Ginnifer Goodwin and Rihanna prove that unconventional beauty looks can be successful (read: eye-catching without looking theatrical) when properly executed.

Notice how Ginnifer's razor cut, contoured cheek and beige-nude lip add a modern edge to her '60s-inspired eye, whilst Rihanna's Rapunzel-esque braid works with her beaded lace dress for a '30s, Spanish-inspired effect?

Each look hold an element of surprise, yet ties together beautifully.
