The lovely ladies hit the red carpet at the awards gala in an array of cute minis!

Young Hollywood’s hottest young talents were out in full force Jan. 8 at the Palm Springs International Film Fastival Awards Gala, picking up some hardware for their amazing performances in 2010. A beaming Natalie Portman, trading in her standard Dior and Rodarte for Vionnet, led the parade of stars that included Amy Adams, Rashida Jones, Jennifer Lawrence and Carey Mulligan to name a few.

Carey looked prim and proper in her textured purple Prada cocktail dress while Jennifer went for big color and a print in her curve hugging Oscar de la Renta. Amy also provided a burst of color in her off the shoulder turquoise Narcisco Rodriguez and the forever youthful Helen Mirren went all out in her purple Zac Posen — complete with fishtail!

Also looking great was Rashida in a printed top from Stella McCartney’s 2011 Resort collection and black skirt.
