Winners and L-Dogs at the Golden Globes:

In terms of awards shows, the Golden Globes are a pretty big effing deal.  The press coverage after a show of this magnitude used to be the bane of my existence when I was a publicist.  But now as a blogger, blogging from my anonymous ivory tower, I cannot wait to see how the looks are dissected in the pages of weeklies and glossies for months to come.  While I typically like to showcase the scope of fashion stylings at these events by featuring the best, the worst and the just-okay, I am still trying to get over a bad stomach bug so am opting to just be super positive and highlight the best of the best.  Then I think I’ll just write a little bit about why I didn’t like some dresses even though the people who wore them clearly thought they were a good call at the time (repeat offender Anna Lynne McCord, Tina Fey and Christina Hendricks, I’m talking to you).

The Good:

Maggie Gyllenhaal’s fearless sense of fashion brought down the house last night.  She looked sensational in a peach column gown with an asymmetrical neckline.  Her sleek hair and make-up looked stunning juxtaposed with her ivory skin and the iridescent sheen of her expertly-tailored gown.

Damn girl.

Snarky comments coming later on.  Mama’s tired.

One thing I will mention at this juncture is that while I LOVE Ashley’s decadent lace gown, I’m really having a hard time with Ashley and Mary-Kate’s new penchant for full on death make-up.

The Good

The Bad (and by bad I mean, how does this happen??)

And The Ehh... (And by ehh I mean, also pretty bad)
