I LOVED Nicole Kidman’s look last night at the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards. Her dress was beautiful and colorful. I believe I had just mentioned at the past Golden Globe awards that I wished she would wear a gown with some color. I’m glad she listened to my advice (HA!)Â

In my humble opinion, I thought Nicole looked flawlessly beautiful.
she looks gorgeous.
thanks for the makeup breakdown
She really is a beautiful woman…and more so the older she gets.The dress was stunning and original, too (color is perfect for her!) Now if she’d just lay off the botox. (although, I don’t think she gets injected as much now that she’s with Keith Urban!!)
I really feel this new hair color is making her look much more youthful. I think the lighter tones have been washing her out. I’m half tempted to try that color myself but I don’t have her complexion.
I agree- it’s the perfect color on her!
