Golden Globes Unfug or Fab Carpet: Julianne Hough


Look at these two crazy kids and their matching poofs. It MUST be love.

The first dress: Do you like it, or would you change it?

Golden Globes Well Played, Salma Hayek


Thank God, Salma pulled it together for the Globes. She might show up to press conferences or movie premieres looking like she lost a bet to Stella McCartney, but she knows how to bring it for an awards show.

Golden Globes Fug or Fine Carpet: Olivia Munn


The first thing you need to know about this dress is that the Armani press release about it bragged about the “iridescent hombre waist.” Even though we knew better, we had such high hopes. Would it just say “HOMBRE” on it? Would there be photos of various hombres? A button that, when pressed, played clips of a fragrance-pimping Joey Tribbiani drawing against the Hombre Guy?

Unfortunately, it was just ombre. And it didn’t really work for me. I LOVE the idea of the herringbone pattern formed from all the turquoise, but the ombre hombre strip here (which matches the whole back) just makes it look like they ran out of beading and had to spill something on the dress lining so that it looked intentional. I want to pack the whole thing back to Armani and be like, “That was just a first draft, right? I have notes. Let’s get together in two weeks.” Also: darker eye or darker lipstick. Has she just been to the gym?

Am I overreacting?

Golden Globes Well Played, Stacy Keibler and George Clooney (and Amy Poehler and Ben Affleck and Neil Diamond and some wax figurines)


Intern George is officially the worst intern in the world. He NEVER comes to work, but instead is off clowning around with seriously everyone, including a wax figurine of President Obama, and a live figurine of Neil Diamond.

Golden Globes Fug or Fab: Julia Louis Dreyfus


JL-D here usually wears something fairly sleek, so I thought this was a fun departure for her.

But the more I look it, the weirder it seems that the dress is designed with that bridal drop-waisted hem, and then they added a dark horizontal line at her natural waist (it’s not really a belt, per se, but… what is it? A banner? Is that advertising space for sale?). Those appear at odds with one another, and I wish the skirt started at the stripe and not down around her hips because that gives this a very dated, Disney Princess quality. Also, this year it felt like one or the other of us kept saying, “I just wish [insert name here] had on stronger lipstick.” Loads of people ended up going so light on the lippy that it blunted their overall looks, and this was one of them — seriously, I keep thinking maybe Elaine just got caught in a hardcore makeout session in the limo and so it all smeared off onto her husband’s face.

What do you think?

Golden Globes Fug or Fab: Jennifer Westfeldt with Bonus LOTS OF HAMM


I feel sort of sorry for Jennifer Westfeldt, because you know her entire life lately just involves people shoving past her to get a slice of Hamm. If he is the Honey-Baked Hamm of the Hollywood buffet, she’s like the napkins: Everyone expects her to be there, and it would be weird if she didn’t show up, but no one ever got all excited because they were about to bask in the glory of some really awesome napkins. No one has been gleefully anticipating napkins or craving napkins or thinking about what condiments they want to put on their napkins.
