Fashion Update: Joy is Mod-Cute at Zooey Relaunch Party!

Bethany Joy Lenz poses at
Zooey Magazine's Relaunch Party
The always captivating Bethany Joy Lenz strode down the red carpet for Zooey Magazine’s Relaunch Party at Bardot Hollywood on March 17, 2012 rocking a soft and sweet ballerina-esque look. The newly single actress was glammed up in a demure spaghetti strap dress with a sweetheart neckline and mid-rise waist with a flared silhouette. A beige and ivory bodice tops a black skirt, while a wide band emphasizes her super petite waist. The dress alone is a bit muted and is missing a certain je ne sais quoi. However, Joy brings her look to life with ultra bold hot pink pumps, extra flirty amethyst embellished jewelry, and sultry makeup.

In this ensemble Joy’s accessories are everything. Joy completes her look by pulling her blonde tresses in a high ballerina bun to give this look a chic upgrade. Also not to be forgotten is Joy's cool leather jacket which she's paired with this versatile look to achieve an edgier style.

While the dress is softly feminine the accessories make this sweet style damn sexy!

My verdict: ★ ★ ★ ★


Also check out this exclusive Bethany Joy Lenz interview thanks to 



In response to whether or not she intends to go back to television, Joy enthusiastically says yes and says “it just takes some time to figure out what the right thing is.” Joy strikes me as an actress who only pursues quality projects that she is completely invested in and doesn’t just leap at the first script her agent sends her way. I really love that about her.

As if that weren't enough, Joy also mentions that she is still working on her music with her mega-talented producer Ron Aniello – which begs the question  – is Joy looking to release more music as a solo act? We’ll see. Either way, it seems like Joy fans have a lot to look forward to!

Fashion Update: Bethany is the Queen of Effortless Chic

Galeotti poses at the 2012 Winter TCA Tour
The always fabulous Bethany Joy Galeotti mingled with her One Tree Hill castmates in Pasadena, California on January 12 wearing a sassy number by London-based designer, Julia Clancey.

Joy commands attention in this sleeveless nude shift dress which features show stopping metallic panel embellishments and gorgeous sequence and jewel embroidering on the bottom hemline. The bold metallic square details contrasts beautifully to the nude tulle to create a wonderful luxe edge.

Unlike Joy’s body hugging L'wren Scott dress at the Forevermark And InStyle Golden Globes Event, this shift dress is not form fitting at all. However, it compensates for its relaxed fit by showing a generous amount of leg.

Joy puts all focus on the dress with a top-knot ballerina bun. She transforms her look with a high-fashion style and I love that she achieved a glamorous look with this neat and polished ‘do.

Joy embodies youth and femininity with her captivating style. Definitely one of my favorites and I wish we could have seen full length photos. Given the short length of the dress, it was definitely meant to be appreciated holistically (shame on you photographers).

Regardless, it's easy to tell from the photos that Joy was without a doubt, the focus of the party! Such an effortless beauty.

My verdict: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Joy's been on a roll with her looks as of late. I absolutely love her creative fashion choices, it makes her look so much fun to interpret.

Fashion Update: Bethany is Vintage Glamorous

Bethany Joy Galeotti looks absolutely breathtaking in this exquisite vintage L'wren Scott dress. The simple classic cut on this dress, along with the high neckline and form fitting construct are extra flattering on Joy’s petite frame. I also love the sheer lace overlay which is decorated in polka dots and enhances the delicate femininity of the dress.

I wish the dress had a cut out keyhole back to make it a little flirtier, but Joy makes up for the lack of skin. The dress is figure-hugging in the best possible way and accentuates her incredible post-pregnancy body.

Joy’s hair has a deep side part, with oversized waves; a cleaned up/modern take of the popular 80s look. Her side-swept hair is a gorgeous look, although it photographs weird in certain angles - but I'm willing to overlook that.

Complementing the gown, are large antique gold accessories that bring a much needed splash of color to this otherwise simple dress.

I adore her look! Joy is so glamorous.

My Rating: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Also here's a video of Joy walking the red carpet:


I love that Joy has been exercising her right to take pictures. It's about time! She's to gorgeous not to take pics frequently.

This look along with the Joy's look at An Evening With One Tree Hill is featured in Joy's latest installment of #WardrobeWednesday. To learn more about Joy's unique looks visit bethanyjoy.com or click HERE.

Fashion Update: Bethany is a Bohemian Bombshell

Bethany Joy Galeotti brings a much needed splash to The CW's "An Evening with One Tree Hill" dressed in a fuchsia strapless floor-length maxi dress. The dress offers an effortless silhouette to Joy's petite frame and just exudes chic! I love how the dress is bold yet easy and breezy and just the right amount of sexy. What a bombshell!

Special mention, though, must be given to Joy's fabulous accessories. The layered necklaces are the perfect accent to the dress. The antique-gold is interspersed with pearls and looks absolutely divine!

And off course Joy finishes her look off with whimsical waves that are to die for. The cascading waves frame her face to a sexy, undone effect while bringing out her lips and eyes. 

Not like you didn't see it coming, but here's my verdict on Joy's look: 

My Rating: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

(Joy also seems to have a jean jacket in tow, which I would've loved to see on her in some of these pics).
