I am definitely a fan girl of Blake Lively and her stunning head of hair. Not to mention, I’ve always been team Ryan Reynolds (versus Gosling – I know… don’t shoot me). I’ve always admired her work and I have certainly become a L’Oreal fan over the years. In fact, I just featured my new favorite hair styling product from them last week.

Blake Lively and NARS at Metropolitan Museum’s Costume Institute Gala 2013
After sifting through some beautiful and other more “interesting” looks from last night’s Metropolitan Museum’s Costume Institute Gala, I am left with a true respect for artistry. While some of the looks I found frankly unattractive, I appreciated the punk theme inspired by the Met’s newest exhibit, PUNK: Chaos to Couture. Makeup artists were really allowed to show creativity and unique styles, albeit some not really great for everyday wear. One look I wouldn’t hesitate to try for an evening out is is Blake Lively’s.
NARS and celebrity makeup artist Elaine Offers was first inspired by “Blake’s signature approach: luminous beautiful skin.” The more dramatic and serious eye was a “nod to the punk theme”. Thanks to her layered and gauzy skirt, the overall look is “both glamorous and edgy.”
