Lady Mary has always been something of a disappointment in her real-world public appearances. We wouldn’t want this kind of pressure for ourselves (although it’s about as first-world as first-world problems get), but she’s so striking and her role on Downton Abbey allows her...

We’re cracking our knuckles and pushing up our sleeves, darlings, because we’ve got a metric shit-tonne of dresses to rip. Hit it, ladystars!   Adele in Burberry It’s pretty, but kind of a stereotypical “big girl” dress. We realize she just had a baby and we...

Moving right along…   Allison Williams in Oscar de la Renta Spring 2013 We said the other day that she tends to dress a little old for her age, but this brilliant green really pops and she looks amazing. Jewelry’s a little half-assed, though.   Anna Chlumsky in custom...

Darlings, there are even MORE pre-Emmys dresses to rip! And these are all nominees, which means they’d cut every other bitch in attendance just to get that bowling trophy in drag!   Amy Poehler in BCBG Max Azria This may be a personal best for her. Nothing like a breakup to get a...

Well, darlings, the press ramp-up to what is sure to become a media juggernaut has begun. Season three of Downton Abbey (now with added Shirley MacLaine flavor crystals) is heading the world’s way and all the prettier cast members are going to get lots and lots of pictures taken and...

Darlings, let’s take a break from criticizing children and look at the official poster for Season 3 of Downton Abbey, which is out and ready to be discussed. And like all official Downton Abbey cast photos, perspective and physics take a back seat, as the cast are turned, through the...

Darlings, if you’re a fan of the show, season 3 of Downton Abbey feels like a distressingly long way away (some time early next year for U.S. kittens). But while we were scrolling through the list of topics for today (looking for something easy because those Project Runway posts really...

Darlings, pretty little ladystars all in a row attended the Miu Miu Fall 2012 show wearing pretty little ladycoats and ladyshoes, with one notable exception. Let’s judge them.   Kate Mara Oh, honey. This is why every star should have a minion. It looks like you needed to do some...

Darlings, Lady Edith and Lady Mary took the train down to London to get fitted for their new dresses for the coming season. Laura Carmichael and Michelle Dockery attends Mulberry show and after-party during London Fashion Week. They met some of those lovely girls who work in the picture...

We’re far more likely to dig into our DVD collection during the summer months, when there’s very little worth watching on TV. Last week, we found ourselves immersed in the world of Downton Abbey once again and cried to the heavens that we have to wait a while for the recently...
