Best Dressed at Met Costume Gala 2011

So I know that I already did my last post before I leave, but I just couldn't help myself from posting my favorites pics from last night's Met Gala. Swoon. The ladies looked lovely and I thought there were only a few WTFs.

I also wanted to thank everyone again for all your love and support about the wedding! It's been incredible and I really appreciate each email, text, FB message and tweet!

I loved the ladies in gold (or nude, whatevs)!! SJP and Blake Lively rarely ever look bad, they know how to do a red carpet event right everytime. Little Hailee Steinfeld is on her way too. I know Iman is a little out there and may not be on everyone's best dressed list, but I think she killed it in that outfit. It makes me think that's how a superhero would dress for a night on the town.

Red hot ladies! What sealed the deal with me with the Mary-Kate is her beachy hair. I love. The Glee ladies looked lovely as well.

Brooklyn looks divine in this color. Her hair is really growing on me!

Ok, for reals ladies. How old-school glamour does Florence look?? I love it.

People Magazine's 10 Best Dressed

People Magazine came out with their 10 Best Dressed for this year. Here's the list:

-Jennifer Aniston

-Rihanna

-Jessica Alba

-Lea Michele

-Zoe Saldana

-Gwen Stefani

-Kate Middleton

-Rachel Bilson

-Olivia Palermo

-Diane Kruger

Do you agree? For the most part I do, I don't think that Jennifer Aniston should be on there- she so boring and she had a lot of so-so moments this year, Rihanna would be on my list for last year, but I feel that this year she's in a weird transition period for her style. Gwen Stefani does always look fabulous, but I don't know many people who copy her style because it's not something most everyday women can pull off. Kate Middleton- she's Prince William's boo if you don't recognize her name. I wouldn't list her just because most people don't really know who she is.


Here's my updated 10 Best Dressed for 2010 to replace those four, but keeping the remaining six:



-Blake Lively: She always looks fabulous and sexy!
-Cameron Diaz: This year's Oscar dresses blew me away! Plus her everyday style is gorgeous.
-Dakota Fanning: Love her red carpet choices and she always dresses her age.
-Lady Gaga: Would I wear everything she does? Hell no. Do most everyday women wear what she wears? Hell no. But is she not afraid to be who she is and uses fashion to make a statement? Hell yes and that's why she's on my list.

Who's on your list? What do you think of People's 10 Best Dressed?

High-Low Hems Coming Back?

My favorite dress I wore to a dance in highschool was for my senior Homecoming, it was a halter neckline and a high-low hem (I wore a few other dresses with the same hemline as well) that was a mixed blue and black print with glitter tiger stripes (our mascot was a tiger so I thought it was fitting). That sounds SO ugly now, but in 2001 it was super hip. High-low hems were in style another year, but I haven't seen them since.


Then low and behold, in one week two Hollywood hotties busted them out for the red carpet:





January Jones was one of my Best Dressed at the Emmys, in fact her dress was in my top 5. Last night, Jessica Alba wore a high-low hem to the Venice Film Festival premiere of Machete. 


I have a feeling that the high-low hems are going to be popping up everywhere! I think it's definitely a way to mix it up and you get the benefits of both a mini dress and a long one. This hemline may even be considered more versatile because it can work for both cocktail and formal attire. I'm not sure how I feel about them though since I've worn the trend before.


Do you ever feel that once you've worn a style, it's a little weird to where it again a few years later?


It's kind of like a mullet, except it's party in the front and business in the back.

What's your thoughts?? Will you bust out your old party dresses? Are you going to hunt for a high-low hemline for the fall?
