Last night, fashion's fiercest icons walked the pink carpet at the 2019 Met Gala — and I may never recover from all the OTT ~lewks~ put on display. (It is a museum, after all, and these beauty statements are actual works of art IMO.)

But my favorite trends of the evening don't need to be coupled up with a couture gown: From bold blush to blingy braids, the evening offered endless inspiration for elevating your everyday beauty vibe.

Here's a quick round-up of ideas we'll be implementing immediately....

1. Zendaya's fairytale headband
Break out your Blair Waldorf 'bands — because the thick, classic hair staple is here to stay (and slay).

2. Lili's bold blushbomb
Overly-accentuated cheeks are the ultimate way to elevate your apples.

3. Gigi's next-level lashes
Whether it's through falsies or a majorly volumizing mascara, we're eyeing fierce fringe.

5. Elle's decked-out digits
Suddenly extremely interested in trying these 3D nail art stickers.

5. Ashley's pin-worthy pony
Give us all the barettes. All the clips. All the bobbies. ALL THE BLING.
