Red hot at the Golden Globes

Awards season makes for a nice distraction this time of year. My favorites of last night's fashion focused on beautiful blushes and sultry reds.

 Here are my picks for the best:

Winner Jennifer Lawrence sported a fun coral-red Dior gown.



My favorite actress Marion Cotillard, also in Dior, went for a siren orange/red asymmetrical hem.

Naomi Watts kept warm in this simple, classic burgundy dress.




Winner Claire Danes rocked this red hot wrap just months after giving birth.




And Zoe Deschanel sizzled in this taffeta gown that I heard some critics called "wrinkly." I thought it was fabulous.

SavorTheSeason: Blood Oranges

One of the best parts of living in the Upper Midwest is the opportunity to experience all four seasons, some being longer than others. January and February tend to be long, dark, cold months up here, when looking for the positives is one of the only ways to get through, so I present a new feature "Savor the Season."

This week I bring you blood oranges, my favorite season fruit of late December and early January.
