It's not hard to understand why celebrities and their stylists tend to focus more of their efforts on red carpet outfits versus after-party looks. A flashy movie premiere will have dozens of photographers and reporters lined up along the red carpet, guaranteeing a certain amount of press. On the other hand, after-parties don't get nearly the same amount of eyeballs and might not even garner media attention at all.
That said, sometimes I prefer to report on after-parties because the chill environment can result in better fashion moments, as is the case today. At the red carpet premiere of her upcoming film, Another Simple Favor, Blake Lively wore a beautiful mint-colored Tamara Ralph gown. It was a striking choice, but I loved her after-party look even more. After the premiere, she changed into a butter-yellow T-shirt and matching satin skirt. Not only does her outfit hit on a major summer color trend—remember when Timothée Chalamet wore butter yellow at the Oscars?—but it struck the perfect balance between luxurious and laid-back. Scroll down to see her two different looks tonight.
