Media Manipulation Michael Fassbender, comedy guy? After a huge 2011 and a hot start to 2012, Michael Fassbender is on a down beat, with nothing coming out for months and nothing to do but work and I don’t know…throw rocks at fish, or whatever he does for fun.

Lifestyle London Fashion Week: Marios Schwab SS2013 Does it seem like a really fussy collection? Maybe it’s the shoes throwing me off and all that business flinging itself everywhere down below, taking attention away from the clothing which is already rather intricate. Too much, I think. And totally Kanye West’s girlfriend, right? By Lainey • Sep 17, 2012 01:11 pm
Gorgessity Keira covers Vogue less seriously I remember a writing about Keira Knightley a few years ago, back when she was all morose and dark t-shirty, stuck in that predictable phase they all go through between 20 and 25 when everything seems so bleak and every day is a suicide song. Naturally I got shouted down By Lainey • Sep 17, 2012 12:59 pm
Lifestyle London Fashion Week: Jonathan Saunders SS2013 Princess Catherine just wore Jonathan Saunders the other day on her tour. One of his tamer pieces, obviously.

Girly Throw Downs Mrs Reynolds is back at work First pictures of Blake Lively since she scooped the whole world last week, marrying Ryan Reynolds in South Carolina last Sunday, surprising everyone including PEOPLE Magazine which found itself in an unfamiliar position: not only not having a celebrity wedding exclusive but not even being invited to the party in By Lainey • Sep 17, 2012 11:42 am
Lifestyle London Fashion Week: Nicole Farhi SS2013 A collection that is unapologetically neutral, and it reminds me of some of the classic Calvin Klein pieces from the late 80s and 90s. I love it all. By Lainey • Sep 17, 2012 11:19 am
Girly Throw Downs A piece of sh-t on her mountain top Oh but this is rich. As you’ve probably heard, Amanda Bynes keeps crashing her car into other people’s cars. TMZ reports that Bynes is exhibiting signs of deteriorating mental health. And here’s what Lindsay Lohan posted to Twitter yesterday: Why did I get put in jail and By Lainey • Sep 17, 2012 10:52 am
Movie Reviews and Previews TIFF REVIEW: BAD 25 Until I saw this film on the TIFF schedule, I didn’t even know it existed. But damn am I glad it does. Bad 25 is a fantastic documentary – a Spike Lee Joint – that takes you on an intimate tour behind the scenes during the making of Michael Jackson’s By Dan • Sep 17, 2012 10:42 am
Lifestyle London Fashion Week: Matthew Williamson SS 2013 Has the buzz around Matthew Williamson receded over the last few years? Sienna Miller was all over it a while ago and now, I dunno, it’s like the air has been let out. Also I feel like maybe he keeps doing the same. Just me? By Lainey • Sep 17, 2012 10:26 am
Royals Will & Kate: piglets and a topless greeting I’m not smart enough to make a clever comment about the irony (is it?) of them being greeted by topless locals as they’re involved in their own topless drama back in Europe but here they are, the Cambridges, touring the Solomon Islands, looking unbothered by the fact that By Lainey • Sep 17, 2012 10:12 am

Lifestyle London Fashion Week: Temperley SS 2013 A lot of options here for Catherine Cambridge and her sister Pippa although if I were Temperley I wouldn’t be so excited about the prospect of Pippa wearing my clothes. That girl can really downgrade a design. By Lainey • Sep 17, 2012 09:20 am
Lifestyle London Fashion Week: Issa London SS2013 When was the last time Catherine of William wore Issa? Certain pieces in this collection seem as though they were designed with the Cambridges’s current trip in mind. Prints can be tricky; it’s a fine line between cool and tacky. I feel like maybe some of this might By Lainey • Sep 17, 2012 09:09 am
Lifestyle London Fashion Week: House of Holland SS2013 There’s a sheer purple blouse with a peter pan collar that’s paired underneath some rainbow coveralls that I’m trying to figure out how to incorporate into my wardrobe. I also love the yellow dress with the mismatched straps and all that messy draping across the front. The By Lainey • Sep 17, 2012 08:48 am
