The Met Gala was this past Monday, and WOW did everyone really go all out! The theme was "China: Through the looking glass". Usually no one dresses for the theme, but this year there was a good attempt.
Jade
Coming from a jewelers point of view, when I think of "Chinese" jewelry, my first thought is Jade.
The queen of the Met Gala, who is always STUNNING at every red carpet as well as every Met Gala she has even been to, Sarah Jessica Parker.
She is just awesome. SJP was decked out in this great head-dress as well as some beautiful Jade bangles, and one with her initials in diamonds. Very chic!
We also got a beautiful display of some hand carved jade earrings. Supermodel Lily Aldridge was wearing these beauties!

Body Jewelry
Another trend that was unavoidable, and not very Chinese, was the sheer dress with strategically placed jewels/lace. Who needs bling, when your vagay is sparkling and shinning? Who would even notice?
Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez, and Kim Kardashian West. Battle of the booty. Everyone is a winner in this case. |
Diamonds
Of course we saw some beautiful diamonds rock the Met Gala.
Do I really need to caption this? Kim Kardashian West sparkling in these beautiful diamond earrings. |
I am really into this style of earrings. I have seen it done with pearls, gemstones, and diamonds, and its lovely.
More things on your head
If you are not ballsy enough to wear a full on head-dress, then you would probably just wear a giant clip, bunch of flowers, or what is suppose to be a necklace on your head.
