Krysten Ritter looked absolutely stunning at the Van Cleef and Arpels Bowers Museum Exhibit Gala in Santa Ana. When I first saw this look, I thought Audrey Hepburn. Ritter looked classic, chic, elegant but with a modern twist. The lilac hue and full skirt is so feminine and her bare middle and berry lips added a hint of sexiness. This Katie Ermilio dress is really the perfect combination of old and new.

We all know I love a good jumpsuit but Darby Stanchfield's is too amazing to be classified as just 'good.' First of all, I am already in love with Stanchfield from watching her as Abby Whelan every week on Scandal. How can you not love a fiery red head who is smart, sassy and works for Olivia Pope?
