::met:gala::

Boourns.
I am kinda disappointed in this years Met Gala - the dresses were kinda boring and just - meh. There wasn't anything really there to be like "Omg! Amazing!" I mean...isn't this gala supposed to showcase some of the most outrageous and breath-taking couture out there today? Well...I'll let you guys be the judge. I am not going to post all of the pictures because there are hundreds of them so I just chose some that were my personal favorite.
Some of them were gorgeous but I found that the gala this year sort of fell flat.

The one that stands out to me the most is Miranda Kerr - she looks sooo adorable.
