Rachel Bilson [1] may have been on red carpet maternity leave [2], but we welcome any style star back to the scene — especially when she's got a few fresh outfit ideas up her sleeve [3].
The actress made an entrance at the No Kid Hungry benefit dinner in a satin tea-length dress that commanded attention. Yes, Rachel is completely aware it's Fall. No, that doesn't mean pastel pink [4] or florals are out of the question. The flirty yet modest Jonathan Saunders number, which comes from the designer's Resort '16 collection, was perfectly appropriate when paired with all the right accessories — one of which Rachel Instagrammed [5] on the way to her event, like a true fashion girl would.
Read on to see how Rachel held onto Summer in the midst of Autumn, then shop her flawless look and wear it all year round. We promise, this pretty little outfit is so anti-"Ew!" Sorry, we had to.
Rachel's Resort '16 Jonathan Saunders dress flattered her petite frame and featured dark red bouquets that were complemented perfectly by her heels.
Rachel turned to the side, showing us another angle of her feminine, A-line silhouette.
Rachel's single pearl earrings definitely popped against her dress, playing up the design's sheen.
"Girl with a pearl," Rachel captioned her accessory shot on Instagram.
Rachel completed her design with red Paul Andrew pumps that took a subtle crescent silhouette.
