Below, discover the shiniest metallic heels from the Golden Globes red carpet.

Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift shimmered in metallic green Christian Louboutin pumps while arriving to the Golden Globes. The musician’s pointed-toe Kate style featured shiny, smooth juniper-toned leather uppers with stiletto heels, which smoothly complemented her sequined green Gucci dress — a custom design by designer Sabato de Sarno.

Selena Gomez

Selena Gomez slipped on a pair of Christian Louboutin’s gleaming red patent leather Hot Chick Sling pumps on the red carpet. The “Only Murders in the Building” star’s pointed-toe set added a slick complement to her custom red Armani Privé dress, which stylist Kate Walsh glamorously paired with diamond Bulgari jewelry.

Cailee Spaeny

“Priscilla” star Cailee Spaeny shone in a pair of metallic gold sandals with crystal-lined straps while attending her Golden Globes. Spaeny’s high-shine heels were elegantly paired with a custom white Miu Miu dress with a sheer-paneled corset, allover pink rose print and gleaming sequins. A diamond collar necklace and earrings smoothly completed her look with a dash of ’60s-inspired sparkle.

Gayle King

Gayle King slipped on a pair of shiny mirrored silver pumps at the Golden Globes, seen while mingling with stars Rachel Smith and Jennifer Lopez. King’s metallic heels were elevated with a one-sleeved purple silk Solace London dress, worn in support of “The Color Purple” — which was produced by her close friend Oprah Winfrey.

Emily Blunt

Emily Blunt gleamed in metallic gold Jimmy Choo platform sandals at the Golden Globes, complete with knotted straps for a shiny flair. The “Oppenheimer” actress’ set matched her gold and white Alexander McQueen dress, which stylist Jessica Paster elevated with diamond Tiffany & Co. jewelry and Victoria’s Secret lingerie.
