Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Kate’s black zippered dress The zipper in the front makes this LBD on Kate Moss. I like how the zipper detail, once thought to be a feature that didn’t belong on a cocktail or formal dress, is not a problem anymore. Reminds me of Vanessa Traina’s wedding dress – have you seen it?

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Gabrielle’s black ESPY dress I’m really into this dress. It’s the high collar and the space suit shoulders. Also the straps in the back. Also, she manages to elevate the look. Like if this were worn by a Kardashian, it’d be a whole different thing. By Lainey • Jul 18, 2013 10:53 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Dita in petals and polka dots Two dresses on Dita Von Teese yesterday, both great, though I think I prefer the white with black spotted print, but in the cut of the dress with the petals all over it. Like if only the two could be mashed together. By Lainey • Jul 16, 2013 10:19 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Sandra’s strapless green maxi dress You like it? I love it. The colour, yes. But for me the key feature is the smocking. A smocked strapless dress is … easy. And easier. Because the smocking gives it the stretch. And the stretch works with your body. So that it will work across two or three sizes. By Lainey • Jul 12, 2013 01:20 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Alison’s open back waistcoat dress It’s just a long waistcoat, isn’t it? Whatever you want to call it, I’m really into it. Alison Pill has never looked better. By the way, you see that detail at the back of the neck instead of accessorising from the front? And a braid band! Everything By Lainey • Jul 11, 2013 02:20 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Rosamund’s white collar dress Amazing. So sharp and clean and the hint of pink is great. But then again, I’m partial to a Peter Pan collar. The dress is really good from the back, too. By Lainey • Jul 11, 2013 02:12 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Jessica Alba’s yellow heels Not crazy about heels like that need to be tied etc. Seems so messy to me. That’s a great looking blazer though. Can never get enough of black blazers. By Lainey • Jul 10, 2013 11:43 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Diane’s mixed print improvement Much better than the underwhelming green, black, and white dress yesterday, right? Click here for a refresher. LOVE the dots mixed with the florals. LOVE. By Lainey • Jul 10, 2013 10:39 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Kate’s short printed summer halter I love the cut of this dress. Halters are so flattering. And her Isabel Marants go well with it too. Does it pass the sit test? Do celebrities worry about passing the sit test? Sometimes you don’t know how short something is until you sit down. And the it’ By Lainey • Jul 08, 2013 10:26 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Rinko’s black Chanel I didn’t know Rinko Kikuchi had cut her hair until I interviewed her last week in San Francisco at the Pacific Rim junket. It actually looks really good on her – and I say this because, as I’ve said a lot, the way our Asian hair grows, all spiky By Lainey • Jul 05, 2013 10:34 am
Style Monogrammed Gwyneth’s Independence Day colours She’s an American living in London (would she rather be a Brit living in London?) and she wore the red, white, and blue today, Independence Day, while out with her husband. Here are Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin shopping with a GPM bag. My G and I love the By Lainey • Jul 04, 2013 03:20 pm
Lifestyle Paris Haute Couture Week: Valentino F/W 2013 What a beautiful collection. The coats are exquisite. My favourite is this large print tartan in camel mixing directions on the top and bottom. Badass, right? I see it on Kerry Washingon. Or Cate Blanchett. By Lainey • Jul 04, 2013 11:36 am
Bad Style Sandy in Sydney Fresh off her triumph at the box office this weekend with The Heat, Sandra Bullock is now in Australia to continue promotion. As I wrote earlier, The Heat delivered on so many levels – Melissa McCarthy is now a major box office draw, Sandy continues to be loved, and the two By Lainey • Jul 02, 2013 10:54 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Mrs Timberlake’s leather jacket and kicks As I always say, Mrs Timberlake is always better when she’s casual and not trying high fashion. Love this leather jacket on her over jeans and a pair of kicks. Also it looks like that dumb fringe has almost grown out. Good. By Lainey • Jul 02, 2013 09:53 am
Style Karl gets Kristen & Rihanna It’s too bad they weren’t sitting together. Now that would have been a great photo. Rihanna was at the Chanel Haute Couture presentation in Paris today with some of her best girls. I’ll post photos from the runway when more become available. She wore a long shirt By Lainey • Jul 02, 2013 09:34 am
Style Uncle Charlie’s friends This is what I love about the BET Awards – the audience is SO into it. Normally, at the other shows, maybe the first two rows are getting down, and always Taylor Swift, but everyone else doesn’t know what the f-ck to do with themselves. At BET? Everyone is grooving, By Lainey • Jul 01, 2013 01:50 pm
