Each year I get so excited to see the dresses that make their way down the carpet at the Met Costume Institute Gala. Celebrating the museum's newest exhibit, American Woman: Fashioning a National Identity, the stars stepped out in a wide palate of neutrals and classic black and white, hinting to the trends taking over 2010. This year my absolute favorite is the Calvin Klein number on Zoe Saldana, she looks fabulous! In a simple black, one shouldered dress, Zoe Saldana evokes the epitome of the elegance we ladies should strive to bare.

Ultimate Expression

I'm sure I've mentioned it at some point, but dancing has been my greatest passion since I was a little girl. I went to The Nutcracker each winter and fell in love year after year. At age 10, my mother took me to see Cats--how they moved their bodies into the most bizarre positions with pure bliss and ease, it completely blew me away.

I was enrolled in classes the very next morning.

I have had a religious-like fervor for the art ever since.

Due to an injury and a terrible back, I have been so limited in dancing the last few years that seeing images as beautiful as this make my heart warm up, and sad a little, too. So often we discuss how the arts are deeply fused within the world of fashion, and it would be naive to say otherwise. Dance has always been my ultimate form of expression and when it is fused with the powerful force of fashion, the outcome is utterly breathtaking.
