Mischa Barton looked frilly, girlie, and fabulous on the green-grass carpet at the A Time for Heroes celebrity carnival. The fun-filled event supports the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation. With caught up with a very dressed-up Barton (a sequined Chanel purse and Louboutins for a hot afternoon at the fair!?!?) and chatted about her upcoming flick, fashion, must-haves, and more!

What brings you here today?
It’s a great event and you get to hang out with the kids and do one-on-one stuff.

Are you working a booth at the carnival?
I think I’m going to do more than one booth hopefully. I think I’m starting over in the Barbie petting zoo! We’ll see.

Tell me about your upcoming movie.
The Assassination of a High School President. It comes out September 12. I’m really excited about it. It’s a dark, quirky comedy with a film noir tone to it. I play Francesca Piazza. She’s sort of the femme fatale character in the high school. And Bruce Willis play the principal, and he’s really funny in it.

With a film noir, femme-fatale kind of theme, did you get to wear anything fabulous?
It’s Catholic school uniforms.

Are you working on anything else now?
Yeah, I’ll probably start filming a film in August.

Besides work, what are your summer plans?
Just hanging out actually. I haven’t been home here much. I’ve been living in Paris, so I’ll probably go back to Paris soon.

Any summer beauty tips that you swear by?
Oh, I’m awful with this question. Wear sunscreen.

Your summer fashion must-haves …
I don’t know. I’m just doing my usual thing. I’ve been doing tons of vintage shopping. My must haves are high-waisted shorts and blouses and I’m looking for more sundresses and sandals always.
