I can not get over how stunning Camilla Belle looked at The Art of Elysiums Annual Black Tie Gala last week. The Brazilian actress showed up in a colorful polka-dot printed Carolina Herrera gown that really blew me away.
I couldn't help but notice, though, that she wasn't the only one at the gala rocking bold prints: Kirsten Dunst sported a checker board printed dress by Louis Vuitton, Rachel Bilson was in a hot pink leopard print Valentino gown, and Julianne Hough wore an elegant floral print frock by Jenny Packham. If this doesn't prove that prints are totally in this season, I don't know what does. Prints really do help create rhythm and liven up a look. The best part is that they can literally work for any occasion. You just have to know how to work it. Check out a few print-charming pieces you totally have to get your hands on this year!
