southern babble: Met Gala Goodness

Every year I look forward to the Met Gala only to see the crazy, stunning, awful and disgraceful dresses and let's be honest, there were more worst dressed stars than best dressed this year. But, hey it made the handful of fashion highlights truly stand out.

The theme and dress code for the night was the technologically advanced couturier Charles James and white tie. Who is Charles James? He was a British-born fashion designer known as "America's First Couturier". He was known for his structural aesthetics, and by judging from last night a lot of stars got it right. Now, that's not saying they were one of the best dressed, they just understood the concept. The top trends that were spotted along the red carpet were the muted tones of Spring and the classic look of black & white.

From the top fashion standouts, it was difficult to narrow down my faves, which is why I compiled a list of my top ten best dressed looks. But only one took home the grand prize, and that would be Blake Lively. She looked absolutely amazing in this form-fitting Gucci gown. The return of the blonde bombshell? I think so.
