Bringing a sense of spring to the red carpet, Lucy Liu combatted Los Angeles’ unusually chilly temperatures at the 2013 Golden Globes Awards on Sunday.

The beautiful actress floated down the carpet in a floral print Carolina Herrera Pre-Fall 2013 ball gown.

Lucy’s gown not only infuses a sense of natural elegance into the often quite formal carpet at the Globes, but also serves to highlight the petite actress’ tiny waist.

To accent her sweet frock, Lucy donned subtle earrings, and a single stunning green cocktail ring.

I love that Lucy opted for a more relaxed hairstyle, sporting a feminine fishtail braid over one shoulder rather than a fussy updo.

Lucy’s locks are perfectly suited for a trendy side braid, so the overall effect when paired with her princess-worthy gown is simply breathtaking.
