What They Wore at the 2013 Met Gala.

The red carpet fashion show which is the Met Gala was just the other night, and it has a lot of people talking (thank you, Kim Kardashian.) This years theme was Punk: Chaos to Couture. Not many people seemed to follow this theme, but the ones that did, pretty much lost their minds (thank you, Madonna.) Besides a few fashion misses, there were plenty of beautiful gowns and looks of the night. Let's discuss.

Some of my favorites looks were:
Solange rocking that big ass afro in a blue printed Kenzo gown. She. Looks. Great. As usual. Her and Beyonce's styles are so different, but I totally relate to hers more. Katy Perry looking like straight up D&G royalty. She was recently spotted at Coachella wearing an adorable Dolce & Gabbana two piece. Their clothes definitely work for her. And now I want a crown :(
Anne Hathaway, who looked AMAZING to say the least. Super surprised, because she usually doesn't wow me, but her hair makes her look so chic and the Valentino dress is gorgeous. I am not mad. In other hair news, Nicole Richie definitely took it there sporting what looks like bright grey hair. Whatever it is, I like it. It complements her skin tone. Sara Jessica looks perfect as usual and Lena Dunham also looks great, even though her dress is really no big deal.

Oh, and the Olsen twins can almost do no wrong in my eyes. They don't ask permission, they just do.

What I didn't love:
Kim Kardashian, duh. (Full post on her below.) Madonna in Givenchy on some dominatrix type stuff. She looks fierce, but I don't think that look is a winner. I guess she wanted to embrace the punk theme, but still, she looks out of place. Beyonce also in Givenchy....I just didn't like it. The print seems a little gaudy, the matching gloves are a miss, the belt, the shoes, the style of dress... I just don't like it much. And Nicki Minaj looked like a hip hop vampire.

In other random news:
Looks like Pharrell wore eye liner. Hmm.

Take a look at the pics below.
What do you think? Who do YOU love and what can you do without?

Let a sista know.

Let's get nice and sporty for Spring. Top Shop is serving up so many adorable things that it's ridiculous. Here are 10 items, all currently at Topshop.com, for your shopping enjoyment.

I think the sporty look is going to be fabulous for Spring. You can pair these things with sneaker wedges,  pumps with socks, jeweled sandals, and really all types of things. If you don't want to look ultra sporty, nix the sneaker wedges and try strappy sandals or pumps (without socks).

Rising Trend: Oxblood

Oxblood you say? Why would I want to wear something called "oxblood"? Ok, I admit, the color oxblood does not sound flattering at all, but it can be quite elegant. A great color to accent oxblood with is blue, as you can see Miroslava Duma wearing above. It adds a feminine touch to oxblood and a certain richness.

Me Gusta.
