Our Post-Globes Shopping Spree, Starting at Just $55
The Golden Globes more than delivered when it came to the red carpet gowns. There was the ultrafeminine Carolina Herrera dress Taylor Swift chose, the Zac Posen on Sofia Vergara that left us breathless, and, of course, Jennifer Lawrence in Dior. But the numbers that made the biggest impact on us (and, therefore, are most likely to leave a mark on our credit card bill) were the metallic silvers and golds.
Women like Michelle Dockery and Kate Mara gave us perfect examples that we'll be seeking to mimic at our next cocktail party. The color and shine feel rich but still appropriate for a night out at even the diviest of bars. And that sort of flexibility is worth paying for, any day.
