Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Keri’s best LBD Keri Russell has shown up a lot in this space over the last year. I have loved so many of her outfits. I think she’s also been the Outfit of the Week.

Lifestyle Smutty Fitness: Working out through injuries Hi Hayley, As I write this I’m feeling very discouraged (and sorry for myself). I’ve managed to get into a really good rhythm with exercise this year: I’ve been running with a friend 3x per week for the last several months and we recently ran a 10k By Hayley • Sep 14, 2018 02:52 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: La La Anthony's Outfit of the Week I’m not going to pretend that I would ever wear this dress. I do admire it though. And I love it on La La Anthony.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Elle’s yellow and stripes What is your favourite fashion season? Duana and I talked about this recently. She’s all about summer. I’m super into fall. I like the versatility of fall. I like layering. I like that a short summer dress gets a new life with tights and combat boots. I like By Lainey • Sep 14, 2018 11:47 am
Lifestyle Duana Names: Natural Acts of Names, And a Dire Warning Hi Duana, My daughter was born in 2009. Her name is the same as a popular exclusive dating app. When I picked her name, it was a relatively unknown but not too exotic name.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Gwendoline’s fashion week pyjamas LOOOOOOOVE. I’m all about pyjama fashion. I was worried it was going out of style. It is not going out of style. Gwendoline Christie is keeping them firmly IN style. This is unmistakably a pyjama outfit, specifically produced not to sleep in but to be seen in. The colours By Lainey • Sep 12, 2018 05:08 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Saoirse’s pink shoulder bows This dress on Saoirse Ronan isn't lighting me on fire or anything but I do find it interesting, the way they’ve tied a bow on each shoulder and let the loops fall forward to create a mini-sleeve effect with the ribbon. It’s cute, right? A cute By Lainey • Sep 12, 2018 04:58 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Julianne’s white TIFF pleats This is everything I want in a red carpet dress. Almost. Mostly because it doesn’t have anything I don’t want. There’s no tightness. There’s no waist. Which doesn’t mean there’s no shape. The pleats and layers create dimension and different levels. And I love By Lainey • Sep 10, 2018 01:01 pm
Lifestyle Duana Names: Is Too Weird A Thing? Dear Duana, (just so you know, my auto correct turned your name to Diana) I just finished reading your book and loved every bit of it. As a name geek and fellow owner of a confusing Irish name, so much of it resonated with me. As a side note, I By Duana • Sep 07, 2018 04:22 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Jamie Chung’s pantsuit This was supposed to be the Outfit of the Week. And then the title was snatched away by another. We’ll get to that soon.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Kate’s beach on the red carpet This outfit on Kate Beckinsale isn’t much…but it’s a lot at the same time. Is it a dress? Would you call it a dress? Or is it more like a bathing suit and a cover-up? If she was wearing sandals or flip-flops and she was standing on By Lainey • Sep 06, 2018 02:37 pm
Lifestyle Duana Names: Perfect… Plus Hi Duana, I’m a huge Name Nerd and I couldn’t wait until I had a reason to email you for advice. My daughter is due in early September and I’ve found her first name but no middle. What to do when her dad and I can’t By Duana • Sep 05, 2018 04:32 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Natalie in a big gold dress I’m calling it a Big Gold Dress, here on Natalie Portman, because while it’s not, like, it takes up a lot of real estate or anything but the way the dress looks on her it feels like it’s taking up more space than it should, you know?
