Royals The Cambridges at Royal Ascot Prince William and Catherine were at Royal Ascot today. It’s been a busy few days for the Cambridges – Trooping The Colour, the Garter Day service, then a quick trip to Northern Ireland, the people are getting their fill of “work-shy” Will and “lazy” Katy. To be fair, again, I By Lainey • Jun 15, 2016 01:01 pm
Royals Her Majesty’s Birthday Weekend The Queen celebrated her actual 90th birthday in April but this weekend is the mega blowout in London. All mega blowouts start at church, which is where the royal family gathered today for a thanksgiving service. The Queen wore yellow. Samantha Cameron went sleeveless though. And everyone’s been screaming By Lainey • Jun 10, 2016 12:21 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Claire Danes’s oyster dress Oyster. Vulva. The point is this dress decided it needed whatever that is right at the belly button. And, well, to me it’s so distracting. I don’t think good-distracting. By Lainey • Jun 07, 2016 02:22 pm
Assy Style Rihanna or Julia? Rihanna stepped out last night in a green Gucci dress that looked familiar and it’s because Julia Roberts wore it last year: I didn’t love it on Julia. Rihanna’s styled it better but even she can’t save the weird fit and if she can’t save By Lainey • May 26, 2016 04:36 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Heidi’s cheap yellow Cannes Let’s go back to what Karl Lagerfeld once said about Heidi Klum: “She was never in Paris. We don’t know her.” Which means she was never runway, never couture. And, well, by “supermodel” standards, he’s right. Because what the f-ck is this dress? By Lainey • May 20, 2016 12:27 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Krysten’s strappy shoes I generally don’t like strappy shoes like this. Crissy-crossy complicated laces – it’s become very… Kardashian. I especially don’t like the shade of red/orange that Krysten Ritter wore with this black cut-out dress. They’re better from the day before in a really pretty off-centre-chested starburst cocktail By Lainey • May 19, 2016 11:13 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Blake’s Cannes runway How did Cannes end up being a fashion show for Blake Lively? There were a lot of appearances. And so much bad fashion in those appearances. Blake doesn’t have a stylist. Blake is also, liberally, singled out often for her sense of style. That’s an issue for me. By Lainey • May 16, 2016 04:25 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Salma’s Cannes prom If it was 1996, I would understand. What is the excuse for this in 2016? On Salma Hayek, who has access to almost every major design house? The straps AND the belt are glittered. There’s a bellybutton flower. And a tendril coming down her face. The tiered skirt is By Lainey • May 16, 2016 10:45 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Marion in denim, gold, and leather I hate this gold dress so much. And if she can’t save it, it can’t be saved. But look at her at the photo call. In a denim dress made to look like a long jean jacket and a lace top underneath just as a bonus. Then… This By Lainey • May 16, 2016 10:03 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Solange mixes materials I can get behind a lot when it comes to Solange style. And I’ve tried to find a way to defend this all morning. But I can’t. It’s the chintzy-ness of the material on top and the skirt. It’s the cut of the pants. But also, By Lainey • May 13, 2016 01:57 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Naomi’s Cannes lilac I can’t get excited about this, I’m sorry. First of all, I have a hard time with lilac in large sections. Second, it’s a strapless, with tricked out little flowers or whatever all over it and, well, it’s really not that different from what she wore By Lainey • May 12, 2016 12:07 pm
Royals Prince Harry denied Did you watch the Invictus Games Opening Ceremony last night? Even I got emotional. These athletes are true HEART. And the presentation of the entire event really speaks to how passionate and engaged Prince Harry has been behind the scenes, making this happen, raising awareness for the efforts of servicemen By Lainey • May 09, 2016 03:52 pm
Royals The Princess and her portrait Busy day for Princess Catherine. Three official events ending with a visit to the National Portrait Gallery where her VOGUE portraits are now on display. As revealed earlier this week, Kate covers the new issue of British VOGUE to celebrate their 100th anniversary. Some people bitched that these photos weren’ By Lainey • May 04, 2016 05:09 pm
Assy Style Blake Lively: MET Worst Dressed My friend Dylan, not exactly a fashion guy, texted me last night after seeing Blake Lively’s MET Gala dress on Instagram. Here’s what he said: It does look like a bag of raw chicken juice. And that sheer layer of material at the slit? It looks like the By Lainey • May 03, 2016 03:34 pm
Assy Style Amber Heard: the MET +1 My first reaction when I saw Amber Heard arriving at the MET Gala: HAHAHAAHHAHAH Maria’s text to me after seeing Amber Heard at the MET Gala: HAHAHAHAHAHAAH There’s not trying. And then there’s not being given the opportunity to try. Is that what happened to Amber Heard? By Lainey • May 03, 2016 12:51 pm
Assy Style Lady Gaga: MET self-homage What I love about the Met Gala is that it is supposed to be COSTUMES, not pretty dresses. Pretty dresses are a dime a dozen, but this is one night to go balls out. But what of the person who is always in costume? Lady Gaga, who the fashion world By Maria • May 03, 2016 01:24 am
