As you can probably tell, I'm having a bloggers field day after the discovery of a Photoshop like application called Pixelmator for my Mac which I think has really made a difference with the aesthetics of my blog. I have a new banner, a new style inspiration sidebar and I'm able to piece photos together like so so you don't have to scroll down through endless images.

Here is a selection of my best dressed list for the Met Ball 2011 (I emphasise selection because I keep finding celebs to add to my list). All of Hollywood young and old rocked up to the event in honour of Alexander McQueen. My gold star goes to Diana Kruger wearing a charming sexy slit dress by Jason Wu, and my up and coming award to Emma Roberts in a chic, sleek silk crepe gown by Michael Kors. The trends for the night seemed to be nude palettes, tulle and silk, trains, classic long white gowns and sequinned embellishments.

No longer the hopeless romantic teenage girl who cries in the rain, wearing sparkly dresses and cowboy boots and writing songs about all her lost loves and the boys who've screwed her over, Taylor finally decided to spice things up a bit.
When I first saw this, I had to double take - I don't think I've ever not seen her in floral sundresses and cardigans. This is completely opposite to her typical wardrobe - it's smart, sassy, sophisticated Ms Swift and I love it.
I do admire the way she embraces her curly locks but the blunt bangs and straight hair make her look more mature and frame her facial features. Black on black is about as chic as they get, the skinnys, the brogues and the blazer are such simple, staple pieces but work so well on her slender, tall frame.
It just goes to show how a makeover once in a while can do a world of good.
