Showing a reporter the tag inside her strappy tomato-colored heels, she said, ``See? They're Jimmy Choos.'' Her rose earrings were the same color. The look she was going for? ``Vintage-y,'' she said. ``Yeah, like my jewelry. I think jewelry can do a lot for an outfit, you know, make it a lot more than it is.'' While there was plenty of jewelry to be seen on the red carpet, from diamonds to gemstones to jade, Cuthbert didn't wear a necklace. Neither did the graceful Amber Tamblyn of ``Joan of Arcadia Joan of Arcadia is an American television fantasy/family drama, which aired on Fridays, 8-9 p.m. ET/PT on CBS from September 262003 until April 222005.

And he liked it. ``It makes you feel like they're fussing again, which is great,'' he says. ``I like when people look like they tried, don't you? Because it really is polite to try.'' Mizrahi especially liked the creamy satin Bill Blass gown worn by Hope Davis from ``American Splendor.'' ``She's so cute in that dress,'' he said. Davis said she chose the dress for its clean-cut lines. ``It reminds me of a Jackie O kind of 1960s look,'' she said, ``because it's simple and yet modern.''
