Jon must love the amount his Hamm is in the news. Seriously. Is there a bigger compliment than MULTIPLE stories about how his beanstalk is TOO imposing?

AFI Awards Fug Carpet: Christina Hendricks

Jan 17, 2013 By Heather AT 8:00 am

The weekend of the Golden Globes, about a hundred other things happened. What is WRONG with this town? MOST OF THESE PEOPLE LIVE HERE. YOU CAN GET THEM BACK ANYTIME. EVEN IF THEY DON’T, THEY WILL COME. CELEBRITIES LOVE INVITATIONS TO THINGS.

Ahem. Christina Hendricks, however, was a no-show at the Globes (maybe she wasn’t invited? Or she was working? Or she had the flu? But none of the lady Mad Men were there), so you’d think she would turn the AFI Awards into her big showstopper, right?

Right. By which I mean, SO WRONG.

I suppose it IS a stopper, but only in the sense that actually it’s a non-starter. The length is so frumpy on her; if we cut it off at the knee then maybe we could have a discussion, but right now she just looks wallpapered. And the hair… what is going on with her hair? Apparently it’s an open secret that she wears pieces or toppers all the time. I wish this were her normal hair. Because the idea that she BOUGHT whatever this is and then consciously plopped it onto her head… Powering through what God and maybe a bad hairdresser gave you is one thing, but if the choice was this or something else, here is my question: What on Earth was the something else? Would it explode my brain?

Unfug It Up: Christina Hendricks

I don’t even know with her anymore, you guys.

I mean, this isn’t ACTIVELY TERRIBLE. I don’t feel like she’s punched me in the face with her life/choices. I am not personally offended by it. I mean, not very much. No more than I would be if the nice barista at my Coffee Bean inadvertently got my order wrong. This dress is very much not the end of the world. But nor is it a Whole New World (of Fabulousness). I think we can fix it. Me, I’m taking a couple of inches off the hem and putting a firm stop to the concept of needing a belt on your freaking neck. What about you?

Better Played, Christina Hendricks

I will never get over how her boobs and Joan Holloway’s boobs look so different, considering that…you know, Christina Hendricks is attached to both of them. I mean, HOW RESPLENDENT is she here? So gorgeous. I would sincerely take up a collection to pay Janie Bryant to dress Christina Hendricks for everything. I can understand why you might not want to look like Joan all the — wait. Scratch that. I actually do not understand why you wouldn’t want to look like Joan all the time. Look at some of these shots of her in costume: great in a boatneck! Perfect in a pleated neckline! FAB in this scoop-neck. She is just fabulous. This, on the other hand:

Okay, it’s progress. I’ll take it.

Fug or Fab: Christina Hendricks

I mean, I obviously have notes. Although I’m a little scared she might beat me with her purse:

I don’t dislike this, really. I mean, I don’t know if I think she needed the turtleneck underneath the whole thing — and of course we’re all tired of those shoes, because she wears them a lot — but the overall silhouette is flattering. And, you know, it FITS. Let’s just say, my expectations are low with this one. I DO think her bangs work like that. See? I CAN BE NICE.

But you don't have to be:

Unfug It Up: Christina Hendricks

Oh god. I just can not even:

For some reason, the use of green in the words “Specsavers” on the step-and-repeat behind Christina made me think this was some kind of eco-fundraiser — you know, Save the Foliage or Protect The Hedgerow — and I seriously reflected, “OH, of COURSE. She’s wearing something that’s meant to look like fungus ON PURPOSE because ENVIRONMENT.” Then I realized it was more like she was wearing glasses on purpose because: SPECS. That being said, I think this can be saved. Me, I’d make the hem even — I really, sincerely hate this uneven hem on this dress, because it feels like Shenanigans for the Sake of Shenanigans, which rarely actually translates to Hotness — and then I’d rip that collar off, set it on fire, and throw the flaming debris into a Porta-Potty and then shove the Porta-Potty off a cliff.

Your turn.
