There were so many amazing outfits this year! I think Ivanka Trump's dress is the best though!

Love Ivanka Trump's dress! It is so beautiful!The caption is perfect! Brain Reyes is an amazing designer, i absolutely love his stuff and cannot wait to see Resort collection!

I adored Ivanka's look too. As for Leighton, she really disappointed me. I mean with access to Blair Waldorf's gowns she chose that? Her stylist must HATE her, LOL.
