Golden Globes 2013: Welcome to the Golden Globes, arctic edition

It’s a chilly 56 degrees in L.A. today. So will Hollywood shiver its way down the red carpet or cover up with capes and furs?

Shiver, at least judging from the strapless early arrivals. I guess you don’t spend all those hours at SoulCycle to cover up.

So far, I haven’t been wowed by any of the gowns. Debra Messing is in a rather simple Donna Karan strapless black ruched silk organza creation, and Claire Danes is in an equally understated red carpet red halter gown by Versace.

Julianne Hough’s white Monique Lhuillier gown with gold, shard-like beading on the bodice has a little more spunk. I’m also digging her edgy hair, which is teased into a kind of faux hawk.

Nicole Richie, for one, did opt for warmth. She’s wearing a long-sleeved pale blue beaded lace Naeem Khan gown, with her hair in loose waves. Smart gal.
