golden robes

Today was the announcement of the Golden Globe nominations. They are actually a pretty great bunch of nominees: four of my favorite movies of the year made it in the Best Picture - Drama lineup (Up in the Air, The Hurt Locker, Precious, and Inglourious Basterds). I'm reserving judgment on Avatar until I see it.

I thought it would be fun to a little style retrospective on memorable Golden Globe dresses!

The Golden Globes didn't really become a TV sensation until the mid-90s so it's hard to find decent pics!

What are your faves?!

OK, this is the first dress I think of when I remember past GG's. It really looked awesome on Kim Basinger. I like how 1950s-ish it is, appropriate because she won for L.A. Confidential.

Kate looked very classy winning two Globes in a smart Yves Saint Laurent.

OK, this 2000 pick may be controversial but I remember thinking how pretty this Vera Wang was on Tyra. Pastels were in that year.

SJP in Chanel. 2004.

Love the shoos!

Freida Pinto so pretty in Christian Lacroix.

Before the infamous swan dress was Bjork's memorable sequined MJ tribute!

I loved Drew's hair here. And this color. She is fun.

2009 celeb style retrospective

Here are some of my favorite looks from 2009. I'm sure there are many I'm missing!

Are there any that you love or would add? Any trends you noticed this year?

In 2009, Michelle Obama kicked off a new era, experimenting with color, shapes and patterns and always looked great! I think she was the most influential in terms of style for the year. Many of her looks could be translated into something wearable and affordable. I always love what she wears. Check out First Lady of Style & NY Mag's The Cut for a retrospective.

Remember Sarah Jessica Parker in this vintage 1980s Emanuel Ungaro plaid getup? Loved it, even though it looked like it kept falling off. She kicked off the new year just right. Thanks to The Style Collective for the image.

Kate Winslet won the Oscar for The Reader and looked stunning in Yves Saint Laurent.

M.I.A was memorable at the Grammys.

2009 saw the release of the docu The September Issue. Anna Wintour and Sienna Miller looked great at the premiere in Thakoon and Prada respectively.

Breakout star Carey Mulligan also represented Thakoon at September Issue premiere.

Charlotte Gainsbourg at Cannes.

Also at Cannes, Eva Longoria. Though, I'm not sure why she was there? But the Atelier Versace was gorgeous nevertheless.

Kanye had a rough year but I still think he's creative a male artist with the most interesting style. No one can pull of denim jackets and bowties like him!

Little Edie unlocked a lot of style inspiration for Drew Barrymore.

Lady GaGa pulled out a lot of stops with flamboyant outfit changes at the VMAs.

The 2009 Costume Institute Gala at the Met brought out some incredibly awesome frocks. Thanks Le Chic Batik for image!

Iman at Glamour Women of the Year awards in Jason Woo.

Michelle Williams looking lovely at the Independent Film Awards.

Loved this geometric Versace dress (with hints of mint green!) from Mad Men's January Jones on the Emmy red carpet.

A sampling of the many looks of Rihanna.
