Red Carpet – Golden Globes Edition

Golden Globes Fashion:
The Good, The Bad and The Just Ok

 

THE GOOD

Julianne Hough in Monique Lhuillier – She looks absolutely stunning and I love even more that she is originally from Utah! This dress reminds me of the dress Serena wore on the final episode of Gossip Girl, and I think both dresses could be my future wedding gown 😉

Katharine McPhee in Theyskens’ Theory –  Typically, I would not like something this revealing, but I think she rocks this look! The only think I might have done is perfect the hair a bit more, it is a little messy for the structured dress.

Nicole Richie in Naeem Kahn – This color is phenomenal with Nicole’s skin tone. Not to keep referencing Gossip Girl, but this totally reminds me of Blaire’s wedding gown. I think this color is going to be Spring’s hottest color!

Michelle Dockery in Alexandre Vauthier : Stunning! I love the placement of the gold overlay. It is the perfect balance with the soft white bottom.

Amy Adams in Marchesa – The fit, the color, the hair, the minimal accessories….all perfect. A+
(Her best look yet)

Kerry Washington in Mui Mui – Fabulous! The embroidery over the sheer fabric is impeccable. I wish I could have seen it in person.

Jennifer Lawrence in Dior – This dress is amazingly flattering. The belt makes her waist appear tinier than it already is!

THE JUST OK

Adele in Burberry – So I love Adele, and I love Burberry. But I feel like I have seen her in this before (or like twenty times). I wish she would try some fun styles and colors. Lets break the mold!

Ariel Winter in Valentino – I do think that this is an age appropriate dress, but come on its the Golden Globes, not a tea party.

Taylor Swift in Donna Karan – LOVE the plum color, but I think this looks too old for her. Would have been better on someone like Nicole Kidman with her red hair.

Anne Hathaway in Chanel – I love her short hair and the white is pretty against her skin tone, but I think she could have chosen more of a wow piece to match her amazing performance in Les Mis.

Stacey Keibler – The dress is pretty, the arm candy is better!!

THE BAD

Halle Berry in Versace – I know this pattern is very “Versace Esque”, but I think it was the wrong choice. She is usually on my best dressed list, but this looked cheap and tacky.

Eva Longoria in Emilio Pucci – Hello Leg!!! The slit is just way too high and I feel like the top is unflattering too. Plus the hair doesn’t work with this.

Jessica Chastain in Calvin Klein – Can we say unflattering?? The fit on top is all wrong. Plus take a look at the platform on those shoes. Way too Lady Gaga for such a classy lady!

Rachel Weisz in Louis Vuitton – This looks like a dress made at Forever 21. I know polka dots are in, but I don’t love it for the red carpet. Also, the shoes are too chunky under the sheer fabric and look very 90’s.

Sienna Miller in Erdem – One word…WOOF! This woman is the queen of trends, but please kill me now if this look comes in style.

Plaid Play

THE CANVAS –

Coat : Cole Hann (on sale!) ~ Sweater Dress : H&M ~ Scarf : Burberry (similar) ~ Boots : Forever 21
Purse : Burberry (similar)~ Gloves : Ralph Lauren ~ Sunglasses : Michael Kors ~ Earrings : Kate Spade

Man does it like to snow in Utah or what?! But at least there is the truth that it is “The Best Snow on Earth” 🙂

To bundle up for this chilly weather, I always decide to layer up. I got this coat for Christmas and it is SO warm. I love the look of it and think that it is so versatile because the giant hood can be used in a sudden snowstorm, or can be wrapped over the shoulders for extra warmth, or even scrunched up like seen in the picture on Nordstrom’s site.

I also have been loving enerything and anything that has to do with Plaid. So I decided to throw on a few of my favorite Burberry accessories to add a bit of pattern to this outfit.

Off to the Emerald City

THE CANVAS –

Jacket : Literature Noir via Flight Boutique ~ Blouse : Ann Taylor ~ Skirt : Custom Made Leather Skirt ~
Belt : Michael Kors ~ Shoes : Aldo ~ Gloves : Ralph Lauren ~ Aviators : Michael Kors ~
Hat : World Market (recent, Plum Version) ~ iPhone Case : Tory Burch ~
Purse : Tory Burch ~ Trunks : Vintage Louis Vuitton

Over the holiday break, I got a lot of time off which was so needed, but I was sad because I wasn’t able to wear any of my Christmas gift right away to work. Well I had an excuse to dress up a bit over one of the weekends and decided to evoke my new favorite trend…emerald jewel tones!

I received this Purse and iPhone case as Christmas gifts, so you know when I saw this green hat while doing errands at World Market in Park City, it was a must buy (especially since it was half off!). I paired the green with a camel color, because I thought it looked very rich with the jewel tones, without competing too much.

What would you pair this jewel tone with?

Oh “Deer”

THE CANVAS –

Undershirt : J.Crew ~ Sweater : Koo De Ker (recent!) ~ Jean Leggings : Forever21 (old) ~
Boots : Nordstrom (old) ~ Necklace : J.Crew ~ Watch : Marc by Marc Jacobs ~
Earrings : Kate Spade ~ Bracelets : J.Crew, Forever21, Groop Dealz ~ Purse : Louis Vuitton ~
Lipstick : NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil (Cruella)

So of course I had to jump on te bandwagon of animal print sweaters! I loved this one that I found at a local boutique in Utah, Koo De Ker.

The reason I was SO drawn to this sweater is because the animal head was actually made out of sequins! I love being on trend, but finding something that is unique and not the same one everyone else has. By pairing it with a pop of turquoise from my gingham shirt and necklace, I was ready to head out.

xoxo

(p.s. – The lipstick I am wearing is the new color I got from my brother for Christmas and I love it!! It goes on matte and stays for so long without drying out my lips. If you like a shinier look, just put a clear lipgloss over the top. I must say it is a good find!)
