2011 Golden Globes: A night of glamour, glitter, stars and well…Helena Bonham Carter

After a night of more hits than misses I think everyone really gets the importance of the right team of stylists; or maybe a fear of the wrath of Joan Rivers and the Fashion Police. Trends of the night included pink, green, and my favorite backless and long sleeves!


Hair was all over the board and so were my choices for best and worst. I loved the bangs on Olivia Wilde in contrast to her Marchesa cake topper ball gown but it looked dry in HD. I think maybe less mousse and more silicone shine product would help. Sandra Bullock on the other hand did it right! Old Hollwood glam is a safe choice but it’s what we want to see and the ladies who do it best? Anne Hathaway, Megan Fox, January Jones and Eva Longoria nailed it!
Biggest hair hit AND miss of the night had to go to my girl Scarlett Johansson. I loved her gown, makeup and her editorial hair from the front but the side view ruined it! Too much conehead for the red carpet for me. Who got it wrong or just doesn’t care about hair? Well the award goes to Annette Bening for her sculptural accident, Helena Bonham Carter who still is sporting her Mrs Lovett’s Sweeney Todd hair.

Makeup was lovely on almost everyone Elizabeth Moss who didn’t even bother with makeup or hair but the Donna Karan emerald gown was amazing. The stand-out faces of the evening were Anne Hathaway, January Jones, Eva Longoria and Megan Fox. Perfection on all counts!
Now for the fug gowns…. Now I embrace choices, personal style and risks as much as the next gal here’s where I draw the line. What has happened to Michelle Williams? She was on my best dressed a few years ago and now, although I love her Mia Farrow hair; that dress looked like it came straight out of the JC Penny prom department! Christina Hendricks was a repeat offender and if she goes any further over the top I am going to add her to the worst male list!  I would be a liar if I said I liked the always stylish Natalie Portman’s Viktor and Rolf satin sheet toga gown. Glad she felt pretty and thrilled she is a glowing mom to be but I think from a profile her gown  looked like a satin wrinkley sheet. There’s always the Oscars. And the worst dressed goes without saying… Oh Helena Bonham Carter, the Westwood was aweful, your hair was a mess. I couldn’t see your makeup for your Gina Davis shades and how could anyone not notice your mismatched shoes as you tried to stay upright on the red carpet. Just because it’s your style doesn’t mean its right!
Best dressed man was without a doubt Robert Downey Jr. in Prada who incidentally also wins for best speech! And the starlets who rocked it the best?  Anne Hathaway in Armani Prive, Julie Bowen in Tadashi, Eva Longoria in Zac Posen and Megan Fox in Armani Prive but Anne Hathaway was perfect head to toe and the thing that made her stand out was that her look was on trend…Nailed it!
