It's not easy being green -- isn't that right, Christina Ricci?

On the one hand the actress should be commended for bringing a splash of color to last night's gala celebrating Chopard's 150 years in the business.

On the other hand... well... ribbit!

Yep -- that lily pad-green vintage Galanos gown is giving us the biggest Kermit the Frog flashback we've had since Lady Gaga put her Muppetwear back in the closet.

While the bold color is a nice contrast to her dark locks, the dress's floor-length cut overwhelms the pint-sized star's petite frame, making her look less "emerald goddess" and more "victim of a sliming."

But that's nothing that a pair of scissors can't fix!

Also on hand at the fashionable event were Gwyneth Paltrow, oozing glamour in a lace Antonio Berardi gown, a Lanvin-clad Kate Hudson and Claire Danes, plus Marchesa designer Georgina Chapman in a bump-hugging feather-trimmed frock of her own design.

So what's your take? Does Christina's dress make you want to croak, or are you green with envy? Leave a comment.

There's no doubt that Britney Spears looks fabulous in her dark skinnies and black boots. But why the peek-a-boo bra? The 70's hair? And the lace collar? The stunning star certainly has one kooky sense of style.

Gwen Stefani brought her entire brood to church to attend a family christening. The one thing Gwen didn't bring was one of her usually chic outfits -- this striped ensemble (complete with white tights and strappy shoes) was a big mess. So don't try this one at home, kids -- if it's too bad to look good on Gwen, no one should be caught dead in it.

Nicole Kidman arrived at the 45th Annual Academy Of Country Music Awards in a 'feminine take on the tuxedo' dress by L'Wren Scott that she paired with witch-like lace-up booties. Her flat hair and bright red lips didn't make up for the unflattering award show ensemble.

Halle Berry stopped by a party in one very busy outfit. From her see-through paneled pants to her silk lurex Isabel Marant top to her Byson Gilet vest by AllSaints, Berry's outfit wasn't quite a home run.

Ivanka Trump provided her own bling for the American Museum of Natural History's 2010 Museum Dance. She wore diamond tassel earrings and a pave diamond link bracelet from her Ivanka Trump Fine Jewelry Collection. But when it comes to her Donna Karan dress, we're not sure the effect was so sparkling. Why hide her lovely figure in such a big, billowy dress? And what's with the red shoes?
