She has a super star actress glow about her.. A mixture of Rita Hayworth and Ava Gardner. That's what I see when I look at her, here. I don't think she does it deliberately though. It's just that glow about her
Looking forward to seeing more.. Thanks for the update, lil!

Awe she looks sooo cute.

And Thakoon is so tiny

no problem! Im sure we'll see more as they come in...... she does look heavenly....

I like how she is not too heavy on the makeup, no accessories, its the dress thats the wow factor here.....

I agree, the dress is stunning!!!
However, I'm not a big fan of her hair
I love her hair curly/wavy but it's still good to see her change it up abit

There are more pictures on MySpace.com/Riley Keough and Riley-Keough.net if you guys wanna check them out. I don't have time to upload at the moment so I thought I'd let everyone know and have a look themselves!!

Riley Keough and her designer date Thakoon, on the way to the Costume Institute Gala!

I found this from riley-keough.net
It's like a diary entry from Riley
Not sure where they got it from but it's pretty cool:

The Met Ball was beautiful.

On Saturday afternoon, I went to Thakoon’s studio for a fitting. We spent an hour fitting the dress and discussing what he wanted for hair, makeup and whatever else. The day of the Met, the dress was delivered to my hotel and I got ready. Thakoon picked me up for the night, as a true gentleman should! When we arrived, we walked the carpet together (Thakoon held my cell phone in his pocket because I had no bag!). The event itself was loads fun and really inspiring – Anna Wintour and Oprah looked beautiful. We sat at one of the Gap tables where I was in between Thakoon and Jessica Stam. Jess and I got to dance with Oprah while Lady Gaga performed which was pretty incredible!

When it ended, we went to the after parties at the Mark Hotel and the Standard and had a wonderful night! ~ Riley Keough

it was blogged on Modelinia..... since it was posted there then its okay, i wouldnt want a personal diary of hers posted, lol..... but thats cool that she gets a little star struck by Lady Gaga, well who wouldnt i guess!!

ya know looking at that design sketch above, i would've liked to seen Rileys hair slicked back like that, more elegant then what they did with it......

(from that auction site you posted yada, we missed this one)
