Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cate’s webbed dress Trying to think of who else could pull off this dress. It’s not my favourite, but I appreciate it for its imagination. And that it’s being showcased on someone who CAN. Imagine if Christopher Kane had decided to let it wear on someone … I dunno… Oliva Wilde? Vanessa By Lainey • Aug 28, 2013 12:08 pm

Girlcrushes A week of Cate Cate Blanchett’s been out a lot this week to promote Blue Jasmine. The style porn has been amazing. I decided to wait and collect all her looks and post them all at once. My favourite, obviously, is the showstopper – the pink Balenciaga Edition. Look at that. It’s incredible. By Lainey • Jul 26, 2013 02:24 pm

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cate Princess Leia It does have that intergalactic warrior girl feel about it, right? I love that she adds a regal element to everything she wears.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Cate’s flight suit On me the pants would be too long and I’d be the chubby girl in pyjamas. On Cate Blanchett, well, it’s a flight suit. I mean how else would she fly? By Lainey • Jun 07, 2012 09:45 am
Style Cate Blanchett: Met Gala disappointment Sorry. I’m not saying it sucks. I’m not saying it’s Paula Patton. But by Cate Blanchett standards, I am underwhelmed. It’s fitted black with a high collar and another f-cking feathered skirt. And it’s McQueen. It has to be the tamest, most restrained McQueen in By Lainey • May 08, 2012 10:37 am
