The interior peplum gives her more of a figure, instead of being straight up and down.<br /><br />I love that she is always wearing a JCrew piece, even if it was highly retailored. Love that she left the glasses at home, her hair and makeup are fab, she looks gorgeous.Kelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15696954939131538085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-19797181894875474762012-07-11T23:25:23.122-04:002012-07-11T23:25:23.122-04:00I love it and would wear it everywhere (like I do ...I love it and would wear it everywhere (like I do all my clothes)Marisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03076761976569538638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-72179551133770138102012-07-11T21:57:45.717-04:002012-07-11T21:57:45.717-04:00This outfit made several worst lists and I agree. ...This outfit made several worst lists and I agree. I like her style during "less-formal" events but she seems to always miss the mark at the Met balls. Last year her sweater and long skirt ensemble was shapeless and boring. This year she tried a more structured look but the outfit is ill-fitting. A close look of her outfit shows the jacket is too tight & almost gapping while the skirt made her hips look wide. I would never have guessed this was custom-made at all because of the bad fit.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02708265736473324024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-3206348239528637692012-07-11T21:06:34.596-04:002012-07-11T21:06:34.596-04:00this is very her - it is true to her style. if she...this is very her - it is true to her style. if she had switched to another dressier blouse i think it would have been perfect for the occasion.phiphis bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16530962364891572447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-51184009843784302652012-07-11T20:20:01.710-04:002012-07-11T20:20:01.710-04:00I"m not that impresssed. I understand her no...I"m not that impresssed. I understand her nod to Schiaparelli pink but she would be turning over in her elegant grace if she saw this paired with denim as trying to pass off as a ball gown. Call me old school but there is a time and place for a certain amount of sartorial respect and the Met Ball is one of them, Besides, she has anything at her disposal- why go to such lenghts? She has the bearing and stature for almost anything but this is a definite miss. At least she left her costumey glasses at home. THey have been around too long- I see them on middle school girls now- time for a new trend!!MJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06607661595005591630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-75094979584653135122012-07-11T15:09:35.555-04:002012-07-11T15:09:35.555-04:00Call me a traditionalist (or just old, or lame), b...Call me a traditionalist (or just old, or lame), but I think denim is too casual a fabric for the Met Ball. She says "I'm me" as a way to explain her non-satin fabric choice, but did she have to go with the other extreme?emilybethzzzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07704219604662674050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-65138580766583832762012-07-11T12:57:55.388-04:002012-07-11T12:57:55.388-04:00I do like it -- on her.

And if I did, the skirt would have to be cut down to be a mini and I wouldn't wear the jacket as a shirt, but left as a jacket and thown on over a white or black tank. But I'm boring, and that's why I don't have her job, LOL. <br /><br />I also like that she thoughtfully chose the bright pink as a nod to Schiaparelli.Elainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00193483506777142971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-46937792642177988652012-07-11T11:02:17.808-04:002012-07-11T11:02:17.808-04:00WFF, you are a crackup.WFF, you are a crackup.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06119918515498248436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-35671517733408558192012-07-11T09:00:17.337-04:002012-07-11T09:00:17.337-04:00I am just envious that she has a custom shirt make...I am just envious that she has a custom shirt maker:)Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12773160182688791338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-74782486115041506402012-07-11T06:24:43.758-04:002012-07-11T06:24:43.758-04:00Yes, please, a little support would be uplifting.Yes, please, a little support would be uplifting.wellfedfredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07118802089389931227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-72692046501736550132012-07-11T03:58:38.682-04:002012-07-11T03:58:38.682-04:00I have another photo of Jenna from this event that...I have another photo of Jenna from this event that I shared in <a href="http://fabulousfloridamommy.blogspot.com/2012/05/little-this-little-that_10.html" rel="nofollow">this</a> post a couple months ago.

I've seen it done with button-on pieces on a sweater but never a jean jacket. You would have to keep it buttoned but I'd wear something like that. <br /><br />Wondering why did she take a coworker and not her gal pal to the event. None of my business of course, just wondering aloud.xoxohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12336645422459479330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-32055368443658665742012-07-11T01:14:12.893-04:002012-07-11T01:14:12.893-04:00No. It not the least bit flattering - on her or a...No. It not the least bit flattering - on her or anyone else.The Handbag Aficionadohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17067047928710696409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-50473303910118436172012-07-11T00:26:13.654-04:002012-07-11T00:26:13.654-04:00I like this outfit on her and laughed at the line ...I like this outfit on her and laughed at the line "I am who I am."Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05184724930345348154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-72623777489165808992012-07-11T00:23:50.783-04:002012-07-11T00:23:50.783-04:00Not the biggest fan of the outfit herself but it&#...Not the biggest fan of the outfit herself but it's very "her".
