Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Isabelle’s white cuffs How many others could pull this look off without looking like a f-cking asshole clown? Not many. Because it’s not just extra long white lace cuffs at the wrist, it’s also white lace cuffs… around the ankle! I mean, f-ck, I would like to try. Really bad. That’ By Lainey • May 12, 2017 03:48 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Brie’s best Dior Not normally an admirer of Brie Larson style but this outfit is great on her. Jacket is perfectly tailored. And LOVE the choice to wear boots, which may obviously have something to do with the venue but even if it wasn’t out in the wild, this event, I’d By Lainey • May 12, 2017 03:06 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Judith should have been at the MET Gala What we all need to do right now is curtsey. Or whatever it is that we’re supposed to do when a god.damn QUEEN arrives and shows you how it’s done. You know who could have given Rihanna a run at Best Dressed at the MET Gala? Judith By Lainey • May 10, 2017 04:08 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Tracee’s sequined patches Sasha emailed me last night freaking out about Tracee Ellis Ross’s look at the MTV Movie and TV Awards last night. It’s her “favourite for all of 2017”. I like it too, though I’m not sure I would say it’s my favourite for the entire year By Lainey • May 08, 2017 11:58 am
Style Rihanna: the MET Gala MVP There is SJP. And there is Solange. And both have become critical to the MET Gala. I agree with Duana that Solange has made a monumental impact on this event. That she is leading us to new and memorable places with her style instincts. That it is breathtaking, the choices By Lainey • May 02, 2017 03:48 pm
Style Solange: MET Best Dressed 2017 (Duana) Well. I mean, of course it’s not surprising that Solange is Best Dressed. In fact, she’s been using the MET Gala as her personal runway for years—a place where she is, in a different way than Rihanna, expected to reign. But man, I didn’t know it By Duana • May 02, 2017 01:17 pm
Style Ruth Negga: MET Best Dressed 2017 (Lainey) I promise that we try. After the Oscars and the Globes and the Emmys and especially the MET Gala, when we break down the list of coverage and consider the assignments, Duana and I try mix it up, we try not to keep going to the same names for best By Lainey • May 02, 2017 01:01 pm
Style Janelle Monae & Chrissy Teigen: Best MET Feather Bombs Officially, my assignment sheet also includes John Legend, but can we acknowledge what we know? JL, you look great, it’s not about you, we gotta go. Okay. These dresses are kin to one another—not yin and yang, more like Big and Little Sis. But they’re both about By Duana • May 02, 2017 11:19 am
Style Zoe Kravitz: the MET’s punk pixie Zoe Kravitz has an advantage. Several, actually. First… you can’t get away from the face. Her face, it’s absurd. Like absurdly exquisite. Like intoxicatingly exquisite. Second though, right now, it’s the hair. Right now, the shock blonde pixie cut is having a moment. But no one is By Lainey • May 02, 2017 09:20 am
Style Tracee Ellis Ross: Best First MET What did I tell you yesterday about my girl? Allow me to quote myself. Because I haven’t slept, and I can’t come up with any new words but also because Tracee Ellis Ross just killed it at her first MET Gala and I f-cking called it on the By Lainey • May 02, 2017 08:38 am
Style Priyanka Chopra: Met Gala Gadget Priyanka Chopra was one of the first arrivals to the MET Gala, and the “Inspector Gadget” jokes came fast and furious. I get it, she’s wearing a trench coat. I will tell you why I’m more into this than 95% of the gowns I saw. Adherence to theme: By Maria • May 02, 2017 12:39 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Tracee’s pre-MET glasses Tracee Ellis Ross is also in New York today, also possibly for the MET Gala. And she too has never been. If she’s going, I’m putting a lot of hope in her, hope that she will interpret the theme, honour Rei Kawakubo with structure, an unconventional shape, some By Lainey • May 01, 2017 04:28 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Halle’s pre-MET raincoat OMGGG is Halle Berry going to the MET Gala? I don’t ever remember seeing her there. But she’s in New York today. And almost everyone who’s in NYC today is there for the MET Gala. If she’s going, I’m predicting she’ll be in Versace. By Lainey • May 01, 2017 04:15 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Zoe’s strapless black dress My cousin Cat sent me a text the other day: “Zoe Kravitz. Ridiculous.” TOTALLY. Totally ridiculous. Cool as f-ck. Attitude and warmth at the same time. And that face, my GOD. Anyway, this strapless black dress – I’m not usually a fan of a strapless dress. But I love how By Lainey • Apr 27, 2017 02:57 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Oprah’s best outfit I can’t remember seeing a better outfit on Oprah. If you can, let me know. The best part, of course, is the jacket. I love the stripes down the sleeves coordinating with the stripes on her top. And that little bit of sheer fabric hanging below is super cute By Lainey • Apr 19, 2017 03:57 pm
Style Rihanna’s pop-up After spending the weekend at Coachella or, as she calls it, #Chella17, Rihanna was in LA yesterday for her Fenty Puma pop-up. It’s a two day event: the official invite. #FENTYxPUMA pull up doe. A post shared by badgalriri (@badgalriri) onApr 18, 2017 at 11:03am PDT I would By Lainey • Apr 19, 2017 01:02 pm
