Golden Globes 2011-Nicole Kidman

I haven't seen Nicole Kidman's new movie Rabbit Hole (for which she was nominated for a Golden Globe) but I am a big fan of her work and her fashion sense. Kidman's GG dress, however, was a bit too safe for me. She seems to favor long, lean silhouettes lately and often wears her hair down and stick straight, which is great but I'd love for her to mix it up more. She looked beautiful but a bit boring. Her cream colored sequins Prada gown was elegant and I did like the subtle bow around the waist but, I didn't care for the blue and black pin that was attached to the one shoulder. It was distracting. Her black earrings got lost in her hair and didn't stand out. With such simple lines, I thought the earrings would be a great opportunity to make a statement. I would have loved to have seen a rich, bold hue, like dangling rubies or emeralds. Just a thought. Let's be honest, she's still a knockout and looked amazing but I just wanted more from her! In the past Kidman has taken more fashion risks and I wanted to see her make more of a splash on the red carpet this time. Thoughts!?

Kidman's face looked very soft and ethereal. Chanel makeup artist Angela Levin created her fresh face.

-Levin used Quadra Eye Shadow in Winter Nights ($57) for her eyes, with three coats of Inimitable Intense Mascara in Noir ($30) on the lashes.

-For Nicole's cheeks, Levin used Powder Blush in In Love ($43).

-Finally for her pout Levin used Rouge Allure Laque in Ming ($32).

I haven't given up on you Nicole! You're a total style star.
