What a stylish week!

Between parties, events, meet and greets and premieres, this was one busy week for stars in Hollywood!  The weather was great, so the fashions were especially summery and fun, and make-up and hair light and natural!  - Let's just get on with it!

At an event for the TV show Brothers and Sisters, Emily VanCamp kept it kewl in a pants and top outfit that perfectly straddled the dressy/casual divide.

There were plenty of dressier events going on this week too, and not so classic black seemed to be the fashion byword of the week. At the Tribeca Film Festival, Gossip Girl Blake Lively kept it interesting in this frock and period inspired shoes.

Rock daughter Zoe Kravitz looks fabulous in the not so simple black frock of hers - just look at all the fun details and fabric changes!  And all in one tiny dress on one tiny lady!  Amazing.

The Duff sisters show that they are definitely up to the New York fashion challenge!  Both in black 'cocktail' dresses, the girls show off their long locks and long stems!  Black always lets the natural beauty shine through!

And Hilary even gets into the slightly sexy trend of corset dressing!  Look at the 'stays' that give the dress its sexy shape!  To counter that, the ever careful Canadian has chosen a longer hemline - nice counter-move! 

Never one to pass up on an opportunity to wear a really stunning dress, one of our faves, Emmy Rossum, gives her take on a simple white dress.  Simply beautiful!

Also making a name for herself on MY best dressed list is newcomer Natassia Malthes, who looks like vintage Hollywood magic in this gorgeously beaded number - can you imagine how great this dress must feel to wear?  Stunning!  She's also wearing a bit more make-up than anyone else this week, but with a dress like this - you can afford to go a tad more dramatic!

There was also a premiere for a little thing called Speed Racer over the weekend that attracted all sorts of beautiful ladies and some great spring dresses.  Like spunky Aimee Teegarden from Friday Night Lights in this fun red dress.  Not too sexy, but plenty sassy!  Nice choice, Aimee!

Another winning entry in the red dress competition for the day was worn by Moonlight star Sophie Myles.  I love her from the period film Mansfield Park, but she's still looking just as young and lovely as ever!

Once again, our fave Emmy Rossum shows em how to wear an awesome purple dress (she's done this a few times!).  I hope someone is paying her to wear their clothes - she's such a great walking billboard!  Awesome, Rossum!

My personal favorite dress of the week has to be this one worn by Ginnifer Goodwin!  Cute, comfortable, swingy, attractive and what a great, colorful pattern!!!  I could just eat it up!  It's just fantastic!

And it wouldn't be right not to finish off with the effervescent girl of the evening, the film's own Christina Ricci!  She looks fantastic and super fresh in this dress that's just the right mix of springtime and black and white.  It suits her, and her personal style, perfectly!  Kudos, Christina!

And wrapping up what was one of the best weeks in fashion in a long time, this maid of honor glowed at her own premiere of the new romantic comedy Made of Honor. Michelle Monaghan is wearing the queen of all bridesmaid dresses!  This gradated black silk organza masterpiece looks gorgeous, and must make a beautiful swishing sound with every step!  We're a little jealous...but we'll manage!  Stay stylish!

Idol Gives Back!

There were some pretty fantastic fashion choices made by the gals involved in this year's Idol Gives Back!  Have a look!

Geri Halliwell, or Ginger Spice as she's better known, was there to represent for her spicy cohorts in this daring purple dress.

 Fergie Fergs has truly been working out!  Congratulations to her!  You have to work out super hard to look this good in all that tight black rocker chick regalia!  Not for me, but good on her!

Is it just me, or does she look A LOT like a Bratz doll here?!?

Miley was looking pretty good, and pretty casual in her jeans, boots and kewl top.  Where does she get them?  To us, the teen queen looks like she could use a little sleep, but at least she's still getting out there for the right causes! 

And the fashion winner of the night?  Carrie Underwood!!!  She wore a gorgeous gown of two-tone silk that changed from pale green to pale pink in the light!  Fabrics like this can be tricky once a girl gets in front of the cameras and lights, but this one is a winner all around!  Maybe the designer actually planned it for just such an occasion!  At any rate, chalk another win up for little Carrie!  You go girl!

 And whatever the girls wore, they wore their hearts on their sleeves for a great cause!  Make sure to watch tonight!
