I had it on in the background as I was doing some other things so I don't think I caught all the outfits. There were definitely not alot of wows this time around. I guess Drew Barrymore was my favorite in terms of her dress (the hair was a bit much though). I also loved Eva Mendes's look and the jewelry totally made the outfit. Anne Hathaway was O.K. although I thought the navy was a bit stark - she looked so, so pale. Renee Zellwegger might have been able to pull it off if she had gone with black under her dress instead of nude. Kate Winslet - classic &#38; pretty. Boy she just gets more and more gorgeous with age. Loved the color of Freida's dress although the dress itself was not a winner. What was worse was the way she had her arms pinned to her body the entire time - it was as if she was afraid it would fall if she didn't hold it up!</p> <p>I was so happy to see Slum Dog Millionaire score so many wins. But Shah Rukh Khan (one of India's most beloved actors) looked so goofy with what appeared like a sequin tie under his tux??? And he just came off like a dork when he was introducing the movie (I think he mentioned something about pelvic thrusts...). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43366 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 12:30:31 +0000 Laura 43366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I loved Drew Barrymore's dress - I love the retro 50s vibe of it -- but the hair! Ugh! Same with Cameron Diaz. Great dress, horrible hair. What was up with that?? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43356 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 06:16:49 +0000 Maya 43356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, Lopez. I don't know. It never gets old to me I guess. I'm not an avid follower of celebrity style and awards shows, so when I see something awful, I gawk at it for hours. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43355 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 06:16:09 +0000 Alecia 43355@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't watch the awards show. Went to see Grand Turino instead. Amazing movie. They showed a preview for "he's just not that into you." It has Ginnifer Goodwin in it. Ana, has anyone ever told you you look like her? I thought she looked so much like you, but with longer hair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43353 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 06:13:37 +0000 Antje 43353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jen who? Jennifer Lopez? I didn't even flinch at her dress - she's worn so many weird creations at award shows and other events that I don't really expect a "best dressed" look from her. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43350 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 06:09:20 +0000 Maya 43350@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I guess when you are dainty you can wear pretty much anything and get away with it.</p> <p>I didn't find Freida's dress offensive at all. Jen's is what I would call offensive...although even that isn't offensive so much as ridiculously unflattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43346 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 06:05:31 +0000 Ana 43346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oops, sorry Antje! I didn't realize it was still on there in Seattle. I'll try to keep my lips zipped so as not to spoil the surprise. It was a good show. :)</p> <p>I thought Tina Fey's dress was nice because she has a small chest and can get away with something that low cut. It was kind of a departure from what she normally wears, and what I would expect to see her in, so I gave it a thumbs up for an interesting mix of daring, out-of-her-boxness, but also keeping it fairly down to earth. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43345 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 06:04:01 +0000 Ana 43345@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, yes Maya. I didn't think it was offensive, but I don't like that color on her at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43344 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 06:02:26 +0000 Angie 43344@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh! Antje has actually mentioned one of my favourites. I stand corrected. And Ana too for that matter (in a later comment). I was not wowed by Frieda’s dress but she gets away with it because she’s so dainty, exotic and pretty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43343 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 06:01:47 +0000 Antje 43343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh yes, I forgot about Renee Zellwegger. The worst!</p> <p>I actually thought Drew Barrymore's dress was pretty nice, much better than what I've seen on her in the past, but I hated the hair.</p> <p>I did not care for Tina Fey's dress - but I love her so much, she's just the best, and since I find her so funny and smart and "real" I don't ever blame her for not having high fashion sense, I'm really forgiving that way Her speech made me laugh out loud.</p> <p>I haven't seen some of the others in full view yet... (and I don't want to look online, so I don't spoil it and accidentally see who won - I like to keep up the suspense ;-)) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43342 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 06:01:32 +0000 Tanya 43342@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with you Maya. The color is very flattering on her, but that's just about everything I like about that dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43340 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 05:57:57 +0000 Maya 43340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also didn't watch but I looked at pictures. I don't really "get" awards show dresses. I don't really like most of them usually. Maybe I'm just not a very glamorous person?</p> <p>Am I the only one that did NOT like Freida Pinto's dress? I was shocked to see what high marks it seems to be getting. She is a gorgeous girl but I just didn't care for it (although I do like gold against her skin tone).</p> <p><a href="http://fashion.elle.com/blog/2009/01/freida-pintos-golden-gown.html" rel="nofollow">http://fashion.elle.com/blog/2.....-gown.html</a></p> <p>Am I alone? Everyone seems to be giving it a high score and I thought it was one of the worst, after Jennifer Lopez. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43338 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 05:55:19 +0000 Ana 43338@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>From what I could see:</p> <p>For best dressed, I liked Salma Hayek, Demi Moore, Tina Fey, Kate Winslett, Anne Hathaway, Christina Applegate, and Eva Longoria.</p> <p>I thought Angelina Jolie and Drew Barrymore looked dreadful. And my friend said she thought Maggie Gyllenhaal looked like she had a bed sheet wrapped around herself. I though Renee Zellwegger was candidate for worst dressed. She looked scary! Like a weird, black-gauze-wearing vampire bride. Not a great look for her. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43335 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 05:47:44 +0000 Tanya 43335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have do admit that I am not watching, although I did look through internet photos of the gowns, and I thought that Megan Fox looked stunning. I have been watching 24 instead, it was season premiere and I am a huge fan. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43334 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 05:45:55 +0000 Angie 43334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very interesting. No one has mentioned my list of favourites yet! I was dreadfully disappointed with my gal Penelope Cruz. And J lo gets my vote for worst dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43331 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 05:42:10 +0000 Antje 43331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh cool, I'm glad there are some fellow award show fans out there. And it's a great time to catch up on YLF at the same time :-)</p> <p>Yeah, I'm a big fan of Laura Linney (though I haven't seen John Adams; I've liked her in several movies.)</p> <p>I've loved Kate Winslet's hair and the many big bold dangling earrings, including Sally Hawkins'.</p> <p>Worst look so far in my book: Laura Dern. Hated the hair, and didn't care for the dress.</p> <p>Anna Paquin looked delicious in her dress, it was cut so perfectly.</p> <p>Agree that there is too much beige... And it's interesting to see the one-shoulder numbers - I remember Angie saying that this is a spring trend. Some work, some don't, I think... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43328 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 05:34:23 +0000 Ana 43328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was wondering--what's up with all the beige? I don't feel it is flattering anyone wearing it, even Penelope Cruz! I just though, "meh." Also, one shouldered dresses? bleh. The only person who really pulled that off was Laura Linney, but again, beige dress. </p> <p>Speaking of Laura Linney, I'm glad she won--the John Adams miniseries was fantastic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43326 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 05:32:09 +0000 Angie 43326@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am! Blog post is about precisely that tomorrow. I’m keeping you in suspense. I LOVE to watch award ceremonies too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43303 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 04:39:50 +0000 Anonymous 43303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Antje, I was trying to watch while also trying to decide what I have to wear to a 60's event (organization started in 60's celebrating a birthday) tomorrow night. I agree with you that the necklace is stunning and different for this event. The gowns I saw were all lovely and appropriate, and I liked the great variety of styles and colors this year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anyone-watching-the-golden-globes#post-43301 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 04:28:26 +0000 Antje 43301@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just curious - it would be fun to share notes on the outfits I'm a total sucker for award shows and love the glamour. Right now I'm swooning over Eva Mendez' necklace. Stunning! </p>
