What a tough life that Kristen Stewart leads: Another day in southern France, another night with Robert Pattinson, another Balenciaga outfit to wear.

We pity her. We really do.

Now, the Twilight star usually has two red carpet looks—boyish and miserable, or mini-skirted and miserable.

But hold up, what's this? A pale pink, floor-length embroidered gown and a half grin? Wait a second, are we sure this is K.Stew?

Yep, that's R.Pattz's girl all right, promoting her upcoming On the Road movie at Cannes in a Balenciaga by Nicolas Ghesquière gown.

The 22-year-old knew what she was doing in the accessories department! By leaving her hair down and going minimal on the jewelry—small pendant necklace, skinny bracelet—she narrowly avoided overdoing it. When you're wearing 5-plus-feet of green, silver and black embroidery, you're already accessorized from neck to toe, after all.

But in case you can't tell, our jury is still out on whether this look completely works. K.Stew is gorgeous, the dress is magnificent and yet we can't help but get a nagging feeling that something is...off. Help us out in the comments below.
