Golden Globes; Hits & Misses

Every time I look at the best & worst dressed lists, there are always some I disagree with, so I'm sure there will be some here you will disagree with too.

For example, I have seen a lot of raves on Nicole Kidman's dress from the Golden Globes, but honestly, it does nothing for me.

This is my own personal list of the hits & misses of the outfits from the Golden Globes.

HIT

Amy Adams

Emily Blunt

Francesca Eastwood

Hayden Panettiere

Isla Fisher

Jennifer Lawrence

Kaley Cuoco

Kate Hudson

Kristen Bell

Michelle Dockery

Nicole Richie

Salma Hayek

Stacy Keibler

MISS

Taylor Swift
Really not loving the cut around the bust & the dress looks like it could use a good iron.

Debra Messing
I love her but she is just drowning in this.

Helena Bonham Carter
I love her, I just never seem to love her outfits

Jessica Chastain
If this was a better fit, it could have looked amazing.
I'm pretty sure I read on E! that she had a wardrobe malfunction at the after party, no surprises there,

Jennifer Lopez
We get it already, you have a banging body!
Not everything you wear needs to be so...naked

Katharine McPhee
I just think there's a bit too much skin here.
Her make up looks amazing though

Louise Roe
I find nothing about this outfit appealing

Lucy Liu
No. Just no.

Sienna Miller
Is this a dress? Or a top & skirt? I don't know.
Either way; me no likey.

Did I put anyone from your best dressed list on my worst?
Vice versa?
Let me know
:)

I hope everyone had a safe & happy new years.

After spending all day on the 31st at the hospital with my fiance, we weren't exactly in the mood to party so we just watched movies until a bit before midnight, flicked over to the fireworks, had our 12 o'clock kiss and then went to bed.

It seems most people are happy 2012 is over.
Personally I'd like to skip ahead to 2014 but that's just me.

2013 is going to be a challenge for me.
I've got a lot of goals and I am determined not to fail at any of them.

The main goal is to get my finances in order.
I've spent too long being frivolous and silly with my money.
I look at all the things I own and granted, I have some gorgeous things but there are so many pointless purchases, so much money spent on things I've never worn or used, or worse yet, things I've lost.

I've started reading some finance/saving blogs and have joined in some discussions on the topic on the vogue forums.
I find it really inspiring and the thought of saving and being wiser with my money is actually making me excited.

I can safely say that I won't have much of an issue with not buying new clothes as I have really lost the interest.
Lately, I seem to have completely lost the urge to shop. I just can't be bothered battling the crowds, trying on clothes or dealing with the wide range of rude retail staff that I seem to be encountering these days.

My two weaknesses are shoes & homewares.
I'm really going to have to work on these, especially the latter.
I'm such a sucker for teapots, cute coasters, photo frames, throw pillows & everything in between.

I'm going to have to work harder to make my blog more interesting as there will be very few posts on shopping hauls, expensive dinners or the like.

Do you have any goals for 2013?
I'd love to hear about them!
