From glittery gowns to dazzling smoky eyes, Hollywood flooded the red carpet with all kinds of glamorous looks in 2014. Celebs stopped at nothing to up their beauty game this past year. Here’s the best of the best when it came to eye-catching red carpet looks these starlets had to offer:
1Rihanna
Self-proclaimed bad girl Rihanna attended the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s 2014 Costume Institute Gala in a daring yet delicate Stella McCartney, belly-baring outfit. Her messy updo was a striking contrast to her sleek attire.
2Jennifer Lawrence
Sizzling in red, J. Law easily outshined many well-known celebrities with her strapless gown, red lips and a gorgeous jeweled necklace that dipped low in the back.
3Taylor Swift
Glistening in a floor length, silver mesh dress by Gucci, Taylor Swift walked the red carpet with a loose side-swept ponytail and delicate smoky eye.
4Kate Hudson
Kate Hudson stunned at the Academy Awards this year in a classic glittery gown with a deep v-neck. Her old-time Hollywood waves were swept back on one side in a deep side part for an ultra glam look.
5Reese Witherspoon
In a hot pink getup, bright pink lips and retro waves, Reese Witherspoon was one of the best dressed at the 2014 Met Gala in New York City.
6Kendall Jenner
Staying true to her Kardashian roots, Kendall Jenner arrived at the 2014 Billboard Music Awards with lengthy lashes, a nude lip and super smooth hair.

Lupita for the win! Not only did her outfit with the night, but her movie, “12 Years a Slave,” won a Golden Globe as well … talk about having a great night!
8Jennifer Lopez
Always one to watch on the red carpet, J. Lo proved once again that she’s ageless in a scandalous dress showing off her killer abs and toned arms. A dark, smoky eye, nude lips and brushed back, voluminous hair merely added to the star’s seductive look.
9Iggy Azalea
Similar to her “Booty”-singing duet partner Jennifer Lopez, Iggy seemed to be feeling fancy in slicked back hair, natural makeup and a glittery Versace gown.
10Kate Beckinsale
Kate Beckinsale arrived at the 2014 American Music Awards in a cut out white dress, bold statement necklace and slick pony showcasing her low-key makeup and natural beauty.
