Unfug It Up: Rose Byrne

A couple of months ago, Ms Rose Byrne here mentioned us in Harper's Bazaar (not by name, of course, but I knew it was us because we're the only couple of snarky bloggers who've expressed concern about her emotional health -- because WE CARE, duh), and noted that she is NOT depressed, despite her wan mien in photos, but merely nervous. So I was pleased to see this:

That's more like it! Such a pretty face, such shiny hair. But...what is she wearing? Let's find out:

Don't look so crabby, Little J.

Either the Gossip Girl costumers are reacting to the public's generally horrified reaction to Taylor Momsen's usual Crotchtacular Faux-Punk style by wrapping her in as many yards of fabric as possible, or Little J has fallen through a rip in the space/time/reality continuum and has found herself living in a Henry James novel (this incarnation of which offers extra sequins). Either way, she should be thanking God we're not all screeching about how we can see the top of her thigh-highs. Enjoy the silence for as long as it lasts, kid. 

Look, I know Beyonce is essentially wearing a black sequined version of a Juicy sweatsuit here -- if they made one that involved leggings and a be-chained zippered vest -- and her sunglasses are probably a necessity considering how SHINY her ensemble is, but there's something about this picture that just cracks me up:

I think it's just that her expression says, "HELLO FRIEND! I am so pleased to see you." And considering that most celebrities' faces say something something closer to, "DIE PAPARAZZI DOUCHES DIE please see my movie opening next Friday," her cheerfulness is refreshing. I admit, though, that I may also just be programmed to feel pleased whenever someone appears dressed as though they're about to perform something involving jazz hands, and I feel confident that whatever routine Beyonce plans to bust out while wearing this outfit -- perhaps while insisting to her fellow diners that she insists on picking up the tab -- it is going to be JAZZHANDSTASTICAL.

Fug City

Every time I watch Olivia Palermo here on The City, I want to smack her. Whenever she's at her job for Elle, she acts like she's doing everyone there a favor by gracing them with her presence, AND she totally isn't backing that up with awesome work. Instead, she seems like she's completely half-assing that job and nothing makes me MORE ANNOYED than someone with a great job who just sort of does the bare minimum and then acts put upon when her coworkers are pissed that she's phoning it in. I've worked with people like her and they always made me want to whack them across the back of the head with a three-ring binder. (Although I must say that I think one of the reasons The City is more interesting to me than The Hills is that The City focuses much more on people's careers -- at least as much, if not more, than their relationships, whereas The Hills is SOLELY about people's almost completely scripted relationship dramas. Not that I'm not interested in relationship drama, trust me, but on these shows, said drama generally consists of people having UTTERLY OBLIQUE conversations that are nearly in code, and then staring blankly at the horizon. So watching Kelly Cutrone waltz into her office on The City like the head bitch in charge that she is, whipping everyone's lazy ass into shape and having no sympathy for their juvenile and possibly fictional issues, is totally satisfying. NO ONE on The Hills even GOES to work and therefore seemingly has no interest in doing ANYTHING with her life other than maybe hooking up with Brody and it's SO BORING. GET A GODDAMN JOB, GIRLS, as R. Kelly would say.) Anyway, where was I? Right. Olivia: a maddening coworker. BUT: she is insanely good-looking and has great hair and usually is beautifully pulled together. So THIS is particularly surprising:

Sweet sausage biscuits, what have we here? Sequined tap pants, an Asian-inspired belted vest, and granny's cardigan. This is the sort of thing that happens when you're picking out your ensemble after a bender of prescription muscle relaxers, boxed wine and deep-fried HoHos. I hope it goes without saying that my most fervent wish is for this kind of thing to become a habit for Olivia, so that I can look forward to seeing her on the finale of The City wearing, like, denim cut-offs, a Bedazzled coconut bra, an Elizabethan ruff and a cape.

Remember the time Katherine Heigl wore this? And we all chatted about it at length and it was so fun?

Well, except maybe for Katie. Whatever, she can go cry on a pile of cash and then go kick Dempsey in the shins, or whatever she does when she's feeling persecuted. ANYWAY, someone's trotted that old girl out again. I'd pretend it was a MYSTERY who, but her name's in the title up there. See? 

When I first saw this photo, I thought, "I guess that's sort of an interesting cocktail dress Leona is wearing."

And then. AND THEN:

Fug or Fab: Eva Mendes

It's not that I hate things that are sparkly.

It's that I think Eva Mendes may have arrived at this event via confetti cannon.

AMANDA SEYFRIED: Hi Julianne. You look great.

JULIANNE MOORE: So do you. You could maybe use some lipstick?

AMANDA; You could, too. But honestly...you look young and adorable.

JULIANNE: So do you. Actually, I feel like we could almost trade outfits.

AMANDA: Looking so cute in unison is so BORING.

JULIANNE: I wonder what we wore to the movie premiere later.

Fug or Fab: Nelly Furtado

Let's talk about Nelly Furtado.

91925254.jpg

First of all, am I the only person who thinks Nelly looks like Courteney Cox? Not exactly, but as though they could be related -- like Nelly is Courteney's cousin, or something. Angle for a gig on Cougar Town, Nelly. I hear it's funny.  Second, this outfit: I feel like it's SO CLOSE to being awesome, and yet something about it has pushed it off the Awesome Highway and into the gutters of Almostville. I fear I must lay the blame at her hose and shoes. They're sort of dragging your eye down, like an anchor. And the last thing you want your legs compared to is an anchor, am I right?

Iman: Edgy and divatastic?
