Style File: Jurnee Smollett

From 'Temptation' to 'True Blood,' this sweet starlet is hot right now! Check out the actress' ten best fashion moments we loved.

By Celia L. Smith · March 27, 2013October 28, 2020
01
Tempting Style

At the Atlanta screening of her upcoming film Temptation: Confessions Of A Marriage Counselor, Jurnee donned a sexy Pamella Roland deep plum gown with side swept ‘do and Elahn jewels for old-Hollywood hotness.

Pop Star

At Watch What Happens Live, Jurnee opted for a not-so-mellow sequin trimmed dress that was short, sweet and to the point!

Cocktail Chic

The young starlet strays away from her solid statements for a party print top and black leather skirt and clutch for added edge at an evening of cocktails and shopping at Coach.

Bodycon Babe

Smollett does get sassy when the time is right. If the pose isn’t enough, then the teal ruched bodycon, peep-toe booties, metallic accessories should drive the point home.

Short & Sweet

The actress pulls off short shorts in the sweetest way possible, adorned with lace print with a pussybow blouse and cut-out platform oxfords. Just lovely!

Plum Perfection

It was girl gone glam for Smollett at the 63rd Primetime Emmy Awards last year in a deep-V plum gown and sparkling accessories, a similar look we saw at the Temptations premiere that suits her fabulously.

Natural Beauty

Smollett has a knack for selecting neutral hues that are simply stunning, and this silky wrap style with bejeweled neckline is definitely a favorite.

Sugar & Spice

Another soft-tone style we adore! This delicate frock and off-white strappy sandals was such a girly look at InStyle’s Summer Soiree in 2010.

Back To Black

Smollett is smoking in this strapless satin LBD with zipper details and platform pumps to top it off; all without trying too hard.
