Judging by the red carpet looks seen at the Grammys and the creations sent down the runways at New York Fashion Week, we have a sneaking suspicion we’ll be spotting a lot more navy and a lot more menswear-inspired getups in the coming weeks. But there’s one style you can pretty much write off (and don’t expect to see much of it at the Oscars): Studio 54-esque dresses.

Up: Navy Instead of Black. The LBD and LWD better watch out: There’s another shade gunning for the spotlight. This week everyone from Emmy Rossum and Anne Hathaway to Oprah Winfrey and M iranda Lambert slipped into midnight blue. And we totally understand the appeal of the color. It’s a bit more interesting and unexpected than black, but equally flattering on all shapes and sizes.

We’re not going to lie: if we were celebrities, we’d be wearing all the poshest, priciest things designers could offer us for our red carpet events. Which is why we have newfound appreciation for (from left) Eva Longoria, Jessica Alba and Michelle Williams, who each wore an under-$100 find on the red carpet this week.

Longoria swears she doesn’t care about fashion, but she sure fakes it well while visiting the New York Stock Exchange Tuesday in this cute trench-inspired H&M dress (only $79.95) cinched with a gold belt by the retailer ($17.95). She looks like a million bucks — quite a feat, considering she spent less than $100.

Jessica Alba: I’ve Worn a Fluorescent Unitard with Doc Martens

It’s hard to believe that the star whose street style we most worship has ever made a wardrobe misstep. But rather than bury the evidence, Jessica Alba is sharing her biggest fashion fail with Women’s Health (proof that stars are not like the rest of us; we may or may not have burned our sixth grade class photos).

“What do I regret wearing? There’s so many, I don’t think I could choose just one,” she admits. “I definitely rocked a Lycra unitard-y thing … One fluorescent color on one side, another fluorescent color on the other side with keyhole cutouts all the way up the body. I rocked it so hard with my Doc Martens.”

These days, the actress and Honest Company founder prefers colored denim and moto jackets to full-body neon Spandex. On her must-have list: a denim jacket, a sharp coat, a great pair of jeans, a fitted blazer, neutral t-shirts and an LBD.

Check out an ab-baring exclusive photo from the Women’s Health shoot (below), and pick up the March issue of Women’s Health to find out more of Alba’s fashion and beauty tips, as well as details about her new book, The Honest Life. Tell us: What’s your biggest fashion regret?

Saturday night: Who knew that we’d still be taking outfit inspiration from Felicity 15 years later? Keri Russell straddles the line of chic and hot with one effortlessly sexy look. She balances her leather leggings (we love this vegan pair) with a structured white tank (like this $29 one from Urban Outfitters), plus tousled waves, a pretty pink lip and bombshell stilettos (similar to this $69 Nine West pair).

We’re hardly shocked when we spot two celebs wearing the same thing, but rarely do we see multiple stars donning something that’s as bold as the checkerboard print from Louis Vuitton’s spring 2013 collection.

In just one week, Kerry Washington, Kirsten Dunst and Jessica Alba all plucked dresses directly from the label’s runway — and looked anything but square.

Django Unchained‘s Washington left our office divided when she wore a mid-calf champagne-and-cream dress accessorized with a bow headband and white Christian Louboutin pumps for her film’s photo call in Berlin last Tuesday.

Jan/14/2013 at 03:45 PM ET

We’ve already made our best dressed list, but after Tweeting the night away with the #peopleglobes team, celeb stylist Brad Goreski and Fashion Star host Louise Roe were kind enough to share their picks, too. Interestingly, they only had one overlap — can you guess who it was?

Bonus: Roll over each of the photos below (from Stipple.com) to read fun details on designers, accessories and films — and to see some of these glam gowns on the runway!

Brad’s picks:

Julianne Moore in Tom Ford. “Julianne is the queen of chic,” Goreski tells PEOPLE. “This look is elegant, sophisticated and sexy, not to mention the graphic black and white is very on trend.”

The Lipstick Report: Golden Globes Edition

Jan/14/2013 at 01:00 PM ET

Red was the color of the night when it came to gowns, but there was hardly a red lip to be seen on any star at the Golden Globe Awards on Sunday night. Instead, we spotted a sea of pink, plum, fuchsia and nude pouts; here are the 11 ladies whose lip colors we loved and the exact shade they were wearing.

Amy Adams: To ensure that her delicate blush Marchesa gown didn’t wash her out, Adams’s makeup artist, Stephen Sollitto, went for a richer lip. He applied Laura Mercier Crème Smooth Lip Colour in Plum Orchid underneath the line’s Lip Glacé in Raspberry for a hint of shine. The results? One pretty pink pout.
