Met Criticism...




Truth be told, my friends and I spend much of the day scrutinizing or praising the fashion choices of the paparazzi clad. It may sound vein, but it is loads and loads of fun. So, today we took on the Met Gala and literally dissected everyone who attended the Gala.
A dear friend of mine poignantly portrayed her opinion in an e-mail with a subject line that read:
My Met Faves and Not Faves.
" Emily Mortimer #1… I love the wooden belt with the gown
Julia Roberts
Margherita Missoni – although not a fan of the necklace choice
Zac Posen – Love the blue… but only he can pull it off
Kristin Davis – Pretty and age appropriate
Jason Lewis – Dolce & Gabbana – he looks hot
Lily Donaldson – the whole look works for me… love the dress with the accessories, with the hair, etc..
David Beckham – yum
Kate Moss – cleaned up her act… I like this on her
Lauren Santo Domingo – Another one of my faves
Maggie Gyllenhaal – I really like the dress, but her hair kind of ruins it
What were they thinking?!?:
Naomi Watts – Really Marilyn Monroe??
Joy Bryant – It’s not possible to have more pucci on a person
Lake Bell – the dress looks cheap
Michelle Monaghan – looks like an actual tree trunk
Thandie Newton – Chanel but she looks like a hooker
Katie Holmes – the dress is bad enough, but add on the blue shoes and it’s horrendous
Jennifer Connelly – 80’s high school dance dress – the jewelry is enough to throw me over the edge
Victoria Beckham – I can’t even talk about it… and who knew it was possible for her boobs to look more fake than they normally do?
Fergie – her eye makeup makes her look like trannie
Melania Trump – it looks like a florescent pink version of her bad wedding dress
John Mayer – the shoes and the tie are not ok… at all
Kimora Lee Simons – the dress is tragic enough, but add the clutch to it and it gets even more terrifying
Wendi Murdoch – wow
Dr. Lisa Airan – not sure who she is, but I do know she has bad taste and friends that lie to her telling her that she looks ok "

I couldn't stop laughing as I read this e-mail on my trusted blackberry! I think it was "totes perf" (a tribute to the friend whose e-mail I just exposed on a mass level).
So, naturally, I thought I should share these thoughts with you if for nothing else than to give you a little insight into the banter of the fashion worlds elite (meaning us, haha! yea right!)
