Live-blogging the Golden Globe fashions

Updated 8:10 p.m. PT: Get over here and cast your vote for the best look of the night. Was it Angelina Jolie? Charlize Theron? Make your pick, or tell us who you liked better.

Updated 5:45 p.m. PT: "Glee" stars Lea Michele and Dianna Agron caught our eye with some fanciful bodice work on their dresses. Michele's look reminds us a bit of something straight out "Terminator" ... doesn't that look like molten metal? Or something? Advantage, Agron.

Updated 5:20 p.m. PT: Rounding out the red carpet portion of the show, we'll wrap this up with actresses Mila Kunis, Emma Stone and Michelle Williams. Got a favorite here? Our vote is on Stone, in the center.

Updated 5:10 p.m. PT: We're big Kate Beckinsale fans around here. The actress topped E!'s year-end list of the top 10 bikini photos of 2011. That's all well and good. Here she is dressed!

Updated 4:55 p.m. PT: One of last year's red-carpet standouts was actress Natalie Portman, who walked the Academy Awards red carpet while pregnant and then went inside and took home the best actress Oscar for "Black Swan." Here she is tonight in pink!

Updated 4:50 p.m. PT: We're not loving the fact that we can't tell where the red carpet ends and Reese Witherspoon's dress starts in this photo.

Updated 4:45 p.m. PT: We're feeling a little blue. Or some shade of it, as actresses Freida Pinto, Sofia Vergara and Tilda Swinton work the red carpet.

Updated 4:25 p.m. PT: Actresses Octavia Spencer and Viola Davis from "The Help." Davis told Access Hollywood last week she hopes to escape the "wrath" of host Ricky Gervais. "He is absolutely hysterical. He can blast other people and I will laugh with abandon!"

Updated 4:15 p.m. PT: We showed our love for "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" star Rooney Mara recently because we'd been impressed with her style throughout the worldwide promotion for the film. Here she is tonight, continuing the theme:

Updated 4 p.m. PT: Uggie, the dog from "The Artist" who has been charming fans on red carpets around the world, made his appearance. Guess they opted not to put him in a little tux, but he did have on his little bow tie. George Clooney did wear a tux. "The Descendants" star looked his usual movie-star self as he posed with girlfriend Stacy Kiebler.

We're also following a few of our friends out there in Twitter world, notably TODAY style editor Bobbie Thomas, for some expert insight on dresses and more.

I really loved Zooey Deschanel's Green dress and clutch. Her hair looked cute too!

          If I only get one vote, Angelina for sure, thumbs down. No one can touch her when she doesn't want to be upstaged.

            Sarah Michelle Gellar's dress is absolutely horrid! Lea Michele and Dianna Agron should have switched dresses. I think they would have looked better in the other one's dress.

              Reply#6 - Mon Jan 16, 2012 12:57 AM EST

              Angelina walked away with it!! Stunning, Elegant, Serene... you name it...she possessed the night!

                Lea Michele looked better than Agron. Sarah Michelle was a disaster. I always enjoy Swinton and she didn't disappoint. The author is off base choosing Wood over Theron and Jolie. Jolie, then Theron, then Wood. Ritchie is poopsie and Danes has style. I kinda thought Ritchie's dress went a tad too low down the back but I'd call those two a tie. Deschanel? I'm stumped on what to say. I know by my own tastes I ought to dislike the look but somehow I like it. But I don't also. I'm confused there. As for the 2 ladies from "The Help". They look great though Spencer could have used a necklace, earrings, or bracelet to offset a bit.

                  What was Michelle Gellar thinking? It looks like her pen leaked on a rumpled bedsheet!

                  Emma Stone and Natalie Portman were my faves because their overall looks were perfection. Handbags, makeup, etc. Kate Beckinsale missed this because of overdoing it with the jewelry.

                  Also, please, somebody, anybody, get Charlize to eat a sandwich. Or something.

                  Finally, why was Nicole Richie even there…?

                    Emma Stone and Viola Davis - both striking in red!

                      not one dress here really impressed me but my fave vote goes to Kate Beckinsale.

                      and what was SMG thinking with that blue 'smoke' thing?????

                      Good thing SMG never wore that dress in the TV series Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Zooey Sofia Mila & Angelina definately had the best dresses of the night and Zooey just looks adorable like the girl next door.

                        SMG let her daughter pick her dress, she said so on the red carpet. Which just goes to show you that you should never leave fashon decisions to a 3 year old!
