FETE D'CHANEL

Posted Nov 15 2009 @ 04:48 PM

Is there ever a time that Diane Kruger doesn't look absolutely radiant? The beautiful fashionista had her hands full last week, attending several sartorial events in LA and NYC, including the annual “Fête d’Hiver” Benefit at Four Seasons Restaurant on November 4, hosted by Chanel Fine Jewelry. As expected Di arrived in a sparkling midnight blue Chanel Couture Fall 2009 dress, modified from the full length runway version to show off a flared peplum skirt and sophisticated cap sleeves (sparkle is everywhere this holiday season, so get your shine on with LaROK's Sequined Rolly Dress in Black topped with Voom by Joy Han's Sequin Bolero in Black, or for a more youthful look try Alice + Olivia's Sequin Stripe Dress in White/Black). Adding a few well chosen accessories, DK carried a black skinny clutch (love the texture of Elaine Turner's Allie Clutch in Black) and wore a plain skinny silver bracelet and ring. I'm not a fan of the long necklace – a shorter style or none at all would have been better to let the dress speak for itself. What do you think of the sparkly look? Other stars attending the event benefitting the Society of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center's pediatric wing included the always beautiful Blake Lively and Project Runway judge Nina Garcia. At the event DK told the press why she enjoy working with the classic couture house, "I work with Chanel as an ambassador for the brand and they're one of the few who always give back. I usually only go out when I have a movie to promote… When you're a girl you have to think about what to wear — it becomes a lot." But it's never to much when you have an endless array of Chanel gowns to choose from!
