Recent Red Carpet Styles

Spring sees some of the biggest stars gracing the red carpet and promoting their blockbuster or their arthouse classic.  This year’s Cannes Film  Festival saw the premiere of Wall Street 2, with Michael Douglas, Shia LaBeouf and Carey Mulligan, as well as Woody Allen’s new movie starring Naomi Watts and several European arthouse selections.   The Met Costume Gala, held just weeks ago, also featured some haute couture jewelry styles, as did the Iron Man 2 premiere with style favorite Gwyneth Paltrow on the red carpet.  Here are some of the stars sporting hot styles that can hopefully inspire you for the summer.

Gwyneth Paltrow Gwyneth Paltrow. Style Icon, Oscar Winner and creator of the lifestyle inspiration blog, GOOP, Paltrow never fails to impress on the red carpet. Seriously, whenever she goes out in a new ensemble, photos of her end up going to print everywhere. So it’s no surprise, then, that her blazer and short shorts trend is now being copied everywhere. Gwyneth’s white blazer and short shorts at the Iron Man 2 premiere were Giorgio Armani custom-made and she accessorized with sunburst diamond earrings. For a similar look, check out these classic diamond stud earrings that Since 1910 has to offer.
Eva Longoria Eva Longoria. Even though she had nothing to promote there, Eva Longoria graced the Cannes Film Festival with some classic Old Hollywood elegance. This “Desperate Housewives” star stole the limelight with her Emilio Pucci gown. Some have commented that Longoria seems to have a penchant for long trains, fashion and diamond drop earrings, and fantastic rings. Longoria wore somethign somewhat similar to her own wedding! Kate Beckinsale and Salma Hayek were also spotted sporting diamond drop earrings. Want to sport a similar style?
