MET BALL 2013 - IT'S ALL BLACK AND WHITE

Another big trend of the night was black and white - two tone dressing and it was glamorous all the way. These looks are worthy of any red carpet!

Strikingly beautiful and utterly flawless Blake Lively dazzled in her highly detailed two tone creation.

 

Gwen Stefani looked somewhat familiar in her midriff baring black and white ensemble with it's bodice looking like a beautiful gift all wrapped up.

 

 

Leelee Sobieski has such a presence about her and she does not fail to deliver yet again in this marvelously simple gown brought to life by the sheer detailed sleeves. She is always effortlessly beautiful and dramatic.

 

 

Enjoy!

MET BALL 2013 - THE NOT SO NICE SIDE OF PUNK

Let's face it, punk in it's truest form is jarring, trashy, non conformist, anti social and mostly just plain ugly so perhaps this next group of ladies were the ones who really got the theme of the night right.... so here it is in all it's ugly glory!!

 

Sarah Jessica Parker looked like the queen of crazy punkdom. With a mohawke crown, black tulle, tartan boots and abstract printed gown she is all of the above. I actually love the gown on it's own but can someone please tell Ms. Parker no-one ever wants to see her lace panties again!!!

One of the few to rival S.J.P's attention grabbing eyesore was Madonna... yep... need we say more??

MET BALL 2013 - GLAMOROUS PUNKS!

There were a few daring ladies who really embraced the punk theme of this years ball opting for darker moody looks.

At the top of my list was Anne Hathaway. Giving us a glam punk look with her newly bleached locks and peek a boo black gown with feather details I can see Anne behind a mic being a glamorous anarchist.

 

Fishnet and punk has always gone hand in hand. Miley Cyrus embraced the theme with her piercing spiked hair do and slinky gown giving us another glam take on punk.

 

 

Rosie Huntington Whiteley took my break away in this moody, slinky gown. The fluidity of the skirt and the feathers evokes images of the decadent 1920's. Then there's that fishnet bodice - just glorious!!

 



 

Enjoy!

MET BALL 2013 - WHITE HOT TREND

It's been a while girls and boys but the call of the 2013 MET Ball was all too much so let's get down to business. With a "punk" theme this year I had high hopes for some very intriguing looks but for the most part it seems "couture punk" is quite demure. Who would have guessed right? Having said that, there were still some great looks to behold... here are some...

White hot was the biggest trend of the night. The quietly beautiful Rooney Mara (who also co-chaired the event) stepped out in a divine Givenchy creation. Her naturally pale skin, signature deep lip and the zippers add edge to this look. One of my faves of the night this girl hardly ever gets it wrong!

 

 Nicole Richie followed the trend in head to toe white, literally! I love the cheek of the white hair with the otherwise demure column gown. Not punk per say but definitely a head turner, Nicole rocks!

 

 

Olivia Wilde rocked in a beautiful strapless column white gown with dangerous cutouts and a belt detail. The dress hugs her figure superbly I just wished she amped up her makeup with a bold lip or dark mysterious eye.

 

 

Sienna Miller followed suit with her simple white gown choosing to throw her hair over to one side a la "90"s punk rock style. This girl knows her punk, adding a spiked headband and heavily spiked leather jacket she looks like she's having a whole lotta fun!

 

 

Katie Holmes was a vision in white. There was a subtlety to her look with a ripped detail on her train, khol rimmed eyes and a pompadour.

 

 

 

Enjoy!
