For some reason this morning I woke up at 4.41am. I’m not sure why but I find it difficult to get back to sleep once I’ve woken up. I end up doing my ritual of checking Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat and even Facebook if I have to.
My eyes were in for a visual treat this morning as last night, New York City played host to The Met Ball. It is an annual fundraising event at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, each year with a differing theme. This year being China, Through the Looking Glass. The event seems less about the charity element and more about the fashion choices of the celebs on the night and how they interpret it. This is entirely understandable, everything is about image these days, isn’t it? I mean I love fashion, absolutely LOVE fashion but all award shows seem to be about “Who are you wearing?” than the actual event. Should this just be left to fashion week? I suppose not, life is too short, wear what you want and be happy.
On that note here are a few of my favourites from The Met Ball. I think Rihanna interpreted the theme perfectly, albeit looking slightly like an omelette, she really does take risks. Another love of mine is none other than Queen B herself, only she could make crushed glass look this good. I do like Kim Kardashian West’s too but I do feel like she played it a little too “safe”.
