When it comes to pulling out all the stops for an event, no one does it better than Jessica Alba. Frocking up for the Golden Globes, Jess knocked it outta the park in a peachy Oscar de la Renta gown, paired with the most amazing Harry Winston diamond necklace. It was Hollywood glam at its very best. Upping the sex appeal a few notches, Miranda Kerr hit the after-parties with a divine, berry-hued, split-to-the-thigh Zuhair Murad gown, while Emily Blunt took an edgier road in a slightly-muted gold Michael Kors number. But it wasn't all glam red carpet outfits — supermodel Candice Swanepoel rocked out in an Iron Maiden tee and Lucy Hale showcased perfect jetsetter style.

The Fashion Crowd Gathers to Toast Derek Blasberg in Style
It may be prime time for celebrity getaways to beachy locales, but the celebration for Derek Blasberg's latest venture (a chic little line of stationery for Opening Ceremony) drew out something of a style crowd in NYC last night. Blasberg's buddies were in a range of winter-appropriate ensembles to show their support — nothing too glam or over the top; just a mix of easy but polished looks from the likes of Rachel Roy, Nicky Hilton, and Hilary Rhoda. Hilary showed off her mile-long stems in a pair of black trousers, which she topped with a tweedy jacket, Nicky gave a staple knit a cool-girl twist, and Leigh Lezark proved just how eye-catching a leopard-print coat really is.

Twihards everywhere finally got the long-anticipated finale to the Twilight Saga when it hit cinemas on Thursday, but we've been more preoccupied with what the film's cast are wearing on the red carpet. Yesterday, starlets Ashley Greene, Nikki Reed, and Elizabeth Reaser bared a decidedly sexier side, with their respective gowns and party dresses. Ashley showed off a moody Donna Karan Atelier gown with a figure-flaunting bustier, while Nikki turned up the glamour in a fringed and beaded Naeem Khan confection. But it wasn't just about the film's leading vampires ladies — celebs like Nicky Hilton, Rachel Roy, and Lindsay Ellingson glammed up to celebrate the final Twilight chapter.
