Remember how I said I was getting out in front of the trends this year (all the trends – so look out color blocking, I’m coming for you!)? Well, I wasn’t joshing you (“joshing you,” alongside “barf” and “do me a solid” is an amusing expression that I feel has lapsed in society and so I am on a one-woman quest to bring it back into everyday parlance – join the insanity won’t you?).
faux leather jacket: Macys / maxi dress: Old Navy / lace top: ModCloth Also, the MET Costume Institute’s Gala!!! This year it opens the Alexander McQueen Savage Beauty exhibit (which I will be traveling to NYC to see sometime in the next few weeks) and, as one would expect, the fashion was amazing. Here were some of my favorites.
Sarah Jessica Parker in Alexander McQueen
Salma Hayek in Alexander McQueen
Rihanna in Stella McCartney
Taylor Swift in J Mendal
Eva Mendes in Stella McCartney
Emma Stone in Lanvin
Daphne Guinness in Alexander McQueen
Christina Ricci in Zac Posen

I love that maxi skirt! The cobalt looks great with the leather jacket.
As for the Met Ball, a lot of the dresses were stunning, but I'm a little disappointed that more people didn't wear McQueen! I was kind of hoping that Sarah Jessica Parker would wear one of his tartan pieces as some sort of nod towards the plaid dress she wore when she attended the gala with him a few years back. The dress she's wearing is obviously gorgeous, but a little too "safe"!

Love your dress!

First of all, I love your outfit. I've been putting my leather jacket over everything lately. I like it best with dresses or anything floral where it feels a little bit unexpected. Next, on the met ball - I have to say I was a bit disappointed with the outfits. They didn't have the same incredible fanciful creativity of years past. I did, however, really love Anna Wintour's dress. It looked every 70's chic.
The maxi, the color block and to top it off-- cobalt blue! That's what I call embracing the trends. :) Love it!
oh sjp. how i long for her skinny legs. and i'm not joshin' you.
xo,

Taylor and Rhianna make my heart go all pitter-patter in these outfits. And look at you-- maxi and bold color! It is such a confident look.
You look beautiful, sweetie! I love the colour combination:) Also, Salma Hayek's gown is breathtaking:) Have a fantastic day, my dear. Kisses
i'm loving that shade of blue in your outfit.
I love that blue maxi! It looks gorgeous on you. Bright colors are my fave. :)
Thanks for all these met photos. Everyone looked spectacular, especially Taylor Swift!
i still say "joshing you". it's actually a 19th century expression.
I love SJP and Emma Stone! I also love your royal blue maxi - you little trend setter too. Isn't it so nice to be taking pictures outside again?? YAY spring!
xo, Ashley
yes yes YES! You look incredible. Not cute, this is babe material.

Electric blue makes such a great impact. Love it. I noticed a lot of blush shades at the Met Ball
SJP, Eva Mendes and Ana Wintour are my favorite choices.
Loved seeing you wearing that beautiful blue dress. The color is very vivid, 'joyful'
Great pictures, all of them ... thanks for sharing.
