Michelle Obama, Elizabeth Banks wow at annual dinner Saturday night

First lady Michelle Obama was amidst a slew of A-list and gorgeous celebrities during the White House Correspondents Association Dinner this past Saturday night.

According to the Daily Mail, Obama kept up with all the latest trends by choosing a jewel-toned paisley organza dress by Naeem Khan. The colorful ball gown was a part of the designer's Fall/Winter 2011 Collection, but this beautiful strapless frock was a bit more understated than what traveled down the runway.

The first lady accompanied the look with jewel-studded hoop earrings and a cocktail ring to bring it all together, the news source reports.

Other stars who wowed at the event included Elizabeth Banks in a scarlet red Antonio Berardi gown with peplum skirt, big gold earrings and matching bracelet cuff and Kerry Washington in a coral long-sleeve Calvin Klein floor-length dress, Us Weekly reports.

Those who want to emulate the style of their favorite A-list celebrity or the first lady can get similar looks for less by purchasing fashion jewelry such as the 14k Gold-Plated DiamonUltra Cubic Zirconia Garland Hoop Pierced Earrings.
