My Take on Golden Globe Fashions

Disclaimer: I'm not a fashionista. My wardrobe is built around three basics: black, grey and turtlenecks. Only my fashion-forward best friend saves me from dressing too "matronly" (most of the time).

I do, however, enjoy checking out red carpet fashions and so this past Sunday, I curled up on the couch to watch the stars strut their stuff at the Golden Globes. What a disappointment.

Here's what I saw: re-purposed Christmas decorations (Angelina Jolie), a bed sheet (Natalie Portman), a deranged high school principal (Robert Downey, Jr.), drapery tassels (January Jones), my grandma's couch (Michelle Williams), Santa's toy sack (Julianne Moore) and LOTS of tragic hair (Al Pacino, Amy Adams, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Lea Michele, Robert Downey, Jr., Sandra Bullock).
