2010 Golden Globes Get the Look: Jane Krakowski (aka my twin)
So I would say that people tell me how much I look like 30 Rock’s Jane Krakowski oh about maybe four times a month and I really do love her makeup from last night’s 2010 Golden Globes. Here’s how to get the look from her makeup artist, Rebecca Restrepo:
“The overall inspiration was old hollywood with a modern twist. She wanted a chic and modern beauty look to match the look of her dress. I started by prepping the skin with a light moisturizer, then lightly applied COVERGIRL Simply Ageless concealer under the eyes using my ring finger followed by COVERGIRL Simply Ageless Foundation all over the skin with a wet sponge. I then applied COVERGIRL Simply Ageless Blush in Plush Peach with my fingers to the apples of her cheeks for a healthy glow and defined cheekbones. To finish the face, I lightly dusted COVERGIRL Microminerals FInishing Veil to set the look and create a soft shimmer look.
On her eyes, I used COVERGIRL Eye Enhancers 4-kit in Sheerly Nudes, applying the taupe shade all over the lid and along the lash line to the crease. I then added a touch of the lightest cream shade to the inner corner of the eye for a subtle pop. To add a bit of definition, I applied a gray matte shadow to the crease. For added drama, I lined her eyes with COVERGIRL Line Exact in black. To finish the eyes, I applied two coats of COVERGIRL LashBlast Volume followed by two coats of COVERGIRL LashBlast Length for dramatic, long lashes.
On her lips I applied a shear coat of COVERGIRL Lipstain in Teasing Blush followed by COVERGIRL Amazemint Lip Gloss in No Care Bare to soften the lip color and add just a hint of shine. “

2010 Golden Globes gifting suite
So I was lucky enough to get invited to an a-mazing Golden Globes gifting lounge – THE Hospitality Suite by Live Loyal PR and EMC Bowery at the Pascal Mouawad Estate. It was at a crazy amazing house in the Hollywood Hills and I had a great time. Check out my full report on TheLuxurySpot.com. And yes, that IS Angelina “the Kim Kardashian of Staten Island” in the photo with the girls of Jersey Shore.

The Beverly Hills 90210 tour, as created by moi
So the rain has cometh here in the normally sunny Califor-i-a. Luckily for me, I managed to talk my friends into going on an old school 90210 tour with me last Saturday. We laughed, we ate Chipotle, we drove all. over. Los Angeles to find the houses of the epic cast of the original Beverly Hills 90210. Enjoy. BTW- none of these houses are actually in Beverly Hills. Go figure.
Yes it is. It’s Casa Walsh- home to Jim, Cindy, Brandon and Brenda and then eventually Steve and Valerie. Yup. I almost melted.
Dylan McKay’s house which, ironically enough, was only four houses down from Casa Walsh.
My friends in front of Steve Sanders’ high school house. That Samantha Sanders did pretty well for herself, huh?
Kelly Taylor’s high school house (and Jamie C. on the right).
Stay tuned- Kelly and Donna’s beach house and West Bev High are on the list for this weekend!

2010 Golden Globes fashion recap
So I’ll admit that I wasn’t completely “wowed” by any one dress or look but overall, the tone was safe but very girly. Lots of purples and nudes! Here are my four fashion favorites…
Drew Barrymore’s dress isn’t a color that I could ever wear but my friends and I completely fell in love with (and screamed) when we saw the beautiful adornments on her shoulder and hip. Normally I’m not a fan of that sort of thing but Atelier Versace pulled it off just right.
Olivia Wilde is definitely my number one for the night in her Gucci (can’t lose) sparkly black gown. It’s sexy yet actually kind of looks comfortable. WIN.
Jennifer Aniston showed off some serious leg in this black Valentino couture dress. She normally plays it pretty safe but the high slit makes this slightly more daring that her usual LBD.
Maggie Gyllenhaal is definitely another winner of the night. I’m loving the origami style front of this peach dress – RM by Roland Mouret is lesser known than all the Versaces and Valentinos of the night which is surprisingly nice.
