All Hail Elizabeth Banks

There have been a lot of Hunger Games related posts on the site recently, but I can't help it. I'm absolutely fascinated and leaning towards obsessed. The movie comes out Friday, but this will basically be going on until the end of March. I'm not sorry!

But let's get down to it, Elizabeth Banks has been rocking the premieres like it's nobody's business. Not only has she been consistently fashionable, she's created a theme worthy of Effie Trinket herself. All of her dresses have been bright, sparkly, and in fruity colors. I just love it.

At the Los Angeles premiere, she started out with a short orange dress with fun plastic swirls. Then in London she donned a long yellow Bill Blass gown. For the Paris premiere she chose a holographic magenta Marc Jacobs dress, and at the latest premiere in Berlin, Elizabeth went with orange again in a long Elie Saab.

I feel like it's so perfect. I swear Cinna is her stylist.

London Premiere Fashion

The Hunger Games cast traveled to London for another premiere and they did not disappoint! Check out Jennifer Lawrence and Elizabeth Banks killing it on the red carpet in Ralph Lauren and a backless Bill Blass.

I like that these ladies are creating a color scheme for their premiere wardrobes. Jennifer is wearing metallics in the gold family, while Elizabeth is going for citrus tones. I also like that they're both reminiscent of fire *hint hint.

If you want to read about the premiere, check out this article written by my friend Darci. You can find more "behind the scenes" stuff on her blog. She's studying abroad in London right and went to the premiere at the O2 Arena. Oh, and did I mention that she got to see the VIP screening? Yeah, she's kind of awesome.

Notable Fashion from The Hunger Games Premiere

It has started! The first premiere for The Hunger Games was held in Los Angeles, which means we're getting closer and closer to the grand release date.

Let's start with Jennifer Lawrence, who completely aced the night in her gold Prabal Gurung gown. It had cutout sides and back, an ultra cool metallic sheen, and some sheer fabric on the shoulders. I love her hair and dark nails, too. She definitely looks like a girl on fire. 

Next up is Elizabeth Banks, who also went for a fiery approach to fashion. Her orange dress featured plastic, circular designs, which I have to admit is growing on me (It's very Effie, no?). The hair, however, I'm not feeling.

Some people are saying that Miley Cyrus stole the night with her cropped top, but I think Jennifer still wins. I like Miley's hair short and I don't hate the outfit, I'm just not sure if the gypsy-esque ensemble was appropriate for the night.

Tributes Glimmer and Foxface, played by Levin Rambin and Jacqueline Emerson, get high marks from me for their colorful gowns. I love how it almost looks like they choose them based off of what would look good with their hair colors. I must say though, with the sparkle and plunging neckline, Levin wins this round.

The fashion surprise of the night was Amandla Stenberg who plays little Rue. She looks adorable and sophisticated at the same time, and I love that green! The cap sleeves are fabulous, as is her 1920s inspired hair. Can I have a bigger version pf this dress for myself?

What were your favorite fashions at the premiere?

Hey, Abigail, Can I Borrow Your Dress?

Abigail Breslin arrived at the Los Angeles premiere of her new movie New Year's Eve looking absolutely gorgeous in a white dress from the Marchesa Fall 2011 collection. She accessorized with champagne colored peep toes, diamond posts, blue/gray smokey eyes, and pink lips.

In the movie, now playing in theaters, Abigail plays Sarah Jessica Parker's daughter, Hailey. The romantic comedy features her first on-screen kiss with Wizards of Waverly Place Star Jake T. Austin.

I absolutely love this look. She looks great and totally appropriate for her age, which can definitely be attributed to her fun hair and makeup. And how can you not love that little hoop skirt? Will you be seeing New Year's Eve?
