BOLD Globe Inspired

Awards season is in full swing! The Golden Globe red carpet NEVER disappoints with the array of designer gowns & tux's in various colors & textures worn by the most talented actors in the biz. It's a fashion haven! Many actors say this is the awards event they love most, being more low key as they can get away with a little more on the red carpet as far as fashion goes. 
I love that so many fashion guru's & the like, have such strong opinions of what they vote as best and worst dressed. What pressure, right?! Would you want to be on the "worst" list? Ugh! How does one decide? Sarah Michelle Geller let her 2 year old daughter pick out her dress, handbag, shoes & jewels... some might say it showed and others are oohing over the Monique Lhuillier gown. I'm looking forward to hearing Joan Rivers tonight on Fashion Police to get her take on the many hits & misses this year.

There were some bold color choices last night  but I have to say Heidi Klum, Jessica Alba & Charlize Theron in the soft color palette tones were just as stunning. 

           

 I was really inspired by the more bold colors of these gorgeous gals below! Although not my favorite dresses of the evening, I do adore the bright colors that inspired me to find these more casual dresses at Nordstrom.com.  All are just under $200!

Did you see a look or gown that inspired you? Who would you have crowned best dressed?
