Lea usually poses all the time looking like her inner monologue is something along the lines of, well… “WERQ it, girl!” Still, despite the fact that she looks like she’s congratulating herself all the time, we feel the need to concur just this once. Lea Michele...
Perry Ellis Spring 2012 Menswear CollectionThank God for the menswear shows. We will always be the type of queen who can wax rhapsodic about a dramatic gown stomping down a runway, but sometimes, a boy just needs to look at cute boys in boy clothes. Especially if a boy (or boys) covets practically every piece those cute boys are... In or Out: Christina Hendricks in Vivienne WestwoodOh, Miss Christina. Just what are we going to do with you? Christina Hendricks at the New York premiere of “I Don’t Know How She Does It” in a Vivienne Westwood gown. It’s a great color on her. We like the drape in the bodice and the upper part of the skirt. But that... New York Fashion Week Spring 2012 Front Row – Part 2Darlings, come gawk at celebrities with us. Courtney Love at Alexander Wang Spring 2012 Show That’s actually a pretty sharp look. It doesn’t fit her correctly and we can’t imagine wearing leather gloves in this weather, but the girl brought it as best she can. Lea Michele at... In or Out: Tilda Swinton in Haider AckermannWe love you, Tilda Swinton! We want to breathe your air and gaze at your coolly unnerving androgyny all day.

Miss Universe 2011 National Costumes, Part TwoSecond verse, same as the first, bitches. Miss Aruba “In Aruba, we have ROBOT SHOWGIRLS!” Miss Botswana “Miss Botswana knows what to do with people who don’t vote for her. Oh, yes. Miss Botswana beats them with her big Botswanan shovel.” Miss Brazil... Nicole Miller Spring 2012 CollectionWhat an experience the Nicole Miller show was. Not only did we get to sit in the front row, thanks to a concerted effort to support fashion bloggers, but we got to go backstage and meet Nicole herself and tell her what we think. And what did we think? We were blown away. When you think of... HP Project Runway Designer ReunionDarlings, a fabulous time was had by all at the HP Project Runway Designer Reunion at the Empire Hotel in New York City. How do we know? Well, thanks to our fabulous new besties at NotMartha, we got invited, but because the Monique Lhuillier show across the street at Lincoln Center ran so... Christian Siriano Spring 2012 CollectionWe think it’s fair to say that we’ve slung our share of criticism Christian’s way, but for the first time, we have nothing but praise for him. We feel that this collection represents a major step forward for him as a designer. It’s the most modern and chic collection... Miss Universe 2011 National Costumes, Part OneHit it, hos! Miss Angola “Come to Angola! Our sealife grows wild and attacks you!” Miss Australia “My breasts represent the sun rising over our fair land! My skirt represents our love for tacky fabrics!” Miss Bahamas “Quick! Vote for me before I grow my beak and... In or Out: Salma Hayek in Alexander McQueenWe’re not sure we’ve ever featured two red carpet posts in a row featuring looks from the same designer, but we thought this was yet another graphic illustration of the Number One T Lo Fashion Maxim: Girl, That Is NOT Your Dress. Salma Hayek attends the premiere of... WERQ: Leighton Meester in Alexander McQueenAll right, we admit up front that this look isn’t perfect: Leighton Meester attends the premiere “The Oranges” during the 2011 Toronto International Film Festival in an Alexander McQueen dress. Alexander McQueen Resort 2012 Collection/Model: Josefien Rodermans But... DKNY Spring 2012 CollectionOpening the doors of the venue to provide the quintessentially New York backdrop of a yellow cab bearing a DKNY logo and closing the show with “American Woman” playing, the DKNY show, held on the afternoon of September 11th, was equal parts NYC defiance and patriotism. “We... Pairs Division: Jolie and PittDarlings, it’s such a relief when these two get it right. It just doesn’t happen often enough. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt at the “Moneyball” Premiere during the 2011 Toronto International Film Festival. Angelia Jolie is wearing a Vivienne Westwood gown paired with a... Nautica Spring 2012 CollectionCan we just say, as very tired fashion bloggers in the middle of Fashion Week, THANK YOU to Nautica for the presentation of their Spring 2012 collection on the rooftop deck of the Empire Hotel? Because not only did we enjoy the presentation in a way we simply don’t when watching ladies... In or Out: Marisa Tomei in Proenza SchoulerWe’re a bit torn on this one because intellectually we know this is kind of a tough dress to pull off … Proenza Schouler Fall 2011 Collection And yet there she is, somehow pulling it off. Don’t get us wrong, it’s a gorgeous design and a beautiful print, but that shape... 2011 Primetime Creative Arts Emmy AwardsDarlings, it was the 2011 Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles, and we don’t have time for his nonsense! We’ve got fashion shows to get to this morning! Hit it, celebrities! Alison Brie It’s cute and sparkly and that suits her to a T.... New York Fashion Week Spring 2012 Front Row – Par...Aside from looking at beautiful clothes, Fashion Week is all about celebrity-gawking. Of course, we’re such fashion nerds that we tend to be more excited when we see a fashion editor we like. But still, it’s always a surreal moment to look up from your phone in mid-tweet and see... In or Out: Emily Blunt in Christian CotaDarlings, we’ve been dashing from Fashion Week event to Fashion Week event, indulging in a little glamour because for the other 50 weeks out of the year, we’re sitting at our desks in boxer shorts with cats on our lap 15 hours out of the day. That’s fabulous for us, but you... Vivienne Tam Spring 2012 CollectionWe always liked Vivienne Tam’s work; impeccable clothes with elegant detailing and thoughtful inspirations. But it wasn’t until last season, when we finally got to attend one of her shows, that we were utterly blown away by it. It photographs well, but in person, all the fine... PR Final Collections: Laura, Olivier, ViktorAll nine remaining designers showed finale collections Friday morning at Lincoln Center during Fashion Week. We are not spoiling anything regarding who will be in the Top 3 because we don’t know which of these designers are decoys and which aren’t. Laura Olivier... |
