You wonder what happen if your favorite "Downton Abbey" characters were alive today and what would they be wearing, especially if they were invited to today's idea of a fancy ball?
Today's red carpet is the perfect confluence of where the hottest trends in clothes and makeup meet.
Last night's Golden Globe Awards are here to help you visualize and guide you.
Above, this is what Lady Edith Crawley would be wearing if she was invited to the Golden Globes. Here, the actress who plays her, Laura Carmichael, was wearing a
vintage James Galanos gown; it’s a one-shoulder, black, floor length
dress with a sequin starfish at her hip. Because the look was so
vintage, we went with a smoky charcoal gray to play up her almond,
doe-shape eyes and added a light blush and nude lip.”
NARS
worked with celebrity makeup artist Fabiola to create the red carpet
makeup look for Laura Carmichael at the 2015 Golden Globe Awards.
The Golden Globes is the first and ideal time to test-run a brand new invention and see how it works under the glare of flash bulbs and high-definition television close-ups.
Laura Carmichael was the lucky first to wear yet to be launched...
All Day Luminous Weightless Foundation (New for Spring 2015; for now try Sheer Matte Foundation) | Lysithea Dual-Intensity Eyeshadow | Adoration Dual-Intensity Blush (New for Spring 2015; for now try Bouthan Duo Eyeshadow...
Notably, the double-duty Dual-Intensity Blush.
There are already double-duty high-performance eyeshadows that can be used dry for a soft, sheer look then wet the same eyeshadows then they safely darkens and thickens for a deeper look. Keep your eyes out for NARS Dual-Intensity Blush.
If Carrie Mathison, in the Showtime series Homeland, what would she wear?
Claire Danes' hand-beaded Valentino gown made the decision factor in what NARS makeup to wear.
Celebrity makeup artist Matin,...
“When I saw Claire’s hand-beaded Valentino gown, I was immediately
struck with inspiration. We agreed that her eyes should be the focus so I
matched her eyeshadow to the gorgeous peacock blue of her dress to
create a brighter, edgier smoky look.”

What if "Orange Is The New Black" was paroled for the Golden Globes?
Makeup artist Tina Turnbow based the makeup selection on Taylor Schilling dressed up as
a younger, modern Grace Kelly in a red Ralph Lauren gown...
a younger, modern Grace Kelly in a red Ralph Lauren gown...
“The inspiration for Taylor’s look
was a younger, modern take on Grace Kelly. I wanted to play up her bone
structure, her skin and her natural beauty so we went with a clean eye,
bold brow and a crisp orange red lip to clash with the scarlet shade of
her Ralph Lauren gown.”
All Day Luminous Weightless Foundation (New for Spring 2015; for now try Sheer Matte Foundation) | Porto Venere Eye Paint (New for Spring 2015; for now try Abyssinia Matte Eyeshadow) | Red Square Velvet Matte Lip Pencil
What if you're a woman director?
"Selma" director, Ava DuVernay set the bar in her Zac Posen gown.
NARS International Lead Makeup Stylist Uzo,...
“The
look was about a woman in a position of power. Ava’s statement-making
makeup was kept soft and ethereal to balance her bold hairstyle and
architectural Zac Posen gown. I created a velvety, smoky chocolate eye
and soft neutral shades for her cheeks and lips.”
All Day Luminous Weightless Foundation (New for Spring 2015; for now try Sheer Matte Foundation) | Fez Shimmer Eyeshadow | Raquel Audacious Lipstick
for a polished look that umped the ante from the everyday, all-natural look. This is the evening look for the woman executive who needs to break out of her office-day makeup look.
For "Peter Pan/Girls" Allison Williams wearing Armani Prive, her makeup artist, Gianpaolo Ceciliato went for "Glamour with a Rock and
Roll Edge. We achieved this look with a glowing
complexion, bold smoky eye and nude lip.”
TIPS/TECHNIQUE: “For an instant, evenly bronzed glow, I swept St. Tropez One Night Only Instant Glow Body Lotion onto exposed skin using the Applicator Mitt to create luminous, dewy skin that just reflects the flashing lights of the camera. It dries in seconds and is waterproof and transfer resistant so we did not have to worry about Allison’s dress. For a smoky eye effect, I rimmed the entire eye very close to lash line with black pencil and covered the lid with Armani Eye Tint #1 (black) and #7 (gunmetal) to create shimmery dimension. I chose a beige lipstick with subtle shine to complete Allison’s look. The hue added enough color to her lips without competing with her bold red gown.”

Yes, it rained on Golden Globes Weekend. Well, it's in the middle of "L.A. Winter"; and that is to be expected so smart stylists are prepared to do the best in the middle of bad weather. Besides, L.A. needs moisture too.
For Allison's glossy tresses...
Despite
the rainy and cold weather in Los Angeles this weekend, sleek and
smooth hairstyles were all the rage on the red carpet. Actresses who
worry about frizz can rely on dpHUE's signature oil therapy to fight stray hairs and achieve silky beautiful strands.
Celebrity hair colorist and dpHUE creative director Justin Anderson,
who has colored some of the beauties for Golden Globes night including
Kelly Osbourne and Miley Cyrus, offered some of his tips on how to
achieve red carpet glamour every day!
1.
Oil is a must for colored hair. Color in general strips the natural
oils from hair so when coloring hair you have to add oils back in with
your routine. Add in a dime size of dpHUE Oil Therapy to your hair a
few times a week as a treatment or daily for an extra boost.
2. Don't over wash colored hair. Unless you have an overly active oily scalp you should never suds up every day. Use the dpHUE Apple Cider Vinegar rinse in place of a shampoo a few days a week, it cleans hair without stripping color and adds a lot of shine.
3. Don’t shampoo with hot water. If you have a rich shiny brunette hue or a bold red shade, washing your hair with hot water opens the cuticle immediately and releases the color. Save the warm water for your body (even though cold water is the way to go when trying to save our skin from drying out, but let your dermatologist convince you of that!) and wash your hair with slightly cooler water.

If Allison Williams' hair can be glossy, wavy, and sleek in the rain on the fanciest of day and night, imagine how we all look on a normal, rainy using dpHUE's signature oil therapy.
Another frizz-fighter on a rainy day when you need to look glamorous...
John Legend may have won the Golden Globe last night for Best Original Song but its Chrissy Teigen who stole the Red Carpet spotlight with her blush pink sheath gown and super chic, tousled pony.
Step 1: Apply Macadamia Professional Foaming Volumizer on wet hair before blow drying the whole head with a large round brush, to create ample volume at the roots and length
· Step 2: Use a 1-inch curling iron and curl the whole head in waves
· Step 3: Once the hair is set in waves, apply a generous dollop of Macadamia Professional Whipped Detailing Cream and run hands throughout the hair, using fingers to create supple separation and texture all the way through the ends
· Step 4:
Gather hair into a high pony tail, slightly below the crown. Tie the
pony into an elastic band and take a small section of hair from the
ponytail and wrap it around the elastic band covering it. Keep the pony
playful by using your fingers to open it up and make it wide, textured
and volumized
· Step 5:
Make sure it’s not too tight around the face by creating volume at the
front with separation. Leave some fly aways and small pieces on the
sides for an effortless look
· Step 6: Spray in place with Macadamia Control Working Spray to protect against humidity and set for a night out

Kate Hudson appear not her usual youthful, wholesome self. She was sleek and elegant in the rain thanks to David Babaii, Brand
Ambassador for ghd, North America.
INSPIRATION:“I wanted to create a modern day chignon. It’s
a look that works well on everyone, no matter if you
have straight or curly hair. It’s clean and chic, and
is the perfect classic style.”
TIPS/TECHNIQUE: “To create this look, I used the ghd eclipse™. I love this flat iron because it features ghd’s patented tri-zone™ technology with
three heat sensors that keep the temperature at 365 degrees - optimal for
styling. The ghd eclipse™ leaves
hair looking incredibly shiny, sleek and smooth. First,
blow dry hair using the ghd air™ hairdryer and a round brush. Part hair down the middle,
then divide into 3 sections: two in
the front and one in the back. Starting at the back of the head and
working forward, take 1 – 1 1/2 inch sections and straighten the
hair with the ghd eclipse™.
Pull hair into a tight bun on the back of your head. Use bobby
pins to secure.”

INSPIRATION: “I call this hairstyle
‘California Chic.’ I wanted the look to be soft and
smooth, but with a hint of naughtiness.”
TIPS/TECHNIQUE: "First blow dry hair using the ghd air™ hairdryer and a round brush. Then part the hair down
the middle and divide into 3 sections: two in the
front and one in the back. Starting at the back and
working forward, take different sized sections and
curl hair using the ghd curve™ creative curl
wand, the size of the barrel creates
the looser shape needed for this look. After each piece, release the curl
and stretch it out for 2-3 seconds. Continue all the way to the
top alternating the direction of the curl. ghd’s patented
tri-zone™ technology styles the hair in less time and creates long
lasting curls without having to use a bunch of
styling products. For the top sections, don’t curl the
hair all the way to the root, only the bottom half of the shaft
- this prevents the Shirley Temple tendrils. Finish the look by
pulling front sections of hair behind the ear.”

Celebrity Makeup Artist, Melanie Inglessis, created a sultry burgundy smoky eye to complement Rosamund Pike’s romantic Vera Wang gown at the 2015 Golden Globes.
“The
inspiration for any red carpet look begins with the dress. Rosamund’s
dress is classic with ethereal, Greek
goddess elements. The cream color of the dress allows me to play with
color. I wanted the makeup to be a little rock and roll and accentuate
her gorgeous eyes with a soft, smokey Grey and plum color.”
“I
began by prepping with a mist of Sisley Floral Spray Mist to instantly
refresh the skin. I then used a drop of the Black Rose Precious Face Oil
and the Hydra Global Intense Anti-Aging Hydration for perfectly
moisturized skin. I warmed the products with my
hands and massaged them into the face” said Inglessis.
“To
ensure bright eyes I applied a thick layer of the Sisley Eye Contour
Mask. I wiped it off a few minutes later
for a radiant appearance. I keep it in my fridge overnight which helps
to invigorate the skin and reduce puffiness. Under the eyes I used
Sisley’s Phyto-Cernes Eclat concealer. The metal applicator is cooling
and helps to further reduce puffiness.”
“To
create Rosamund's soft, smokey eyes I began with eyeliner in a taupe
grey and applied it along the top and bottom
lashes in a thick line. I blended Illusion D’Ombre in Mirifique over
the line and feathered it up to the crease and Ombre Essentielle in
Ebony into the outer corner of the crease to add depth the smokey eye. I
used Chanel Intense Mascara on the bottom lashes
for a sultry look.”
“For the lips, I then applied a thick layer of Sisley’s Nutritive Lip Balm. This is wiped off just before the lipstick
is applied to keep lips moisturized. I finished the lip with Chanel Rouge Coco Shine.”

- Create a deep side part to whichever side suits your face shape best
- Sweep into low ponytail at the nape
- Use a straightening iron to create a smooth sleek finish

"Sienna's hair is a fantastic version of a short bob – it's perfectly disheveled and textured haircut."
If you're looking for Sienna's style, start with your hair cut into
a mid-length bob to allow movement (if it's cut too short it won't have
enough versatility). If you choose to create waves as did Sienna
Miller did:
- Start by blow drying with volume throughout, using a medium sized curling iron to create a bend from the mid-length to the ends of the hair
- Finish by using Redken fashion waves 07 sea salt spray to create the perfectly disheveled edge. Mist all over whilst running your hands throughout.
