Did anyone watch the Golden Globes yesterday? What did you think of the dresses this year? While looking through photo galleries of what was worn, I just wasn't that impressed. What about you? (Note: all images are from Just Jared - lots of good quality images from the event)
Really wasn't a fan of much of what was worn this year. I don't claim to be a fashion expert or anything ;) I am just wondering where these dresses came from! What do you think?
These were my favorites, by far.
I guess I am really into nude colors + sparkles!
and can I just say how cute all the Glee boys are? :)
I loved watching Kurt/Chris Colfer accept his award and the reactions of the glee cast.
I don't think I am a fan of Sandra Bullock's dark look. Those bangs are too much
ReplyDeletei love all the hunter green dresses - but yeah there were a handful of them that i was def not impressed with!
ReplyDeleteyay for the GLEE cast - they are all so cute!
lea michelle had the best dress in my opinion. but on Yahoo!, they graded her a C!!! what?! that's madness. also, olivia wilde's dress was equally gorgeous.
ReplyDeletegood fashion risks on their part. :)
I have to confess -- I wasn't really wowed this year either. I loved the back on Anne Hathaway's dress though. Natalie Portman's dress...such a gorgeous woman in a dress that really didn't do her justice.
ReplyDeleteI wasn't that impressed either! As Michael Kors on Project Runway used to say: "I'm underwhelmed."
ReplyDeleteHopefully for the Oscars the ladies will bring it!
Angelina and Anne were my favorites!! I wasn't super impressed with many others, but I loved seeing more emerald green on the red carpet!
ReplyDeleteOoh Anne Hathaway and Angelina Jolie looked gorgeous. Also, I am loving Helena Bonham Carter's mismatched shoes. x
ReplyDeleteYou know me: love a good check shirt with a bow tie! Thanks for the round up!
ReplyDeleteI just browsed through the slides on Style.com, and I've gotta say that Olivia Wilde and Sandra Bullock are my faves - love the sparkle and glam!!!
ReplyDelete- Lindsay
Diana Agron was one of my favorites, too. :) Glee is my favorite show so I was so happy to see them win. I think I shed a tear to see Chris Colfer win; it was amazing.
ReplyDeleteso very much loved chris colfer's reaction to winning too! so so very sincere!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite, by far, was Olivia Wilde's dress.
ReplyDeleteLove the Glee boys!!!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you danni! I am no expert either as I usually just stay home in my pj's... but seriously - some of the designs are no brainer no nos. And I am pretty sure they would have been out in project runway.
ReplyDeletei didn't watch last night but checked out some of the dresses this morning...maybe not the greatest lineup of red carpet outfits ever, but can i just say that i loved that there were a bunch of slightly-modest dresses? capped / flowy sleeves, lack of giant cleavage / booty, etc. -- so refreshing to see less skanky red carpet dresses :)
ReplyDeleteI did notice there were a lot of neutrals (well, except for those in hot pink!) so that might have contributed. I did love love LOVE scarlett johanssen's rose/sequin gown, though. And yes, the glee boys were A-Dorable
ReplyDeleteSecond (and third...and fourth...) your sentiments -- not too impressed with the dress selections last night. Though, I'm surprised no one's mentioned Claire Danes and Mila Kunis -- I thought they looked classy and beautiful in their flattering dresses! And hooray for Glee :-)
ReplyDeletei would have to agree that none were UNBELIEVABLE but i did like angelina jolie's and eva longoria's!
ReplyDeleteand michelle williams..... aawwwwfullll.
What I thought was interesting was how many women were wearing dresses with long sleeves. It's kind of like a throwback to 40s, combined with some of the 80s, with a modern twist! :) Wonder if we'll start seeing it as a new trend in Red Carpet-wear?
ReplyDeletei agree danni... nothing all that stunning :( if i had to pick a favorite though, it'd be Julie Bowen's (Modern Family) ruffled dress!
ReplyDeleteI'm a little bored with the "grading" system per the usual suspects.
ReplyDeleteAlso I am a little bored with the dull as dishwater classic gowns.
I am a massive fan of Tilda Swinton and when those yardbirds give her an "F" for fashion, I am reassured that she is a steady pace ahead of dullsvilles like Halle Berry's been-there-done-that faux goth number.
It's a shame that the judges of these red carpet events are stuck in 2003.
Danni, I completely agree! The only dress I was wowed by and actually verbally said "WOW" was Olivia Wilde's dress. The dress was gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAt first I thought you were saying Anne Hathaway and Sandra Bullock's dresses were ugly. I thought, "Those were my favorite!" And then you did too. :) Phew! Angelina Jolie was wearing one like it too in green, and it was gorgeous. But you're right, the rest aren't so hot, and Halle Berry looked so bad in her dress. She really has weird style. Maybe if she covered up more she'd seem classier.
ReplyDeleteI am no expert either but I didn't think the dresses this year were as flattering to their respective pretty ladies as they could have been. But the Glee boys were looking sharp!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you! Nothing was really amazingly impressive. I liked Mila Kunis though!
ReplyDeleteI kept seeing this mustard yellow-colored sort of ruffled/pleated dress on different corners of shots, and it looked BEAUTIFUL, but I never saw a full shot of it or who was wearing it!
ReplyDeleteOmg I loved when Chris got his award! He deserved it!
ReplyDeletei'm with you! i was completely underwhelmed. i thought angelina looked great and scarlett as well.
ReplyDeleteI love Anne's dress the best (Armani Prive). All the designers appear to get requests from the actress' agents (at least that's what it sounds like on Twitter) Ahh to wear one of these gowns (though not HBC's gown)
ReplyDeleteIf you like nude with sparkle you HAVE GOT TO check out olivia wilde's dress! OMG best dressed of the night for me!
ReplyDeleteAhhhhh Anne Hathaway! Love her! Her dress is amazing - lovely colour with just the right amount of sparkle! :) x x

This is a fun post! I didn't get to watch and the clothes are by far my favorite part! I agree with you about the neutral dresses...wow! I especially love that black/silver sparly one! (and I love that you watch Glee! yay!)
ReplyDeleteI agree, such lackluster attire. Helen B.Carter has two different shoes on I think. The Glee boys were indeed adorable. Sandra Bullocks hair was weird I thought.
ReplyDeleteI adored the deep esperald color of Angelina Jolies dress and that of Zeta Jones. Such glamour!
ReplyDeletePersonally, I love when Helena Bonham Carter shows up on a red carpet. She always wears something loud and crazy! I thinks she infuses the red carpet with some much needed rebellion!
ReplyDeleteLoved Anne Hathaway's dress the mostest! And I actually liked Sandra Bullock's whole look. I think the bangs just add to her glam..she's looking better every year!
ReplyDeleteI do agree with you. Some of these dresses are absolutely weird, unflattering, and simply ugly... As for your favorites, I'm with you on three of the four... not too crazy about the bottom right one :)
ReplyDeletei adored tilda and helena, as usual. daring creatures x
