Gowns at Golden Globe Awards

Hollywood's top strode down the Golden Globe Awards' red carpet in vibrant gowns as stars sought to boost and brighten a gloomy rainy day. Here's our list of the Golden Globe hits and misses...

Black is beautiful: Mariah Carey bought her own style to Golden Globes, making cleavage her most notable accessory of the evening in this plunging black Herve Leger by Max Azria dress, the singer looked hot on the red carpet. (AFP/Timothy A. Clary)
Christina Aguilera: Presenter Christina Aguilera is always a breath of fresh air, but her peach strapless dress is a little too easy-breezy for such a glam evening and to add to her glam quotient is the cut above the knee in her gown. (REUTERS/Lucy Nicholson)
Black & bronze: Penelope Cruz is stunning as always, showing off a sexy holiday tan and a show-stopping black Giorgio Armani Prive gown. The fitted banded dress gets serious pizazz points from the mermaid hemline, and the beaded mesh off-the-shoulder detail is all the added sparkle she needs. (Getty OImages/Steve Granitz)
Magic in black: Actress Kate Winslet ruled the red carpet in a stunning black one shoulder at the 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards. (AFP/Valerie Macon)
Going the wild way: Jennifer Aniston is always so prim and proper, so her black one shoulder gown with a high slit has us a little confused. And not to miss her hair, is this some kind of a style or we can say a bad hair day for the actress. (AFP/Valerie Macon)
