One of the biggest nights in Fashion was held last night, and the attendees certainly didn't disappoint! The Annual Met Costume Institute Ball/Gala, which kicks off the summer Costume Institute Exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, was hosted by Anna Wintour, Justin Timberlake {!?!} and main donor of the exhibit, Marc Jacobs. The new exhibit is titled "Model as Muse" which I find interesting, not only because I'm curious to see what it all really means, but because the s.a.d.a. Annual Fashion Show theme for '08 was "Muse." There were some interesting looks, some smashing hits, and some even worse misses. I love Anne Hathaway, and though it almost doesn't look like her in the photo to the left, I think she looks stunning. Leighton Meester took one of the biggest risks, in my opinion, and I think it paid off--something no one is used to seeing her in, so different than anything Blair Waldor would wear! Newcomers to the event, Katy Perry & Emma Roberts both made fairly strong showings in their looks--not too shabby for their first Met Ball. I thought the Olsen Twins also looked pretty good, Ashley went chic-sophisticate, while MK went for a more twisted-glam look. Chanel Iman's Zac Posen animal print gown was amazing, as was Heidi Klum's J. Mendel maternity/ball gown. I got these images from Style.com, which sadly didn't have any pics of Rhianna's gender-bending D&G suit, but I'm on the look out for more, so keep your eyes on this blog for a follow-up post! Hopefully one day, I will be attending this fabulous night of Fashion!
My favs:
and my pick for most obviously worst dressed:
Madonna
I am a big fan of the website Stumble Upon. Its a great way to waste time when you're online, or in need of a new website to browse. You fill in your likes, and every time you clike "Stumble Upon" it takes you to a new site filled with things you're interested in. While playing around with it the other day, it took me to the website of Trish South Management, which was *filled* to the brim with amazing photography of all the talent they manage. They have a lot of fashion images, as well as landscapes, portraits, advertising, and more. I will be featuring a lot of photography from this site in the future, especially when I need some new inspiration, but for today I chose this collection of photos by Kayt Jones. I love the tonal quality, and earthy undertones of the images. Take a look around the website, there's some really amazing images!
I recently joined stylecaster.com, and have become quickly infatuated with it. Its like a myspace, for fashionistas :) So, needless to say I was pretty excited when my virtual closet was chosen as a featured one today. If you have any interest in fashion, I totally recommend joining this site...and then adding me as a "style influencer," and I'll gladly do the same :)
