Met Gala 2012 (and Silver Prada Dresses)
Each year the Met Gala brings amazing fashion (apparently it's referred to as the Oscars of the fashion industry?) and I love some of this years looks so much that I had to share.
My favorite look was Gwyneth Paltrow in this little grey Prada dress. How darling is the side shot? Asymmetrical hems are everywhere right now and I love the playfulness of the swingy skirt mixed with the super sexy low back. Plus, I think she styled it perfectly with simple hair and some great glittery hoop earrings.
The second lady in Prada who blew me away was Ms. Carey Mulligan in this fish-scale halter dress. She tends to look a little cutesy and I love how she spiced it up with this almost futuristic low back dress.
And, one more amazing prada dress... this cobalt blue feather trimmed dress Diane Kruger wore was a total showstopper. She makes it look so effortless! Love the more casual hair and long pendant necklace!
I don't know much about Solange Knowles, but I think she made a great fashion choice with this yellow peplum Rachel Roy gown. I think letting the color be the star with this simple/sleek silhouette is the right way to do a bright color on the red carpet.
Kristen Wiig seems to almost always be wearing a flowy nude gown, so I was excited to see her in my favorite color in this fun orange lace Stella McCartney pleated dress. It's a retro silhoute, but the texture and nude panels give it a modern twist. Unlike the others, this is a dress I could easily see myself wearing to a fun event like a friends wedding (if only!)
Have you checked out the red carpet photos? Any other favorites I missed?

WOW, Carey Mulligan looks amazing in that fish scales dress! She almost looks like a femme bot.
