69th annual golden globes

angelina jolie in atelier versace 

fucking flawless. beyond gorgeous.

charlize theron in dior 

pretty stunning as well.

emma stone in lanvin

i really like her - great style.

tilda swinton in haider ackermann

fierce. fiercely beautiful. 

natalie portman in dior

diane lane in reem acra

kate winslet in jenny packham

helen mirren in badgley mischka

because she can never, ever do wrong in my book.

well .... i am choosing to skip the worst dressed for this event because there were just so many badly dressed women there. from horribly fitting dresses to hideous mermaid dresses to skin colored monstrosities. ugh.  shockingly bad.

oscar 2011 fashion

cate blanchett FLAWLESS in givenchy haute couture. seriously girl love for cate!  she can do no wrong.

florence welch in valentino.  i really like this dress (i should say that i have something very, very similar that is shorter and vintage 1970s dior!)

hailee steinfeld in marchesa (she helped design the dress) she is just so adorable.

mila kunis is elie saab haute couture. when i looked at this show with a friend my comment was:

oscar dresses!  she looks very pretty & her boobs looked great!

the one and only helen mirren in vivienne westwood. another all time favorite of mine. 

camilla alves & matthew mcconaughey. i really liked this - i would totally wear this somewhere. simple, chic, elegant.

colin firth (swoon, swoon) & his beautiful wife livia. she is apparently wearing a dress made from 12 other vintage dresses?  she's really into eco-friendly fashion. they are such a striking couple. where oh where is my colin firth??  le sigh.

warren beatty & annette bening - another beautiful couple. i believe she is wearing chanel but i'm not 100% sure.

i will refrain from commenting on the bad as there were so many awful, boring looks......

biggest disappointment of the night:

michelle williams in valentino

this is my biggest criticism of the night - everyone fell into 3 categories: 

1. part of the wedding party.

2. that girl. the one who is all boobs and sheer panels.

3. so boring....nude & peach & all those shades....not that great on the red carpet. 

it's kinda sad that all these young girls stuff themselves into these gowns that, although they may be beautiful, are just so inappropriate and say absolutely NOTHING about them. most of their dresses looked like something an older woman would wear. for instance, i thought catherine zeta jones looked lovely and appropriate. whether you love or hate my choices at least they are all true to themselves. i mean, i didn't love julianne moore's dress but it's so her and she looks smashing in it & the color is just so brilliant. and helena bonham carter, bless her, doesn't deviate from what she likes no matter what anybody says. i love that... and LE SIGH i love that tilda wore the jil sanders!  i'm sure it will be panned by those horrible fashion police shows but she looked flawless and you know what? she looked like someone you would want to sit next to at dinner and have a nice chat-up!  i'd rather someone wear a dress or look i didn't love but was true to their own style.  everyone just looked so bland and overdone.

my biggest disappointment was michelle williams because i usually love what she wears. i just think the fit of the dress ON TOP of the look of the dress just isn't doing her any favors. 

helen mirren, i think i love you.
