Met Gala 2015

Hello all!

Monday night was the highly anticipated Met Ball, one of fashion's premier events of the year. With this post, I bring to you some of my favourite looks of the evening. While the fashion was great, I do have to admit I was rather disappointed with the lack of participation with the theme. However, overall most of the attendees looked great. Very few people made my worst dressed list!














What were some of your favourite looks this year?

Paris Fashion Week || Elie Saab Spring 2013 Couture

As you may or may not know, Elie Saab is one of my absolute favourite designers, so I was definitely interested in this show most! For those of you unfamiliar, he just so happened to design my queen Blair Waldorf's wedding dress on the series finale of Gossip Girl (still can't believe it's over - tear, tear).

Be sure to click the pictures to make them bigger, the detailing on these dresses it too gorgeous not to!!






My favourite part about Elie Saabs designs is always the intricacy in the detailing. From the cutouts to the beading, it's all gorgeous. I also like how everything was sorted by colour, it just made it so easy to look at and was great for transitions.

Paris Fashion Week || Chanel Spring 2013 Couture

I find quite often that I like elements from Chanel, but never it in it's entirety. Mainly because I'm clearly not their target market, so it's very understandable. But I do love the timeless pieces Chanel has to offer, and I feel like once I get to a stage in my life where I meet the demographic I'll love it. That being said, definitely wasn't my favourite show of fashion week.. haha.. or my favourite Chanel show. I don't know.. I also found the show very repetitive. Cara looked great thought!!








My favourite was definitely the black dress Cara wore (7th dress). I also liked when things got more romantic and girly, likely because that's more my style. However I felt as thought the classic tweed suits were very repetitive and nothing innovative which I guess kind of started me in my rampage. A lot of the necklines and colours were repeated numerous times. Understandable a couple, but eh, I got bored.

I'm sorry if it seemed like I was bashing it a bit.. I just didn't think it was Chanel's best. I liked a bit of the later stuff however! Merely opinion, Karl Lagerfeld is still a God, no worries!
