MET Gala 2015 Favourites: China through the looking glass

I sincerely believe that taste is a very subjective matter thus I don't really rely on all those Best & Worst Dressed lists. Consequently, I will try to avoid expressing my dissaproval to some of the outfits worn at the famous gala. Let just say they were almost naked but not necesarilly :) (not that I am a prude but I do believe in the concepts of "lady" and "polished" and "classy", moreover when one serves as an example and, frankly, has resources for better clothes). Instead I'd better show my absolutely favourite girls who wore the most beautiful outfits.

Usually, when an event happens I like to check as many sources as possible in order to get a broader coverage of stars who attented it, because events are not only about Beyonce or Jennifer Lawrence but also about less popular stars with sometimes better taste (or stylists ;) ) The awards season is generally a little celebration for me because I do love to see all those ladies (and gents) gracing the red carpet in nice outfits. My most favourite internet place to check out photo reports is Vogue UK (shout out to their website with gorgeus big pictures and an easy-to-use interface).

So here is my personal choice for the best dressed ladies at the 2015 MET Gala:

Maggie Q in Tory Burch

Helen Mirren in Dolce & Gabbana

Diane Kruger in Chanel

And what were your favourites? :)

Plans onward

The Leopard Embellished Dress - www.romwe.com

This is intended as a motivational post :D I shall look at these dresses and remember how much I crave them, and this, hypothetically, should motivate me to sew them :D There is also a dress I envision as a black leather top and tweed dark-orange skirt (no pics just my imagination). Seems like a plan :D

Asymmetric dress - www.dixistore.com (a local manufacturer & retailer)

Anne Hathaway at Golden Globe Awards 2013

I can drool over this woman infinitely because she is perfection both as a beautiful woman and talented actress. I haven't seen yet "Les Miserables" (which I dreadfully regret) and the fact that Anne got the award for the best supporting actress makes me tingle with impatience too see it. All the more sure she was awesome there :)

Emma Watson vs. Kristen Stewart

 These two actresses have always been compared and even I fall sometimes into temptation to put them side by side, despite my admiration for Emma clearly prevailing. However this time I wonder if Kristen/Kristen's stylists had deliberately chosen this dress for the last Twilight premiere [don't ask, no idea how the last movie is called :D]. Her dress is almost similar to the dress Emma wore last year at a similar event - the premiere of the last Harry Potter movie.

Coral, gold & statement

The truth is that among all the daily calculations and straightfoward excel formulas my brain rebels and requires other kinds of food......when this happens I like to create :) Unfortunately the boring life of a working-class girl do not offer to much time for hobby-pursuing, thus not so much happening on this blog. However, now I have something to share and it hapens to be a dress I made for a new event I went (my cousin's wedding).
