Natalie Portmans charitable efforts were being praised this weekend, but were applauding her red carpet style.

The Oscar-winning actress hit all the right notes in the Grecian inspired dress this weekend, which she wore to the Childrens Hospital Los Angeles Gala: Noche de Ninos at LA Live.

Natalie, 33, who was one of the honourees, was joined on the red carpet by her husband Benjamin Millepied.
