Golden Globes 2016: Best Dressed

10 January, 2016 Nelia

Golden-Globes-2016-Olivia-WIlde-Michael-Kors
I usually love to watch the Golden Globes live – from the red carpet arrivals to the show itself – I find it more entertaining than almost any other award show. But this weekend, I simply forgot all about it! So this Best Dressed list was based on photos and photos alone. To tell you the truth, it was a bit challenging selecting 10 favourite looks, as a lot of celebrities and their stylists opted for either been-there-seen-that, or snoozeville looks. With that said, here are my faves.

Olivia Wilde is not my usual style favourite. Her style is uneven at best, but this time, in this oxblood Michael Kors Collection gown, she looks ravishing (if we overlook her demon-like eye makeup). The dress fits her like a glove, the colour suits her skin tone, and while I think that necklace is completely unnecessary, she still looks mighty good. Bonus points for keeping it real and rocking a pair of great custom-made ALDO heels (#WearCanada FTW!).

Golden-Globes-2016-Cate-Blanchett-Givenchy
It’s no secret that Cate Blanchett is a superior human being, and as such, she would probably make this list no matter what she decides to put on, but it helps when she shows up in a visually-arresting Givenchy gown. I wish some of those strings/dress hairs weren’t so stringy, but beggars can’t be choosers. Other than a stray string or two, Cate The Great looks impeccable, no surprise here.

Golden-Globes-2016-Kate-Bosworth-Dolce-and-Gabbana
I’m not sure why Kate Bosworth was at the Globes tonight, but the fact is, the woman’s got style. This sequinned Dolce & Gabbana gown looks great on her, the print is interesting, and I love that she chose minimal accessories, letting the dress shine.

Golden-Globes-2016-Alicia-Vikander-Louis-Vuitton
Alicia Vikander is quickly becoming my new favourite. Even the fact that she’s dating my boyfriend Michael Fassbender can’t stop me from liking her. She’s marvellous in The Danish Girl, and has been killing it at every event she attends. I am not madly in love with this Louis Vuitton gown, but she makes it work. I love the stripes, the criss-cross back, and the ruffles around the neckline; it’s both chic and simple, and in my opinion, it’s certainly one of the best looks of the night.
More after the jump!

Thakoon Spring 2011 at The Room

15 November, 2010 Nelia

Last month, The Bay held an intimate cocktail reception to welcome New York designer Thakoon Panichgul to Toronto for the very first time. And after previewing his Spring 2011 collection, it is quite apparent why Thakoon is adored by such famous women as Anna Wintour, Michelle Obama, Demi Moore, and Sarah Jessica Parker, among others. His clothes are feminine and romantic, without being too girlie, his use of decorative detailing is innovative, but not overdone – Thakoon makes beautiful modern clothes for modern women.

There were lovely gowns in gorgeous blues, snakeskin patterns, hits of yellow, grey and rose, leather bangles, velvet, knits, and silks…oh, my! I’ll take it all, please and thank you! Ok, but in all seriousness, the chunky-knit cardigan (below) is definitely something I would wear all-through the winter, spring, fall, and even chilly summer evenings – my favorite piece from the collection, hands down!

Another highlight of the night was actually meeting Thakoon in person. The designer was charming and down-to-earth; he shared his insights on social media, Toronto, and the kind of woman he designs for. His charisma definitely shines through his clothes – Thakoon is a man that understands women, and makes clothes that make women look and feel amazing.

Thakoon is available at The Room at The Bay, and if you still haven’t seen the collection, you must check it out! Oh, and if you’re picking up an early Christmas gift for me, that yellow/grey cardigan has my name on it!
