Over the weekend, Ashley attended the Art of Elysium Gala. She wore a show-stopping, graphic strapless dress in black and white, with a subtle mermaid silhouette. The dress was by red-carpet queen Monique Lhuillier, from her 2014 resort collection. Ashley accessorized with H Stern jewels, Sergio Rossi stilettos, and a Jimmy Choo clutch. Divine.

Her stylist Joey Tierney had this to say about her pick: "One of the biggest red carpet events of Golden Globes weekend is Art of Elysium Gala. We knew this was her gown the moment we put it on her during our fitting."

For her beauty look, Ashley went totally simple to let the major gown shine. Her hair was sleekly pulled back, and her make-up was subtle and almost bare, with just a pink lip and some eyeliner. All the better to let those H Stern earrings shine. Yowza!
