2014 Golden Globes Best Dressed

Happy Monday!!!
 
So, although I did not watch the Golden Globe Awards this year (Sorry, but REVENGE is off the chain lately) I did not miss the red carpet arrivals. I was really impressed for the most part. I think my biggest let downs were Julia Roberts & Drew Barrymore. Why ladies, why?
Julia Roberts, wore some sort of dress and men's shirt combo by Dolce & Gabana while a beautifully pregnant Drew Barrymore wore a flowery Monique Lhuillier. I didn't get either one of the ensembles. Either way, I wasn't focusing too much on the negative, I mean, how could you when you have these stunners (pictured below) walking by.
 
Lets start with my absolute favorite, Maria Menounos in a Max Azria Atelier gown. WHOA x 100!! This beautiful hot pink gown was elegant and racy. Right up my alley. Major props Ms. Menounos, you were sizzling.
 
My 2nd favorite is Ms. Lupita Nyong'o. The beautiful tangerine/red of this Ralph Lauren dress against her gorgeous, perfect chocolate brown skin, just blows my mind. I was not a fan or her hair, but everything else was just so elegant and beautiful, that it just didn't matter.
 
My 3rd favorite is Ms. Colombia, Sophia Vergara, in a gorgeous, and I mean gorgeous, Zac Posen gown. This woman just exudes sexy in everything that she wears. I was not a big fan or the Lorraine Schwartz necklace, but I will admit that the pop of blue is perfection. Bellisima Sophia!!!
 
My 4th favorite is Ms. Olivia Wilde in a gorgeous Emerald/Dark Green, embellished Gucci gown. I cannot tell you how much I love the fact that she rocked this dress, belly and all. She is beautiful, looks beautiful pregnant and I love her edge. Who said Mom's cant ROCK IT?!!
 
My 5th favorite is the always HOT Ms. Kate Beckinsale in a Zuhair Murad trumpet dress. I love the wham of the silver/ grey embellishments of the dress paired with the simple and elegant Chopard jewels.
 
In conclusion, I think everyone looked great and congratulations to all the winners, whoever they are.

F^@K Everything, Be happy

Its almost Friday ya'll!!!
 
My book for 2014 is now open and its pages are blank. I plan to fill it with all the things that make me happy and in order to achieve this, I have to say F%$# it/you a little more. I mean, I don't literally have to say F^%$ it/you, but you know what I mean. At times I can be a bit of a prude, wanting to do whats "right" but what is "right" is now a relative term in my book.
so, F%$# IT!!! and other times I tend to agree or do things I don't necessarily want to do and that's when Ill say F%$# YOU!

So, as i make plans for this EPIC 2014, here are a few quotes that I will use as my mantra.

For what its worth, its never too late to be whoever you want to be. I hope you live a life you're proud of and if you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.
- Eric Roth

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sail.
Explore. Dream. Discover.
-Mark Twain

I hope you all have an inspiring year and that you do all of the things that make you happy. No matter who is watching or judging.
Live Free!

Xo,
Jess

F$^& Everything, Be happy
