2014 Golden Globes: Best & Worst Dresses And Beauty Looks!

Just finished catching up on 2014 Golden Globes and a few things linger in my head as highlights:

• Elizabeth Moss giving the middle finger on the manicure camera. Finally some fun, right?
• Beauty looks (read make up & hair) reigning over dresses this year.
• Tina Fey slams Taylor Swift yet again. Excuse the gloating, just can’t help myself.
• The cape of Lupita Nyong.
• The winners. (Leo, with the supermodel joke making it even better. Jennifer Lawrence, though I’ve heard complaints due to her role being so little. She did win for supportive actress, right?)
• Still don’t like Lena Dunham. There I said it. I have officially self subjected myself to world’s dismay.

Debuting the red carpet season, a few trends were making quite the wave: metallics, colored dresses & bare backs. Or intricate backs. Best Red Carpet Dresses & Looks at 2014 Golden Globes. 

My faves include: Olivia Wilde‘s metallic slash sequined dark green long sleeve half bare back and cute tummy dress. Loved her simple side parted hair (biggest red carpet hair trend) & smokey yet natural makeup.

Kelly Osbourne looked HOT as hell, stating herself she did not feel this sexy on the red carpet ever. Loved her dress, her gold details on the gown and on her stiletto nails, which may be losing spotlight this year, but if you love it and can pull it off, do it! I’m all for over the top details and extravagant accessories.

Naomi Watts was the definition of simplicity, glamour, elegance and style in her light grey metallic gown and simple beauty look.

Margot Robbie: beautiful. Amy Adams: so very loose & hot 70’s style. Loved her look from head to toe. Zoe Saldana: only she could have pulled off such a weird but beautiful dress. Makeup & hair flawless. The couple of the night (actually there were 2 equally beautiful and hot), Matthew Mcconaughey & Camila Alves in a black metallic or sequined long sleeve dress, and the Channing Tatums. What I thought of Lupita Nyong‘s look? Never have a seen such a beautiful woman. Flawless & gorgeous without even trying. Simplicity at its best. The color complimented her, the silhouette of the dress was beautiful, short hair, tiny studs. One thing I was not over the moon with was the one thing the rest of the world loved. The cape. Yes, I can acknowledge its interesting’ness and high fashion trait, (it was the talk of the event after all) but if I were to speak the truth and nothing but the truth: I wasn’t sold on it. Elizabeth Moss was most definitely the star of the mani camera for flipping the bird so unexpectedly. Dress & makeup wise: loved her. Others who nailed it… Oh, Robin Wright. Is it legal to look this great & sexy still? How is it even humanly possible? Borderline Worst Dresses at 2014 Golden Globes. 

Kate Beckinsdale went for a metallic look and pulled it off, sort of. The woman could wear a sack over her head and still look hot, but it was the same ol’ type of gown (mermaid, strapless etc). If Sofia Vergara opted for a different silhouette this year, it could only mean 2 things. (1) It’s OK if we all follow her example, or (2) The world has come to an end. The latter though makes more sense. At least if we’re to talk about her dress per se. Seriously, Sofia? She’s a beauty and a hot mama no matter what, but I’m not gonna mask my disappointment on this one. Borderline worst dressed. Taylor Swift… … … … with every dot my blood pressure went a little higher. For no reason, just Taylor you know. Although this year I’ve been done a little justice by Tina Fey’s slamming of the young pop star and by Jennifer Lawrence who said she was about to push her over the stairs. (joking of course). I hear you sista’. Sans le joke. Doh. Poor thing (the Swift) taking so much crap from so many people., even those who don’t know her. Although I guess knowing her would barely change a thing. Fashion wise: the dress was a love it or hate it situation. In my case the obvious being the latter, due to all the back strangled fabric of that damn dress. She looked like she sat on a massive marshmallow that was now stuck up her ass. While she’ll struggle pulling it out, she might as well take the stick outta there as well. Who knows… sans it, we might actually get to like her. On the other side: Worst Red Carpet Dresses & Looks at 2014 Golden Globes, Paula Patton leads the way in that “side vagina” dress (as Leandra put it), then comes Julia Roberts. What in the name of God are you doing Julia? Trying to pull a Sharon Stone? Not working girl. What you need to do is get rid of 2 things: your stylist & that stupid shirt. Kaley Cuoco was a hot mess. Kate Mara, much like Amber Heard decided to wear a bird’s nest on their heads, hence ruining their dresses. Which, in all honesty were not a big deal anyway. Sandra Bullock‘s great hair and dark makeup did not save her from landing on the worst or weird dressed ladies. Neither did Jennifer Lawrence‘s. I love this girl. And ever since she cut her hair, I love her beauty looks so much. Yet her red carpet dresses are so… meh. Either too much. Either something’s lacking. Either ill fitted. Never spot on. Maria Menounos is still stuck in the prom look. Perhaps she never got to attend her’s so she’s only trying to make up for the lost time. Let it go Maria. And some other looks and dresses who made the worst cut. Like Heidi Klum. Just go home Heidi. Which was your most and least favorite?
