Dearest Chastain, this is how you fit a sleek dress. Please give Amanda’s people a call. Or specifically, one Zac Posen.

Amusingly, And Nearly Well, Played: Katy Perry

Nov 28, 2012 By Heather AT 11:00 am

It’s nice to see Katy Perry with regular hair and human makeup, as it feels like those moments have been few and far between since she jettisoned Russell Brand.

But listen, it’s going to be hard to pull off a cape with as much grace and panache as Gwyneth did at the Oscars. This looks like part ofan old negligee set she ripped apart after Hulking out over a Liz & Dick rerun. But at the same time, there’s something hilariously melodramatic about it — I mean, I CAN imagine her swanning around her house with that thing tied up under her chin, swilling a martini and hissing something about sins of omission, and I bet she had fun swooshing through the party. Plus, the dress underneath has potential. I’m afraid it might only be lined just above her chest and barely past her crotch, but if it went all the way down (and even as-is), it could be truly lovely. So I’m giggling about the amusing novelty cape she’s taped to her delts, pleased that she’d attempting glamour underneath it, and very, very curious whether she’s still dating John Mayer, because seriously, how does that guy DO IT? Is his tongue made of Diet Coke or something?

Fug or Fab: Kristin Scott Thomas

Oct 31, 2011 By Jessica AT 9:00 am

I really do love Kristin Scott Thomas:

Remember the end of Four Weddings and a Funeral, wherein it is revealed that her character ends up with Prince Charles? I wish they’d go back and re-master that movie — it was, after all, fifteen years old this year (yes, we’re all old) — and re-jigger that part so that she instead ends up with Prince Harry. Her character is so cool in that movie, and stupid Hugh Grant still ends up with Andie McDowell. This, of course, is only a problem because Andie McDowell is truly wretched in that movie. I guarantee the following: Gather a group of reasonably pop-culture-savvy thirtysomething year old women and ask them to name the most poorly delivered line in the history of the romantic comedy. They will chorus, “is it raining? I hadn’t noticed.” I promise you.

ANYWAY. Like her fellow three-named Brit actress Helena Bonham Carter, KST seems pretty awesome. She got to roll around in a bathtub with Ralph Fiennes at the height of his hotness, for one thing.  And so I wish this dress did her more justice. She is classy-looking and very gamine and it just feels old.

HOWEVER. It feels entirely different under different lights. BEHOLD:

Well Played, Camilla Belle

Oct 26, 2011 By Jessica AT 10:00 am

I was all set to put this particular look up for a vote, but then I ended up talking myself into loving it:

I think the bottom is a little weird — the beading is amazing, so the ruffles feel superfluous, and also kind of make the dress look hairy, which is not GENERALLY the way you want your dress to look, unless you’re going to a birthday party for Chewbacca — but on this whole I think this is, as Victoria Beckham would say, if we were friends, which we are in my head, MAJOR.

Let’s all just squint our eyes and pretend that we’re all living in an alternative universe where this is actually Jessica Simpson:

Feels better, doesn’t it?

Kate and Wills went to Victoria Barracks in Windsor (so not too far of a haul), where they presented medals to veterans of the Irish Guard, home from Afghanistan, on Armed Forces Day. And: (A) she’s easily the best thing that’s happened to the Royal Family since William’s mother (and probably better, considering that I don’t think there are going to be nearly as many regrets about this union as there were about hers), and (B) HOW MANY AWESOME COATS DOES THIS GIRL HAVE?
