2015 Golden Globes Best Dressed

The Golden Globes happened this past week and with that we are officially in awards season! As usual, I did not catch the live broadcast, but instead stayed up to date on all the red carpet goodness and winners through Twitter.  Highlights for me included: Tina Fey and Amy Poehler hosting because they are flawless and should host everything and, yes, women can be funny; Gina Rodriguez's win for Jane the Virgin because she's a wonderfully charming actress in a wonderfully charming and underrated show and the win was totally deserved (and historical! as it was the CW's first ever Globe win); How To Train Your Dragon 2's win for Best Animated Feature because while I do LOVE me some The Lego Movie, this movie was just magical and gave me all the feels; and Matt Bomer's win because it gave me the opportunity to see more of Matt Bomer. Anyway, this is a fashion post, so let's talk fashion. Here are my totally random top picks for Best Dressed at the Golden Globes.

Emma Stone - Lanvin

Not sure how I feel about that giant bow/cape thing, but it does add something and leave it to Emma to always try something different and look fashion forward and fresh. I wouldn't love this nearly as much if it were dress.

Jenna Dewan-Tatum - Carolina Herrera

I'm surprised how much I loved the color yellow at the Globes. Also surprised at how much I love this dress as the shape is a little odd especially around the middle. I think Jenna's just really working it, the contrast with her dark hair is fantastic.

 Reese Witherspoon - Calvin Klein

Simple, classic, elegant - very Reese.

 Naomi Watts - Gucci

New trend alert! Snake necklaces are in (Kate Beckinsale also rocked one at the AMAs) as is the aforementioned color yellow.

 Lupita Nyong'o - Giambattista Valli

I love how much fun Lupita has with her red carpet fashion choices, especially when it comes to color! You know she's always going to pop and look lovely in whatever she wears and this was no exception. Such a show stopper. Also her, makeup is divine.

Leslie Mann - KAUFMANFRANCO

More yellow! Love the surprise pop of green in the earrings and clutch!

Kate Beckinsale - Elie Saab

Kate looks gorgeous as usual. I love the sparkly top, the flawy bottom, and the accessories (big earrings are a guilty pleasure of mine even if not always flattering). My favorite little detail are the black nails - something so small yet I feel like it just elevates the look to another level.

Amy Adams - Atelier Versace

Super safe - I feel like she's worn something like this many times before, but the color is just oh so perfect on her.

2012 MET Gala: Best Dressed

Next to the Academy Awards, the MET Gala, this year honoring Elsa Schiaparelli and Miuccia Prada, is probably my most looked forward to fashion event. Stars and designers really step up their game, and the result is a fashion lover's dream. I was impressed with so many of this year's looks! So many stars, so many amazing gowns!! But along with so many hits, there were some monumental misses (Worst Dressed post coming soon - haven't done one of those in a while!). Because it was so difficult for me to rank the looks, instead of my usual Top 10, here are my 15 favorite looks in no particular order (except for the first two).

Ashley Greene - Donna Karan Atelier

My favorite look of the night! She looks head-to-toe flawless.

Nina Dobrev - Donna Karan Atelier

Nina kills it (as usual) at her first MET Gala appearance.

Scarlett Johansson - Dolce & Gabbana

I like it, but probably would have looked even better with soft pink lips.

Gisele Bundchen (with Tom Brady) - Givenchy

I feel like I've definitely seen this dress before, but it's gorgeous and she rocks it either way.

Amy Adams - Giambattista Valli Haute Couture

Classic and simple, she looks so lovely and elegant.

Marion Cotillard - Christian Dior

Not sure what's going on with her hair, but I love the gradient effect of the gown.

Emily Blunt (with John Krasinski) - Calvin Klein

I love the color and the back looks amazing!

Emma Roberts - Escada

Another great bold color, I love that she paired it with the thin royal blue belt.

Dianna Agron - Caroline Herrara

I love how soft and feminine this look is - and again, amazing color! 

Jessica Alba - Michael Kors

Love the Old Hollywood 1940s look with retro curls and ruby red lips.

January Jones - Versace

I can't help but think Silk Spectre from Watchmen, but she does look great.

Katharine McPhee - Elie Saab

She looks phenomenal in this so-on-trend tangerine color.

Hilary Swank - Michael Kors

Love the rushing and color (there seems to be a trend here), although I probably would have styled it a little differently.

Lea Michele - Diane von Furstenburg

Still think she's trying too hard, but I love the color on her and the fit is great.

Rashida Jones - Tory Burch

The dress is pretty and all, but this is probably more on my list because I love Rashida so much <3
