Natalie Portman - Spirit Awards 2011

Just Jared has been part of the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Force this Oscar weekend. We just came from the 2011 Film Independent Spirit Awards, spotting the best celebrity style on Saturday (February 26).

Natalie Portman showed off her growing baby bump at California’s Santa Monica Beach.

The 29-year-old Black Swan star is nominated for Best Female Lead at the award show hosted by Joel McHale.

On the carpet, Natalie was asked if she ever anticipated her film’s huge success.

“No, not in a million years,” she said. “It’s been an amazing experience to have an audience who’s so passionate about the movie.”

FYI: Natalie is wearing a Givenchy dress and bag with Stella McCartney shoes and a Cartier ring.
