the Met Ball

Clean and simple: Emma Stone in Lanvin (the pic of her with Lanvin designer Alber Elbaz was adorable) and Amber Valletta in Prada. One of many in Prada because of the new exhibit and, I have to say, I like hers the best.

All Covered Up: Mary-Kate Olsen in The Row, this look is pretty shocking and monastic, it's true.  But considering how tiny she is, it fit her very well and her trashy, bleached her is a great contrast to the stark dress. Kirsten Dunst sort of looked like a '30s librarian in her Rodarte ensemble (it's not even a dress!) but I still loved it. And love her pose! As much as people made fun of Angelina at the Oscars, she has started a red carpet trend of having a pose to match your outfit.

Silver Sirens: Camilla Belle in Ralph Lauren collection (I thought this was Versace) - I didn't love this dress but I liked her whole look with the hair pulled back and the dark lipstick. Lana del Rey really vamped it up in this sparkly number by Joseph Altazurra. And yes, Gwyneth did the cape first, but it must be said, capes look better in black.

Bangs with Black: Liv Tyler, I'm just happy to see you. No really, her Givenchy dress was really stunning. Liked it better than Rooney Mara's dress from the same fashion house. Marion Cotillard looked like the Frenchie she is in head-to-toe Christian Dior. Many at the met ball did the sheer skirt look but hers was the most interesting.
