Style Ocean's Eight fashion More shots of Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, joined by Helena Bonham Carter on the New York set of Ocean's Eight. I’m stupid. I was focused on the casting and the story, it never occurred to me that fashion would be a character on this movie since they’ By Lainey • Oct 26, 2016 03:48 pm

Cheating Loins Cate isn't bothered Cate Blanchett is in Paris today for the Armani show. She is an ambassador for the brand and has long been one of the designer's favourites. Here she is earlier this week in New York. She'll be on Broadway for the first time in The Present By Lainey • Oct 21, 2016 02:51 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cate in leather sleeves at the Tonys Probably one of the most polarising looks of the night. A lot of people don’t get it. What’s the problem? This is Louis Vuitton. From the same collection where Nicolas Ghesquire sent out a selection of the most amazing shoes and booties I’ve seen in a long By Lainey • Jun 13, 2016 01:06 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Sandra Bullock’s Ocean’s Ocho Last November it was confirmed that Sandra Bullock would be heading up a female version of Oceans Eleven. Will the men protest this like they have been the Ghostbusters movie? Interestingly, TIME posits that those protests are one of the reasons Ghostbusters is the most anticipated upcoming movie release. Excellent. By Lainey • Jun 10, 2016 11:16 am
Oscars 2016 Cate Blanchett’s Ageless Oscars There have been some FUSSY emails today about botox or fillers or micro derma Sweet Potatoes and why we aren’t writing indictments of everyone suspected to use these things. I think 2003 has come and gone, you know? From what I understand, accusing most Hollywood performers of using these By Duana • Feb 29, 2016 04:19 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cate's Spirits peacock I can usually defend anything on Cate Blanchett. And if it were someone else wearing this, the effect would certainly be a lot worse. But I can't get with this. The peacock as a standalone, fine. The peacock and that whole garden against a nude neutral, stop. By Lainey • Feb 27, 2016 05:38 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cate’s slick black dress This dress has to be a perfect f-cking fit if it’s going to work, with this material. And, as you can see, it is. Only Cate f-cking Blanchett can make a dress this tight, this body-con, look like it’s suitable for a meeting with the Queen. By Lainey • Feb 24, 2016 10:03 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cate’s BAFTA feathers I don’t like a feathered skirt. It’s so very 2005. But most of the time, when we see the feathered skirt, it’s pink or white. The black feathered skirt is unmistakably McQueen though. Last year I went to the Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty exhibit at the Victoria By Lainey • Feb 15, 2016 09:34 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cate’s travelling overalls Well she looks good in anything so it’s no surprise Cate Blanchett in overalls is better than most of us in overalls. But …on a plane? Think about the mechanics of that. Gross plane bathroom floor, even if you’re in first class. Maybe that’s just my hang-up By Lainey • Jan 20, 2016 12:12 pm
Golden Globes 2016 Cate Blanchett: Best Globes Fringe Cate Blanchett’s Givenchy will probably end up on a lot of Worst Dressed lists. And those same people will probably put Kate Hudson on their Best Dressed. That’s not where I want to live. At the same time, Cate B is often my Best Dressed so she’s By Lainey • Jan 11, 2016 03:03 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cate’s build to the Globes It started in Palm Springs last weekend. Her dress was terrific. Last night at the W Magazine pre-Globes party, in Erdem, also terrific. And if these were the “secondary” looks, imagine what we’re getting on Sunday? By Lainey • Jan 08, 2016 12:55 pm
Cate Blanchett Cate’s getting ready Cate Blanchett spent Christmas with her husband and children in Australia. Yesterday she was photographed arriving at LAX with daughter Edith ahead of the new year. I’m not sure it’s going to be a short stay either. Because that’s a long flight. And if she leaves again By Lainey • Dec 29, 2015 01:41 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara in (a Christmas) Carol (Lainey: the “Christmas” in the title is my corny addition and not Sarah’s. Am working on a theme today.) Todd Haynes made one of my all-time favorite films, Velvet Goldmine, which is about a young man’s sexual awakening at the hands of a more experienced man during the By Sarah • Dec 24, 2015 10:49 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Cate Blanchett is joining Thor: Ragnarok A couple months ago I wrote about some developments with Thor: Ragnarok, including that the big-screen Marvel villainess will debut in that movie. This is what I said back then: …empowered by their recent A-list success in casting Doctor Strange, Marvel will pursue a big name actress for Mystery Villainess— By Sarah • Dec 11, 2015 11:25 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cate’s long earrings Am curious about how heavy these are. Because they’re long and they look substantial. But I do love them. LOVE THEM. I’d be afraid to wear them because they’re just such a temptation, you know? To be touched? And yanked? Dangerous but amazing. By Lainey • Dec 10, 2015 01:18 pm
