We seriously thought Mischa Barton was dressed up as Queen of the May or something when we first looked at the headband she’s wearing here. Then we remembered it’s only March, and May Queens don’t normally wear jeans and riding boots, so our mistake. We still think she looks a bit like a bridesmaid who didn’t have time to change into her dress, though. Is it weird that we actually quite like it?

Helena Bonham Carter at the Alice in Wonderland Paris Premiere

We wish the Alice in Wonderland premieres could go on forever, just so we could see what Helena Bonham Carter would wear to all the premieres.

Here she is in Paris, looking very “Alice” appropriate, without straying a centimetre from her own signature style. We don’t usually covet Helena’s clothes, but we DO love that hat…

Jennifer Aniston attends the premiere of “Bounty Hunter” at Ziegfeld Theater in New York

OK, we THINK we see where Jennifer Aniston was going with this. Possibly. Maybe. It’s elegant. It’s… drapey. It’s flesh toned, which helps give it that “Hey, look, I’m dressed like a statuette!” look so many celebrities seem keen on these days.

But… it’s just a bit MUCH, isn’t it? A bit TOO drapey. A bit TOO flesh-toned. A bit “I got creative with a bedsheet, and look what I came up with!” It’s also overwhelming her lovely figure a little, which is a shame, because from the top down we were totally on board with it.

All of that said, we love Jennifer and we think she’s pulling this one off: just. What do you reckon?

Monica Cruz attended the Fotogramas Awards last night in order to pick up an award on behalf of her sister, Penelope, and we bet there were a few double-takes from the people in the audience, because the family resemblance is pretty clear, no? Looks like the Cruz family were definitely blessed with good genes, too: both sisters are absolutely gorgeous, and we like Monica’s black mini dress and nude coloured suede shoes, too.

What Celebrities Wear to Airports: Whitney Port in shredded jeans

LFI WHITNEYPORT004 What Celebrities Wear to Airports: Whitney Port in shredded jeans

It’s only been a couple of months since our last flight, but it looks like in that time air travel has become much more dangerous: poor Whitney Port has had her jeans almost shredded on her flight to Sydney!

Were there snakes on the plane? Was the Fashion Ripper on the plane? We’ve seen enough of this destroyed denim now to know the answer to both of those questions is “no”, but what do you think of jeans that look like this? Are you a fan?

All Kinds of Wrong

Oh, that Alexnder Wang! Such a kidder! As if it wasn’t bad enough that he’s already damaged our eyesight once this year with his creation of the Worst! Shorts! Ever!, he’s now gone ahead and ATTACHED those shorts to a pair of drab looking sweatpants. AS IF WE WOULDN’T NOTICE.

Let’s see:

- Clothes That Are Stuck Together - Check
- Peep Toe Boot Rule in effect – Check
- Sweatpants that should never been seen in public – Check
- Overly literal application of the Underwear as Outerwear trend – Check

It’s affirmative, folks: we have ourselves a fully-fledged crime of fashion right here. These are $115 at Saks Fifth Avenue.
