Jessica Alba Goes Auburn: Love It or Hate It?

RIV/Fame

Don’t tell Jessica Alba that blondes have more fun! Less than three months after swapping her brunette hair for a light honey-blonde color, the actress has hit the salon again — and this time she’s gone auburn. We think that Jessica’s new hue suits her just as well as it does Ashlee Simpson-Wentz, who rocks the same shade. But we want to know what you think. Blonde, brunette or auburn: Which color do you think looks best on Jessica?

Ashlee Simpson-Wentz has never looked sexier, and at the Paris in L.A. party in honor of lingerie designer Carol Malony, the new mom showed off her enviable body-after-baby figure in — what else? — lingerie. “There is nothing like a great set of lingerie,” Ashlee said, showing off a bra by the designer, paired with high-waisted Catherine Malandrino shorts, a tuxedo blazer and Jimmy Choo platforms. “Carol is really detailed and intricate. I love that about her lingerie.” Ashlee told PEOPLE. Among her favorite pieces? The “Fairy Tulle” bra set that she just so happened to be wearing to the West Hollywood party. “The underwear that go with it are amazing as well — [but] only my husband can see. It’s nice for me, mostly, to feel comfortable and sexy,” she continued. And that, Carol Malony says is the philosophy behind her designs. “It’s all about making you feel terrific.” – reporting by Scott Huver

We have long been envious of Ginnifer Goodwin’s flawless skin, and when we finally caught up with the Big Love star, we learned that her secret was simple — going vegan! “I don’t think I’ve had a zit in the more than a year [that] I’ve been a vegan and I have far more energy, I sleep better, my conscience is certainly more at peace,” she told PEOPLE this week at the Humane Society and GQ magazine benefit to end puppy mills. Ginnifer even manages to make her fashion obsession mesh with her new lifestyle. Says Goodwin, “There are wonderful fashions, there’s amazing ways to incorporate it into your life” — including the Stella McCartney pumps that she paired with her animal print Escada dress for the event. But as much as she loves sparkling on the red carpet, it was her compassion for animals that brought her out, along with Khloe Kardashian and Brittny Gastineau, in support of the Humane Society. “Really I think that everything the Humane Society of the United States is trying to do is very practical and logical, you know we’re not doing anything except make the lives of animals better.” Click here to learn more about the Humane Society and its fight against puppy mills. –Reporting by Michelle Ward
