Before diving into Anna Kendrick’s fashion highlights, let’s take a moment to revisit her iconic role in the Twilight Saga, where she left a memorable impression as Jessica Stanley.
Anna Kendrick’s Role as Jessica Stanley in the Twilight Saga
Appearing as Jessica Stanley in “Twilight,” “The Twilight Saga: New Moon,” “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse,” and “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1,” she portrays a friend of Bella’s at Forks High School.
The first film in The Twilight Saga is considered one of Anna Kendrick’s best movies.

At the 66th Directors Guild of America Awards, the 28-year-old actress and singer looked radiant in a vibrant turquoise Monique Lhuillier Resort 2014 dress, bringing a pop of color to the black carpet.

The Mr. Right actress kept her accessories minimal, choosing only a matching pair of earrings and a necklace to accompany the dress.
Anna completed her look with a bold pair of Christian Louboutin “Estanodo” booties. While a pair of strappy sandals might have complemented the outfit even better, these booties are stunning on their own.
