Nina Dobrev In Naeem Khan - The Vampire Diaries 100th Episode Celebration

Nina Dobrev blew out the candles at ‘The Vampire Diaries’ 100th Episode Celebration yesterday, which was held in Atlanta, Georgia.

Showing off one of designer Naeem Khan’s non-gown confections, she debuted a starburst of a mini-dress—a fresh, fanciful look from the Spring 2014 collection.

The actress kept far away from vampy territory in this bright, flora- and fauna-embroidered frock that featured a brilliant rainbow of hues, which she complemented with a midnight-blue clutch and strappy sandals.

Nina did leave the braided updo on the runway, letting her long, raven locks cascade into ringlets. She also took a more minimal makeup route, with a nude lip and only a light smokey eye. No need to add more colour here.

This bold statement was short and sassy, but simultaneously chic and sophisticated. Talk about having your cake and eating it, too.
