Reese Witherspoon in Dolce & Gabbana
I (a) love this dress and (b) love it on her.
J Lo in Valentino
HOLA LOVERS! (Heather's on a plane right now, but I'm sure if she were writing this, that would be the opener.)
Lizzy Caplan in Elie Saab
I REALLY liked this at first glance, but the longer I look at it, the weirder it seems to me -- although I think it's the way she's standing. Ergo, I shall JUST MOVE QUICKLY ALONG.
Viola Davis
Her bracelet game cannot be denied, but imagine this with, say, metallic shoes. IMAGINE IT VIOLA.
Teri Hatcher
I actually think this is aces on her.
Eva Longoria
Eva, I know you own more interesting shoes than these. Also, can you please get an acting job? I know you are producing everything right now and also just got your master's and stuff, so you're busy, but you are funny and I miss you.
Allison Janney
The color of this is GREAT, but the whole look is a bit of a snooze -- which is a shame, as she is not personally a snooze. (I know that she's CJ Cregg to so many of you, and she should be to me, too, but I never see her without thinking of her Headmistress in 10 Things I Hate About You, who spend all day writing erotic novels. I once decided that she and Tobias Funke, Headmaster of the school in She's The Man, were having a secret long-distance affair, since both those movies were written by Karen McCullah & Kirsten Smith).
Jessica Capshaw
This...was a mistake. One ought not attend a luncheon in dolphin running shorts, formal though they may be. (Good lipstick, though.)
Lacey Chabert
My favorite bit of this is how much it looks like she's PLOTTING SOMETHING.
Ana Ortiz
Does this seem like it's inching toward cocktail hour? (In fairness, I also would be inching toward cocktails at this event.(
Stacy Keibler in Naeem Khan
This dress is extremely cute and 100% appropriate. Good on you, Stacy.
Constance Zimmer
I wish her purse were red. Additionally, writing this slideshow is reminding me that the Cute Day Dress is basically my favorite thing ever.
Bryce Dallas Howard
Speaking of cute day dresses, I REALLY wish BDH had decided to WEAR ONE instead of whatever this is.
Chrissy Teigen
That leather dress fits her like a dream.
Maria Bello
"Your move, Julia Roberts. Your move."
