Diddy galloped his way on the carpet in this tailored grey and black look with a bowtie.  The man can dress.  And if he's serious about his girlfriend Cassie's "singing career", wouldn't these types of events--or at least en event this weekend--be the perfect time to bring her around for networking & performances?  Oh wells...

And Elle Varner ricked one of her best looks of the weekend--a button down long sleeved red dress paired with dark red lipstick.  Sexy yet still bright enough for her love of color and prints.
