Sex & the City SATC 3? Entertainment Weekly just interviewed Michael Patrick King and asked about a third Sex & The City movie. SJP recently told a magazine that she’d be open to it because there’s still a “chapter” to be told. Is there? “Chapter” is a word that Michael Patrick King uses too. By Lainey • Feb 20, 2014 10:30 am
Style Emma’s giant bow Not normally into bows. But when they’re used like this and worn by Emma Watson, there’s not much to complain about. This is not a prom bow with ringlets. It’s not a hair bow with ringlets. It’s a skirt bow. It’s a bow that IS By Lainey • Feb 19, 2014 12:12 pm
