2019 Golden Globes Red Carpet

Our host and new Golden Globe winner, Sandra Oh, in Atelier Versace

I’ve been looking forward to writing this post all day, but I usually have to wait until the end of the show for all of the photos to come through. This year’s Golden Globes is special to me. As I get older, I have the opportunity to watch more of the films and shows being nominated than when I was a kid. I also am able to comprehend more of it. There are quite a few things that I’m particularly excited about this year. Sandra Oh was nominated and won and co-hosted the evening. Crazy Rich Asians was nominated and while they didn’t win, the nomination is huge. Lastly, the outfits on the red carpet were outstanding. As I was watching the red carpet today, I already knew it was going to be hard to choose just five best looks for later.

Joanna Newsom wearing Rodarte with husband Golden Globe co-host Andy Samberg in Brunello Cucinelli

Jodie Comer in Ralph & Russo. Maybe my most favorite villain ever.

What Would I Do Without Giphy?

Sometimes…we do this thing where we speak in GIFs. You recall a commercial or a scene from a television show or a movie and nothing seems more appropriate when chatting with a friend than to recall it with one of these.

This happened tonight in the car with Veronica and I straight up at the end of my story just went… “Ja feel?”

She hasn’t seen 21 Jump Street yet; that’s okay. I am glad I can rely on Giphy to help me find this gem again.

Song of the Day

Cults – Go Outside

Today’s Song of the Day has a French-themed music video that stars Dave Franco (younger brother of James Franco) and Emma Roberts (niece of Julia Roberts.) I haven’t decided what my favorite part of the video is just yet – maybe it’s the theme of romanticism, the alluring song, or the fact that two stars on the rise are in it! Maybe it is just all of it.
