Fresh from a dazzling appearance at the Palm Springs Film Festival – where Brad Pitt was awarded the Desert Palm Achievement Award - the pair struck a smouldering pose outside the event.

And while Brad looked undeniably dapper in a sleek charcoal Versace suit - accessorised with a cooky cane, after he tore a ligament during a ski trip – it was Angelina Jolie who set tongues wagging.

Scoring yet another style hit to add to her collection, Angelina Jolie was the epitome of chic as she sashayed down the red carpet, choosing a sizzling Ferragamo leather skirt, simple silk blouse and jaw-dropping jade jewels for the occasion.

Despite winning hands down in the fashion stakes, it was Brad Pitt who took home an award during the evening, garnering the prestigious Best Actor prize for his roles in Moneyball and The Tree of Life.

Meryl Streep was also present at the ceremony, taking home the Best Actress gone, while rising starlet Jessica Chastain was awarded the Best Supporting Actress prize for her role in The Help. 

And with the Golden Globes just around the corner, we can't help feeling this is just a sign of things to come...
