While every girl, woman, and lady was garbed in something sparkly or shiny at the 2010 MTV Movie Awards, Twilight’s Nikki Reed was brave enough to wear a classic looking printed day dress.

Again, let’s hand it to her for being fearless. Because despite the dress being a Miu Miu, it is still a day dress; and unfortunately not red carpet worthy…(Nikki, I’m sorry dear).
Events like the MTV Movie Awards call for dressier, sexier, and edgier pieces. Had I been there to give Nikki some styling tips, I’d have asked her to wear this Missoni piece:

The Missoni would have rocked her curves and flattered her squarish face. Tsk, tsk, tsk, too bad I wasn’t there.
Going back to her Miu Miu dress, it’s actually not a bad looking item. In fact, it’s a very attractive and summer appropriate piece. Nikki just made the mistake of wearing it to the wrong occasion.
The dress will definitely look great with flats or sandals; it can also be dressed up with a jacket if the occasion calls for it. Here is a similar looking piece in case you want one:
