The Meaning Behind Amanda Gorman's Royal Blue Met Gala Look Is as Beautiful as Her Dress

Amanda Gorman is a vision in blue! She wowed the nation at the presidential inauguration earlier the year with her beautiful poem and gorgeous Prada coat, and she did it again at her first-ever Met Gala Monday night. Wearing a royal blue Vera Wang minidress featuring a dramatic long train adorned with little pearls - as well as matching Stuart Weitzman sandals - the newcomer dazzled on the red carpet.

While Amanda certainly looked incredible, the meaning behind her look is even more beautiful: the dress is inspired by the Statue of Liberty, as is her blue book-shaped clutch. Upon closer viewing, the front of her purse reads "Give us your tired," which is a nod to "The New Colossus" poem on display inside the landmark. See the 23-year-old poet, who's co-chairing the event alongside Timothée Chalamet, Billie Eilish, and Naomi Osaka, posing from all angles ahead.

These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
