When one of our favorite Kates [1] (be it Middleton [2] or otherwise) steps out in a Jenny Packham gown [3], you know the style stakes are high. And if that appearance should come on a Sunday, well that's guaranteed to be one very chic week.
Sure enough, Kate Beckinsale [4] started a streak of fashion when she arrived for London's Empire Film Awards in a cutout column from the designer. And that was just the beginning. Jennifer Connelly [5] did her part a few days later in Alexander McQueen while Shailene Woodley rounded out the week in Donna Karan Atelier. See all the looks we loved on some very chic ladies.
