The next phase in the Kate Moss for Topshop saga has begun! Phase Barneys. So you lucky New Yorkers, though you are used to crowds, prepare yourself for some early morning elbowing and snatching at Barneys. As for the rest of us, good luck at the Barneys Coop website. Yours truly attempted to score some goods and my computer crashed mid order - rats! I then went back to find this message:
Not funny ha ha - funny boo hoo. Maybe my order made it through to the fashion gods? Stay tuned!
Wow! The fashion and beauty looks last night at the Met's Costume Institute Gala were simply out of this world and kept us busy all day long! We wanted to make sure you got a chance to vote on all the red carpet looks, so click on the links below and tell us what you thought. Who were my faves? Not the usual suspects actually: Kate Bosworth, Mischa Barton, Mary-Kate Olsen and Liv Tyler! Who were your favorites? There are just so many to choose from...
We saved one of the best for last - the belle of the ball so to speak. Now, this event is one of the most important of the year for the fashion cognoscenti - as you can see from all of our polls! Leave it to Anna to wear one of the most dramatic pieces of the evening. While it looks a bit like fashion armor, if I were Anna this would be my choice too. Bold, provocative, and friggin' fashion forward. What do you think?

I have to say I'm a bit disappointed in Kate's choice for the gala. I think she may be wearing a creation from her Topshop collection, which would be cool but this dress just falls flat. Plus, she looks a bit tired - maybe too much Topshop action for this model star? Those art deco diamond earrings are killer though. What do you think?

Ooh! Camilla looks like a sultry super hero no? While one is supposed to bring on the drama for this event, I think this beauty delivered just the right amount of it in this glittering Jean Paul Gaultier. I also love her glam updo. What do you think?

I like Eva's dress, but next to some of the other more theatrical gowns at the gala, it looks rather simple and tame. I think this would have worked for a movie premiere, but for a gala, it's a little too 80s cocktail party. Her hair and earrings are the high notes. Do you agree?

Uh oh Ellen...your dress is falling off! This could have been a major red carpet disaster, but it looks like she may have recovered. I am loving her hair and makeup, but the dress is a little boring compared to some of the others we have seen. What do you think?

Color gradation on a dress looks good when it's subtle, but Claire's Prada gown is anything but that. The bright orange center looks like it's been spray painted on. I would have much preferred the dress in all gunmetal grey. Now, I'm no beauty expert, but I'm sure Bella would tell Claire that pink lipstick with a grey and orange gown doesn't work. Thoughts?

Is Gisele about to jet off into space or attend a gala? This dress just seems a bit too space-age to me, but she is fitting right in with the black and white theme that we are seeing from last night. I think she looks amazing in anything, so I am going to go with a Love It! What do you think?

Brooke Shields looks nice here and all, but maybe just a little bit boring and also kind of like she is getting married. I do like the splash of orange that her earrings bring to the table. What do you think?
