A lesson from the young

Let them eat fabric!

In this day and age of sustainable awareness, it’s rather disappointing to see a famous designer like Donna Karan promoting the idea of wearing 50% more dress than necessary. How thoroughly irresponsible when something with that much fabric could clothe an entire runway of supermodels! For all we know, she could also be carrying around noxious carbon emissions in that fanny pack of hers.  Thank goodness for the new generation of ecologically responsible celebrities like Mischa Barton who are trying to make a difference through the power of recycling.

Sustainably developed

Emma Watson Rewards Copy Editors with Easy “Chamber of Secrets” Headline.

Oh Emma. My sweet, overacting, normal-seeming Emma. You hold a special place in my heart. Back in the day when I got dumped by the man I loved for a hirsute East-German amnesiac with a exceedingly tenuous understanding of the importance of wearing underwear, I pretty much stayed in my apartment for three months crying, drinking inexcusably bad pineapple-flavored rum straight from the bottle via a purple krayzee straw and watching Harry Potter on continuous loop until I fell asleep and my dog figured out how close my laptop.

Emma Watson in happier, less junk-revealing timesYou cannot, then, imagine my distress when I logged on to The Superficial and discovered (though I didn’t view the NSFW photos) that you have joined the cavalcade of pantsless party girls.

Ems, sugar, I get it. Daniel Radcliffe got his kit off in Equus, rode a few masked theater workers and it was a great career move. However, that was a play. This is real life, so unless you’re auditioning method-style for The Chronicles of Crotchia, you might want to let Hanes have her way with you from here on out. Besides, the part is TOTALLY going to La Lohan anyway.

Ayyyy! Puzzle corner

This week, we have prepared a sumptuous visual feast to test your knowledge of “Food in Film”. Slowly savour the montage below (click for a bigger version) and tell me which movies these food scenes belong to.

Answers to be put up on Wednesday morning.  In the meantime I’ll be sitting here over in the corner tucking into some fava beans and a nice Chianti.

Bon appetit!

To hat or not to hat

That is the question

Personally, when you’ve got such a splendid piece of tailoring from the neck down, I don’t think you should be drawing attention away from it.

Michelle Monaghan, on the learning curve

With all the breathless minute-by-minute coverage of Gwyneth Paltrow’s red-carpet heels, spare a thought for Michelle Monaghan and the Pac-man ghosts hanging around her ankles. She’s still a relative newbie at this game but given enough tabloid attention and designer freebies, she’ll be up to her ears in seven-inch Christian Louboutins in no time. And they might even fit properly too!

Blinky and Inky

That’s what friends are for

Quick, cover me, the photographers are here!

Sometimes there’s no knowing what will happen when you ask your overpriced hairstylist for ”a trim and some layers”. That’s when someone as understanding as Mary J Blige comes in handy – she’ll provide a comforting shoulder for you to cry on and better still, hide your mangled mane in.  See what a difference having a good friend makes!

I should have let Jaden cut it instead!
