The 2016 Golden Globes: Fashion Highlights and Winners

Hello everyone! It’s me thefakesamjoseph. How have you all been? I’ve missed you all! Luckily, it’s that time of the year again when all of the stars gather together in their best designer gowns and strike their best pose on the red carpet. Some of them even win an award too. Everyone knows the Golden Globes kick off the 2016 awards season by celebrating the best in film and television. It’s only natural that I kick off 2016 on Black Chick Media with some Golden Globes fashion and winners highlights right? Let’s get started!

My top three best dressed of the night are in no particular order, but my first selection is none other than the beautiful and talented Viola Davis. She literally shined last night in her Marchesa gown that she styled perfectly with Jacob & Co. jewels, Stuart Weitzman shoes, and a Judith Leiber clutch. While she didn’t win the globe as I had hoped last night, she was an immediate fashion winner in my eyes as soon as the stepped onto the red carpet.

My next fashion winner was also the winner of the Golden Globe for Best Actress in a TV Series, Drama. Taraji P Henson looked elegant and sophisticated last night in her custom ivory silk Stella Mccartney dress she paired with Kimberly McDonald earrings set with Gemfields Zambian emeralds and a gold chain Falabella clutch. While she may have risked train of her dress being stepped on a few times, I think payoff from her bold fashion risk was worth it.

My next fashion winner surprised me with her Golden Globe win last night (though it was well deserved) but she didn’t surprise me with her fashion game. Kate Winslet looked classy as usual in her figure hugging Ralph Lauren Collection gown she adorned with glitzy Neil Lane jewelry. The color paired well with the Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role in a Motion Picture for her work in Steve Jobs.

The 87th Annual Academy Awards Winners List

Hello everyone!

It’s me, thefakesamjoseph and this morning I bring you news of last night’s incredible and star studded 87th Annual Academy Awards, hosted by Neil Patrick Harris. Hollywood’s biggest night was nothing short of amazing, from the red carpet fashion, to the performances, to the awards themselves. Some of the the best moments from the night include host Neil Patrick Harris’s opening performance, an entertaining and well executed tribute to all the films that were nominated last night, Patricia Arquette’s incredible acceptance speech calling for equal wages for women, John Legend and Common performing their awe inspiring “Glory”, and Lady Gaga’s Sound of Music Tribute culminating with an emotional embrace with the one and only, Julie Andrews.

Before treating you to the list of winners, I’d like to take a few moments to share my top three fashion favorites from last night. While the night was full of stellar looks from Hollywood’s starlets, in my opinion, these three ladies stopped the show before it even started. In no particular order the best dressed of the night were Chrissy Teigan in Zuhair Murad, Rosamund Pike in Givenchy, and Lupita Nyong’o in custom Calvin Klein. Bravo to these stunning ladies in successfully, and unsurprisingly, turning heads with their ensembles last night. To see more red carpet fashion and to make your own picks for best looks of the night, head over to oscar.go.com/redcarpet.

Now with the fashion highlights out of the way, let’s move on to the list of winners.
