Eva Longoria rocks a $35 orange minidress

Is it just me, or has the "Desperate Housewives" star been upping her fashion game lately?

We already knew about her appetite for bright, saturated colors. We loved the plum-and-crimson Victoria Beckham dress she wore in DC back in June, for example. Now she's keeping the monochromatic vibe alive with the "egg shaped" $35 ASOS sheath she just wore to the Microsoft Imagine Cup Worldwide Finals. Not only does the color work for her, but the mid-thigh cut makes her legs look as long as possible. Eva is tiny—about five feet tall with a pumped up ponytail! We love that she kept her look streamlined (no jewelry) and the fact that, with all the money she saved on her mod frock, she invested in a pair of Brian Atwood platform pumps to match.
