66th Annual Golden Globes Awards

So just in case there hasn't been enough reviews on the Golden Globes fashion, here is another one!

Best Dressed -

January Jones - January looks like a modern-day Cinderella. Her hair looks stunning, and the red lipstick tops it all off. Easily best dressed of the night.

Worst Dressed -
Angelina Jolie - Oh, honey.

Most Fun -


Heidi Klum - Love Love Love it! She looks like she could be Carrie Bradshaw

Honorable mentions -Elizabeth Banks - The colour, shape, detail of the dress are perfect. The hair is beautiful and accessories are right on.


Kate Beckinsale - I don't even know where to begin with the dress, everything about it is perfection. I just think something different with the hair could have worked.


Anne Hathaway - There are no words.


Cameron Diaz - love the dress, hate the hair. Kudos for the colour though!


Amanda Seyfried - The dress is lovely, hair and make-up are stunning but the something is missing which makes it breath-taking.


Vanessa Hudgens - Although she looks a little tired and well, sick, Miss Hudgens has definately got style and this dress is absolutely stunning.

Horrible Mentions -


Blake Lively - The dress could have been nice, if it fitted! The hair looks too ratty for the dress and even though you can't see them, the shoes so don't go.


Miley Cyrus - Euck. Hair is horrible, Dress is awful, and she looks like Pamela Anderson with her tits hanging out like that!


Olivia Wilde - Let's not even go there.

So on sunday I went and saw an acoustic gig at The Hive (an acoustic venue in Brisbane). The bands who played were – Jake Wood, The Attendance, Ladies and Gentlemen and ELLINGTON. It was only $10, and believe me, it was worth every cent.

Jake Wood started the afternoon off with some lovely vocals accompanied by his guitar. After not seeing him play for a while, he sounded like he had improved a great deal, or maybe I just had forgotten how great he always was! Either way, he played a great set.

Next up, The Attendance played. The 4 boys confessed to not being used to playing acoustically, but they did an amazing job. They were a delight to watch and were very enjoyable. The only let down is that the demo of theirs I picked up only has two songs on it! Not nearly enough!

For the next act, Ladies and Gentlemen were up. These lads are a favourite of mine, I saw them last time they were up from Sydney, and I have to say, they do not disappoint! I highly recommend you checking them out, they have a great sound, and even though they played an “acoustic” set, they still managed to add some awesome sounds in, synth and the like. Their 5-song EP is very rad, but if I could have it my way it would be at LEAST double the length! although, I should just be happy that I got both the mentioned cd’s for free! :D

Lastly but definitely not least was ELLINGTON. Jake and Michael are basically musical geniuses, to say the least. They played a sensational set, with lovely vocals and guitar work. I always love the fact that Jake plays a right hand guitar and Michael plays a left. I know its not a deliberate decision to do that, but it always makes me smile. What I did not know before the gig was how lovely Michael’s voice is! I’ve never really heard him sing, and this was the first time I’ve actually seen him sing a solo part! He looked a little self-conscious, but he sounded wonderful! Like always, they were a pleasure to watch and I definitely think everyone should check them out! (and maybe buy a copy of their EP “The Joy We Keep In” or their new one, when it bloody comes out!)
