Look for Less: 2012 Met Gala

Now that award's season has come and gone, we're left with a stylish void. At least nine "grueling" months of waiting until we're again glued to our screens oohing and aweeeing at the glamorous gowns worn by the rich and famous...but thanks to the annual Met Gala that wait is made all the more bearable.

Last week New York City was set aglow for the 2012 Met Gala held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art!Styles reminiscent of the glamorous days of Old Hollywood, modern metallics, and vibrant shades of citrus, reigned supreme. Check out my favorite red carpet looks from the night and the posh + pennywise version to help you get the look for less!
