2011 Mtv Movie Awards

I didn't get phased, but these dresses I like...

Ah, this girl is adorable!

Not alot of women could wear what she's wearing and look so good, chic, yet girly.

coz she's a super girl

So, I have a s thing for dresses again.

Especially for the long ones.

A long dress is now on top of my "wanted" list. But I don't want that hippy, floral maxi dress, and it's not that I don't like them, I just want something understated (at first), but with a killer detail or just a cool accessory to go with.

I still haven't gotten over the nude phase. I never got enough items to be over it, I suppose. So it continues. My search for "nudity" continues.

Here's my favorite gal! She wears long dresses like no other.

the met ball

The Met Ball is always something I look forward to.

(spoken as I were ever actually there :)

There were many stunning gowns, many that didn't disappoint, and some whatever ones.

Here are ones I found wonderful.

(Parker in McQueen)

(Roberts in Michael Kors)

(Paltrow in Stella McCartney)

(Kruger in Jason Wu)

It could be my favorite.

(Zellweger in Carolin Herrera)

(Wats in Stella McCartney)

(Pinto in Chanel haute couture)

I don't like the tie though.

(Tyler in Givenchy haute couture by Riccardo Tisci)

Now, a splash of color...

(Saldana in Calvin Klein)

(Agron in Michael Kors)

(Goodwin in Top Shop)

(Gyllenhaal in Stella McCartney)

(Mendes in McCartney)

(Williams in custom MiuMiu)

Cute and simple with a vintagy feel. Very Williams-like.

And the most dramatic dress of the night...

(Ricci in Zac Posen)

It seems nude is still going strong. I like it!

And Stella McCartney is one desirable lady! I applaud her! She is a true aesthete and knows her stuff.

rochas & theyskens

I am sorry that you can't see more on Rochas' web site, but this will have to do.

This collection has all this wonderful elements that I like: sheer fabric, thin straps, silenced colors, open backs, some sequins and long sleeved dresses.

Olivier Theyskens use to work here. But it's been years...

His work here was spectacular, to no surprise, but it failed to follow the economic model it was supposed to. So Procter & Gamble decided to end Rochas in 2006. Fools!

Olivier went to Nina Ricci, debuting his first line in 2007. Again it was spectacular!

And as the fashion world gasped upon his genius, the ones handling the finances made a decision to, yet again, end his work, since it was not lucrative enough.

Ana Wintour was upset. Actually she was outraged. So she wrote a little something saying it's a sad day, when money wins over creation and that talent, such as his, shouldn't be thrown away...

I'm positive that had her reign extended over financiers' borders, they'd have gotten the off-with-their-heads.

Still Rochas lives!

In 2008 they named Marco Zanini the artistic director of the label and he's doing a good job.

The line, to me, is a bit reminiscent of Olivier. It's sheer and light and feminine and soft.

Olivier however is currently residing at Theory, and here is the collection.

It's not at all the demicouture we're use to, but it's elegant, wearable and semi affordable.

perfection

I said it once and I'll say it again:

Ballet & Fashion is a lethal combination that makes time stand still...

I mean, the choreo! The clothes! Ahh!

Possibly the most beautiful photo.

And staircase.

And dress.

And color of course.

stellar kate

Kate Winslet in Stella McCartney

One of the most beautiful women and one of the best designers.

givenchy, mint and some other things

I'm an absolute huge fan of Givenchy, Ricardo Tisci and Cate Blanchet.

So you can imagine my joy seeing Cate wearing this dress! To me she was the best dressed that evening, though there were some other great dresses.

The other order of business is home dressing.

Reader, how do you dress at home?

And how to stay clean if you have a dog and do all sorts of messy stuff while at home? I must say, I sometimes irritate myself and the reason is I, cant stay neat and put together when I'm home. I don't mind being uncomfortably dressed outside the house, and I even find certain pleasure in overdressing for the occasion, but at home I need to be super comfy. I cook, play with my dog, go outside, I sit in the most twisted positions possible, and I always manage to tear something or get myself dirty.

That's why I like the picture with a woman putting something in the oven in a mint gown, because I'd love to be so well dressed at home.

Ok, a gown for everyday is a bit extreme, but everything in between a hobo and a gown would be highly appreciated :)

So it's been decided: I will be a chic home dresser when I grow up! Or at least own 30 silk kimonos and wear them nonchalantly around the house.
