Golden Globes 2011- 10 Best Dressed Women

So as we all know, the golden globes took place earlier this week- and the fashions were amazing. The Golden Globes never seem to disappoint, as many pull out all the stops with beautiful gowns, gorgeous coifs and elegant make-up. There were many trends among the stars this year:

For men: A classic bow-tie was overwhelmingly popular, along with the classic black tux.

For Women:
Surprising Colour: Emerald green was a surprisingly popular colour this year sported by Angelina Jolie, Mila Kunis, Elizabeth Moss, and Catherine Zeta Jones. I'm personally not a huge green fan, but honestly these women pulled it off beautifully.

The Colour to Wear: The dusty roses and baby pinks were by far the winners for most popular gown colour this year at the Globes. Stars such as Scarlett Johansson, Natalie Portman, Sandra Bullock, Lea Michelle, Diana Argon, Megan Fox, and Maria Menounos were just to name a few who wore the popular colour. The dusty rose is great because it can accent almost any skin-tone beautifully- I approve.

The Hair: The hair this year was very old hollywood chic with loosely pulled back coifs, french twists, and pin-curl type locks. (If you love this look but need help achieving, look for my next post on how-to's for old hollywood hair with a twist!).

The Make-up: It's safe to say that the make-up this year was not bold at all- except for the lips. Bold, red lips were very apparent on the carpet this year. Skin tones were very fair, with faintly rosy cheeks and elongated eyes. Simple-looking make-up was key on the carpet.

Here are the top 10 best dressed women from the carpet!

Olivia Wilde in Marchesa 
This brown sequinned strapless princess dress is by far the winner in my eyes.

January Jones in Versace
This red fringed cut-out dress with a plunging neckline is incredibly sexy on January. I loved when she walked her legs would show through the fringe skirt (unfortunately this isn't seen in photograph).

Anne Hathaway in Armani Privé 
This backless, form fitting Armani looked gorgeous on Anne. The squared sequins that make up the dress made her sparkle, and the puffed shoulders added an extra edge. 

Lea Michelle in Oscar de la Renta
Okay so the colour is kind of pepto bismol-esque... but the construction of the dress is just to die for! Plus, Lea definitely pulls off the colour completely!

Mila Kunis in Vera Wang
This one-shouldered, emerald green Vera Wang has SO much texture happening. It looks as though it is wrapped around Mila's body in several different ways to fit her with perfection. And did I mention the gorgeously draped train? Love.

Kailey Cuoco in Catherine Kid

This beautiful strapless nude dress is so pretty with its tiered skirt with asymmetrical lines and slight train. "The Big Bang Theory" star looks like a modern day princess!

Amy Adams in Marchesa

This navy, fitted to the knee, strapless gown is so beautiful with Amy's red locks. The ruffled lace bodice adds character, and the silky looking skirt and train portray such elegance.

 Sofia Vergara in Vera Wang
This form fitting, scoop necked strapless number accents all of Sofia's best ASS-ets. The corset in the back (unseen in photo) puts everything in the right place, and again the very popular train is shown as well.

Julie Bowen in Tadashi Shoji
This dress is very reminiscent of the recent Marchesa collection pieces with the beautiful feather-like ruffles at the shoulder and trailing down to the train. 

Scarlett Johansson in Elie Saab
This dusty-rose butterfly sleeved dress so elegant on Scarlett. The sheer looking, flowy dress with exposed back is so gorgeous with great beadwork and floral accents.
