Kristen Bell's Dress Is Anything But Predictable — Does It Work?

Hearing that a celebrity wore a black dress on the red carpet may not initially strike you as groundbreaking. But leave it to Kristen Bell to separate herself from the pack. The star's secret lies in her choice to wear a dress that catches the light — in more ways than one. Yes, the slightly asymmetrical neckline and strategically placed cutout add sexiness, but it's the slight sheen of the fabric and the shimmer of its sequin embellishment that really caught our eye. A black clutch, black satin Brian Atwood platform sandals, and a pair of gorgeous drop earrings rounded out her slightly edgy look. Were you a fan? Let us know below!
