Octavia Spencer has us green with envy!

The Help actress hit up Elle's Women in Hollywood event in Beverly Hills last night sparkling brighter than an emerald.

For the second event in a row, Octavia wore another Tadashi Shoji creation.

We love the color, but it looks like she could have used a lift in the tata department.

Other than that, Octavia looked great!

Octavia Spencer looked like her fabulous self last night at the 3rd annual amfAR Inspiration Gala in El Lay.

The Help star walk the black carpet at Milk Studios wearing a brocade peplum top and matching skirt by her favorite designer Tadashi Shoji.

Black peep toe heels, a velvet clutch and lots of sparkling and colorful jewels provided the finishing touches.

So beautiful!

Octavia Spencer is getting in the writing books game.

And she's specifically targeting middle schoolers - those lucky ducks.

The actor from The Help has a deal in place with Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers to write not one but a couple of detective books that are aimed for the middle school audience.

We can't help but love Aaron Paul because of awesomeness in Breaking Bad, so we probably can't help but go see this indie flick when it comes out.

Our most favoritest and seksiest drug dealer stars opposite Mary Elizabeth Winstead as a married couple who was brought together by their mutual love for alcohol and partying. After Mz. Winstead gets a little too wild one night and smokes on some crack rocks, however, she decides to sober up.

Can their relationship survive?

Watch the trailer for the Sundance Film Festival hit (above) and keep an eye out for the rest of the talented cast like Academy Award winner Octavia Spencer, Parks and Rec star Nick Offerman and Megan Mullally!

It's official.

Octavia Spencer no longer holds the record for "Most Amount of Spanx" worn in one night.

The Help actress has been dethroned by the one and only Adele who wore four, count 'em FOUR, pairs of the body smoothing shapewear to the Grammys this year.

The six-time Grammy winner revealed to Matt Lauer:

"I had three or four pairs of Spanx on that night but I loved it. I actually had another dress made and I ended up passed out in it. It had a corset and I was like, 'I can't wear that,' so I ended up wearing this instead."

And that's why we love you, gurl! Keepin' it real!

Ch-ch-check her out (above)!

So sweet!

And so well-deserved!

Harry Potter for life!

Great news!!!

Brides-to-be who loved Octavia Spencer's lavender Golden Globes gown will soon be able to say "I do" wearing a version of the red carpet beauty!!

Tadashi Shoji, the designer who created the custom-made dress worn by The Help star, says he was inspired to add the piece dubbed the Octavia to his new bridal collection after receiving praise for the original.

He says:

“I decided to make the ‘Octavia’ gown in ivory for our new bridal collection after the positive response. I love the way the soft draping envelops the figure while the jewel embellishment adds sparkle for a bride’s big day.”

And so do we!!!

It was definitely one of favorite dresses worn during awards season!

Brides who have their eyes set on Octavia should plan on waiting, because the dress won't be available until spring of 2013.

Sadsies!
