Cate Blanchett, Kerry Washington, Rose Byrne, and Eva Longoria — these are just some of the famous faces we spotted at the 2014 Crystal + Lucy Awards held in Century City, California, yesterday. Strangely, however, none of the said ladies captivated us long enough to make an impression. It was actually Arielle Kebbel, aka “Lexi Branson” from ‘The Vampire Diaries’, who caught our attention — thanks to her fabulous tan, bright blue dress, and festive footwear.

The actress stood out in her blue-themed ensemble. We were especially intrigued by her shoes, which were a pair of pointy slingback pumps detailed with crystals, embroidery, and peacock print. Check out Arielle’s pumps below, and then tell us if you can ID them.

Any guesses? Could those pumps be from Christian Louboutin? What do you think? We’re dying to find out here, so if you can give us any clues, please hit the comment button and let us know.

That said, you have to hand it to Arielle because she managed to upstage more than a couple of A-list stars with her outfit. We love how the blue dress complemented her tanned skin, and we especially love how she kept the whole getup interesting by capping it off with printed heels.

The dress, while beautiful and elegant, is nothing fancy. It makes a great team with the shoes, however. You just can’t help but do a double take the moment you see them together.

For those looking to steal Arielle’s style this summer, you can do so by grabbing a bright one-color shift dress and printed pumps that complement the frock. Here are three combinations from Zappos you can start with:
