Best Dressed: Golden Globes 2011

   
      Happy awards season! It's the time of year where ceremonies are never ending and dresses are talked about for at least three days. This year the red carpet came alive with color. Emerald green (my favorite of the evening), feminine pinks, festive metallics and sultry reds. Red-carpet veterans, Armani, Versace, Calvin Klein and Lanvin, delivered gorgeous gowns for all the deserving ladies. Though many graced the red carpet in stunning gowns, i picked my 3 favorites for the night.   
     Anne Hathaway jumps on the backless bandwagon to make my best dressed list. This stunning copper-meets-blush, sequin-studded Armani Privé gown is modern and demure with long sleeves and a high neck. It's when she turns around that you get that movie star moment. What seemed dated from the front now looks fresh and modern. Soft makeup, flattering chestnut waves, complementary peep-toe Brian Atwood platforms finish off her crystallized sheath along with Van Cleef & Arpels vintage jewels, and Roger Vivier clutch. 
      Newly blonde Emma Stone plays up her lighter locks and worked the heck out of this peachy minimalist dress from the Calvin Klein Collection. The short sleeves and high neckline are perfect on her. Who needs an overload of accessories and embellishment when you've got this kind of natural glow? She paired the dress with a sleek clutch, Van Cleef & Arpels jewels as well as Anne and Ferragamo peep-toes.
      We get it, Angelina Jolie -- you have it all. She's beautiful, talented and fashionable! Angelina looks right at home in a glam sparkly Atelier Versace gown. It was an unusual move for Angelina, who tends to play it safe in neutral shades but the choice certainly paid off. The floor-length, long-sleeved number gets some added wow with draped backless detail. And Brad Pitt doesn't hurt the look either. Nice job ladies, 10/10!
