Kate Walsh: It’s a Red Tie Affair!
Kate Walsh wows in Hervé Leroux at The American Red Cross of Santa Monica’s “Red Tie Affair” fundraiser gala held at Fairmont Miramar Hotel in Santa Monica on Saturday.
The 40-year-old Private Practice star wore an element of red in her attire (a red cross), which signifies her support for the American Red Cross and for the thousands of individuals helped by the local Red Cross every day.
Gourmet dinners were designed by celebrity chef Nick Stellino. The gala honored the humanitarian spirit of those who have shown courage, unselfish character, and have saved lives.

Amazing!
you can see a little bit of her nipple… LOL
Thank you so much Jared!
Kate looks gorgeous! I love the dress, it is very simple and elegant. Love that she supports a good cause.
desiree could be, coulbe a small shadow of her chest being pressed by her dress, whatever
Shes just so damn awesome. =]
She looks fabulous!
Kate=Love
Thanks JJ.
She does not dress appropriately for a 40-year old woman. Stacey and Clinton from What Not to Wear would disapprove.
#12 The dress she is wearing is totally elegant. It is long and not showing anything inappropriate. It is unfortunate that you weigh 400 lbs and can not fit into a dress as lovely as Kate can but that my dear is not her problem.
Kate is stunning. The dress, hair, jewelry is perfect.
Thanks.
:)
She’s really pretty but that one close up picture of her is kind of scary for some reason. haha
Looks gorgeous.
And about the age thing- Kate doesn’t even look 40, well at least nothing like all the 40 year olds I know! She looks way younger and can totally pull off about anything, including this dress, and she looks amazing and appropriate!
woooow! She looks gorgeous!
Thanks JJ!
lola…tell us how you really feel.
she looks great. i hope i look that good in 20 years.
Awwww #12 decided to show her holiday (St. Patrick’s Day for USA anyways) “green” with envy thru her post. That doesnt count silly, you will still get pinched. Ouch.
Can someone tell me does her dress look grey-ish, blue-ish, or purple-ish? I cant decide on the color.
loverlyyyy :)
not my favorite dress, but the lilac is a pretty colour and brings out her eyes. thank you jared!
wow kate fans are mean.
She looks funny in the close ups, like her smile is scary but m\aybe its the angle, hopefully it is.
Probably the most age appropriate thing i have seen her wear actually.
she looks awesome as a 40 year old. great grey dress, simple and sleek
Pretty!
very nice! Love you kate!
I think she looks absolutely gorgeous. And the dress suits her pretty well. Still.. I miss the red hair
Gorgeous woman. Not my favorite dress though, I must admit.
To the age appropriate thing: She’s 40, not 70. She dresses like everyone else, IMO. You never see too much or whatever it is that inspired this conversation. She’s always very elegant and stylish. My mom’s turning 40 this week and she dresses the same.
I want to look like her when I turn 40 in 20 years, guys. She’s beautiful, and I love her style.
Thanks for the pics Jared.
Thank you JJ.
Now this is the way to wake up on a Monday. When Kate smiles you just have to smile back. She look so happy. The dress is great, and she is looking fan-freaking-tastic.
It’s age appropriate if you can pull it off. I find it terrible annoying that women that have the figure, and the face to carry something really nice go around all frumpy, and boring just because the calendar and some idiots with no taste tell then they should. Find it more disturbing to see minors dressed like streetwalkers, than a beautiful adult woman in a beautiful dress, When is comes to adults there is no such thing as age appropriate, but body, and face appropriate. Kate is looking so damn good that the comment is really laughable.
Kate looks amazing! I love the dress! Thanks for the pictures!
#27 S. WORD! Great post.
The Walsh always supports a good cause. She is amazing!
Thank you JJ.
Kate looks stunning. Thanks for the photos Jared.
Apparently during the auction Kate bid for a lunch date with Santa Monica firefighters !! I hope she won it.
Love the pics. Kate is so very beautiful. Love the fact she always supports a good cause.
Jared - have you found any pics of Kate & Sara Ramirez together at the event ? I’ve only seen one.
UGH! She’s ugly! Plastic surgery…. Plastic surgery……
same as LOLA!
Kate looks stunning.
I wish she would go back to red hair again. That’s the kind of dress I like simple, elegant and classy, perfect for her.
thank for the pics JJ
Yeah this is what today’s 40 looks like so you all better get cracking. Older women know how to dress better than younger women. this dress is perfection IMO. ELEGANT!!! not ******. The color could have been more wow but anyway, she rarely misses fashion wise. she’s like Charlize Theron in that way.
Kate is a hot woman. SEXY! SEXY! I would prefer her to wear alot lot less and be in my bed.
When you turn your car on does it return the favor? Everytime I am thinking of you, Kate.
THANK YOU JJ!!! gosh, Kate is a goddess on earth.
fangirling much. <3
She looks beautiful! So classy. Her hair looks less red here than it did in the sunlight in her last pics. This style is very flattering on her.
Sometimes I think people equal 40 to 80. Women are still having children at 40. They are not old.
Kate is a natural gorgeous stunning woman. I love her look here. The dress is sleek, simple, and well fitted not overpowering. Kate does not need a costume dress only women who are not naturally stunning and gorgeous should wear them so the dress with overpower their plain looks. On a gorgeous and stunning woman like Kate, simple is the way to go.
The cute posters who were questioning my comment in the last thread about the “baby announcement in June.” It is a iobservation. I was right about Angelina Jolie before the obvious baby bump.
Naturally beautiful. Gorgeous lady.
Thanks Jared :)
Most beautiful women on Greys hands down.
I agree with Yeah ! Kate rarely puts a foot wrong fashion-wise & she’s got a great figure & most beautiful face (those eyes, bone structure & hair). With the talent to back it up as evidenced by promotion to her own show. Envious much ;)
Well, it appears that whoever it was (I refuse to take the time to go back that far) that thinks the dress isn’t age appropriate is all alone. I’m 48, and I teach college and am around 20 year olds all the time, so I can tell you that if you never see her rear end or her stomach, she’s not dressing like a 20 year old. Kate’s obviously not worried about her age and not desperately trying to shave years off. I think she has a better grasp of who she is than just about anyone else in Hollywood that you could think of.
GOSH , THIS WOMAN IS SO BEAUTIFUL!
THANKS JJ!
SHE LOOKS A LOT BETTER THAN 20 YEAR OLDS COULD DREAM OF.
Please stop being hypocrite, she makes her age, nowadays, a lot of 40 years old women look like that, they take care of her more than before, they wore more sexy clothes, they are in good shape.
A lot of actresses look great at 40: Debra Messing, Hally Berry, Vanessa Marcil ,Jodie Foster, Julia Roberts and personally I find them more beautiful than Kate Walsh (ps: I’m not saying that Kate is not beautiful)…
IM NOT BEING HYPOCRITE, IM SAYING WHAT I SEE.
AND SORRY #45 BUT SO MANY PEOPLE CANT BE WRONG ABT IT.
WHEN TALKING ABT BEAUTY AND LOOKING GREAT AT 40 SHE KICKS BUTTS!
#45 Your does not even make sense. Do you know what the definition of a hypocrite is? Noone is being a hypocrite here.
Anyone who thinks she dresses inappropriately for her age either is a 12-yr old who views anyone over 25 as ancient, or seriously needs their eyes tested !!
She is a beautiful, classy, funny, elegant, down-to-earth woman.
Thanks Jared x
I meant “your post does not make sense”.
Sorry reading people’s poor unintelligent posts are rubbing off on my own posts.
Kate is so pretty. I love the dress. You can’t really see it in these pics, but it has a train. See http://kate.galerie.free.fr/cpg133/thumbnails.php?album=300
why does her boobs looks small sometimes and big sometimes?
anyway she looks great for 40
Kate looks so amazing.
She is gorgeous. The hair, dress, everything.
Love her so much. Thanks for the pics x
Kate is a beatiful person inside and out. She is a natural beauty, but the thing that makes Kate so special and stand out from others is her amazing personality. She is a woman who is full of life who always looks happy, content, and relaxed. Kate could wear a garbage bag and still be drop dead gorgeous.
I am a young adult and I would love to look like Kate. When I am her age, I hope I am as beautiful as she is inside and out.
yeah she looks good, but her smile is weird…
Hi #51 - It’s the style of dress. This designer is known for his uplifting bustlines. Kate looks great in it.
Looking forward to seeing the pics with her red hair again though !
This woman is gorgeousness personified.
She certainly returns the favor !
Yuck. She looks like a man.
I love Kate’s dress. She looks incredible. She is always stunning and gorgeous.
Thanks for all the pics Jared.
she looks sooo pretty. i love her.
she is the best ever!
thanks jj.
i hope we get some kalex pics.
I’m not jealous. I’m 22, 5 ft 2″, weigh 105 and live in Canada. I was recently watching CBC’s “Steven and Chris” segment about age-appropriate dressing and Kate doesn’t seem to get it.
Nothing against her though. I don’t watch any of her shows or know anything about her. That’s just what I believe.
Canada and fashion tips in the same sentence. Am I the only one that is laughing?
What it’s really sad it’s that it’s not even your own opinion but something you heard on, of all places, TV.
No wonder Canada has never produce a truly stylish woman since Margaret Trudeau was a fixture at Studio 54 in the late 70’s.
I thought she looked good until I saw the close-up. She has long ass teeth, way shiny face and her eyes and smile are weird to me. She looks good from far away though.
I love this woman, but I have to agree these are not her best pics!
Still, great dress!
Miss the red hair
Kate looks beautiful. I think this is my favorite dress of her’s to date. I’m really not following the whole age inappropriate thing. I think Kate looks fantastic and elegant, but to each his own. I think her smile is beautiful and genuine.
And, Jolie, I hope you’re right :)!
S. you are not the only one laughing, Im laughing my ass off. Not because of Canada and fashion but because the he/she got it off TV and it is not his/her opinion. Wow.
Thanks for coming back though, I had a great laugh.
#60 The only skin she is showing is her arms and very little bit of her chest. I really do not understand what is “unappropriate”. I dont see Kate’s va-jay-jay, her boobs falling out, her stomach showing, or her ass.
The only thing “unappropriate” is your comment.
poor sad haters! leave kate along she looks awesome!
U r just bitter cause never in ur better dreams u could look as good as her.
LOSERS!
I didn’t really like the dress, def not on my list of fav Kate dresses, but she still looks amazing.
Thanks JJ!
I was at the event and saw her… The dress looks a lot better in person… its really more of a purple color…
#69 Rachel, did you get to meet Kate? Thanks.
kate is not pregnant.look at the picture of kate and sarah ramirez(you can see it on the last pics,someone posted it),she has a glass of wine almost empty in front of her.pregnant women do not drink alcohol.
#71 You cant tell by that, there is wine glasses all over those tables. Does not mean Kate drank it, and just because there is a wine glass does not mean there is wine in it. You can put any kind of drink in a wine glass, does not have to be wine.
Kate basically wins at life.
I love this woman. She is my favorite actress & so pretty.
#71, I don’t think Kate is pregnant either, but I wouldn’t rule the possibility out because of the wine. It is actually beneficial to drink a small amount of wine during pregnancy.
awww i would love if she was. But i really doubt it
:(
#70 Jamie-
No, I was a youth volunteer at the event so I was not allowed to meet her unless she would have come up to me and started talking to me but she talked to youth volunteers when we were all in the hallway because she left early so I guess you can say she indirectly talked to me! lol…
And about the whole pregnant thing people, she looks really thin in person and I don’t know if these pictures lead you guys on to thinking she is pregnant but she was really thin… no bump or nothing… What makes you guys think she is pregnant?
Wow, lucky you Rachel. At least you were in the same room as Kate !
I don’t think she is pregnant, but there have been a few articles in the French media - they seem to publish an article every month saying she’s pregnant !! But she’s a newlywed who is hot property, so it is inevitable I suppose.
She always looks very slim & toned to me & I doubt she would get pregnant with her show Private Practice being so new.
WoooW Rachel you are a lucky girl!!!
I would kill to be that close to Kate;
i dont think she is pregnant for the same reason as #78 KitKat, is not a good time for the show; maybe later; but not hjust yet.
what Kate feels about sex on camra http://www.tvguide.com/cover-story/sex-tv-inside/080319-03 the last part is about her :)
Of course, creating a sexy scene is work. “It’s a commitment,” says Kate Walsh, a star of both those shows. “If [an actor] is going to put his hand on my thigh and lift my skirt, we don’t want to just go through the motions. We want the camera to go in tight and not lose the whole thing.”
Thank You so much Rachel for coming back and replying. It is great you got to see her, even though you didnt get to speak to her.
As for the people commenting, about her “not getting pregnant because of PrP being a new show”, Im sorry but I find that offensive. Actresses get pregnant all the time and still do TV shows, they can work it in the script or cover it up on screen. If you have been actually watching Private Practice, you will see that they have been preparing the possibility of a Kate pregnancy, now that Addie has a little hope of getting pregnant and the fact that she wants one. Kate is 40 yrs old, she cant wait forever, the time is ticking, she has said before her and Alex wanted a family. Actually Kate being pregnant, would be wonderful for PrP, and Addison having a baby storyline would be perfect for PrP and good for its ratings.
Thank You Swedish :D
#61 S. I completely agree with you that Kate looks amazing and that the dress is age-appropriate, but you don’t have to bring up how “fashion tips” and “Canada” should not be in the same sentence. It’s not necessary.
Where is Kate!?? im missing her so much!!!
I need new pics JJ!!! more kate please!
Addison (Kate Walsh). ”There are a couple of surgeries only she can perform,” says Rhimes, ”and there are a lot of relationships only she has. It’s going to be a very significant visit for a lot of the characters — particularly Addison.” And we’ve saved the best for last:.

Kate is one busy lady if she’s in that movie !! She shoots her Greys episode this week, then the movie starts end March in New Mexico to end May when she starts back shooting PP.
But hey, new PP & a Kate movie. What’s not to love !
#84 jessica, you are right, It was uncalled for.
Now for the serious issue at hand that is troubling us Kate Walsh fans:
-Kate should be shooting this week. What is the color of her hair this week?
JJ help us.
#60, i always say, if u’ve got it, flaunt it. u obviously dont
PLEASE MORE PICTURES SOON JJ!
Is Kate’s hair back to red yet ? I’m assuming she’s back on the Greys set this week.
LOL, that is the million dollar question: Is Kate’s hair back to red?
Im dying to know as well.
Jamie, you’re dying to know? Let’s hope Kate is dyeing as well.
#100 Karen, that is clever. LOL
JJ help us out we need to know if Addison is still a red head.
LOL Karen, that was great!
I really really need to know .
Something that will amuse you all

Kae’s little comment? LOL.
Sorry about the double post people, and the misspelling of Kate’s name. Am currently flogging myself for that.
If you are in the area, you might want to catch Kate at Lafayette on March 28th, at an Obama campaign event
http://www.lafayette.dreamhosters.com/?p=68
She sure keeps busy.
Thanks for the links, S. That video was awsome! Kate is going to be in my state on Friday!!! And Easton (where Lafayette is located) is not very far from where I live!
thanks for the video!!
She’s so cute when she’s laughing, but I didn’t understand very well! What did she say??
she said “this is what a feminist looks like” and then she also said, “I can say that I’m one feminist who has good sex”
lol!!
hah.. Love the video
S. thank you!
kate is still a brunette.you can see it on the french site(katewalsh-web I think).I hoped she’d have been back to red for grey’s but maybe they didn’t shoot it yet.my english sucks,I’m sorry I’m doing my best,I’m french and I study spanish,I don’t have time for it.
I’m french too céline and you are not bad, I understood you.
NEW PICTURES http://kate.galerie.free.fr/cpg133/thumbnails.php?album=311
Thanks everyone!
Jared can you post the pics, please?
Celine, she has already filmed her GA episode and your English is just fine.
heeheee kate’s so cute in the feminist vid “i’m one feminist who has great sex *giggles*” i love christine lahti too, she’s so funny how she was like “we dont have hairy legs! *looks at legs* oh..well…anyway…”
my mum always uses the word ‘feminist’ as an insult. she’d be like “ugh, ur such a feminist!”
