J Lo in a White Dress

We're a little sick of J Lo's need to wear one shouldered white gowns. That being said, we do like this gown and are particular fond of the sheer detail at the bottom. At the same time, we don't think this is the most flattering thing Ms. Lo has ever worn as she's looking a little thick around the middle. We are also unsure about those black streamers that seem to be mixed in with the white train. However, we still like the look overall and say she's in.

Red Carpet: Highland Fling with Helena Bonham Carter

We almost like this look on Helena Bonham Carter at the red carpet premiere of her new movie The King's Speech. How could we? You might ask. Well, she's Helena Bonham Carter, and dammit she owns that carpet. Look at her.

Sure, she looks like a Christmas tree skirt or at least ready to attend some Highland Ball. And sure, she appears to be carrying a cheap handbag from Claire's and even if it's not a cheap handbag from Claire's, it is very junior and very out of place with her Christmas plaid.

Project Runway: April's Final (Decoy) Collection

So, this collection is not perfect by any means. But (1) it's not black, (2) it's interesting, and (3) we're curious to see what else April is capable of. To us, it is a reminder that she was robbed (unless, of course, Gretchen and Andy end up showing us something much better than what we saw on tonight's episode of PR). We're calling it straight jacket chic. What do you think dear hearts?

Project Runway: (A Very Sad) Finale Part 1

So, tonight's episode, which is the first part of the two-part finale,  begins and we are reminded again that April is out. So sad. We plan to show her collection in its entirety in the next post, so you can see it.

Heidi informs the remaining four designers that they each get $9000 and 6 weeks to show a 10 piece collection. See you in 6 weeks suckers...

White Trash Beautiful: Heather Locklear and Ava Sambora

We recently learned a few things about Heather Locklear's fam that we didn't know before.

Heather Locklear and her daughter Ava Sambora look practically identical.





2. Heather's ex Richie Sambora has a women's clothing line called White Trash Beautiful.



3. Heather's 13 year old daughter Ava is currently a model (or at least she is whenever Dad designs the clothes).


We're most surprised by the second revelation. You?

Day and Night with Freida Pinto

Freida Pinto by Day. Freida has been working it for her new movie Miral. Here she is in a day look for a photo shoot. We love the soft browns, which almost blend into her skin. We think her ensemble is a perfect look for such an occasion. Our biggest issue is the fact that her neck has disappeared. We have noticed this before with Freida. We're not sure if she has a short neck or if she just has tendency to hide it. Either way, it would have been nice to have seen a look that elongated her neck more.

Despite the neck problem, her shoes are too cute. We were worried they were too dark for the softness of her skirt and shirt, but we actually think they add some nice contrast and, well, they're just too darn cute to say anything bad about. So, we say IN for this day look even if there were some things we would have done differently.
















Question: And what does Ms. Pinto wear when the sun goes down?

Worst Dressed Actresses at the Scream Awards

Also at the Scream Awards, were several actresses who looked frighteningly awful. Our nominees for Worst Dressed are:

1. Betsy Russell. Saw star Betsy Russell showed up with one of the most disturbing cleavage shots we've seen in awhile. This is just plain ugly. You should really be wearing a bra dear because the girls need some help.

Best Dressed Actresses at the Scream Awards

Many of our fave celebs attended this year's Scream Awards. Some looked divine, while other looked screamingly awful. And the nominees for Best Dressed are:

1. Blake Lively. We think this gray looks very pretty on the always fashionable Blake Lively. The leather detail is also interesting and the jewel detail at the neckline adds just the right amount of sparkle to break up a look that might otherwise be a bit drab.
