Sparkly Dresses at Critics' Choice Awards 2013

The A-list looks on the Critics' Choice Awards red carpet went a little something like this: sparkle, shine, embellish, and repeat. If you don't believe us, shield your eyes. We're serious. These starlets were dressed to dazzle — eye-catching add-ons and all. While Elle Fanning's overtly playful Chanel number was adorned with sweet floral appliqué details, Emily Blunt's glamorous Miu Miu dress stood out thanks to a "shorter" hem and decadent neckline, and Anne Hathaway's gold Oscar de la Renta dress was all about nonstop shine (you can thank those intricately spiraled bugle beads). And if you're in need of some serious proof? Marion Cotillard's Zuhair Murad fit-and-flare dress is your defining answer. Actually, we take that back. Nina Dobrev's full-on teal jeweled Monique Lhuillier minidress proved a real scene-stealer. However you spin it, find sequins, beading, metallic ruffles, and more right this way.
