Fug File: polka dots

Well Played, Michelle Williams


It’s SLOW out there right now. All the celebs are in hiding, prepping for Fashion Week or the Toronto Film Festival or doing some weird juice fast for the Emmys that makes them incapable of rising from their oxygenated sleep tanks. So we must pounce on them while they do things like pick up Matilda Ledger from school and take her to get In N Out and ice cream:

I should look so polished when I’m walking around getting cheeseburgers and ice cream. Also, file this under: Better In Sunglasses, Everyone Looks. But I really just included this picture because Jason looks so interested in Matilda and I think that’s sweet. I am weirdly invested in this relationship.

Let’s take a closer look at Michelle.

Boredly Played, Zooey Deschanel?


It’s not so much that I don’t like this — the dress is fine, although let’s be frank, the nylons and the shoes are fired; no, it’s that the photo cracks me up.

The expression on her face says to me, “God, WHY did I have to cleave to this NICE-GIRL persona? Why do I have to be all CHEERFUL now all the time? What was I thinking? Just ONCE I want to put on a raging case of bitchface and wear a dress made of knives and run over someone’s FOOT with a MOTORCYCLE. Instead it’s all polka-dots and party dresses and YAY WHERE’S MY UKULELE and I swear to GOD when New Girl is over I am going to turn into Angelina Jolie.”

Oscars Fug Carpet: Elizabeth Banks


I want to like this. I really do!

But it looks like someone was in the middle of plucking her, but got distracted and wandered off.  I guess when faced with the choice to go to the event half-plucked, or to go pluck herself, she chose the less labor-intensive option. Can’t say I blame her.

The Fug With the Dragon Fugtoo


Do you think Noomi Rapace is irked that they’re remaking the whole Girl With the Dragon Tattoo trilogy when, by all accounts, she was AWESOME in the Swedish/Danish version? Or do you think she’s all, “big deal, I’m hanging out with Robert Downey Jr now, suckers.”

Or is she too busy worrying about what she’s wearing here? There is a part of me that doesn’t hate this — I would absolutely put a polka dotted pillow on a striped chair, for example. But there are things I would put on a chair, and things I would put on my body, and the overlap there isn’t huge. (Sequins. The overlap is sequins.)

Fug or Fab: Milla Jovovich


As you guys know, I love me some polka dots:

And I have a tendency to want to dress like your slightly crazy aunt. Ergo, I love this — although I sort of wish she had added a belt of some kind. But I realize this may just be my Polka Dot Mania at work (I’m sure there’s a term for that in the DSM-IV).

ERGO. It's up to you to make the decisions today:

Unfug It Up: Emma Stone


It’s not strictly that I OBJECT to looking like a Dalmatian.

I just wonder if there are more flattering ways to DO it. Like, say, actually being a Dalmatian. Take a look at it up close:
