Gabrielle Union and Jessica Alba at the Monte Carlo TV Festival Cocktail Party

After relentlessly coordinating their promo looks – and doing a fine job of it – these ladies opted to take a breather and each go their own way. They still look coordinated slightly, but only in the sense that they dressed for the same occasion and up to the same standards. They get how the promo cycle works, these two.

Having said that – and in full admission that this is not a competition and we shouldn’t be pitting women against each other – we nonetheless have to give the win to Miss Gabrielle. The color looks stunning on her, the simplicity of the design is very much to her benefit, and the jewelry is exquisitely chosen. We’re afraid we don’t love the print of Jessica’s dress or the fact that the hem looks a little sloppy, almost as if it’s coming undone. Can’t say we love the sandals either. The head wrap is cute, but it doesn’t feel like it coordinates well with the rest of the look. Like we said, it’s not a competition, but to our eyes, there’s no denying which one of these two nailed it for the night.
