A Fashionable Wednesday - Met Gala 2013

M E T   G A L A   2 0 1 3

The theme for this year's ball was Punk: Chaos to Couture and the outfits definitely reflected this. 

Held at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC on Monday night, 

it is fashion's biggest red carpet event of the year.

But I struggled this year to define who I really liked and who I didn't! 

I was left feeling "I think I like it!" 

So here's a bit of a round up of what I think where the better looks ...

Alexa Chung in Erdem

Blake Lively in Gucci

Cara Delevingne in Burberry (This is my fave!)

Carey Mulligan in Alexander Wang

Jennifer Lawrence in Dior Couture

Joan Smalls and Tom Ford both in Tom Ford

Jessica Alba in Tory Burch

Jessica Hart in Diane von Furstenberg

Karen Elson in Julien MacDonald

Karlie Kloss in Louis Vuitton

Kate Beckinsale in Alberta Ferretti

Kate Bosworth in Balmain

Miranda Kerr in Michael Kors

Sarah Jessica Parker in Giles Deacon gown and Philip Treacy headpiece

So what do you think? Is there any there you love? 

Or did I miss someone you thought looked fab?

A Fashionable Wednesday - Halston

Halston

I don't know whether it's the fact I'm laid up today with a sprained ankle
that I watched The Love Boat (Yep, I did) that I have become inspired!

I adore Halston and dream of having a Haltson - preferably vintage dress in my wardrobe. 

Such beautiful styles that look so glamorous, long yet comfortable and even somewhat forgiving!

Sadly Roy Halston passed away in 1990 and the brand has just not been the same since.

However maybe that's how it was suppose to stay.

Somethings are just not meant to grow and be reinvented and that,

 in my opinion is Halston.

Celebrity Home - Sarah Jessica Parker

images unknown

Whether any of us admit it or not, I think everyone is fascinated with how celebrities live and love to take a peak insode their homes. I have a huge collection of pics of celeb homes (yes, I know!!) and I will share with you over my blog. Any requests, let me know.

This is Sarah Jessica Parkers home in the Hamptons. I think it is so cute and so cozy. So different to the inner city New York style. I could definitely holiday in the hamptons here!
