And I'm back with another fashion post. I'm still cranking out my posts from my trip to Jordan and Israel, so keep checking back. They'll be back-dated, but you can always click on the Jordan/Israel label and get all the posts with that tag.
The red carpet at the Golden Globes this year certainly made up for last year's, which was really a non-event for me. This year's choices proved to keep my eye much better.
Viola Davis is just beautiful. The dark navy, the flowy skirt, the sheer fabric, the silvery sparkle. Though it was a bit busy with sparkle, she looked stunning. Just look at that smile.

Alicia Vikander, whoever she is, chose a white gown that looked a little bit like wainscoting or beadboard to me. I liked the fun, feminine look until I got a view from the side--the sides were non-existent. But from the front, I think it was a fun number.

Julianne's dress didn't blow me away, but I liked the color which went well with her coloring. I think I would have liked it a smidge better if the thing wrapped around her neck had been left out.

Amber Heard's flowy pink number by Gucci had a lovely, ethereal feel to me. The flowers circling the neckline were a nice touch with her matching lip stain. The pink/peach color variation was really pleasing too, soft on the eyes.
And then there's the teal and gold that Calista Flockhart wore. I love the color combo. The dress had a lot of potential, and I like it, but I think the neckline could've been different or maybe if there were well-placed seams in the bodice. But still, it looked great.
Keeping with the blues, Queen Latifah's gown caught my eye. She looked lovely. A fresh and clean look with a little sparkle is always a good choice.
Although her makeup and hair weren't as flattering as they could've been and I wished that she would've smiled, Uzo Aduba looked great in this black sequined gown. I haven't been able to learn the designer yet, but I'll update if I do. Simple with a bit of flair.
A surprise favorite, Olivia Palermo's short multi-colored dress was a break from my usual style, but it was fun and it worked on her slim frame.
Caitriona Balfe is just stunning. Isn't she? If you don't know her, she's the lead in Outlander. She spent years as a runway model, which is evident in her poise and the way she carries herself. Her black dress with the lacy tulle-like overlay and ruffly sleeves was great. Funky, but it works for me. Plus, I'm just in total awe of her, and frankly she wouldn't NOT make the list.
And then there was Sam. Blue got me again. Sam Heughan was the best dressed man at the Golden Globes. Again the deep blue with his reddish hair was just a great combo. Don't know Sam? Well, watch Outlander and become acquainted. I insist. You won't be sorry.
And there you have it. What were your favorites?
