Everyone else was disappointing. Jennifer Lopez was off the mark this time In a gold metallic black bowed strapless gown with a white taffeta ball gown skirt. Not her finest hour
Charlize Theron in a Bizzarre one shoulder toga gown with a black bustiers underwear piece showing. Not her finest hour either.

Sofia Vergara comes in as a runner up for best dressed. Even though it’s just another strapless gown, beautiful rust color, beautiful fit and just enough bling.

Overall, it was a disappointing night for Hollywood’s biggest party. Party dresses, pants suits, fun fashion is usually the way people dress for the Golden Globes. But not this year. Everyone played it very safe except for a few very bizarre pieces like on actress Jodi Comer.
