Kristen Stewart’s Shimmering Naked Dress Channeled Marilyn Monroe

March 14, 2022 at 05:35PM Arriving at the 2022 Critics’ Choice Awards in a gleaming champagne-colored gown, Kristen Stewart brought the glitz to the red carpet. Nominated for her role as Princess Diana in the hit movie “Spencer,” the millennial actress donned a festive look that rose to the occasion. The sheer metallic design features a scoop neck, thin straps, and a figure-skimming bodice, referencing the iconic marquisette dress Marilyn Monroe wore for then-President John F. Kennedy’s 45th birthday. The “Twilight” star kept accessories minimal with only a few rings visible on her right hand. Her hair, which was parted to one side, was styled in old Hollywood waves and allowed the shimmery ensemble to shine. Joining her at the awards ceremony was fiancée Dylan Meyer, who complemented Stewart’s outfit in a white satin pant suit, comprised of a midriff-baring cutout bra top,…

March 14, 2022 at 05:23PM Image Source: Getty / Tolga Akmen It’s not often Emma Watson poses for a red carpet, but when she does, she’s sure to turn heads. At a pre-BAFTA dinner hosted by Charles Finch and Chanel on Saturday evening, Watson dressed in a surprising look for the actor: a lingerie-inspired velvet cutout dress from London-based Albanian designer Nensi Dojaka’s fall 2022 collection, worn under a structured, sharp-shouldered blazer. The emerging designer has been on the rise and worn by the likes of Zendaya, Dua Lipa, and Rihanna since she won the prestigious LVMH Prize last year. As Watson is known for her feminine, polished style, which often includes elegant power suits and preppy, sustainable pieces, her shoe choice for the event was even more unexpected. Her striped thigh-high boots from the coveted Jimmy Choo and Mugler capsule collection took…

Elizabeth Olsen’s Red Carpet Look Could Pass as a Dress and a Jumpsuit

March 14, 2022 at 04:20AM Elizabeth Olsen arrived at the 27th Critics’ Choice Awards in a custom made Giorgio Armani design that resembles a dress at first, but upon closer look, you can see it’s actually a jumpsuit. Joining other fashionably-dressed celebrities who wore red to the event, the “WandaVision” star donned a burgundy ensemble that features a plunging neckline, and puts her sparkly Cartier pendant necklace on full display. The in-person red carpet showcased the latest and boldest in celebrity style, and Olsen took part in the fun while enjoying her nomination for Best Actress in a Limited Series or Movie Made for Television. Working with stylist Elizabeth Stewart, who confirmed the jumpsuit an Instagram post, the California native opted for wide-leg trousers, which were visible under a parting middle seam that started at the belted waist. Still, you wouldn’t be alone…

Roasted Cabbage Steaks with Chickpeas and Creamy Herb Sauce

Roasted Cabbage Steaks with Chickpeas and Creamy Herb SauceMarch 14, 2022 at 09:00AM Looking for a delicious plant-based meal that’s filling and satisfying? Look no further than these Roasted Cabbage Steaks with Chickpeas and Creamy Herb Sauce. You’ll wonder what took you so long to try roasted cabbage steaks and will quickly start pouring this creamy herb sauce on everything! This recipe was developed for somewhat selfish reasons. I was complaining to Jess one day that C isn’t a fan of chickpeas. The man will eat hummus for days but for some reason he’s just not a big fan of chickpeas. So of course, being the loving wife I am I decided to convince him he liked chickpeas…rather than just omit them. I know – it must be so fun being married to me! We sneakily tested this recipe while C was travelling…

Jodie Turner-Smith Makes Waves in a Gucci Dress Fit For Poseidon

March 14, 2022 at 02:07AM There’s a new ruler of the sea in town and the waves followed her straight to the red carpet. Jodie Turner-Smith attended the Critics’ Choice Awards on Sunday in a Gucci dress made of teal silk satin that ruffled against the red carpet like waves crashing on the beach. Beautifully tailored, the asymmetrical gown featured a puff sleeve to the right and an oversized ruffle detail across Turner-Smith’s left shoulder. Like water trickling down a fountain, the expertly-placed ruffles led our eyes all the way around the backless gown to the satin train flowing behind her. Turner-Smith kept the ethereal theme going with a pair of leather platform sandals, emerald and diamond jewelry by Bulgari, including a snake bracelet, and a silver headpiece embellished with emeralds. Short of carrying a trident and using actual water to levitate into…

Similarly, Issa Rae’s Carolina Herrera ruffle gown showcased a pretty flower print, and included flower details at the neck. Scarlet was everywhere on the spring 2022 runways, so…
