Best Dressed at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner

Chrissy Teigen Best Dressed at the White House Correspondents' Dinner

On Saturday hundreds attended the White House Correspondents’ Dinner but only a few wow-ed on the red carpet. I have seen articles about the evening for years but it was not until yesterday did I learn the true purpose, it is an event to celebrate excellence in reporting on the White House–the use of journalism as a way of speaking truth to power according to Rolling Stone.  This year guest list was very, very varied and I was so surprised to see so many unusual faces on a red carpet, from media magnets like Donald Trump and Martha Stewart, to actresses I have not seen in years like Jennifer Coolidge from Legally Blonde or Kelly Rutherford and Michelle Trachtenberg, who I only see on Gossip Girl reruns. 

I saw one headline that read “Supermodels Top White House Correspondents Weekend” and I don’t disagree, a handful of models stunned this weekend making the regular mortals look, well, regular. Besides my i-wish-she-was-my- best friend Chrissy (and her lovable stretchies) these are my best dressed attendees from Saturday’s event:

In contrast to most of the best dressed lists I have seen I did not think the FLOTUS’ Zac Posen gown was worthy of the list.  (All images from here, here, and here.)  To cap off the recap I just had to share this photo of my main girl in this behind the scenes photo – John Legend, Chrissy Teigen, and Senator Amy Klobuchar at the Vanity Fair White House Correspondents’ Dinner after party.

    Chanel Iman looks flawless. I love Chrissy Teigan, but I think that slit is just too high!!
