Just Casually Being Biased And Judgmental


It was the Met Gala on Monday. Since I live in New York, you would probably expect me to be standing in one of those barricaded areas and snapping obnoxiously low-quality cell photo photos of celebrities. But no. I'm better than that. Why would I stand there for hours when I could just go home and watch the livestream in the comfort of my home and Micky Mouse sweatpants? Besides I have no clue Rooney Mara would be going with Riccardo Tisci, otherwise I would be camping out the Met since last Friday. Since I didn't go I might as well as make myself feel better and write a post about the most eye-catching outfits that I actually like.

Florence Welch casually popped out of your screen because her dress looks like an overly-decorated cake.
First off, we have Alexa Chung just chilling in a dress from one of my favourite Marc Jacobs collection, no big deal. And Florence Welch was just being a bunch of embroidered lace designed for her by Sarah Burton at Alexander McQueen, looking like a fairy pulled straight out of the forest. There's also Chanel Iman being a bombshell wearing Tom Ford, as known as the dress to end all dresses. I mean, look at the embroidery. The tailoring. My creys. And then there's Lana Del Rey, being Lana Del Rey with her Altuzarra cape and dress. The cape is very damn ugly, but it wouldn't be Lana Del Rey without a cape, would it?

Oh my, is the Queen actually smiling for once? And the smile actually looks genuine

For once, I actually like what Queen Anna's wearing and that's a rare thing. The custom Prada dress was a reinvented version of the original Schiaparelli version, and the white fox stole added a hint of retro glamour. And she's not wearing Chanel! And Carey Mulligan was also wearing custom Prada, which reminds me a bit of the fall 2011 collection. One question: how on earth was suppose to sit? Squat on the floor? Eh. Anyway, Emma Stone literally looked like someone(or something) that comes straight out of a fairy tale. Designed by Alber Elbaz of Lanvin, it seems very out of place with the recent Lanvin collections. And there's also Camille Bell just wearing Ralph Lauren and looked like she's from the Roaring Twenties.

I had originally wanted to dedicate this entire collage to Rooney but I can't find enough photos. Damn you Google Images!

As the post title had suggested, I'm just casually being biased and judgmental. Which is also code for "I'm gonna go all fangirl on you and shit." Mia Wasikowska wore Prada, and the silhouette is very similar to fall 2012 and I love the embroidery on the collar and belt a lot. And I rarely say "I love" about anything. Last but not least we have the one-and-only Pepperooney Marinara Rooney Mara in the only thing possible: Givenchy. My wish had came true! Rooney really is wearing more Givenchy! Leather and lace are the perfect mixture of Lisbeth Salander and pre-TGWTDT Rooney Mara. Besides, she went with Riccardo Tisci. Your argument is nonexistent and invalid.
