Picking ten of our favorite dresses at last night’s Met Gala was fun — but picking the ten most daring looks was even better.
We narrowed down the stars’ wildest looks to the ones below. And by “daring” we mean just that — not worst, just wildest. Tell us if you agree with our picks below!

Poolside cocktails, on-trend clothes and the chance to catch up with star friends — who wouldn’t want to attend that party? Apparently, half of Hollywood agrees with us, because A-list ladies like Kristen Bell, Christina Hendricks, Emma Roberts and Hilary Duff stopped by the Theodora & Callum and Coach cocktail party last week, held at a private Beverly Hills home.
A very pregnant Bell (not pictured) was among one of the first to arrive, looking adorable in jeans and a striped top, plus a huge smile as she chatted with other pregnant attendees. She rubbed her belly throughout the afternoon and took home a red Coach “Saffiano” tote.

Hendricks (above, chatting with Roberts) opted for the black version of Bell’s Coach tote, and looked perfect for the spring weather in floral pants and a white Alice Temperley button down.
Paula Patton (laughing with Duff) arrived later in the evening and dished about her must-have accessory for spring. “With the weather always changing, a great scarf is my go-to item for spring,” she says. “Theodora & Callum make scarves with the best color and fabrics.”

She’s been with fiancé Dax Shepard for quite some time, but Kristen Bell insists she hasn’t changed her main man’s fashion sense.
“He’s had the same style for years and years and years and he’s very picky,” the actress told PEOPLE recently while promoting her shoppable film for Target, Falling for You, in L.A. But “he always looks great, so I can’t really complain.”
So does her stylish beau give the actress his opinions when she’s getting dressed for big nights out? “No,” she shared, laughing, “because I’m just not interested!”
Bell does think her own fashion focus has improved over the years, but doesn’t believe Shepard has had anything to do with the change.
“I’ve evolved in the way that I used to rely on … keeping up with trends,” she explained. “But now I kind of know what I like and I can go and find it easily, and I can wade through what are actually just trendy pieces that will be gone next season.” (Props to her: It’s something you should try, too!)

If you’re like us, you’ve spent plenty of time coveting Kristen Bell‘s wardrobe. Target knows that — and they’ve made it a cinch to get her cute clothes with one click. In the debut episode of Target’s mini-movie Falling for You, starring Bell, Nia Long and cutie Zachary Abel, viewers get their first glimpse of the 110 shoppable fashion, beauty and home items selected by celeb stylist Jen Rade. (We’ve got an exclusive look at the video here, but to nab the clothes you crave, check out the shoppable version at Target.com).
The three actors all were excited to team with Target due to their loyalty to the brand (Bell loves that they’re “on point with their trends,” while Long and Abel both note that they visit Target at least once a week) — and they all found items from the carefully curated set that they wanted to take home.

There are ways to track down the covetable fashions you spot on the silver screen (like asking us!), but Target is making the process a whole lot easier by introducing the first-ever shoppable movie, Falling for You.
Starring Kristen Bell, Nia Long and Zachary Abel — and directed by Mad Men‘s Phil Abraham — the film hits the Internet next week, and through what Target calls “an enhanced online experience,” viewers will be able to browse, share and purchase more than 110 of the retail giant’s fashion, beauty and home items. (Everything was chosen by celeb stylist Jen Rade, so you know it’s going to be good.)
At the movie’s premiere at the SLS Hotel in Los Angeles Thursday night, Bell said it was (obviously) fashion that attracted her to the project. “I’ve certainly had tons of times when I’ve watched films and said, ‘Oh, I wish I had that jacket.’ This provides a way for people to point to it, click on it and put it in their basket,” she said. “I thought it was really innovative and very forward-thinking.”

We wish Kristen Bell would just walk away. Not because we don’t love the actress (we do!), but because lately, she’s been wearing some outfits that have a seriously sexy rear view.
Namely, the black Monique Lhuillier dress that she wore on The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson earlier this week. It’s deceptively simple from the front, but features a full-back lace panel that shows a whole lot of skin and dips very low.
This is the third time in the past few weeks when we’ve wanted to give the Hit & Run star the “better from the back” stamp. The first was when she sported a satin Jenny Packham jumpsuit at the film’s L.A. premiere (the majority of StyleWatchers agreed she looked hottest from behind), and the second was at the Do Something Awards, where Bell rocked a hairstyle that looked like nothing special from the front, but was a gorgeous mix of braids in the back.
We love the idea of a dress or hairstyle that offers a little style surprise in the form of a funky rear view. And we’re especially into this latest look. Tell us: What do you think about Bell’s LBD?

With one week of summer left, you’d assume the stars would be rocking their shortest minis, strappiest sandals and brightest dresses on the red carpet. But apparently some celebs just can’t wait to debut their fall wardrobes. Check out this week’s on-the-rise trends and one look that (sadly) appears to be on its way out:
Up: Wide-leg dress pants: Say bye-bye to short-shorts because it’s all about the wide-leg pant. Kristen Bell‘s black Jenny Packham jumpsuit mixes two totally different vibes — a ’70s pant silhouette and a futuristic sculptural satin top — to create one stunning look. And another plus to the popular pant cut is it’s flattering on all body types.
