0 69th Annual Golden Globe Awards: Who Wore What? Shailene Woodley in Marchesa Spring 2012

Shailene Woodley in Marchesa Spring 2012: Wow! This is how you break on to the scene! Shailene is the breakout star of the new George Clooney film "The Descendents" and she was also nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress.

And for someone who is new to the Red Carpet, Shailene certainly hit it out of the park on the first try! Note to all newcomers, contact Marchesa...it is hard to go wrong in their frothy creations by Keren Craig and Georgina Chapman..

She looked beautiful in this Silver Silk Tulle and Beaded Gown. Note how the outer layer of tulle was removed to create a more "Red Carpet Ready" hourglass silhouette.

0 69th Annual Golden Globe Awards: Who Wore What? Lea Michele in Marchesa Spring 2012

Lea Michele in Marchesa Spring 2012: My comment in the last post about Starlets going directly to Marchesa might not have worked so well for Lea Michele. After watching the Miss America Pageant last night, I fear that this dress veers ever too close to a Pageant Dress.

While this is probably the perfect dress for someone like Halle Berry, Lea Michele comes off looking a bit too Miss Oklahoma for my liking. On a positive note: I do like that the took away the peplum pieces at the waist!

0 69th Annual Golden Globe Awards: Who Wore What? Salma Hayek in Gucci Premiere

Salma Hayek in Gucci Premiere (Custom Gucci): Salma looked Hot, hot, hot! in her custom, made-to-order Gucci Premiere Gown. While it is similar to the recent Gucci Spring 2012 Collection it was an original design just for Ms. Hayek or should I say Mrs. Pinault.

Salma is married to François-Henri Pinault. He is the Chairman and CEO of PPPR which owns brands such as Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent, Bottega Veneta, Alexander McQueen and more...

In other words, she should be getting her underwear custom made as far as I'm concerned!

This Black and Gold Bugle Beaded Siren dress was a perfect marriage of 1920's influence, while allowing for a Va-Va-Voom Silhouette for Salma's petite and curvaceous figure.

0 69th Annual Golden Globe Awards: Who Wore What? Diane Lane in Reem Acra Pre Fall 2012

Diane Lane did NOT disappoint in this stunning Gold, Beaded, Tulle Gown by Reem Acra Pre Fall 2012.

I love everything about this look on Diane. The color, beading and silhouette gives her a regal, Hollywood Royalty look which is exactly what she should be portraying to the world. I also love how the dress, which is most likely the EXACT sample seen on the model on the right, looks perfectly age appropriate on both women.

0 69th Annual Golden Globe Awards: Who Wore What? Madonna in Reem Acra Pre Fall 2012

Madonna wore the above Silver Beaded and Black Tafetta Reem Acra Pre Fall 2012 Ball Gown to this years Golden Globe Awards.

It is not so much the dress that isn't working for me, but the way she accessorized the entire look. The black half glove with stacked Diamond Bracelets, Cross Necklace and lifeless hairstyle just make me confused.

Instead of making one strong Fashion Statement, she seems to be all over the place with this ensemble.

0 69th Annual Golden Globe Awards: Who Wore What? Nicole Kidman in Versace Spring 2012

Nicole Kidman in Versace Spring 2012: The photo here just doesn't do Nicole and this dress any justice. When you see her on the Red Carpet and on Stage she is incredibly striking and looks as if she could have actually walked the runway of the Versace show!

This was one of my favorite Versace Shows of recent season because it was such a direct reference to Gianni Versace and I love that she chose to wear this dress.

0 69th Annual Golden Globe Awards: Who Wore What? Claire Danes in J. Mendel Pre Fall 2012

Claire Danes chose the above Black and White Silk Crepe J. Mendel Pre-Fall 2012 Cocktail Dress for this year's Golden Globe Awards and she (or her stylist) wisely decided to customize it and make it into a stunning gown.

I LOVE the Art Deco Quality, the belted waist detailing and Bugle Beaded Overlay open back.

0 69th Annual Golden Globe Awards: Who Wore What? Julianna Margulies in Naeem Khan Spring 2012

Julianna Margulies wore this Naeem Khan Spring 2012 Plum Bugle Beaded Gown with Open Back and Sleeves.

At first glance, with it being so covered up in the front and severe chignon hairstyle, I wasn't quite sure if it was working for me. But as I reviewed more and more of the photos, it started to grow on me.

There are some absolute SHOW STOPPING Dresses on the Red Carpet tonight! So this might get lost in the crowd, so to speak.

0 69th Annual Golden Globe Awards: Who Wore What? Rooney Mara in Nina Ricci Pre Fall 2012

Rooney Mara stuck to her trend of wearing Black, Directional Silhouettes and chose to wear this Taffeta Nina Ricci Pre Fall 2012 Gown.

Rooney is always stunning and a striking presence on the Red Carpet, and I understand her continuing to stay close to the "Girl With The Dragon Tattoo" Brand, I just think there are even more interesting black dresses out there for her to choose from.

She did soften her look a bit by sweeping her bangs to one side which I think is a great look for her and let's us see that beautiful face.

What do you guys think?!

0 69th Annual Golden Globe Awards: Who Wore What? Sarah Michelle Gellar in Monique Lhuillier Spring 2012

Sarah Michelle Gellar in Monique Lhuillier Spring 2012. This Blue and White Taffeta Ink Swirl Print Ball Gown is sure to be a Love it or Hate it choice for the Fashion Pundits and viewers.

It certainly takes courage to wear a dress you have to know that people will say looks like a Warshak Ink Blot Test! She said that her daughter chose this dress and I'm thinking she might want to rethink taking that advice the next time she gets ready to hit the Red Carpet.

What do you think?!?
