Emma Roberts: MET Gala Black Beauty

A Roberts was spotted attending the MET Gala a few weeks ago, and nope it wasn’t Julia. It was her lovely niece, Emma Roberts.

I know Emma is no longer a tween, but she still looks like it; such a tiny frame of a girl if you know what I mean.

The young celeb was one of the few who kept it short and sweet at the MET Gala. She stayed true to her age in an all-black bow detailed drop waist number by Marni paired with a bejeweled belt and a set of classic black round toe platform Mary Jane pumps.

The look was very clean. However, I do think the bow on her dress was warring with the bejeweled belt. She should have kept the statement  piece  to one. It’s a good thing the dress was black.

Oscar award winning actress Anna Paquin was spotted at the Valentino Cocktail Party held in West Hollywood last April 28th.

The True Blood beauty wore a black and tangerine beaded number and a pair of vintage inspired satin-covered round toe Mary Jane pumps.

The look was simple and elegant, but it was definitely striking, especially with her pale skin and golden hair.

Check out this picture of America Ferrera, Ana Ortiz, and Becki Newton shooting a scene for Ugly Betty in New York…Now look further past the wardrobe down to their footwear, notice anything?

The cast of Ugly Betty (America Ferrera, Ana Ortiz, and Becki Newton) shooting a scene in New York last March 2

All three are wearing Mary Janes!

It looks like the show’s costume designer was in Mary Jane mode when she dressed up these three for the scene.

The designer chose a pair of retro-inspired printed Mary Jane Wedge Pumps for America Ferrera’s Betty; a pair of black classic heeled Mary Jane pumps  for Becki’s Amanda; and although she chose a pair of Mary Jane inspired knee-high boots for Ana Ortiz’s Hilda character, those knee-high numbers definitely look like Mary Janes with a million straps from afar.

Now among the three Ugly Betty characters, whose Mary Jane style do you like best?

I took the liberty of picking out more Mary Jane shoe styles  that would probably suit each of the character’s persona based on this scene. Let me know what you think of my choices.
