Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Bel Powley’s two hits of green Two events on Saturday and both themed around green. The black sheer dress is exquisite, and I like how the bright silk outfit, while quite busy, is grounded by the stripe at the waist. By Lainey • Jan 12, 2016 11:22 am
David Bowie David Bowie David Bowie’s birthday was on Friday which is also when he released his final album, Blackstar. But isn’t that the most elegant exit?

Intro for January 12, 2016 Dear Gossips, Oscar campaigning is like Homecoming election in high school for prom king and queen. There are factions. And, after the Golden Globes on Sunday, the factions are apparently mobilising.

Bad Style Katy Perry: Globes Worst Dressed (Lainey) There are some who don’t think this dress is all that bad. That it’s the hair that’s the problem. F-ck that. The dress doesn’t get a pass, not at this stop. I’ll never, ever condone a taffeta, not even when it’s cut close to By Lainey • Jan 11, 2016 04:06 pm
Bad Style Kate Hudson: Globes Worst Dressed (Duana) I struggled with choosing Kate Hudson for Worst Dressed. Not because the dress isn’t bad, of course – the dress is very bad. But usually when someone shows up in a dress like this, it’s kind of cheating to call them ‘worst dressed’. A Bai Ling or a Phoebe By Duana • Jan 11, 2016 03:43 pm
Style Brie Larson: Globes Best Dressed (Duana) Again, this surprises even me. This dress is not my style. I don’t mind risks and cut-outs in theory, but in practice they often seem too extreme or pointed or something.

And, well, I’m not sure anyone wants that association. Because it was getting tired. JLO is not an idiot about her look, her aesthetic. You were expecting something By Lainey • Jan 11, 2016 03:06 pm
Top Reads The Revenant: Globes winner, and apparently an issues movie When Leonardo DiCaprio won his Golden Globe for Best Actor for The Revenant, he said that it’s time we take back the land for the First Nations, or something.

Golden Globes 2016 Viola Davis: Globes Unpopular Opinion This Viola Davis dress is intrinsically pretty. When I look at it in a still picture, and she’s beaming, it takes my breath away, actually. I get all the comparisons to a starry night. But here’s the unpopular opinion – I didn’t like it as much as some By Duana • Jan 11, 2016 02:39 pm
Top Reads Jennifer Lawrence & Amy Schumer: Globes Popular Girls Yes, it has happened. Amy Schumer and Jennifer Lawrence have become the popular girls. You know what I mean, of course.
