Fashion Critique from the “Un-Chique” ;)


I know, I know, I’m not one to judge on awards night fashion highs and lows. After all, there are those who question my fashion sense to my face and then some *snickers hehehe*. Tsk, I honestly don’t have the authority to write about fashion or critique it because I don’t even have a degree in fashion from FIT, Parsons, Central Saint Martins, or even from the equally good local fashion schools here.  🙁 Besides, I can’t even look good in any of those outfits (no matter how beautiful they are haha *I can ruin a good dress hahaha*). But isn’t it just fun to look at the designer clothes on celebs? You don’t need a degree in fashion to talk fashion– at least not all the time and hehehe, certainly not today on my blog *woooohoooo* 😀 Besides, I want to pretend I’m “kinda” chic so I can also pretend to have the authority to blog about the clothes and the celebs from the ‘Globes 😉 *Note the common keyword: pretend!*

Pretentious baghagwannabe alert!
Anyway, without further ado, the women from the Golden Globes 😉

Sigourney Weaver, gorgeous at 60!

Her gown has that Madame Grés look to it, though I don’t know who made it. Here’s a little celluloid 411 on Sigourney– did you know she is the daughter of Sylvester Pat Weaver, creator of NBC’s Today Show and The Tonight Show? She is Hollywood royalty, peeps 🙂

“If I could turn back time…”
Peeps, remember Cher and her Bob Mackie Bling Bling Gowns? 😀 *Snicker*. This gown’s another yikes, but perhaps that’s what makes Cher, Cher! 🙂 She still has an awesome voice, nice dress or not 😀  On the other hand, I really like what Christina wore. She glows!
 
I like Chloe’s dress– by Valentino. It’s very feminine, although it does look like Chloe’s drowning in ruffles 🙂 But I still like it. And I enjoy watching her on Big Love 😉
 
What a beautiful- looking couple! Emily looks amazing!!! I loved Emily in The Young Victoria.  Miranda Priestly would’ve approved. It was veddy veddy good 😉 If you haven’t seen that yet, go buy the DVD (woop, is the DVD out yet?).

Oh my, what happened to the usually beautiful Jennifer A? Did she get wet in the rain?  Her hair made her look sloppy 🙁 I like the shoes though!

Umm, yikes.  🙁 Confession *and don’t you dare laugh hahaha*: I tried on a Herve Leger red dress– last year to be exact. hahahaha. I swear, I looked like a two bit hoochie. Plus all my fats were just bulging out of the dress. It was extreeeeemely unkind to me *hahaha don’t start painting mental pictures coz it could get reeeeeal ugggglyyyyy hahaha* And I think this dress was really unkind to Mariah too 🙁 Oh and check out the weight of her earrings (look at how it pulled her lobe down!!) They sure look real heavy 🙁 Ouch! That said, she looks really happy, which is the most important of all 🙂

 WOW!
 
Marion Cotillard is gorgeous in this dress. I never forgot her for her Jean Paul Gaultier gown. She really rocked it. And I think she rocked this dress too. The color suits her very well. Plus I love this dress– it looks very well- made.

Nicole is gorgeous but I really think she needs to stay away from pale colors. It washes her out. If this gown were in a darker color, I think she would’ve looked a lot better. Not sure about the design, but the color would’ve helped somehow.

Tsk. I love the color– and you all know that I do, but what material is this? I’m surprised, and disappointed to learn that it’s a gown by Bottega Veneta. Tomas, why ??? 🙁 I think the material looks… cheap 🙁
I heart this!!

I really do love this Lacroix on Diane Kruger. I don’t know why the fashion pundits at Yahoo saw this dress as matronly. I honestly believe that Diane rocked it. She was perfect for this gown. 🙂
 
Oooh I love the new ‘do! But I wish Ginnifer Goodwin’s dress is floor- length, in this very same color. It really suits her. Oh and  I enjoy watching her on Big Love too 🙂

I must admit Kate would be the only actress I can think of who could pull off this gown.  Anybody else and it would’ve been disastrous. I love it on her!  Very clean lines!
David looks good here.

But ooooh Tea Leoni is pretty! Not a fan of her outfit for an awards night though.  The only one who pulled off the shirt- and- skirt look was  Sharon Stone. I don’t think anyone topped her look. Oh, and I picked this photo because look behind Tea– a Goyard Saint Louis PM tote 😉 in Navy hahaha
Lt. Ohura 😀 *Can you tell I’m a Trekkie? :D*

Zoe’s a very beautiful woman, but why dress her in this? And by Louis Vuitton? *I actually refused to believe this was by Vuitton– our fave bag brand* She ended up looking frumpy 🙁 I’m sad! Coz this gown didn’t do her beauty any justice at all 🙁 What do you peeps think? In a brighter color, would this have worked? Or if it was in black?
Another gorgeous woman with a wonderful voice, Leona Lewis.

I really love the color on her, but I think the dress got wrinkled too fast. Roberto Cavalli.
And of course, there were the men who rocked the ‘Globes:

Taylor, Gerard, Chace= Triple Treat 🙂 Yumminess personified ;D
If you ask me which gown I’d wear to the event (oye this is purely theoretical as this is not something that will happen *unless Mr. “This-Is-Sparta” Gerard Butler calls me and asks me to accompany him hahahaha*), I’d probably want to wear Diane Kruger’s *if I was as skinny as she is*  or Chloe Sevigny’s gown *which looks a LOT more comfy– room for food from the after-party!!*. It’s a toss- up!
How about you peeps? Whose gown would you choose?

  1. Hi, Mrs. T!

    If I were to go to an event (which will probably never happen..haha!), I pick Emily Blunt’s gown. It’s pretty, young and she wore it well. Although, fashion experts didn’t like it as much. Some commented that the white lining was distracting and the designer should’ve used a nude lining instead. I agree with them on that one. But nonetheless, it’s a beautiful gown and she looked great in it.

  2. I got my red carpet fill from Yahoo OMG, too! And I totally agree with you on Sandra’s BV dress. The material looked cheap. And about Diane Kruger’s dress, too! It was daring and pretty and she pulled it off! I can’t think of anyone else who could’ve worn that gown better. Emily Blunt rocked, too!

    I also liked Drew Barrymore’s look a lot, as well as Glenn Close, for a woman of her age…

    Jennifer Aniston looked like she was caught in the rain. LOL.

  3. best dressed for me would be kate hudson — her gown was super unique and avant garde, even the shoes 🙂

    the others… ho-hum lang…

    and i hate jennifer aniston’s hair! talk about the ‘just got out of bed’ look.

  4. i love how Christina Aguilera looks! so classy, not like the trash she used to look like before, post-genie-in-a-bottle! What’s up with Cher’s hand? why is it gray? bad lighting? Looks like she got up from a grave.. scary. I would wear Emily’s dress 🙂

  5. @daphneosena: Zoe is gorgeous though 🙂 But I’m not liking the dress. it looks kinda sloppy 😀

    @PBB: Lol tame her girls 😉

    @lele: Now that you mentioned it, it IS scary!!

    @rockmyworld3: I go check Meryl’s outfit 🙂 I didn’t seeeee

    @Vhanya: I love Kate’s dress too!

    @roxy831: lol post genie in a bottle 😀 And thank you for linking me! 🙂 🙂 🙂

    @browneyedgirl: I love too!! 🙂 Jennifer Aniston’s hair was so messy, no?

    @Kat: Can’t agree with you more–

    @nanayniisay: Yes! I didn’t even realize the lining is white til you pointed it out 😉
