In May 2016, Confessions of a Shopaholic actress Krysten Ritter broke the leg-or-boob rule at the 20th annual Webby Awards held at the Cipriani Wall Street in New York City.

Eight years earlier, she starred in a supporting role as Kelly in the 2008 American romantic comedy film What Happens in Vegas.

A box office success despite negative reviews from critics, the film had its U.S. premiere on May 1, 2008, when Krysten Ritter was 26 years old. She celebrated her 27th birthday on December 16, 2008.

The same year, she started filming the 2009 American romantic comedy film Confessions of a Shopaholic. Portraying Suze Cleath-Stuart, the best friend of Isla Fisher’s character, Ritter was 27 years old when the movie premiered on February 13, 2009.

Isla Fisher celebrated her 33rd birthday on February 3, 2009, just a few days before the premiere of the movie.

While Suze is blonde in the popular Shopaholic series of novels by Sophie Kinsella that you can buy on Amazon, Ritter was cast due to the strength of her performance.

“One day we were shooting outside of SCOOP NYC (a store in NYC’s Meatpacking District) and it was pretty windy. Of course I was wearing a schoolgirl-style skirt and I flashed all the background actors and paparazzi my bum'” Ritter told Seventeen about filming the movie.

“Luckily, they ran and got me some Spanx so it wouldn’t happen again. Oy vey — just what I need … pictures of my rear end on the Internet!”

At the 2016 Webby Awards, the then-34-year-old actress took the plunge at the event, flashing both décolletage and slender legs in a shimmering black mini dress from Zuhair Murad’s Fall 2015 couture collection.

She looked like a real winner in the long-sleeved silk crepe dress, which had a deep v-neckline, a thigh-grazing hemline, glittering silver lines, and star embellishments.

The “Jessica Jones” star took to the stage to accept the Webby Best Actress award from her co-star Mike Colter.

Winners were only allowed to present a five-word acceptance speech, and the actress kept it very brief, saying: “Thank you, thank you, thank.”

Krysten teamed her star-spangled frock with a pair of lace-up shoes that highlighted her legs further. She accessorized with a pair of dangling earrings, a statement ring, and a matching crystal-embellished clutch to add some more bling to the look.

She wore her raven tresses down in loose waves and sported minimal makeup, with just a slick of bright red lipstick to add color to the entire look.
