The Best And The Worst Looks From The Met Gala, 2018
TIME

The theme of the 2018 Met Gala, the most popular celebrity event of the year, was “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination.” As usual, many celebrities exceeded expectations with their outfit choices, while others were rather underwhelming.

Best Looks

1. Lana Del Rey

Lana Del Rey arrived at the Met Gala wearing a Gucci gown as well as a chest plate and a headpiece that reflected the Catholic figure Our Lady of Sorrows.

2. Zendaya

Zendaya channeled Joan of Arc in her Met Gala outfit which featured a custom Versace dress and Tiffany & Co. jewelry styled by Law Roach.

3. Blake Lively

Lively wore a custom Versace dress to the gala which featured heavenly embroidery and bedazzlement.

4. Chadwick Boseman

Chadwick Boseman proved to all male celebrities that men can work a Met theme, too. He wore an ivory suit with an embellished cape that perfectly fit the theme, as well as gold shoes.

5. Rihanna

Rihanna’s outfit, inspired by the Pope, was a sure winner. She sported a Margiela gown with a matching beaded bishop’s hat.

6. Letitia Wright

Letitia Wright, who starred in the movie Black Panther, channeled her Ethiopian Christian faith in a Coach gown with embroidered Ethiopian crosses.

7. Ariana Grande

Ariana Grande’s show-stopper dress by Vera Wang featured the painting “The Last Judgment” by Michelangelo that can be found on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel.

8. Lily Collins

Lily Collins’ look for the gala was inspired by the occult. Collins’ stylist said the red teardrop on her face was representative of “the tears of the virgins.”

Worst Looks

1. Kylie Jenner

Kylie Jenner’s Alexander Wang dress was stunning, but it did not match the theme of the gala.

2. Selena Gomez

The custom Coach gown that Selena Gomez sported was cute, but her spray tan definitely was not.

3. Kendall Jenner

Kendall Jenner’s outfit, though daring for a normal event, was underwhelming for the Met Gala and did not seem to fit the theme.

4. Shawn Mendes

Shawn Mendes, like most men at the Met Gala, do not feel compelled to dress to the theme. Fortunately, Chadwick Boseman challenged this norm, as aforementioned, so maybe we will be pleasantly surprised by men at the 2019 Met Gala.

5. Shailene Woodley

Shailene Woodley, like Zendaya, attempted to channel Joan of Arc, but I think it’s safe to say Woodley lost that contest.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
