met gala 2010: soooo awesome...

i would love to be invited to the met gala... and i would happily wear just about anything any designer would want to put me in. these ladies below just scream fabulous!!! i mean, i would rock any and all of these gowns. sparkle and nude was really the trend of the evening. and i love sparkling and being nude... huh? 
top pick #1. ohmylordy. like 5 years ago could you possibly image nicole richie looking this super hot!!! i mean, this marc jacobs is perfection!!! her hair, makeup, accessories, i die! there is nothing bad to say about this look... if you have something bad to say you shouldn't say anything at all... at least, that's what my mommy told me. 
top pick #2. um, i've have died and gone to heaven. this is freaking perfection. tiny little kate bosworth in this genius valentino. the beading and delicate colors. oooohhh my fabulous! the back is sheer perfection. and the hair and makeup are ah-mazing. i'm in love. have i mentioned this is perfect?
top pick #3. hermione granger never ceases to amaze me. emma watson is just beautiful and this burberry gown is just stunningly fabulous. i love it all, top to bottom. wow. 
top pick #4. how ah-mazing is this couple? diane kruger and joshua jackson are my favorite. pllleeeaaasee stay together forever... i might cry if they ever break up. she looks beautiful in this white calvin klein. out-of-control. the look is simple, but the fit is impeccable, structured to perfection, as only francisco costa can do! and pacey is looking super sharp. love his suit. hot couple alert.
top pick #5. this is tailoring done right. the fit of this calvin klein and the wild fabric make it a freaking hit. zoe saldana has been one of my favorites on the red carpet for a while now! she can wear insanely crazy gowns, think the givenchy, then something as simple as this... and she looks insanely stylish doing either. that's a true fashionista. 
uh, hello jenny from the block is back. what in the hell has jennifer lopez been doing over the past month!? because she looks absolutely ah-mazing!!! and this zuhair murad is just out of control. it's beautiful and complicated and interesting. her hair looks stunning and the make up is perfection. the best she has looked in years. love it. 
i wasn't sure if i loooved this or just liked it... but i loved it more than i disliked it... huh? does anyone remember my point? ah, basically this valentino is beautiful. i hate her necklace, but this gown is so beautiful that it trumps the tiny necklace. this color is beautiful. and the gown is tailored perfectly, she looks super skinny and super tall... the only two things you need. 
marion looking smoking hot in christian dior. i don't know why i like this so much. it just looks like she is dripping diamonds. like she bathed in diamonds... don't you want to bathe in diamonds!? i dig the hair... i just like this. sue me. 
yay, sjp looking like a boho chic fashionista in halston. the color of this gown is perfection. as always, she is styled perfectly and her spray tan seems to be under control. love the pleats. love. 
if it isn't kate hudson and her new boobies. yup, she totally got a boob job. but she looks great and she really didn't over do it. this stella mccartney is gorgeous! i love the shoes, the hair, the jewels. this is a fabulous look on her.
love her. love him. so stinking awesome. this lamb gown on gwen is just beautiful. i love the fit and the strange gauzy fabric mixed with the black. i love it. the bracelet is wonderful and as always the red nails and lips are just the perfect final touch. she's great. 
so, i love this thakoon for gap gown on kerry washington. this orange/red color on her skin tone is beautiful. i freaking adore the bodice, the shoulder draping, and that slit. this is beautiful. she's beautiful. love it.
this is a good look on mila kunis, she looks like a little vera wang rock princess. the detail on the dress makes me very happy. i love the wild bunched skirt. she is very good at balancing the giant gown on her tiny frame. plus, she is super hot. 
now, some people were dissing this, but i think elizabeth banks wearing gucci looks like a rockstar. her hair and makeup look super sexy and all of the textures are just fabulous. i think this is fun. am i crazy? 
omg, i should have been a missoni!! margherita missoni is stunning and this gown rocks my socks. i freaking love the apron-like front, that pattern! it's beautiful! i even dig her stupid ruby/diamond head thing. this is just quite a look, so i understand that not everyone will dig it, but it works for me. 
poor sienna miller, he's gonna cheat on her again, 'cause he's a douche. but this pucci gown is genius! holy wow, the gown is just stunning and even though it's dark, all of the textures make it insanely interesting and those shoes are bananas! i want!

celebrities designing clothes...kind of annoying, right?

celebrities have tough lives. for serious. i mean, designer clothes, world travel, living their dreams, going to rehab...do these folks really have time to be "designing" their own fashion lines!? come on, everyone and their brother has a fashion line or a perfume and personally i find it annoying. i think my biggest problem is how these companies seem to equate stylish women with women who know design. now, some of these lines are incredibly successful and inventive, but it seems like such a gimmick most times.
i mean the kardashian's for bebe, no thank you, in fact even if a piece was cute i couldn't purchase it out of principal, these women are famous for NO reason, i'll repeat, NO reason...but it's okay, just because the have a reality show, own a clothing store, and are relatively fashionable...yeah, let's give them a fashion line! can they sew? sketch? there are designers all over the world who would kill to have their own line and we are gonna let some c-list celebrities make outfits that are cute. bollocks.
now, i know that the girls from laguna beach, the hills, the city...whatever, love fashion and studied blah blah, well, they also get fashion lines...hmm, so shitty reality television equals your own fashion line. suck. in the real world these ladies would have to spend years apprenticing and learning...unless they were exceptional designers and while i find both whitney port and lauren conrad very cute girls with great style, their clothes are overpriced, typical, and could easily be purchased at forever21 for a fraction of the cost.
and who's to say that fergie and jessica simpson know a damn thing about designing a shoe...i mean, they are cute shoes...most of them look like rip-offs of other shoes, which is fine, but why pay a celebrity to endorse a line of knockoffs? are fergie and jessica simpson that influential in the fashion world...no... now the one thing that i will give these two song birds is that both their shoe lines and boobie simpson's accessories are decent prices for a decent product.
i guess when it comes down to it, who cares? but i always get my panties in a twist when i see a celebrity get a ridiculously amazing opportunity for simply being, when there is a genius struggling designer out there that eats and breathes fashion working 6 jobs to survive. dude, you are actors and singers...you already get to live your dream, you don't need to be a brand. would i except a clothing line? i honestly don't know, i love fashion, seriously i love it, like i could wrap myself up in fashion and be happy forever, BUT i am not a designer i like to think that i can make art out of designers amazing work, but that's already a thing...it's called a stylist. and at the end of the day how many of these ladies dress themselves...hmmm. point made ;) 
now, with all of that bitching i have to say there are a few celeb designers that just rock my socks. and i think i enjoy them because they seem devoid of that gimmicky element. my favorite celebrity designers, marykate and ashley olsen's elizabeth and james and the row, lamb by gwen stefani, and victoria beckham's new line. the olsen twins are really something special, they are fashion school drop outs, but really have this understanding of classic/boho/street/chic style, that's a freaking mouthful, that's what she said... moving on, i can't really afford much from their collections, but i can sure as hell try stuff on at intermix and their blazers fit like perfection, their shirts drape perfectly...they really understand what looks good on a women...so to me, they are designers that just so happened to be child actors. i think that gwen stefani has such a personal sense of style and a way of doing things that is completely her own and i think that her line is just beautiful, nothing seems manufactured, it's just her being real and honest through fashion. have you ever tried on lamb shoes? holy lord, your legs look like sex! so stinking hot! now my latest love is victoria beckham, i wasn't a huge fan of the dvf jean line which was full of that blah celebrity whatnot, but this new line is amazing, whoever they have added to the team was worth it. the clothes are very quintessential victoria beckham and seem to fit women like a freaking glove.

so that's my rant. what do you think? are you a fan of celebrity designers? does it even matter? who do you like? hate? does it make you laugh to know that madonna is currently working on a line for macys. it makes me laugh, just in a british accent...

who looked cuter than you this week...


how hot is she? i love when gwen does a nude lip, it's funny how shocking it is on her. everything about this outfit is flattering. this chick is my hero. it's getting colder out so you should definitely bust out your black and colored tights, tis the season!!!
in j mendel, diane kruger does what she does best, look hot! i just love the modern shaped skirt and unassuming fabric/color mixed with some sexy heels and a hot lanvin clutch.
i adore this pattern! jason wu just might be my hero! this pattern rocks my socks and the draping is simply perfection. i love the silver shoes.
so she goes from sexy fun cocktail dresses, to an amazing narcisco rodriguez gown just blows me away. i love that she edges it up a bit with amazing nude lace up pumps. kruger carries the cutest clutches, they are always interesting, but never overpowering. use this in your daily life, you never want to be all matchy-matchy with your bag and clothes, you also don't want it to be too much...

so it's not a surprise that gwen stefani and diane kruger made the list, diane thrice. these ladies are seriously hot and know how to enhance that with clothes. and apparently it's going to be a new thing to do the asymmetrical skirt, shorter in front longer in back...the mullet of gowns if you will. prepare yourself.
