Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: theme-dressing with Kris Aquino Yellow in Chinese culture is the colour of royalty. Kris Aquino is not Chinese royalty but she’s practically a queen in the Philippines and she plays a princess in Crazy Rich Asians. So it’s fitting that she wore yellow to the premiere last night. Of course she’d By Lainey • Aug 08, 2018 04:31 pm
Lifestyle Duana Names: Tell Me You Love It Hi Duana, I need some help! I am pregnant with my first child, a boy. For the last couple of years my go-to boy name has been Noel, pronounced the English way, like 'knoll'. While I have been very open to other names and have narrowed down a By Duana • Aug 03, 2018 03:29 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Jennifer Lopez's Outfit of the Week This outfit on Jennifer Lopez isn’t, like, a Hall of Fame entry or anything. It’s a good outfit though. And the reason I want to highlight it is for the white pants. But let’s start with the blouse. I love a high collar blouse. I love the By Lainey • Aug 03, 2018 02:55 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Chloe’s feeling her black and white dress And she should be. It’s a great dress. Check out Chloe Grace Moretz strutting in a long black and white shirt dress that a lot going on in the print and still, somehow, it all comes together. It has to have that much going on though because, otherwise, maybe By Lainey • Aug 02, 2018 04:05 pm
Lifestyle Duana Names: Therein Lies The Paradox Hey Duana! (My cousin) and her husband have been obsessing over names for their 2nd baby girl, due in August, and are really stuck. I've tried to jump in with suggestions, but really nothing feels "just right." They have a 2 year old, Alivia Nicole, and By Duana • Aug 01, 2018 04:20 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Mila’s pinstriped jumpsuit Is this a jumpsuit? It may be a two-piece. Whatever it is, it’s great on her. And a relief because I have not at all been into anything she’s worn so far on The Spy Who Dumped Me press tour. Boring, boring, boring gowns. This pinstriped situation though… By Lainey • Jul 31, 2018 04:28 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Alison’s elevating white tee The dress Alison Brie is wearing here isn’t much. I mean it’s fine. It’s just not something I would pause over. The dress is not the outfit. Or, rather, the dress is not what makes the outfit stand out. The reason this outfit stands out, to me, By Lainey • Jul 31, 2018 03:07 pm
Lifestyle Duana Names: What’s This But Not This? Hi Duana, I'm expecting my second soon (the third week of July!), and am at a loss for names. Our first is named Beverly, which we're delighted with - not only because it honours a grandmother that I was close with, but because it seems to By Duana • Jul 27, 2018 03:57 pm
Lifestyle Sasha Finds: Matching separates One of the most popular looks dominating the summer season has to be matching separates. It’s the simplest way to put an outfit together with zero brain power. There are a slew to choose from, but my current love is from a new brand from the west coast: Albedo By Sasha • Jul 27, 2018 03:47 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Amandla Stenberg's Outfits of the Week As promised in the previous post, I’m highlighting today the work of stylist Jason Bolden. Here’s a fun question: if you could be styled by either Jason or Law Roach, who would you choose? Jason, in addition to all his other clients, works with Amandla Stenberg who is By Lainey • Jul 27, 2018 02:52 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Taraji goes full Gucci It’s not easy to dress head-to-toe in one label. You know who does this often? Crazy Rich Asians. With mixed results. Here’s Taraji P Henson in full Gucci – the dress, the belt, the shoes. You like or you mad? I like. But I may be biased because I’ By Lainey • Jul 27, 2018 02:07 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Katy’s amazing jacket Oh I’m all over this jacket. And I’m really surprised that it’s on Katy Perry. Not that she doesn’t look great – that’s why she’s being featured here – but because Katy’s style is not my favourite. This jacket though? Why don’t I have By Lainey • Jul 26, 2018 04:23 pm
Lifestyle Duana Names: Cultural Can-We-Do-That? Help! Since I was little I’ve always known my daughter’s name would be Katherine but we all call her Kate. My name is a Polish variation of Katie but I’m not at all Polish (long story! Eye roll), which is Kasia. I loved the sentiment of it By Duana • Jul 25, 2018 04:47 pm
Lifestyle Smutty Fitness: Scale obsessed Hi Hayley! I'm writing to you out of complete, end of my rope, frustration. I am (almost) 39 years old, and the mother of four. My youngest is two and a half. I have been working out and eating healthily for most of my adult life, although I By Hayley • Jul 25, 2018 04:38 pm
Lifestyle Duana Names: What Dreams May Come Hi Duana, fellow name nerd here. I am two weeks away from baby boy #2 (Duana: Actually less now, this email came in a few days ago) and I’m having doubts about our chosen name, which hubs and I deemed “perfect” since the beginning of the pregnancy.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Michelle in caramel and green Kinda mad at Michelle Monaghan here for wearing this on the weekend because this would totally have been a candidate for Outfit of the Week, I love this look so much. And you know what she and her stylist, Karla Welch, have done here? They’ve shown us that taffeta By Lainey • Jul 23, 2018 11:59 am
