It’s time to reflect.

No awards show would be complete without a little shimmer and shine, and the stars delivered at the MTV VMAs in New York on Monday night.

Dressed in silver, stars including Karlie Kloss, Ashanti, Ariana Grande and Jennifer Lopez upped the glamour factor at the awards show, where anything goes in terms of fashion (we’re looking at you, Amber Rose, in your fiery-red she-devil look).

Styled by Rob Zangardi and Mariel Haenn, Jennifer Lopez — who performed and accepted the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award later in the evening — looked every part a goddess in a metallic Versace gown with a playful thigh-high slit, amplified with sparkling bracelets, rings and seven-carat earrings from Tiffany & Co.

Karlie Kloss made an equally high-wattage statement in a strappy Elie Saab look paired with a reflective Judith Leiber clutch, styled by Karla Welch.

New Mom Cardi B Steps Out Wearing 200 Carats of Emeralds to the VMAs

New baby, new me.

New mama Cardi B is coming back a new woman.

This year’s VMAs mark the rapper’s big comeback as her first red-carpet event post-pregnancy — completed by more than 200 carats of Colombian emeralds from Lorraine Schwartz (including earrings and a huge ring) and a pixie haircut to match.

Cardi stepped onto the VMAs red carpet wearing a custom, fuchsia Nicolas Jebran gown; the velvet, strapless couture dress, featuring a high slit and single sleeve, looked almost as regal as her embellished Met Gala ensemble by Moschino (both were styled by Kollin Carter).

She posted on Instagram with the caption, “K mom,” while Carter also posted, “Issa Mommy,” celebrating the first major appearance since Cardi gave birth to her first child — Kulture Kiari Cephus — with rapper Offset in July.

Unfortunately, Kulture wasn’t by Cardi’s side on the carpet, where the new mother was rocking her short hair and sultry regal gown.

The “Bodak Yellow” singer performed her hit number at the 2017 VMAs, and while she is opening the show this year, she is not expected to perform, according to Billboard. Since her splash last year, Cardi B has also graced the stage of Coachella and dropped her debut album Invasion of Privacy in April.
