Choosing the Dress: Golden Globes 2012

If I was a celebrity stylist, awards season would absolutely be my favorite time of year.  Couture gowns all over the place, subsisting only on Starbucks and cigarettes, running around town with dapper gay assistants with catchphrases more clever than mine, the list just goes on and on. But still, the drop-dead gorgeous gowns would be the main reason I rolled out of bed in the afternoon. Here, my picks for the Golden Globe nominees (Tilda Swinton, I think you're an amazing actress, but I can't even begin to think about what type of avant garde action you'll be rocking come this Sunday).
