Girls TMI Is So Outdated Girls Season 4 Episodes 1-2 recap (Warning – content at the bottom of the page is NSFW) Of course I watched that GIF all week. Who didn’t watch that GIF all week?

Lifestyle Duana Names: All over the place I have a friend who could really use your advice. She has two girls, Rory and Brooklyn and baby number 3 is on the way. The thought of going through childbirth again is really stressing her out, and not having a few names ready isn’t helping the situation! She By Duana • Jan 14, 2015 12:53 pm
Bad Style Amy Adams: Globes Worst Dressed (Duana) Oh, Amy Adams. Amy Adams. I have never really gotten Amy Adams. One day last week – two weeks ago? – I got a letter from someone who was I guess reading back through the archives, and was very angry with how mean I had been to Amy Adams. Months ago. I By Duana • Jan 12, 2015 12:25 pm
Golden Globes 2015 Claire Danes: Globes Best Dressed (Duana) Sometimes I can’t believe the things that Ryan Seacrest says on the red carpet. I realize that at this point the red carpet is basically every sixth day so he’s got to say something, but come on. He asked Julianna Margulies what she did for New Years. For By Duana • Jan 12, 2015 12:04 pm
Golden Globes 2015 Robin Wright & Kate Mara: Would-be Globe Pairings One of the things about all the people we write about is that they mostly exist in a bubble. Like, Oprah knows them all, but largely speaking you don’t have a lot of Viola Davis and Keira Knightley making a buddy comedy together. They don’t run into each By Duana • Jan 12, 2015 09:58 am
Golden Globes 2015 Keira Knightley in Chanel at the Globes Why don’t I hate this? I don’t. Like it’s not daywear, I think we’re all kind of clear on that, but to me Keira Knightley is the actual personification of what Manic Pixie Dream Girl wants to be. Like she’s sort of effortlessly ethereal but By Duana • Jan 12, 2015 09:08 am
Golden Globes 2015 Anna Kendrick: Globes Cinderella Ballgown Appropriate, right? The Monique Lhullier? Evocative for Cinderella? I didn’t hate it, but never was there an outfit that could have cried out more for a red lip! I don’t think Anna Kendrick is a little girl or anything but sometimes the whole red carpet thing is like By Duana • Jan 12, 2015 08:40 am
Golden Globes 2015 Katie Holmes: Globes Ponytail What’s the word for when you cannibalize your own jokes on Twitter? Is there a word for when you punch up said jokes several hours later? Here’s the 2:30 AM version: There are four year olds who have more mature speaking voices than Katie Holmes. Then there By Duana • Jan 12, 2015 07:35 am
Golden Globes 2015 Reese Witherspoon: Globes least visible I thought she’d be good for a few cutaways, at least. I didn’t pay too much attention when she was on the carpet with Cheryl Strayed because the sushi was arriving and I knew Seacrest wouldn’t ask about Strayed being Sugar like I wanted him to. But By Duana • Jan 12, 2015 06:35 am
Golden Globes 2015 Jessica Chastain: Globes Red Carpet Irony This is the best dress that she has worn in a very long time, right? It seems to happen a lot. Jessica Chastain has been in the white-hot whirlwind of being in contention for an award and needing to not put a foot wrong, and a really calculated list of By Duana • Jan 12, 2015 06:02 am
Golden Globes 2015 Lupita Nyong’o: Globes Best Glasses Her purple lilac dress was stunning. It wasn’t just a lovely colour, the design of it was such that the colour seemed to drip down her body from her chest, as though she was covered in purple paint. Amazing. But the dress is only 80% of the equation. Her By Duana • Jan 12, 2015 05:50 am
Golden Globes 2015 Anna Faris & Chris Pratt: Globes Battle of the Network Stars Is that the oldest, lamest reference? It started before I was born! But this is what they are. Anna Faris and Chris Pratt are two of the few stars who are actually on Network TV anymore – Amy Poehler is, of course, another one. So not to put too much weight By Duana • Jan 12, 2015 05:36 am
Golden Globes 2015 Julianne Moore: Globe Joy Gorgeous is thrown around a lot. We use it all the time, probably too much. (Even though I do not regret at all that I used it to describe Lorelei Linklater who probably should have gotten more screen time.) But Julianne Moore is gorgeous. She is luminous. That dress was By Duana • Jan 12, 2015 05:22 am
Bad Style Kerry Washington: Globes Risk-taker When I was about nine, I found these shoes. Like I can see them plain as day. They were oxfords. Magenta with purple in the saddle part, stiff Kelly-green soles.The laces were sky-blue-and-white. My mother bought them for me even though I was probably going to grow out of By Duana • Jan 12, 2015 04:08 am
