It’s here again, when the fabulous worlds of fashion and female empowerment collide to honor all the women in Hollywood- from newcomers to legends- who have made a mark and paved the way. It all went down last night in Beverly Hills at the Four Seasons Hotel, and I can say everyone “shut it down” (as Rachel Zoe would say):

Katie Cassidy wore a sparkling halter Lela Rose dress, Jimmy Choo sandals, and a Celestina clutch. The fit was great on her, love the pulled back hair, and I die for a smoky eye!

Modest mama and honoree Katie Holmes kept it simple and plain in Azzedine Alaia, but on trend with a sheer see-through top. I would have loved to see Katie up the glam factor, but what can we say? It’s Katie, Mrs. Cruise if ya’ nasty!

A pregnant Jenna Elfman showed off her baby bump in a Richard Sorger mini dress with fringe sleeves, Miu Miu sandals, Leyla clutch, and really dope Erickson Beamon necklace and ring. Love this look!

Honoree Zoe Saldana, who was awarded the Calvin Klein Collection Spotlight Award, wore none other than Calvin Klein Collection fresh off the runway, and Christian Louboutin pumps. Love this look on Zoe, I also love how she’s finally getting the recognition she deserves as an actress after so many years in the game.

Ford model Amber Rose came out rocking a strapless red mini with ruffle side detail, and YSL pumps. It’s an unusually understated look for the Rose garden but the lashes are hot (although you can’t see it here). But, umm, is that a name chain she’s wearing? Toto, you’re not in Philly anymore.

So to follow up with my ‘Best Of 2008: Mommies’ post, I have another compilation of the Best Dressed Of 2008– T.V. Stars. Whether it’s reality T.V. or scripted T.V. (in this age, you really can’t tell the difference!) I have MY 10 best dressed ladies on T.V.:
Number 10: Kimora Lee Simmons

Life In The Fab Line, Reality T.V. (E! & Style Networks)
I vote Kimora for the flyest and most fabulous mama on T.V., hands down! She gave new meaning to office attire, never wearing the predictable, boring business suits or knee length skirts. Very fun, and loud her style rings true to her persona. It’s vibrant, it’s over-the-top and it’s fabulous! Ming & Aoki Lee have some big shoes to fill.
Number 9: Kim Kardashian

Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Reality T.V. (E! Network)
Kim Kardashian, obviously the more known of the Kardashian clan, never disappoints when it comes to style. But were you expecting her too? I mean, she was a stylist first.
Number 8: Angela Simmons

Run’s House, Reality T.V. (MTV)
Angela seems to be the more crazy, fun one of the set of sisters, and her style is true to her personality. It’s very young, fun and carefree, and she stays on top of trends. In this ever revolving door of fashion, Angela always make sure she’s in instead of out.
Number 7: Vanessa Simmons

Run’s House, Reality T.V. (MTV)
Vanessa is obviously the more mature sister, and her style proves the same. While Angela likes to play with colors and trendy pieces, Vanessa keeps it fresh and classic by mixing wardrobe staples and never going over board with the accessories. She plays it safe without being overly boring. Great way to straddle the fence Ness.
Number 6: Whitney Port

The Hills & The City, Reality T.V. (MTV)
Whitney Port would have to be my favorite cast member on The Hills. For one, she’s a lot more laid back and least dramatic than the other girls, and not to mention the most stylish. It’s obvious that fashion is her thing, and she never lets us forget it. Best of luck to Whit with her new gig at DVF and her new show The City (which will be premiering on MTV some time this week).
Number 5: Becki Newton

Ugly Betty, Scripted T.V. (ABC)
Ugly Betty’s bad girl, Amanda, commands attention every room she walks into. Either it’s her conniving, sarcastic attitude or her great sense of fashion, we don’t know, although I choose to go with the latter. Always in top-notch designer duds and ‘it’ shoes and accessories, it leaves you wondering…. how much does MODE pay her to be the receptionist? And where can I sign up?
