Lifestyle NY Fashion Week: Preen Fall 2012 My FAVOURITE collection so far from New York. But then again, I’m biased. I LOVE Preen. Last year I bought a Preen dress for an event, a dress so awesome you can’t repeat with much frequency so at least once a week, I take it out to look By Lainey • Feb 14, 2012 12:49 pm
Gorgessity Happy Valentine’s Day with Pitt Porn I love seeing Brange sit at a dinner table together. They have such sexy body language. After the BAFTAs, Brad Pitt flew back to Germany to be with Angelina Jolie and together they attended the Cinema For Peace gala at the Berlinale last night where she was honoured for her By Lainey • Feb 14, 2012 12:07 pm
Royals The Prince sends flowers The Brink Bar is in Liverpool. It’s an alcohol-free non-profit establishment in support of young people recovering from drug and alcohol addiction. Catherine of Cambridge, the royal patron, was there today on an official charity visit. They created a smoothie in her honour called “The Duchess”. She also received By Lainey • Feb 14, 2012 11:16 am
Lifestyle NY Fashion Week: Marc Jacobs Fall 2012 I guess Marc wants the square toe shoe to come back. Also a very demure collection. High necks, long hemlines, ladylike shapes. Some of these bags are gorgeous. By Lainey • Feb 14, 2012 10:55 am
Lifestyle NY Fashion Week: Jenny Packham Fall 2012 A favourite of Catherine of William Cambridge and, apparently, now also Angelina Jolie. There are a lot of very safe red carpet options here. No doubt you’ll be seeing some of them soon. Can I just say I hate the hair roll and I would never try it and By Lainey • Feb 14, 2012 10:42 am
Intro for February 14, 2012 Dear Gossips, I asked my ma last night at dinner what she was doing today. She said if her throat feels better she’s getting on the bus to go to the casino. Now THAT is romance. Thank you so much for your comments yesterday re the Grammy and BAFTA By Lainey • Feb 14, 2012 10:31 am
Media Manipulation Best BAFTA 2012: Meryl Streep I think this Vivienne Westwood is glorious on her. Magestic. And it's great encouragement too. That a woman of Meryl's merit, maturity, and stature can wear the SH-T out of a designer garment that was originally sent down the runway on an 18 year old genetic By Lainey • Feb 13, 2012 06:57 pm
Media Manipulation Dancing Dujardin Oh it’s work, don’t doubt it. It’s deliberate, don’t doubt that either. But... He is having a good time. And that might be the difference. Jean Dujardin took the SAG and the BAFTA. He’s imitating John Travolta on Jay Leno: He’s being delightful for By Lainey • Feb 13, 2012 06:56 pm
Media Manipulation All the handsome men... Other than Jean Dujardin. Brad Pitt and George Clooney both came without dates. The Jolie stayed back with the children in Berlin and George, perhaps sensing that Stacy’s not helping against Jean Dujardin, decided to go it alone. He’s better alone. When he’s alone, he can be By Lainey • Feb 13, 2012 06:55 pm
Bad Style BAFTA Worst: Penelope Cruz As you know already, I don’t like most red dresses. And especially on red carpets. That’s the first problem. And that’s not even the worst problem. Mr Armani’s chest plate is offensive to me. They way it cuts off her arms on the insides is offensive By Lainey • Feb 13, 2012 06:54 pm
Bad Style BAFTA Bonnie tried I think I might like all the pieces Bonnie Wright is wearing on their own, separate from each other. Out for dinner? To a cocktail party? Sure. On the red carpet at the most prestigious British award show? We may have under-aimed, you know? There’s only so far they By Lainey • Feb 13, 2012 06:53 pm
BAFTA 2012 Worst BAFTA Eyeroll - Shailene Woodley (I should check whether I’ve done ‘worst eyeroll’ before. I feel like it’s becoming a popular category). Let’s discuss Ms. Woodley for a second. She landed on that most…average of teen shows The Secret Life Of The American Teenager. Do not try to tell me that By Duana • Feb 13, 2012 06:52 pm
BAFTA 2012 BAFTA Limited: Michelle Williams So you’re Tilda Swinton and you have a certain...aesthetic. We can agree that Michelle Williams doesn’t share that aesthetic, right? Michelle Williams has a different range. She goes from Marchesa to Chanel to Valentino to this, H&M, a lovely if not terribly inspiring dress ... but By Lainey • Feb 13, 2012 06:50 pm
BAFTA 2012 Best BAFTA Mystery: Kristen Wiig Are you KIDDING me with this? Are you joking about what Kristen Wiig wore to the BAFTAs? Please investigate below… She looks like a fairy princess Vanna White. And I can’t just accept this; I need to find some sort of conspiracy theory in it, apparently. Why is she By Duana • Feb 13, 2012 06:43 pm
Style Best BAFTA Hair: Tilda Swinton A severe side part, height around the crown, and some body. I wish I could be so...brave. My excuse is that my hair doesn’t grow like that. I know this because I tried it. At 12. And again at 19. Which is when you have the balls for By Lainey • Feb 13, 2012 06:35 pm
BFFs Best Random Duo: Daniel Radcliffe & Octavia Spencer I cannot tell you how much these pictures make me laugh. This is what happens in Hollywood. You are Daniel Radcliffe, barely out of your teens, and you are there because Harry Potter, your stunningly successful magic franchise, is up for some final awards, none glamorous, and which will require By Duana • Feb 13, 2012 06:28 pm
