best dressed: golden globes 2011

17.01.11 | Tara | 7 Comments

Natalie Portman won my heart with her acceptance speech. Unfortunately, I can’t say the same about her dress. Where was Rodarté when she needed them?

Here are my votes for best dressed from Sunday night’s Golden Globe awards:

My favorite risk taker January Jones in Versace (she is the new face of). When you look like that, why the hell not? Her boobs are amazing, I love the fringe, and the immaculately coiffed hair is the perfect pretty sophisticated foil to the red hot look.

…

My favorite blush colored sparkler:  Anne Hathaway in Armani Privé. Love the long sleeves with shoulder pouf and then that low back and slight fishtail hem. I wish I could have seen those large scale sequins/paillettes on this dress in person. It looks amazing and is the perfect amount of subtle bling.

…

My favorite color:  Claire Danes in custom made Calvin Klein Collection. Minimalism at its best: in neon.

…

My favorite Princess Moment:  Olivia Wilde in the always fabulous Marchesa (and Christian Louboutin shoes). I personally love the casual down hair- without it I think she would have looked overdone (like a country music star). The hair makes the look approachable, modern and cool, and very Olivia.

…

and then there’s my favorite Wild Card:  Heidi Klum in Marc Jacobs straight off the runway Resort 2011. Some people thought she looked ridiculous and inappropriate. Well, those people clearly don’t understand fashion and don’t know how to have a little fun. Not nominated and only there for the party, and being L.A. in January (practically Spring, especially in fashion’s eyes), I thought she looked fabulous (call me crazy). Heidi doesn’t take herself too seriously and has fun with fashion, and this dress for this event is an example of that.

…

Who was your favorite?

…

onward to the Oscars!

    Halle Berry!!!! Amazing and daring.
    Scarlette Johanson was second and J-Lo third..
    There was a lot of cool fashion there that night.
    Natalie looked like someone wrapped her in a sheet. Ugh.

    I’m all for the simplicity of Claire Danes’ dress + fun color. I thought January Jones’ skirt looked like one of those silky Chinese key chain thingys….. :)

It will be hard for me to never be a snowboarder girl 🏂 again and I’m so proud of my skills there, but it’s also nice to stand up properly and not have my bum freeze from constantly sitting on the snow, and get off the chair with ease 🤣. Also cheers to new ski friends (some of my favorite kinds of friends) and isn’t this furry ski hood so cute? All the hot ski girls are doing it @courtwildson 💕! #skihood @pictureorganicclothing
