Ah, the Met Gala. It really is the best of all the red carpets, don’t you think? This year’s theme was “camp” (as in tacky, not campfires), which made for some over the top looks and quirky surprises. Let’s get to it! CELEBRITIES WHO HONORED THE THEME AND STILL LOOKED FABULOUS! Lady Gaga I’m pretty sure this is the exact same fabric from the bridesmaids dresses in my wedding. (Embarrassing fact: I also DIY-ed a fuchsia satin runner for the aisle to match their dresses.) Does that mean the theme of my wedding was camp? (Maybe don’t answer that.) Gaga’s dress is fine ..read more

Each January, I write down 100 things I want to accomplish in the new year. Do you know what makes the list every single time? “Attend a gala.” Why do I so desperately want to attend a gala?

As I browsed red carpet photos, I couldn’t help but feel reminded of various inanimate objects by several of the dresses. So, no best or worst list this week. Instead, a simple photo comparison where I highlight the similarities be ..read more

I’ll admit it–I missed the Screen Actors Guilds Awards this year. (Although I do have the excellent excuse of being on a transatlantic flight during the broadcast.) But I’m not about to let some silly detail like not actually watching the show prevent me from being an opinionated internet fashion troll! That would be ridiculous. I’m short on time, but still wanted to pop in with my 5 best (and worst) looks from the red carpet. The Best Amy Adams in Celine Va va voom! Is this Amy Adams or a vintage Barbie doll? The cummerbund waistband with the peplum detail is so glamorous and fla ..read more
