Met Gala: the Good, the Big and the Ugly.

Would kill to go to the Alexander McQueen exhibition Savage Beauty at the Metropolitan Museum in NY.

Last night was the Metropolitan Museum's Costume Institute Gale, and unlike the oscars, fashion people who come to big events like this aren't afraid of taking risks. LOVE.

Also, it seemed like everyone who wasn't in McQueen was in McCartney!! Some obligation to wear a British designer? Very strange. . . . or maybe I just loved all the McCartney frocks.

Anyway, here's the Good, the Big, and the Ugly. xx


Thandie Newton in Stella McCartney, Taylor Swift in J Mendel (pictured with Giles Mendel)

SJP and Sarah Burton, both in McQueen.



Rihanna in Stella McCartney - not normally a fan but I LOVED this crazy dress!



Salma Hayek and Stella McCartney, Natalia in Valentino (with designer)


Oh dear. MK in Vintage Givenchy, Miranda in balletic Marchesa. Undecided on that one.



Dianna Agron in Michael Kors (with designer), Kate Winslet in Stella McC.


Lea Michele in Escada, Karlie Kloss in Dior! Love simple hair + big dress.


Very BIG Kate Hudson in Stella, Jessica Szohr in Topshop Unique (say what?!) weird.


JLo in Gucci, Gisele in McQueen. Love love love.


Miserable-looking Isabel Lucas in LV, Fanning sisters both in Valentino.


Hailee Steinfeld in Stella, Emma Roberts in Michael Kors.


Eva Mendes in Stella, Ashlee Greene in Donna Karen.


Daphne Guinness in what can only be described as a bird (McQueen), and Andre Leon Talley in I dont even know what. It's like 'how can I possibly make myself bigger?'.


Blake Lively in Chanel Couture (with Karl), Alexa Chung in Christopher Kane.


Anna Della Russo (but of course!) in McQueen, Amber Valletta in Stella.


PS What's with all the stars posing with the designers? Have designers replaced sports star boyfriends as the ultimate arm candy?

Baby Ballerinas.


Vogue Enfants.


On a bit of a ballet buzz at the moment, but realize that in the insanity that is my life, there is definitely not the time or energy to dedicate to getting into it. Would love to be able to go on pointe one day, but sadly requires a lot of commitment as a 'mature' dancer (I'm only 19 for chrissake!).

Shoes.

The window of Rubi Shoes, which I took a photo of last year, but my friend Nat's pic is better. So true.



We're crazy busy at the moment with uni and being away for the holidays. We haven't forgotten about trashyclassy, don't you worry.

One of my favorite blogs - Studded Hearts posts fabulous editorials (often from magazines from past years), celebrity photos and things that are just plain cute. These are some of my favorite photos from my vast collection from this blog =)

Chanel + Carine + Freja!

According to fashionista.com, who heard it from WWD, Carine Roitfeld has recently styled Chanel's fall campaign, with Freja Beha Erichsen. That's like three of my favorites in one - cannot wait to see these pictures when they finally come out!!!!

Huffer.

Not normally a fan of Huffer, but their winter 2011 stuff looks amazing! I would happily have every single piece!

Sorry for the crap quality photos - there aren't any high quality saveable ones that i can find! Fail Huffer. How am I supposed to make wishlists now? Their catalogue is available on www.huffer.co.nz.


Aimee McFarlane took charge of Huffer last year, after a long stint with Lonely Hearts. Personally, I absolutely love her Huffer stuff, and even though it's not much like what she did for LH, it certainly works =)








Have a good weekend!! Amy xx
