number), along with gowns that wanted to compete with actresses over attention (the beautiful Dianna Agron managed to take a backseat to her overly intricate laser cut swan [?!?!] dress). You may be thinking, “Well where does Claire Danes fit in?” Although her dress was really beautiful from the back, I just cannot get behind this white/black contrast trend. It is so matronly! Made me totally miss her little neon pink ensemble from last year’s show.
What did all you pretties think?
ps; wait until you see what I have in store for all of you tomorrow!

Aw I agreed with your best in that Kelly Osbourne & Nicole Richie looked amazing. I disagreed with your worst: I liked Claire Danes and Piper Perabo’s dresses:( Agree that tie-dye does not transition into a ball gown. Poor SMG – she seems so nice.
Besitos. I miss you.

I told Dave I thought a lot of the dresses were very bridal. TOTES agree on Nicole Kidman. Didn’t get a lot of screen time. And those colors on Emma Stone are GORGE! I also loved Diane Lane’s dress.

DEFINITELY. Here’s hoping it doesn’t set the tone for the rest of the award season! Even Augi commented on Nicole Kidman’s dress, and he is not her biggest fan. Diane Lane did look really beautiful – I just wish they had styled her hair differently. Something about it made her look older (and she never looks old).

Poor, poor SMG. She was probably the worst of the night.
Claire Danes looked gorgeous (hair/makeup)…I just really wished the front of the dress looked different….the back was so spectacular. She should have just walked around backwards 😉

Do you know those lunatics on police actually said Nicole Kidman was a worst dress nominee? Uh, she looks AMAZING! Considering they have a chick with ugly grey hair (who looked great at the show) and a woman who looks like an alien (Joan Rivers) I can’t even fathom why they’d say anything bad about Nicole. I generally find the show amusing because Joan can be hilarious but I turned it off and looked at dresses online because of that comment. Nicole’s face even stopped having that puffy injected look and frozen features she was sporting for too long.
