Eva looks devilishly good in Zac Posen, which she wore for an appearance on Letterman last night to promote her new movie We Own the Night. The dress hugs her in all the right places (although maybe a bit too much around the hips?), and the copper-tone pumps set off her warm complexion perfectly. Viva la Eva!

While most celebs opted for neutral hues tonight, Ginnifer Goodwin stood out from the crowd wearing a cap-sleeve orange Monique Lhuillier creation. The sheer and beading detail up top draws attention to Ginnifer's flawless face, while a slit down below shows off her silver satin pumps. Eye-catching jeweled stud earrings, bronzed eyeshadow, and a neutral lip finish off her flair. What's your verdict on Ginnifer's juicy orange outfit?

We are pumped to share one of our fave stories from espnW here on FitSugar!

April Holmes may have lost part of her leg, but the Paralympics star refuses to be seen as handicapped. She's on a quest to finish what she started in 2008 and come home with two medals in London. Follow more journeys to London on espnW.com.

April Holmes was in first place during the 200-meter final at the 2008 Paralympics in Beijing when the spike on her prosthetic left leg got caught on the track, causing her to fall to the ground. Another competitor stepped on Holmes' face with a track spike. Holmes also caused Marie-Amelie le Fur of France to fall. Despite a right eye filled with blood and a bruised leg, Holmes hobbled to the finish line to complete the race. "I have this thing about finishing whatever you start, so despite my condition I was going to cross the finish line," she wrote in her blog.

Five days later, despite being sore and tired, Holmes raced in the 100-meter final. Her leg and hips hurt so much she could barely warm up. She even told her competitors they were going to win the race. "I could barely lift my leg, but I never let [my family] know," Holmes said. "They would be too concerned and I didn't need the pity party. Instead, I needed energy and God." As Holmes likes to say it was "by the grace of God," that she crossed the finish line to win gold in the 100 in 13.72 seconds. That's three seconds slower than the able-body Olympic record held by Florence Griffith-Joyner. Holmes would later discover she did it all with a labral tear in her left hip.

Holmes was elated with her first gold, but on the flight home she couldn't help but think she should have two medals around her neck. That's why she began training two months later for the 2012 Games. Her goal is to claim the 200 medal that eluded her in Beijing.

Before the Paralympics - where she became the fastest amputee in her class, holding world records in the 100, 200 and 400 - Holmes was an All-American in the 400 and 4x400 relay at Norfolk State. After graduation she started working and gave up competitive athletics.

Read on for how April ended up competing in the Paralympics.

Golden Globes Afterparty: Kate Walsh

FabSugar — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 08:18:47 PST

Kate Walsh stepped out last night in a strapless, icy-white cocktail dress and nude pointy-toe pumps. The ruffled neckline, complete with delicate white feathers, dressed up the monochromatic look with a light, feminine touch. Kate kept the rest of the evening ensemble simple and sleek - diamond droplet earrings, a bronzed glow, and a slicked back ponytail rounded out the Private Practice star's party wear. What do you think?

Evan Rachel Wood struck a chord earlier in the evening with an emerald Old Hollywood-style Gucci Premiere gown, but for the afterparty scene, the Ides of March actress went for menswear-inspired perfection. Evan Rachel wore a black tuxedo jacket paired with slim black pants; underneath, she opted for a shimmery bronzed asymmetrical top. Her gold boxy clutch, gold rings, grayish purple-tinted nails, and black peep-toe pumps rounded out her sleek look. What do you think?

Brittney Stephens — Fri, 29 Apr 2011 04:14:59 PDT

Princess Eugenie of York and Princess Beatrice of York arrived at Westminster Abbey wearing two gorgeous outfits - a bright blue, floral-printed dress by Vivienne Westwood and a nude A-line dress from Valentino Couture, respectively. Princess Eugenie went for a colorful look, wearing a bold blue dress with a voluminous skirt, flowered jacket, and peacock-feathered hat. She accessorized with bronze pumps and a matching box clutch. Princess Beatrice, on the other hand, opted for a subdued, neutral look - she wore a dusty-pink, A-line belted coat with nude t-strap heels and a very amazing, very Lady Gaga-esque fascinator. Which princess do you think looked the prettiest?
