The notorious met gala took place in New York City yesterday and I have to say that the fashion gets better and better year by year! The Met Gala is one of the most important nights on the fashion calendar and I am always excited to see what and who everyone wore. Here are some of my favourite looks of the night.

Rihanna was by far the best dressed for me on the night. She looked flawless in Stella McCartney. White on white is a huge trend for S/S 2014 and she rocked it from head to toe. Rihanna never fails to impress us, she always raises the fashion bar and she never sticks to just one style. I am in love with every element of this outift from the elegant train, the exposed midriff, the open back, long sleeves and the choker style necklace completes the look perfectly. 
Model and actress; Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and head designer of Balmain; Olive Rousteing were also in the running for best dressed in my eyes.
Both are wearing Balmain A/W 2014. These ensembles scream high fashion and perfection. 
Model and actress; Suki Waterhouse looked absolutely amazing in Burberry. I love that she wore her hair up as it shows of her decadent décolletage. Her make up is gorgeous and this Burberry gown fits her like a glove.
It was no surprise that Sarah Jessica Parker looked gorgeous at the Met Gala. SJP turned up in a stunning gown by Oscar De La Renta. She looked like a fairytale princess. I have a weakness for long gloves with ball gowns. Her hair and make-up is so creative and fresh. When you see her look from the front you think perfection and then she turnes around! The back of this dress is out of this world. I am in LOVE with this entire look.
The power couple in fashion are of course the Beckhams. These two are the ones that I was looking forward to seeing what they wore the most and I was not disappointed. The uber handsome David Beckham wore Ralph Lauren while Victoria shone in her own design. This couple always look flawless and they are rocking the white trend.  

I couldn't mention power couples without mentioning JayZ and Beyonce no could I. White was a continuous trend for men at this years Met Gala. JayZ and Beyonce are both wearing Givenchy. Beyonce looks unreal! Her headpiece is to die for! Dark lips were also a big make-up trend at the Met Gala. The dropped earrings are devine and the sheet skirt part of Beyonce's dress is breathtaking. The plunging v neck an cinched in waist detail extenuates her envious curves. 
Rita Ora caused a bit of controvery over what she chose to wear to this event. She wore a champagne-coloured gown by Donna Karan Atelier paired with these statement boots. I personally loved this look and I really admire the fact that Rita Ora loves fashion and she likes to play around with different styles, she is not afraid to take risks when it comes to fashion. You will either love or hate this look. 
I LOVE IT!
The Olsen twins can do no wrong in my book. These fashionistas both wore vintage Chanel. I am always excited to see what Mary-Kate and Ashley will wear next. There style has evolved so much over the years and they are constantly taking the fashion world by storm. 

Anne Hathaway went for an understated and simple red dress with a slit and exposed midriff by Calvin Klien. This dress looks like it was made for her and the colour red suits her so much. 
 Last but not least, the ultimate IT girl of the moment model Cara Delevingne (my major girl crush) rocked a black cut out crop top paired with white trousers both by Stella McCartney. I love that Cara chose not to go with the crowd and wore trousers instead of a dress. She is absolutely fabulous and her hair and make-up are flawless (as per usual). 

There you have it the above images are my top 10 picks from the Met Gala 2014.
