Jimmy Choo’s CHOO.08˚Launch Red Carpet Roundup

Even more beauties came out to support Jimmy Choo’s exclusive launch party for CHOO.08˚, hosted by the label’s creative director, Sandra Choi, on Tuesday (April 15) in Beverly Hills, California. Here, a roundup of their Choo-infused looks.

January Jones: Opting for an all-black look, the ‘Mad Men’ actress enlivened the monochrome with Jimmy Choo ‘Hammer’ platform sandals, a punchy Jimmy Choo ‘Candy’ message clutch and a bright red lip. With just a few too many layers of mismatched black—and a few unfortunate creases in the tunic—I couldn’t fully get behind this look.

Jordana Brewster: Exuding effortlessly on-trend style, Jordana wore a Kate Spade Saturday sleeveless crop top, Monique Lhuillier Resort 2013 cobalt blue trousers and artsy Em Kuo box clutch. Of course, I loved the intense blue colour of her pants, not to mention the pop of that bubblegum-pink lip.

Lily Allen In Chanel and Ermanno Scervino – Out In Paris

Lily Allen was spotted out and about in Paris, France on Tuesday (April 15), where she was seen arriving at the ‘NRJ’ radio station, as well as at the Chanel boutique—naturally.

For her outing, she indeed turned to Chanel for much of her inspiration, donning a black-and-white Spring 2014 schoolgirl tunic frock, accessorized by a Chanel gold pendant necklace and a Spring 2014 rainbow tote bag.

Yes, the dress was short. But the real attention-grabber of the look had nothing to do with Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld’s collection. Rather, her bold Ermanno Scervino Fall 2013 leopard coat was responsible for taking the charm factor into more untamed territory.

The black Christian Louboutin platform pumps are also at fault. A daintier shoe would have better aligned to that bow-accented dress and her pretty pink lip.

As is, this look seems to be having an identity crisis.

Aluna Francis In Balenciaga – Jimmy Choo’s CHOO.08˚Launch

Aluna Francis kept company with fellow musician, Solange Knowles, at Jimmy Choo’s CHOO.08˚ launch event, hosted by the brand’s creative director, Sandra Choi, on Tuesday (April 15) in Beverly Hills, California.

The singer, who was fresh in from the Coachella Music Festival, rocked a legs-for-days look from the Balenciaga Spring 2014 collection.

The sheer, ribbed-tape crop top and molded peplum shorts had a cool, techno-modern edge. She emboldened the sporty-luxe, hip-hop vibe with the casual long jacket and Jimmy Choo ‘Toyko’ high-top, metallic and snake-print sneakers.

With so many pumps at this party, it was refreshing to see another Choo in the mix—even if I would have preferred to see this ensemble without the overcoat.

Lea Seydoux In Miu Miu – 4th Beijing Film Festival

Lea Seydoux attended the 4th Beijing International Film Festival at China’s National Grand Theatre on Wednesday (April 16) in Beijing, China.

Becoming the quite the queen of film festival dressing, the French actress stuns – just as she did at the Berlin Film Festival – wearing a breathtaking gown by Miu Miu.

As always, Miuccia likes to keep us on our toes, serving up a few misses (Kacey Musgraves at the ACM Awards and Du Juan at the Hong Kong Film Awards) before a gem like this takes to the red carpet.

Giving us the princess moment from this event, her pretty lilac jacquard gown with an embellished bodice and navy grosgrain waistband was styled with a simple bun and fierce blue eye makeup.

Does this beat her Berlin look, or are they equally brilliant in their own unique ways?

Fan Bingbing In Lanvin – 4th Beijing Film Festival

Fan Bingbing wore a second look during the 4th Beijing International Film Festival held at China’s National Grand Theatre on Wednesday (April 16) in Beijing, China.

Perhaps one was for the opening ceremony and one for a premiere (no confirmation on Getty); however, this Lanvin Resort 2014 aqua-blue one-shoulder gown with a ruffled trim is much more like it.

It’s unpredictable, it’s not a princess gown, it’s not embellished and I love this colour against her pale skin.

Another Louis Vuitton clutch completed her look.

Was two looks for this event excessive or do you perceive this to be typical Bingbing behaviour; overdoing it? This is the same lady who wore three gown on Oscar night back in 2013.

You may remember that Rooney Mara wore the white version of this gown back in January.

Solange Knowles In Acne Studios – Jimmy Choo’s CHOO.08˚Launch

Solange Knowles attended the launch of CHOO.08° hosted by Jimmy Choo’s creative director Sandra Choi on Tuesday (April 15) in Beverly Hills, California.

With prints apparently being so 2013, Solange continued her solid-colour streak, once again showcasing her love for all things tangerine.

Daring to bare plenty of skin while still looking modern and fresh, she donned a slightly oversized blazer and Acne Studios layered and knotted skirt, decorating her décolletage with a gold necklace, Third Crown rings and her feet with Jimmy Choo strappy sandals.
