This week is going to suck. The weathercasters have predicted snow for every day this week. Starting tonight is BLIZZARD WATCH '09!!! That should make getting to work fun tomorrow morning. Bah.
In other news, I did not watch the Golden Globes last night. I went over to the in-laws' for dinner, but left early as I was feeling crappy. I'd been coughing a bit all day, and last night it kicked into high gear. I spent all last night tossing and turning and coughing and moaning, and the poor Scientist didn't get any sleep because of me. Getting back on point, I didn't watch the Globes, so I have no idea what anyone looked like or any of that. Of course, I'm still doing my giant post of fashion reviews, but keep in mind that I don't know whether the outfits looked better when the people wearing them were actually moving around.
Okay, let's see what we've got this year...
Rachel Griffiths looks like she's wearing a satin toga. Bah.
I love Christina Applegate, but I don't like the way this dress is fitting her. The necklace, however, is AMAZING.
Aaron Eckhardt looks very debonair.
Who is Jennifer Morrison, and why does she have '60s helmet hair?
Another toga, this time from Amanda Seyfried. Boo. The color washes her out, and you don't do the one-shoulder dress if you can see tan lines (even if they are faint).
I hated Amy Adams' shaggy hair when I saw it while changing channels earlier in the day, and I hate the way it matches the shaggy train on her dress.
Evan Rachel Wood looks fabulous now that she's a) not copying Dita Von Teese's style and b) not getting it on with Marilyn Manson any more. That said, as great as her face looks, her dress looks as if it were made from shredding trash bags.
Oh, Glenn Close. No.
Jenna Fischer's face and hair may look good, but that dress is just not doing it for me.
Is it just me, or does it look like Kristen Scott Thomas is stepping on her dress because it's too long?
Julie Benz looks great. But where's the Crypt Keeper? They're still together, right?
Why does Lisa Rinna still get invited to these things? And why doesn't someone do an intervention on her regarding spray tan?
Rumer Willis just looks so weird to me. She's got her mom's features on her dad's head, and her features are just too small. That said, I love the color of her dress.
I'm not sure who Olivia Wilde is, but the bottom of her dress frightens me.
I have to say, I like Taraji P. Henson's dress. It's a style you see again and again, but the pattern makes it fresh.
Demi looks great, but WTF is up with Ashton? At a quick glance, I thought he was an unkempt, unshaven (i.e., normal) Joaquin Phoenix.
Oh, Mickey Rourke. Your EW article made me love you and really want you to rise above your past, phoenix-like. But this outfit ain't gonna win you fans.
Despite Brad's stupid sunglasses, they're still the best looking couple around.
HA HA HA HA! Best pose of the night.
Actually, I take back my previous comment. Here is the best looking couple. (Even if they're not really a couple.)
Anne Hathaway either needs bigger earrings or a necklace. The pale skin is gorgeous, but she needs something.
When did Cameron Diaz start looking like Fergie? Also, her dress looks like something Andie would wear if they made an updated version of Pretty in Pink.
The local entertainment reporter summed up Drew Barrymore's look best: she's doing an impersonation of Marilyn Monroe on a three-day bender. The dress is great, but the hair ruins everything.
Something is really off with Eva Longoria Parker's makeup and spray tan. WOW.
Eva Mendes' front bustle is not a good idea. Her necklace, however, is totally great.
Jennifer Lopez puts the "gold" in "Golden Globes."
Kyra Sedgwick really knows how to pick a color. With so many other women going for either really pale/nude colors or navy/black, she really stands out. Lovely.
OH NO. NO!
Mary-Louise Parker also picks a great dress with a great color.
Maggie Gyllenhaal takes the toga dress one step further with a shoulder bow and electric leopard print. Bleaaaaah.
Interesting dress on Melissa George. I kinda like it.
Go away.
As much as I may be sick of her, Beyonce looks great. I love the necklace and the bodice on the dress.
NPH!!!
Where's your mercury poisoning now, Mr. Piven?
Gasp! What is Rita Wilson wearing? It looks like she has shiny dingle-danglies on her boobs.
Anna Paquin needs to lay off the bronzer. Also, SMILE.
Third-place winners for best looking couple of the night.
Dang! Salma Hayek's boobs look GINORMOUS in this picture.
Despite the earlier atrocity worn by Marisa Tomei, the Hot Mess Award of the evening is officially presented to Renee Zellweger. o_O!
What did Sting do to his head?
Oh God, Heidi.
Colin Farrell will always make me laugh.
I hate to say it, but Tom Cruise looks fantastic. Damn you, Tropic Thunder, for making me like him again!
Emma Thompson, what are you trying to hide under the giant jacket? And what's with that purse?
January Jones, that is the wrong color lipstick. Nice dress, though.
"Hello, I'm Pierce Brosnan. I can't sing worth a damn, but I'm still better looking and more suave than all of you put together."
Chris Pine has CRAZY EYES!
...Yeah, that's all I got.

Date: 2009-01-12 05:39 pm (UTC)I was expecting a much uglier dress on Cameron since you compared it to the Pretty in Pink dress, which we all know is the Ugliest Dress Ever Made. *g*
Tom Cruise does look great. I noticed that on his View appearance -- he looks all rejuvenated and young.
I think Drew looks good.
You're right, Ashton looks weird, Demi looks great.
Jennifer Lopez has become like Posh -- she doesn't smile anymore.
Brad and Angelina do look good, but I'm so over them.
I also agree with your 3rd place couple. *g*

Anybody who can crack a joke on international TV about how he used to be a junkie is OK in my book.

Um, also, can we discuss how TIGHT David Duchovny's suit was? NHHHGHGHGHG. I died!
deep thoughts
Date: 2009-01-13 02:52 am (UTC)Um, I have to give mad props to Salma for continuing to breastfeed (hence the HUGE boobs).
Yeah. Bryan blames the Renee hot mess on the fact that she can't see through the squinty eyes.
Can I just tell you that I caught a glimpse of Marisa Tomei on the red carpet behind some other people doing an interview, paused the tv, rewound, and made Bryan look at the travesty that is her outfit. There are no words. I must respectfully disagree in regards to your trophy for biggest fashion faux pas of the evening: while I agree that Renee's made me gasp in horror, I realized while looking at the entire gown that it was a wacky couture mess, while Marisa's... well, the nicest thing I can say about it is that I think it might have been put together by someone similar to her role in The Wrestler-- aka an aging stripper. Seriously, at least check with a salesgirl at Chicos (if you can't get a stylist) before wearing all that shit together.
I'm sorry that your picture of Mickey Rourke seems to have missed the sequined scarf he was also wearing.
Once again, nice job on your Golden Globes wrap up. We'll have to play phone tag for the next awards show! :)
