The varying shades of blue in Diane Kruger and Joshua Jackson's outfits are complementary without being too matchy. Josh's blue wingtips are a much better "creative" footwear idea than the sneakers-with-formal-dress look he's often sporting.

This light purple is a great color for Laura Linney. She often blends right into the background at red carpet events, so it's nice to see her going for something with a bit more flair. The sleek ponytail also suits her.

Chyler Leigh's unusual and statement-making dress is really knocking us out.

Alexis Bledel looks relaxed and summery here. The print has a sweet vintage feel, and the low-heeled silver sandals go well with the dress. We would swap out the leather belt (too heavy with sheer chiffon) and the black clutch.

Yes, it's a little bit '90s Carrie Bradshaw, but somehow this sheer Gucci gown still works on Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. Maybe it's the whole former model thing.

Even a supermodel like Gisele Bundchen can have an off day. The pink "belt" looks like one of those bowties that come in a package with a cheap tuxedo shirt. Plus: The top is droopy, and her hair and makeup look more appropriate for the gym than a red carpet event.
