Blake Lively Obviously Means Business in Her Monochrome VMAs Outfit

Updated on Aug 21, 2018 at 9:20 PM

May I have your attention, please? Blake Lively's 2018 MTV VMAs ensemble deserves a second look. The 30-year-old actress waltzed onto the pink carpet on Aug. 20, decked out in the most unexpected outfit: a white Ralph & Russo suit with sparkling lapels, a high-neck button-up top, and satin Christian Louboutin platform heels. While other attendees were donning naked dresses, Blake took a more modest route with her monochrome outfit.

She's been on quite a fashion spree lately while promoting her upcoming film, A Simple Favor. Think this could be a nod to her stylish and mysterious character, Emily? Check out more snaps of Blake's sophisticated look ahead, from all angles.
