Were they giving out free Botox?

Madonna strikes a pose in taupe

Last night in the Big Apple, Mama Madonna hosted a star-studded fete sponsored by Gucci to benefit her charity, Raising Malawi, and UNICEF. Practically everybody is in town for Fashion Week, so there were a boatload of celebs that came out for a good cause. And I suppose when Madonna invites you somewhere, you accept. Let's take a look at just a few of the lucky celebs who scored an invite to her charity bash:

Katie Holmes stood out in sky-high heels and a red pencil dress.

Salma Hayek has her gorgeous figure back and wore the color of the moment, purple.

Rihanna made yet another fashionable appearance, this time in forest green Gucci.

J. Lo still knows how to serve it up on the red carpet, even though she's ready to pop.

Gwyneth went back to her good luck color, bubblegum pink (of course you remember her Oscar dress).

Alicia Keys went retro-glam in red with a waist-cinching belt.

Debbie Messing was happy in head to toe Gucci.

Drew opted for short and black with a splash of yellow.

Dita's pink and black frock was origami inspired.

"It" girl Amy Adams chose a regal royal blue.

Heidi was too cute in this bloussant mini with obligatory pockets.

Cassie was charmingly color-blocked with perfectly matched shoes.

Demi and Ashton = hot. That's all.

Gwen and Gavin make a dashing couple in black.

How to Dress Like the Perfect Couple

Ashton Kutcher has confirmed what Aunt Viv and I have known all along...the best accessory a woman can have is a well dressed man! In the current issue of Harper's Bazaar, Ashton has some great tips for getting your boo to look as put together as you do. Here are some gems:

"...guys don't like to be told they look nice, pretty, or cute or that they clean up well. We want to feel dirty, rugged, and, most important, that you feel safe when you are in our company. So when your guy finally tries on something that you like, tell him that he looks like James Bond or Tony Montana. Feel free to be even more vague than that: "Wow, that suit makes you look like that hot football player!" Or just ask him if he feels like he can still throw a punch in the outfit, just in case he needs to protect you. Trust me, say any of this and you won't be able to get him to take the damn suit off. Before you know it, he'll be wearing an Armani tux to league night at the bowling alley."

...

"You never want people to notice your accessories. When you walk into a room, heads should turn. The desired effect is for everyone to say or think that you look beautiful. If people comment on your shoes or bag, they're not appreciating the entire essence that is you. If you go to a museum and see a statue on a podium, you don't want people to say, "Wow, what a stunning podium. Where can I get one of those?" Your entire ensemble should be so captivating, so cohesive, that one particular thing can't be singled out. It supports you; you don't support it. In this same way, your man should not upstage you. He is there to highlight you."

...

"Men's clothes, for the most part, are simple, but looking like a stylish couple is in the details. When you go shopping for Lanvin flats to match your Marc Jacobs dress perfectly, swing by the men's store and pick him up a shirt, tie, vest, or sweater that works with your palette. Because if there's one thing that men hate more than getting dressed, it's going shopping...But make sure the look isn't too matchy-matchy; you don't want to seem like you planned it all out. Your best bet is to match the man gear to that great new Balenciaga bag that you're planning to carry. If your bag works with your outfit, so will he. Always make sure that your jewelry is in sync and that he is not more or less dressed up than you are."

Love it! So to break it down: men are accessories; if you want them to dress well, do the shopping for them; and when they actually do dress well, reward them by telling them they look like they could kick some ass. Check, check and check!
