Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Zendaya’s velvet jumpsuit So much velvet this season. I love how it looks here in olive-ish green. Imagine how comfortable it must be to wear this. How soft it would feel on your skin. Definitely makes up for what a pain in the ass it is to pee. By Lainey • Dec 20, 2016 01:19 pm
Lifestyle Duana Names: SOCCERSTAR! Hi Duana! I’m an Aunt to two amazing boys and my sister is expecting her third (and very much surprise) baby in December. We just found out this week it’s another boy. I’m in Auntie heaven already! Here are the issues: My brother in law is Mexican-Italian By Duana • Dec 19, 2016 05:08 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Another Nicole in a topknot Unlike Nicole Kidman, Nicole Richie is in a topknot all the time. Like Nicole Kidman, I love it on her too. I also like that she’s letting her top do the makeup for her. You don’t need much when there’s all that sparkle going on in your By Lainey • Dec 19, 2016 01:59 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Nicole in a topknot I can’t remember ever seeing Nicole Kidman in a topknot. And she looks really good in a topknot. It’s the perfect dress for a topknot too. You don’t want to mess with anything too extra above the neck given how complicated everything else is below. A topknot By Lainey • Dec 19, 2016 01:35 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Jessica Alba’s silver boots I have loved wearing long pleated skirts this season. In almost every colour. And they’re everywhere. And you can pair them with almost anything. Jessica Alba’s doing it here with a long Zoe Jordan sweater with shoulder cut-outs and a gorgeous pair of silver boots…in crushed velvet?

Lifestyle Duana Names: On Grandmothers and grudge-holding So you know, on these days when we talk fondly about the children who may soon arrive, there’s always someone who says “Ugh, kids. And they’re full of GERMS.” And it’s true, they are… but I have it on backed-up, I’m-not-the-only-one proof that my current plague By Duana • Dec 16, 2016 03:44 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Jennifer Lawrence’s tank bra and slip skirt This outfit is basically undergarments. A tank bra on top and a the skirt looks like a slip, doesn’t it? Duana is big on slips. I never wear slips. I’ve never worn slips. My ma did though and when I was a kid, I used to wear her By Lainey • Dec 16, 2016 02:47 pm
Lifestyle Smutty Fitness: Beyond sit-ups After my second child I realized I had diastasis recti. And then I realized that I'd had it after my first 5 years earlier - but just dismissed as Mom body. I've quit sit-ups as I've heard that they just make it worse, but By Hayley • Dec 16, 2016 01:51 pm
Lifestyle Duana Names: Flag-Waving Name? Dear Duana, After obsessing over names for my entire life, I’m now stuck with only a few weeks left to figure this out! Duana, I’m turning to you – please help. Here are some perfunctory details before I launch into the dilemma. I am due with baby number two By Duana • Dec 14, 2016 06:31 pm
Lifestyle Smutty Fitness: Treadmill intervals The winter has hit us hard here on Canada’s west coast, which means running outside is out of the question. It’s not that we west coasters can’t handle the cold, but our city can’t seem to clear the snow (all 15cm of it) off the sidewalks By Hayley • Dec 12, 2016 03:35 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Michelle’s boring Critics See previous post about Kate Beckinsale. The Critics’ Choice Awards is not the event where you pull out your best. That said… I mean, she’s still going to be a nominee through this entire award season. She was just nominated for a Golden Globe this morning. And this dress? By Lainey • Dec 12, 2016 01:12 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Kate’s Critics’ Oscar dress For most people at Critics’ Choice, especially on the film side, they’re not bringing their A dresses. Consider that we still have the Globes and the SAGs and then the Oscars to come. Compared to those events, nobody cares about Critics’ Choice. Kate Beckinsale, as I’ve been saying By Lainey • Dec 12, 2016 11:32 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Kerry’s Critics’ sheer and stars Like Sasha, I can’t resist a star print. And I love the way it’s done here, on the sheer. The designer surprised me though. It’s Elie Saab. And it’s not boring! In other Kerry news, she and her husband, Nnamdi Asomugha made a rare appearance together By Lainey • Dec 12, 2016 10:11 am
Lifestyle Duana Names: I Want To Know Right Now What Will It Be? Hey Duana, My husband and I are expecting a girl on January 1st and are still undecided on her name. We have a son, Alexander, who mostly goes by Alex, but is also called Sasha by myself and my husband (we both speak Russian). I love me some odd names, By Duana • Dec 09, 2016 04:38 pm
Lifestyle Sasha Finds: The EMPWR Coat I wish it didn’t take the holidays to motivate us all to be better human beings, but it’s better than nothing. So while we are all snuggled up in our cozy PJs, eating an endless supply of food from our fridge, and doing something as inane as mulling By Sasha • Dec 09, 2016 03:11 pm
