This week kicked off with one of the beauty highlights of the year, the Golden Globe Awards. Not everyone felt my Zooey love, or that Michelle Williams’ headband was appropriate on someone well out of her tweens… but I think we all came together on the sentiment that Claire Danes really needs better people. I mean, come on—they couldn’t hand the girl some blotting sheets before going up there?
