Keyshia Cole takes the look up in a notch in a short black cocktail dress and Alexis Phifer does it well in navy sequins...
... Christina Milian and Amerie go for bright popsicle options in form fitting fabrics...
...and MJB showcases her delts in a sequined Emmauel Ungaro number...
...non plused, J.Lo, Michelle Williams, and Nicole Richie go floor length in evening gowns...
...in anything from pastel pink to metallic sheens.
