Blake Lively is a hot commodity in Hollywood right now. From being the face of Chanel to appearing on magazine covers everywhere, she’s one starlet that the fashion world loves. Lively recently got married in a secret ceremony to Ryan Reynolds, and since the event she’s been notably absent on the red carpet…until last night, when she stepped out in the above satin gown. So was it a great choice to make her first post-wedding appearance in, or should she have gone with something else? 

I like the dress in theory, but the details throw me off. Satin isn’t a good material for a non-solid dress, and here it distracts from the other aspects of the gown, like the pink panels. The one thing it doesn’t distract from, however, is that gaudy rhinestone detail on the back. It’s so prom dress-y, and not in a good way. Sorry, Blake; this could have been a hit, but as is it’s a miss!

Hit or miss, Lovelies?
