The awards season continued last night with the Screen Actors Guild gala and so did the red carpet tango. Hollywood stars descended on the Los Angeles Shrine Exposition Center to strut their stuff. When it came to trends, white ruled the carpet, red and black followed strong and floral patterns showed a spring state of mind. Scroll down for a complete breakdown of who rocked it and those that missed the mark.
White was the color of the night…
 Amy Adams looks gorgeous in a white gown by the original King of bandage dresses, Herve L. Leroux.
 Newly divorced Eva Longoria also looked stunning in a Grecian, white Georges Hobeika gown.
 SAG Best Actress Winner and Oscar front runner Natalie Portman was also in white, going with a bejeweled Azzaro gown. Unfortunately, this gown just didn't work for the pregnant star. The fit looked uncomfortable. A flowing bodice would have served her better.
 Another miss in white was Wynona Ryder who wore Alberta Ferretti. Her too-tight bodice and layered skirt with exposed tulle channeled a bad wedding gown.
The blush tones continue…
 Rizzoli and Isles star Angie Harmon went ultra feminine in a light pink, feathered Monique Lhuillier.
 Hilary Swank looked like a goddess in a one shouldered Versace.
 Glee's Heather Morris also took a bite out of this trend in her feather and jewel adorned dress.
 Heather's fellow Glee cast mate Jayma Mays went peachy in a draped Jenny Packham dress.
On the other end of the color spectrum, black was another stand out color on the carpet…
 Nicole Kidman wore a black Nina Ricci gown with cap sleeves and lace inserts.
 The Closer's Kyra Sedgwick wore a velvet vintage Thierry Mugler.
 Glee's Amber Riley worked her figure in an Anne Barge gown.
 Another Glee star, Diana Agron donned a black and blue Chanel gown. The awkward length of this chic gown unfortunately overwhelmed her petite frame. On the other hand, her hair and makeup were flawless.
 Modern Family's Julie broke away from the sea of dresses in a low cut Malandrino jumpsuit
 Mad Men's Christina Hendricks also tried something different in a L'Wren Scott wrap dress. Black is 99% of the time a slimming color but this dress gives off a very heavy and dense feel, probably because of the texture. This combined with her dark make up overwhelms her fair features.
Red was another major hue of the night…
 Tina Fey wore a lace Oscar de la Renta.
 Nurse Jackie's Edie Falco in Bottega Veneta
 Julianna Margulies wore an Yves Saint Laurent creation which featured another big trend of the night, a sweetheart neckline.
 Hands down, best dressed of the night was Best Supporting Actress Nominee, Mila Kunis in an absolutely gorgeous and ethereal floral Alexander McQueen
Speaking of floral but not quite in the red category…
 Best Actress Winner for the TV Movie Temple Grandin, Claire Danes wears a belted blue and black Louis Vuitton floral creation
Several stars went the metallic route…
 Lea Michele wore a slinky and low cut metallic Oscar de la Renta. We may be able to say the Glee star's devotion to Oscar de la Renta may soon rival Renee Zellweger's love for all things Carolina Herrera.
 30 Rock's Jane Krakowski played up her pregnancy bump in a chic and short one shouldered Badgely Mischka sheath and nude peep toe pumps.
 Mad Men's January Jones changes things up and goes for gold in a conservative but elegant lace Carolina Herrera. This dress may have looked even better with no sleeves or a different neckline. Nevertheless, kudos to Ms. Jones for never being afraid to try something new.
Stand out hues of the night…
 Winter's Bone's Jennifer Lawrence stood out in a gorgeous hot pink Oscar de la Renta number.
 True Grit break out star Hailee Steinfeld was playful and colorful in Prada.
 Modern Family's Sofia Vergara knows what works for her and sticks to it, donning a cobalt blue Cavalli gown with a plunging neckline. It's not the first time she's rocked this color and she looks fabulous in it.
 Dexter's Julia Stiles took a risk that paid off in an elegant navy blue and white ombre gown.

Nudes, pastels, sequins and emerald green ruled the red carpet at Sunday’s 2011 Golden Globe Awards. While some Stars shone, other heavy hitters like Halle Berry, Julianne Moore and Nicole Kidman didn’t fare so well. Here’s the low down on the good, the bad and unfortunately, the not so impressive…
Nudes…
Matching your skin tone has been one of the biggest trends of the season and the carpet was swarming with gowns featuring this trend. Everyone from Scarlett Johannson to Sandra Bullock, Glee’s Diana Argon and Michelle Williams took a bite out of the “nude” apple.
 Scarlett Johansson channeled old hollywood glamour in a flutter sleeved Elie Saab with floral appliqué.
 Sandra Bullock showed off an edgier look with her blunt bangs but softened things up in an embellished Jenny Packham dress.
 Glee's Diana Argon also went soft in J. Mendel
Not so impressive in this hue…
 Gossip Girl's Leighton Meester looked aged in Burberry
 Nominated for her movie Blue Valentine, Michelle Williams tried to match her 60s hair cut in this Valentino gown with floral embellishments. Unfortunately, it was just a bit underwhelming for this event.
Sequins…
A-list Stars took a cue from the disco era trend taking over the runways and glittered on the carpet.
 Anne Hathaway stunned in Armani Privé and loose waves.
 The back of her dress was just as stunning.
 Carrie Underwood also added some sparkle to her elegant Badgely Mischka.
 Olivia Wilde went the princess route and sparkled in her black and gold Marchesa ball gown.
Unfortunately, even sequins couldn’t save these Stars…
 Nicole Kidman failed to impress in this one shouldered, belted Prada gown, accessorized with a brooch.
 While Desperate Housewives' Vanessa Williams (also in a one shouldered gown) made no impact at all.
Green with envy…
Emerald green was the color of goddesses on the carpet.
 Catherine Zeta Jones showed us why she's Hollywood royalty in an emerald Monique Lhuillier.
 Angelina Jolie also pops in this gorgeous color wearing Atelier Versace.
 Mila Kunis joined A-list company in this custom Vera Wang.
 Elizabeth Moss also dipped her toe in the night's hottest hue but this ill-fitting Donna Karan frock did the talented actress zero justice.
Bringing more color to the stylish carpet were some super stylish ladies…
 January Jones recovered from last year's Versace Emmy bomb with another Versace (fringed), retro curls and matching lips.
 Red head du jour Christina Hendricks matched her hair and showed off her killer curves in a one shoulder, body hugging Romona Kaveza.
 A pleasant surprise on the carpet was The Closer's Kyra Sedgwick who stood out in a bold, marigold Emilio Pucci.
On a lighter note…
Nominees Claire Danes and Emma Stone both went the minimalist route in pastel colored Calvin Klein numbers. Megan Fox, Lea Michele and Best Actress Nominee, Natalie Portman also went the light pink route.
 Claire Danes who won the Best Actress statue for her HBO movie "Temple Grandin" looked elegant in her custom Calvin Klein gown.
 Emma Stone looked peachy in a simple and elegant Calvin Klein with a daring back.
 Emma Stone rocked the minimalist look in Calvin Klein.
 Megan Fox continued her loyalty to Armani in a blush Armani Privé gown.
 While Glee's Lea Michele donned another Oscar de la Renta - It would be nice to see her switch it up a little bit from her usual taffeta choices.
Two ladies who failed to impress in Pink, Best Supporting Actress nominee Julianne Moore and Best Actress Nominee, Natalie Portman.
 Julianne Moore's crumpled and wrinkled hot pink Lanvin was a complete mess.
 While Natalie Portman's Victor + Rolf gown did nothing for the expectant mom. There's no excuse for that flower plus there are so many amazing designers that have beautifully outfitted pregnant Stars...Sarah Jessica Parker in Narciso Rodriguez anyone?
 Pregnancy flashback: Sarah Jessica Parker looked beautiful and stylish at 7 months in 2002 wearing a gorgeous pink, Narciso Rodriguez babydoll dress.
It wouldn’t be the Globes without the prerequisite black…
 Eva Longoria was stunning in a body hugging Zac Posen with a cut-out back.
 Piper Parabo could have done better than this boring black dress with a shoulder bow, which just seemed oddly sized and placed. As Charlize Theron showed us in her John Galliano for Dior number in 2006, either go big or go home.
 Blast from the past: Charlize Theron in the controversial Big Bow Dior dress at the 2006 Oscars.
Another hot mess…
 Halle Berry who's usually flawless, bombed in this black corseted Nina Ricci gown. It was a bad mixture of a cliché undergarment / nightgown with a weirdly cut sheer train.
On to the Oscars….
