Funny girl Anna Faris dressed up for the “Ones to Watch” party held by People Magazine at Hinoki & the Bird in Los Angeles.
The comedic actress recently launched the pilot episode of her sitcom Mom on CBS, which failed to meet the standards of quite a few critics (why, hello there, E!).
While Anna Faris will always be one of our favorite comedians, her newly sober single mom character was said to fall short on the chuckle-o-meter.

Anna Faris wore a dress by Giulietta, a simplified version of its elegant runway counterpart. The dress featured intricate black beading on the straps and an additional tier of lattice cutouts on the skirt.

The 36-year-old actress complemented her outfit with a clutch from Edie Parker and an H. Stern ring. However, we weren’t particularly fond of her satin shoes, which had a somewhat bulky, hoof-like appearance.

While the dress is interesting enough, this isn’t one of our favorite Anna Faris looks (come to think of it, the last time we saw her was in our maternity maxi dress feature) simply because the colors are all wrong.
Had this dress been on someone like Thandie Newton, we would have probably whistled an entirely different tune.

The fit is fine, and Anna looks gorgeous, but this is another classic case of “that’s not your dress.”
Perhaps if she had pulled her hair back into a classic one-sided part ponytail to reduce the yellow hues against the sea of faded blues, it might have worked better.
