What Else What Else? This is a message for my husband: we need a cat. There’s a fat ass raccoon who camps out on our deck in the winter and we have two dogs. One of them is all big and bad when he’s downstairs, away from the raccoon. The minute he By Lainey • Nov 20, 2018 05:20 pm

I feel for parents at the grocery store when this happens – when their child throws themselves on the floor during a tantrum and the mom or dad is trying to deal with the shopping and the embarrassment and the kid screaming its head off. When it happens in the driveway By Lainey • Nov 19, 2018 04:36 pm
Award Season Campaigning Constance, Michelle, and co: Team Crazy Rich Asians at the Governors Awards There aren’t usually this many Asians at Oscar events. Because there aren’t usually all-Asian casts in Hollywood. Crazy Rich Asians came out in August. It’s one of the most successful movies of the year. It does actually have an outside shot at a couple of nominations, including By Lainey • Nov 19, 2018 03:35 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Lily is regal at the Governors Awards I don’t think if this outfit was on a hanger I would give it a second look. The off-the-shoulder top isn’t my thing.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Saoirse’s Governors white I love a slinky turtleneck dress. But it’s tricky. A turtleneck can pull. And depending on the material, all that pulling can look weird in the light. Saoirse Ronan’s is white. And despite some fit issues, which you can clearly see, it’s a strong look.
