Fugger: Katie Cassidy

Unfug or Fab: Katie Cassidy

The longer I looked at this, the more I had doubts.

The skirt is cute. The shoes are actually Amanda Woodward-style mules rather than booties (maybe she learned it from Heather Locklear when they did the new Melrose Place), which is a trend I’d be happy to leave in 1994, along with my green velvet Doc Marten boots — okay, I still have those, but just for souvenir purposes I PROMISE — and all of Grade 11 biology. But the trip wire here for me is the shirt. I don’t mind the pattern really, but something about the cut and the way it’s tucked right in makes it look to me like she’s wearing a skirt over a bathing suit. It’s not quite gelling. OR IS IT? That’s where you come in: Is it fine as-is? Do you wish you could somehow recut the shirt so that it all comes together differently? Would you replace the shirt altogether, or blazer it up, or put on the mules with a teeny tiny mini-skirt and go out and try to ruin someone’s life? Pray, discuss.

Listen. We may say a lot of things about Zoe Hart’s habit of practicing medicine in formal shorts, or about our theory that Lemon Breeland walked through a warp hole in 1940 and decided to stay in rural Alabama because of all the amazing advances the world had made in technology and feminine-hygiene products. But we are as happy as anyone that Hart of Dixie is renewed, because seriously, if any of the aforementioned fashion issues disappeared from our screens AND we were denied Hot Neighbor Wade and Jason Street and Mayor Lavon Hayes and a parade of attractive male guest stars? NOT OKAY. Plus, Jaime King has been turning out the wacky wear now that she’s promoting a network show, and I would be bereft without all those associated feelings of bafflement. So BRING IT, LADIES. Our arms are open with the tough-love hugs.

Fug and Fab the Miu Miu Party

The Miu Miu party from the other night was chock full of people, most of them slightly random — like, there was Hailee Steinfeld and Shannon Woodward, and then the likes of Ashley Tisdale and Malin Akerman and Leslie Bibb. Just all over the map. And then there’s this young lady. I have a hard time telling apart the buxom blonde actresses Alice Eve (best known Stateside as Braless Nanny in the second Sex and the City movie) and Rachael Taylor (the new Charlie’s Angels). But now I can keep them straight: Rachael is the one who was just hooking up with Justin Chambers on Grey’s Anatomy, and Alice Eve is the one herepictured who is apparently right this second filming a movie where she plays he OBVIOUSLY mousy librarian who is only truly liberated when she removes her glasses. It is called Dewey Seximal System, and it probably co-stars, like, Johnny Knoxville and Simon Rex.

Not everybody looked quite so much like a caricature, though. Let’s see what they brought. JOIN ME.

MTV Movie Awards Fug Carpet/CFDA Fine Carpet: Katie Cassidy

Jun 7, 2011 By Jessica AT 10:00 am

I miss Katie Cassidy:

She was so brilliant on Melrose Place: Take Two. And then Gossip Girl kind of misused her — don’t get me wrong, she herself was fine, but the reveal of the motivation for her plot line was so drawn out that I started to wonder if I had missed the episode where they explained why she was being such a weirdo. And then her new pilot didn’t get picked up. Someone, please give her a job. At the very least, so she will stop wearing lanyards out in public.

Fug or Fab: Katie Cassidy

I really like Katie Cassidy:

I thought she was far and away the best thing about the Melrose Place reboot — with the exception of Michael Mancini, who is never not awesome — and I like her on Gossip Girl, even though they dragged out the mystery of why she was trying to ruin Serena’s life for about six weeks too long, to the point where I actually started wondering if I missed an episode that explained what her damage was. Also a problem with that plot: all the tertiary dudes on Gossip Girl are identical, like a pasty selection of  lesser Nate Archibalds, so every time she went to visit her brother in the slammer, I wondered if I was supposed to remember him or not.  Like, seriously, how I am supposed to tell these two apart?

THEY ARE BASICALLY THE SAME DUDE.

Anyway, to sum up: Katie Cassidy is good, and her dress looks very sexy, doesn’t it? Let’s see the rest of it:

IS IT SCANDALOUS?

People’s Choice Award Fug or Fab Carpet: Katie Cassidy

Jan 7, 2010 By Jessica AT 9:05 am

Okay, first and foremost, this is the part where I note that I LOVE Katie Cassidy on Melrose Place, and if that show gets canceled — which I hope it does not, because it’s actually kind of awesome — she better get another job, because she’s rad.

And this is the part where I note that I am already over the Long Extension-Filled Braid look — it’s so Chloe Sevigny on Big Love, and while the Sev is literally so freaking genius on that show that it has made me look at her wacktacular red carpet ensembles with a whole new fondness, dressing like her Big Love character is NOT A GOOD IDEA — and her dress looks like an anemic cocktail frock that got in a fight with a whole packet of those little sticky-tab-y things that lawyers and accountants stick on documents to note where you need to put your John Hancock — or your Jane Hancock, I guess. Don’t get me wrong: I LOVE office supplies. Sincerely. Buying new notebooks and pencils was always my favorite part of back-to-school shopping. (At least, it was after I started having to wear a uniform and there were no longer clothes to buy. Remind me to tell you guys, some time, the way I decided I was going to sue the school for infringing on our collective intellectual property rights by forcing us to wear uniforms, and how after about a week I decided that was idiotic because uniforms are both cute and deliciously easy. I then decided to sue the school for invasion of privacy when they instituted random locker checks, which I never got around to doing, but which I still feel was a stronger case. Yes, I was a handful. What the HELL was I even talking about?)

Oh, Katie. Right. Well, I was all set to put this to a vote, but I clearly talked myself into voting AGAINST, even if I do treasure her. Still, no reason for me to infringe on your right to your vote:
