Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Sofia’s Princess Leia buns Sofia Vergara in the same dress she always wears, or a version of it anyway, and Princess Leia buns. Weak Leia buns? I feel like this was a modification to make it more red carpet appropriate. And that’s why the result is so limp. Pffft. Everyone knows the Leia By Lainey • Dec 15, 2015 04:18 pm
Leonardo DiCaprio Celebrating Bryan Cranston We learned last week following the SAG and Golden Globe nominations that, right now, Bryan Cranston could be a legitimate challenger to Leonardo DiCaprio for Best Actor.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Zendaya’s sweater-skirt combination OK I love this. First of all, I love grey turtleneck, thank you Drake. Note that this is a long grey turtleneck tucked into a sheer beaded (plastic) skirt so that it acts like the lining – for decency. Clever, non? So clever! By Lainey • Dec 15, 2015 01:31 pm
Star Wars The Force is strong with her They wanted to go with two unknowns for the new Star Wars. We’ve already discussed John Boyega, showing up last night in purple and swag.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Elizabeth’s off-the-shoulder pockets I’m not sure I love the print but I’m definitely full-up into the rest. You’ll always get me with an off-the-shoulder and it tapers at the waist just right. The pockets are a great finish too. By Lainey • Dec 15, 2015 11:42 am

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Lupita’s Star Wars sparkle Everybody dressed for last night like it was the Oscars. It is, or will be, after all, the biggest movie of all time.

Star Wars This used to be my boyfriend Oh come on. You didn’t have a crush on Luke Skywalker? Fine. I did. Bad. In a pre-puberty way, I think, but still, it was a crush. Look at him back then!
