Fashion Spotlight: Bethany Joy Lenz is Romantic Gothic on “Middle of Nowhere” Red Carpet

from the Fall 2011 Of Two Minds Fashion Show

On the Wednesday, June 20th premiere of Sharon Lawrence's indie film, “Middle of Nowhere” - a very sexy Bethany Joy Lenz stepped out looking more beautiful than we’ve ever seen!

Our elegantly edgy babe wore a black Of Two Minds cap-sleeve minidress featuring a plunging V-neckline and sheer lace panels that accentuate her waistline and expose a modest amount of skin. This gothic dress is a little darker than one would expect on a hot summer day but the relaxed fit and flirty lace really flatters her extra-petite frame and leaves it perfectly poised for the hot L.A. weather!

Bethany Joy Lenz's Ombre Hair

Although I’m not a fan of the full skirt with a handkerchief hemline (it reminds me of Morticia from The Adams Family - I'm sorry, but it does!) -the cut of the hem does manage to keep up with the rhythm of our vibrant and feminine, free-spirit as she struts down the red carpet.

Joy complements this desirable dark style with gold earrings and bracelets from Robindira Unsworth, nude heels from Stuart Weitzman and a black clutch from Feragamo.

To finish the look off our starry-eyed diva showcases her seductive tousled waves and her ombre look. I adore, adore, adore how her dark roots fade into a sun-kissed honey hue at the end and how her longer hair exudes youth!

Ms. Joy Lenz you are a rare breed – the exception to the rule – you really do seem to get younger and more radiant with each day.

The Verdict: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Bracelets from Robindira Unsworth & black clutch from Feragamo

Nude heels from Stuart Weitzman

(One thing – I would love to see Joy in more diverse colors, and patterns. She’s been doing a lot of black lately – I need more pop like her fuchsia strapless maxi dress from earlier this year.)

Fashion Update: Joanne Black on Joy's Golden Globes Party Look

A big shoutout to Joanne Black for her beautiful styling work with Bethany Joy Galeotti at the Forevermark & InStyle Beauty & Brilliance Celebration on January 10. Here's what the sought-after stylist had to say about that look:

BETHANY JOY GALEOTTI GLISTENS AT GOLDEN GLOBES PARTY

"All eyes are on Los Angeles this week as it gears up for its 69th Golden Globes awards ceremony. And, with the parties already underway, it’s not just the on-screen action that’s the talk of the town. Where there are red carpets, there are great outfits, and it was wonderful for me to work with Bethany Joy Galeotti to make sure she looked the part for her big moment.

& InStyle Red Carpet

Having just finished TV show One Tree Hill, Bethany’s brief to me was to help her stand out from the crowd at the Forevermark and InStyle party. And, with the L’Wren Scott dress I selected because it worked beautifully with her natural colouring and body shape, I think we did just that. We had great fun when we met up trying on different looks and, even though I ended up adding some vintage gold earrings, a beige Pucci clutch purse and a rust and gold YSL ring, it was a nice touch that we were able to use her own shoes to complete the look.

Whoever walks away with a Golden Globe this year, the sheer volume of photos of Bethany’s dress online shows that her red carpet performance won’t easily be forgotten. You can watch Bethany in action and enjoy a close up of that striking look."
