We have been tracking Jessica Chastain's style here on the blog for a long time now. I remember sitting up and taking notice back at Cannes in May 2011 when she turned up at her first BIG red carpet arm in arm with Brad Pitt and Sean Penn. She wore red for day and yellow for night. I will never forget this. Since then I have covered nearly fifty dresses that Jess has worn either on the red carpet or in shoots. And almost all the successful ones have been bold, bright plain colours. Most frequently in electric blue like this one that she wore on Friday.

And these three that she wore in the past couple of months — including Antonio Berardi, Jason Wu and Elie Saab. Super striking and very beautiful.

Jess looks equally good in red, though, like the first time we saw her. There is something almost other-worldly about her beauty when she does this, like she did as she appeared on breakfast TV at the end of last week.

Let's remember that this is a girl who wears Burberry like it aint a thing. Off she pops to the theatre, where she is performing like a serious actress, all dressed down, looking good, big smile on her dial, no worries. You can't but warm to her. She is unaffected. Not remotely smug like you-know-who, despite her critical acclaim. And so very pretty.

And what make me really happy is that, despite 2012 and 2013 Golden Globes dresses (both of which I hated on her) she can pretty much do anything else. You want sleek, aggressive Alexander McQueen? You got it. You want pretty Preen florals? No problem. Oh, now you want Oscar de la Renta classic lace? Bring it on. This is a girl who can pretty much carry of anything. Except droopy Calvin Klein and sleeveless polo neck Givenchy of course. But aside from that. I can't wait to see what she does for the Oscars. PS: please note how she is always, always, always smiling. No moody face here. Love her.
