Stella McCartney – not yet available

Individually, I don’t dislike any of the pieces here. And if you know anything about me, you may have guessed that those strappy minimalist sandals were where my eyes immediately zoomed and loved.

But together? To me, none of these pieces speak to one another. There is no harmony or connection between a burgundy sequinned turtleneck, zippered khaki and hot pink pants, and chain t strap sandals. It was a disjointed lewk for me, personally.

That said, I think just one switch out those pants to a pair of leather shorts like these YSL ones Taylor previously wore would have helped immensely.

As I personally suspected upon seeing the images, according to an article via People, Taylor styled herself — hair and makeup included. 

Get the look: Top ($73), Pants ($39), Heels ($145)

Brian Atwood ‘Tribeca Leather Platform Sandals’ – $895.00 

I’m relieved to see we actually get a decent look at Taylor’s shoes for the night — a fierce metallic pair of Brian Atwood ankle-strap platforms. Silver over bronze would have been my pick.

Reem Acra Spring 2015

My first thought was: Wow it looks like her Azzaro and Kaufmanfranco dresses had a full-length lovechild. 

My second thought was: This is a rather underwhelming gown to wear for a milestone achievement award.

I guess perhaps I was hoping for something far grander than this minty cutout gown which marries parts of both of those aforementioned dresses. Something with a bit more drama and extravagance. Though perhaps it’s understandable she would want to be a bit more low-key at an event for a genre of music she no longer associates with. And the shade is nonetheless beautiful on her.

Still, this was a milestone achievement award she’s meant to receive and I think a little bit more flair should have been served up for tonight.
