This past Monday was The annual Met Costume Gala, which is held
at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The Met Gala is like the Oscars of Fashion,
with best dressed being the most prestigious award. Each year there is a
recognizable theme in which celebrities pair up with high-end designers, and
showcase beautiful their gowns. This year, the theme was Charles James: Beyond
Fashion, which had celebrities wearing gorgeous gowns that got to be showcased
on red-carpeted stairs.
I look forward to this event every year, to see what the theme
will be and how celebrities with dress for it, and there were so many gorgeous
looks this year.
My top 3 for best dressed are:
Allison Williams in Oscar de la Renta with Brian Atwood shoes and Fred Leighton Jewels. I said to look out for her, and she did not disappoint! This gorgeous coral gown with a long train was perfect, paired with a simple diamond necklace and studs, with her hair in a sleek bun. A natural smokey eye and nude lip finished the look beautifully.

Charlize Theron in Dior with Fred Leighton Jewels. A simple white dress with navy blue details and a gorgeous train, ups the glamour. Her hair blown to one side to show off a striking earring and smokey eye finish the look. And I love how she's wearing a simple black blazer just over her shoulders.
Reese Witherspoon in Stella McCartney. Retro glam with a modern twist, is how I would describe this look that is just gorgeous. The colour of dress with the cut is elegant and her hair swept to the side with a bright pink lip, it really pulls together the whole look.

Honourary Mentions:
Jessica Alba in Diane von Furstenberg dress and clutch, Brian Atwood shoes, Doves by Doron Paloma earrings and rings by Melissa Kaye and Ippolita. The gold tone of the dress is beautiful against Jessica's skin and looks elegant with a side-swept up-do, and smokey eye.

Sarah Jessica Parker in Oscar de la Renta with Fred Leighton Jewels. As co-chair of the Gala, this dress is not only perfection but looks incredible. Full ball down balanced with fitted top, paired with white gloves and a intricate up-do, is gorgeous and a look I firmly believe only SJP could pull off.

Kate Mara in Valentino. Another actress I said to look out for, and she looked stunning in a gold embroidered gown with sheer sleeved top with a cape-like train. Her short hair kept down and simply smokey eye finish an elegant look.

Couples:
Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield. Aren't they adorable? I love how Emma (in Thakoon) went with a bright pink cropped top and fuchsia bottom. It's young, fresh but still elegant with her hair in a side semi-messy braid. Rosy pink lips and cheeks compliment the outfit beautifully. And I love that Andrew's wearing a black and grey suit with a bow-tiw for a modern look.

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds both in Gucci. They looked like old-hollywood glamour, and with Blake's hair pulled back to one side with her dress in a pearly pink with a beautiful cape-like train, she looked gorgeous.
I look forward to this even every year, and this year didn't disappoint!! So many beautiful looks to go with the a great theme.
