Well, this is FESTIVE:

I feel like this dress will be worn all over the world by a certain subset of ladies to holiday parties -- some of them accessorizing it with light-up earrings in the form of trees -- and by a couple of women who work for the Tournament of Roses and are extremely committed to the concept of thematic dressing. And while it will be IDEAL for those specific ladies, I don't know that this whole Ruched Sleeves Ahoy look is going to set the night on fire for the rest of us. 

Congratulations to Dan, whose acrostic poem about Juliette Lewis edged out the competition with 30 percent of the vote and won this week's Freaky Fug Friday contest. To you, we offer thanks for making it so much fun and for taking the time to vote; to Dan, we offer the following real-estate.

So, Juliette
Those drapes you ordered
Really should be used
As drapes.
Now, it seems you think they
Go on your face.
Easy mistake.
Don't be embarrassed.
Anyone could make that error.
You're working it.
Sincerely, Lady Gaga

-- by Dan

Thanks again for what might be our favorite one yet -- we're so happy you're having as much fun with this as we are. We'll come back at you on Friday with another challenge. Until then, I'm Bob Barker, and have your pets spayed or neutered. Thank you and goodnight.


KRISTEN: TAYLOROHMYGOD.

TAYLOR: It's okay, we're in this together.

KRISTEN: I forgot how intense this is. I think some 40-year old mother just asked if she could feed my hair to her sick child.

TAYLOR: Where's Rob?

KRISTEN: I'm not doing photos with him tonight. It's too intense.

TAYLOR: What is? The pandemonium? Or the urge to rip off his clothes?

KRISTEN: EW. TAYLOR. Rob is like FAMILY to me.

TAYLOR: Sorry.

KRISTEN: The kind of distant-second-cousin family that it was okay to marry back in Elizabethan times.

TAYLOR: So...

KRISTEN: Just shut up and tell me I look pretty.

It is unusual indeed that I look at a picture of Halle Berry and think, "Eh. Halle doesn't look that great."

93097285.jpg

Because she is Halle Berry, and she usually looks great regardless of outfit. But this just fills me with eh, meh and feh, with a dash of blah and whole lot of BORING. Am I correct, or has Sharon Stone just ruined me for anyone else? Can this be fixed? Should it be fixed? How? Why? When? Where? Who? SO MANY QUESTIONS.


There are a lot of things going on here that I don't quite understand -- the skirt that gets shorter in front if the part of a lady she should want to hide the most; the pattern that looks like the tiled top of a small patio table -- but nothing is as confounding to me as Christian Serratos' mouth.

It was chilly last night in LA, but not THAT chilly. Did somebody give her a blueberry Popsicle in the limo? Is she about to turn completely blue and blow up the size of a planet and need to be rolled to Willy Wonka's juicing room? If not then I hope it's just a bad makeup choice, because if those lips have anything to do with the one soiled kneecap she appears to be rocking, I may quit on our nation's youth.

On the one hand, this is awesomely dramatic.

On the other, Christina looks like a super-villainess called The Black Widow. Although awesomeness and villainy are not mutually exclusive, as any sensible Miss Hannigan sympathizer can tell you. The cape is inane, sure, but something about this photo -- I believe it's the expression on her face, as if to say, "Yes, that's right, my spine is leaking fabric; it's $10 a yard, if you're shopping" -- inspired me to put it to a vote rather than file it away in my mental folder labeled, "Capes: Cracked-out."

Here are some Dos and Dont's for you, courtesy of Ginnifer Goodwin:

93048859.jpg

DO walk around every party looking like you think you're moments away from being jumped by whatever gaggle of old ladies from which you stole the shoulder pads stapled to your shoulders. Because, let's face it, you ARE moments away from that; might as well spoil their fun by letting then know YOU know they're coming.

DON'T even try to hide the fact that you glued together that dress last night during a marathon of that One Tree Hill season where Brooke Davis was both a cheerleader AND a clothing designer, and Dan Scott murdered his brother, and Lucas experienced a really informative coma. Because you will run into someone at the party who secretly loves that show, and wants to talk about why all of Peyton's various mothers have to die.

DO accessorize with fishing lures, because you never know: Someone MIGHT try to pair you with a six-pack of Miller Lite and sell you a gas station to a dude in a puffy orange vest, and sometimes that's how love happens.

I am so excited for you guys to see this. I am so excited about it that I actually turned to Heather at a party we were attending last night and whispered, "I can't WAIT to go home and write about Sharon Stone!"

Because it all started with this:

93098509.jpg

She looks like a spy who's about to burst into a Fosse routine in celebration of finally nabbing her man, complete with hat-related choreography. And truly that would be enough for me -- the leather! The lipstick! The headgear! I'm happy. But because someone loves me, that turned into THIS:

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.
