Golden GLOBED 2012: Best & Worst on the Red Carpet

This years Golden Globes had most celebrities flaunting in the nude/beige trend while others opted for bright yellows. Not so much of a range of color, but style was totally in question with some of the choices our A-list celebs had picked.. What were they thinking?

Here are a few of my top picks and least faves of the evening...

Fave! Lea Michele in Marches. This style will always remind me of Halle Berry's '06 Oscars dress.

Fave! Absolutely love Sofia Vergara in Vera Wang. She always impresses me!

Fave! Selma Hayek in Gucci. The Egyptian-esque design reminds me of the 1920's avaunt-garde.

Hated It! Freida Pinto in Prada. Looks like a curtain held together by a string of leather.

Fave! Evan Rachel Wood in Gucci. Love the transition from sequence to feathers.

Hated It! Michelle Williams in Jason Wu. Really? That's what you're wearing to the GG?

Hated It! Natalie Portman in Lanvin. What were you thinking?? You look like a rejected cupcake!

Hated it! Elizabeth McGovern in Giorgio Armani. So unflattering! Did Armani just cut two different dresses & sew 'em together?

Fave! Elle Macpherson in Zac Posen. I saw this dress and thought, "That would be a great wedding dress!"

Fave! Laura Dern in Andrew Gn. Looking like an emerald trophy! Keepin' it classy, Dr. Sattler.

Hated It! Morena Baccarin in Edition by Georges Chakra. WHAT is going on with your cleavage there??

Fave! Nicole Richie in Julian Macdonald & Neil Lane. Simple & Classy.

Hated It! Ariel Winter in Dolce & Gabbana - yet another rejected cupcake.

Fave! Nancy O'Dell in THEIA. A classic cut, seen in different colors and by different designers, she still made it looks so good!

Fave! Jane Fonda in Jack Guisso. Jane, you are absolutely GORGEOUS! 74 & still hot!

Richard Mosse's 'Infra' Series

Deep magenta-colored trees, tall blades of pink grass and rolling violet hills...

This is what you will see in the upcoming 'Infra' series at the Open Eye Gallery in Liverpool. Richard Mosse, the photographer responsible for the beautiful images of war-torn Congo, used an infrared film by Kodak called Aerochrome, a false-color reversal film.

As a result, all greens have turned into colors you would normally find in a Dr. Seuss story. See more images at Mosse's site.

Notice the "Lick That Shit" t-shirt..
