Parties! The style, stars and scoop from Hollywood's hottest events

Sophisticated stars like Kristen Bell, Becki Newton, and Rebecca Gayheart were the first to ogle the frocks and accessories—with stylists in tow and champagne in hand—at the grand opening of designer Monique Lhuillier's new Melrose Place boutique in West Hollywood. The chic space—decorated with neutral tones, rich wood and crystal chandeliers—proved to be the perfect showcase for Lhuillier's to-die-for wedding gowns and jewel-toned dresses, as did the leading ladies who wore her designs for the occasion. "I just love Monique's stuff," said Bell. "She's so classy!"
