2012 Met Costume Institute Gala: Carey Mulligan + Kristen Stewart

Carey Mulligan, I gotta say, I love this. It's like a modern-day twist on a mermaid. I'm a massive fan of sparkle - and you've just turned it on - like you've stepped into the shower and been covered in sequins. Prada for the win.

Kristen Stewart. Or is it Kirsten? I can never remember. What I do remember is that no matter what, you never seem to smile. And that makes me a wee bit grumpy. But I'd be grumpy wearing that outfit too. It's like you got into Barbie's wardrobe and couldn't find anything to go with that Mondrian-esque skirt, so you went with pixelatted vinyl. Blergh. I don't care that it's Balenciaga. It's not even a red hot mess. It's a cold mess.

oh lexi! I have just spent the last ten minutes nearly peeing my pants reading through all the gala coverage. and I agreed with everything. except jessica alba's clutch - too matchy matchy. she needed a pop colour. LOVE lily collins' dress, gorgeous x

Serious what's with the grump from Twilights shoes? They are heinous, Lexi, heinous! I told my ma I was going to get married in that Alexander McQueen number the divine Flo is wearing and do you know what she said? That is why you'll never get married. You can totes come to the wedding and sit where she would have sat! Big love xx
