Celebs.com Presents the Week’s Five Best-Dressed Celebs (Miranda Kerr, Heidi Klum, Charlize Theron…)

3, 2011 3:29pm

By Elizabeth Mitchell

We’re always excited to see what new color and style trends will show up on the red carpet each week, and this time around it was no doubt all about the red, white and sexy. From Sarah Jessica Parker’s feathered white Louis Vuitton frock to Heidi Klum’s daring red-hot plunging neckline suit, here’s a look at Celebs.com’s top 5 best-dressed celebs of the week. Tell us, who was your favorite?

5. Sarah Jessica Parker

Known for her undeniable sense of fashion, Sex and the City star Sarah Jessica Parker definitely didn’t disappoint in her glamorous Louis Vuitton frock at the UNICEF Snowflake Ball earlier this week. She wore her hair in a half up/half down style and paired her chic dress with white pumps by the same designer.

4. Miranda Kerr

It’s easy to look this hot when you’re a supermodel, right? Well, if your name’s Miranda Kerr it is! Joining her fellow angels, the new mom took a walk on the wild side at a special viewing party for the Victoria’s Secret 2011 Fashion Show wearing a sexy leopard print dress by Dolce & Gabbana styled with Gianvito Rossi heels.

3. Taylor Swift

Does this country crooner ever make a fashion mishap? At the CMT Artists of the Year event on Tuesday night, singer Taylor Swift turned up the heat in a strapless red dress paired with gold peep-toe pumps and a matching red pout. She pulled her blonde curls back into a glam updo to complete her look.

2. Heidi Klum

At the Toronto launch of her new signature fragrance, Shine, Project Runway host Heidi Klum takes the plunge in all over head-to-toe red suit by Michael Kors. She sports matching red lips (similar to our girl Taylor Swift) and pulls her hair back into a sexy sleek bun. Blue nails and a few bangles finish off her red-hot business lady look.

1. Charlize Theron

Donning a super sexy black and white Gucci dress with a plunging neckline, Young Adult star Charlize Theron goes all out glam for the Gotham Independent Film Awards. She completes her look with a black clutch, bright pink lips and a Jennifer Behr headwrap.

Celebs.com Presents the Week’s Five Best-Dressed Celebs

14, 2011 5:20pm

By Elizabeth Mitchell

This week at Celebs.com we caught up with the Kardashians (okay, just one of the sisters), spotted a bunch of glam gals in NYC and even got “wonderstruck” by a certain country cutie. To see which stylish stars came out on top, check out our full best-dressed list after the jump!

5. Country cutie Taylor Swift always looks glam, but the singer really outdid herself for the launch of her new fragrance at Macy’s in New York on Thursday. Rocking a striped Tracy Reese frock, peep-toe pumps and crimson red lips, we bet Taylor left fans just as “wonderstruck” as we are.

4. Julianne Hough is back on our best dressed list for the second week in a row! The sultry Footloose star arrived at the Cinema Society’s screening for her new film sporting a sexy black tuxedo dress by Rachel Zoe and classic black pumps by Casadei. Sleek, straight hair and a classy, cute clutch topped off her premiere ready look.

3. Absolutely angelic in an elegant white Christian Dior Gown with black velvet accent, actress Michelle Williams wowed on the red carpet at the New York Film Festival premiere of her latest movie My Week with Marilyn. Check out our video of Michelle Williams on the red carpet talking about her role as Marilyn Monroe.

2. A glowing and gorgeous Kristen Bell attended the Nature Conservancy “Style and Beauty for the Planet” event launch in NYC on Monday wearing a nude strapless Tibi dress, styled with bronze Casadei platform pumps and a chic metallic gold box clutch by Salvatore Ferragamo.

1. Newlywed Kim Kardashian traded in her usual leopard spots for something a bit on the brighter side this week. We’re loving how she paired her eye-popping, lemon tie-neck top with a pretty teal pencil skirt for an allover electric effect at the airport in Dubai. Wow, who knew bold color was Kim K.’s thing?
