I’m sorry, I just became enchanted with these photos of Rooney Mara and Casey Affleck in LA over the weekend. They attended the LA Film Festival premiere of their film Ain’t Them Bodies Saints on Saturday. Rooney wore an ensemble (these are separates) by JW Anderson. I’m surprised she’s not wearing Calvin Klein, since she was just named CK’s newest Aloof-Face. I’m actually kind of shocked to see Rooney is something so… revealing? So fluttery and feminine and kind of hippie-ish too. I always think of her style as “try-hard modernist” and “aloof avant-garde” – lots of structured clothes, nothing too “pretty”. But this is so different. What’s up?

But really, look at her hair! I feel bad for her because I think she had to do some crazy things to her hair for The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, and she’s still dealing with hair issues because of it. Either that or she just has no idea what to do with her hair and she thinks giving herself a faux-mushroom-cap hair style is the height of style. By the way, I think my favorite photo is where Casey and Rooney are trying to do a squint-off with the cameras. They’re both trying so hard to look hardcore. HA.

Ain’t Them Bodies Saints is set in the 1970s, and Casey plays an outlaw escaping through Texas, trying to reunite with his wife, played by Rooney. It’s sort of brilliant to put Rooney and Casey together in a film, because they are two actors who go out of their way to sulk through promotional duties, both are impossibly pretentious and self-obsessed and both are known for biting the proverbial hand that feeds them. If you’d like to read something really funny, you should skim this Grantland interview with both Casey and Rooney during the Cannes Film Festival. It’s really funny for all of the wrong reasons.

Here are some nice new photos of the last (officially now) public appearance for Duchess Kate before she gives birth. Last Thursday, Kate did her last solo appearance for a cruise liner christening (she’s the “godmother” of the ship), and Saturday’s activities are widely considered to be Kate last “for real now” appearance before giving birth next month. Kate, William and Harry (and everyone else) attended the Trooping the Colours parade for the Queen’s birthday. Everybody got to ride in carriages and all of the men (and HRH The Princess Royal, Princess Anne) got to wear their military finery.

Kate rode in the carriage with Duchess Camilla and Prince Harry. I’m including a photo where Harry is looking at Kate like she’s the love of his life, so… I don’t know. I think Harry always looks at every woman like that. He falls in love fifty times a day. Prince William wasn’t in the carriage because he was “on duty” as a colonel of the Irish Guards (thus his red uniform), and he rode on horseback with his dad behind the Queen’s glass carriage. After the carriage ride, Kate joined the royal family on the balcony to watch the jets put on a show.

Kate’s coat is Alexander McQueen, surprisingly enough. I’m guessing it’s Sarah Burton for McQueen because… yeah. It just looks like Sarah Burton. The Jane Corbett hat is a repeat, a recognize it from an appearance last year where Kate wore another pink coatdress. The pink is… okay, I guess. I like Kate in bolder, vivid colors, but she’s got a real love for pastels. This is too saccharine for my taste, and it makes me wonder why she’s all “PINK!” for her last appearance. Is she expecting a girl after all? *please don’t name her Diana, please don’t name her Diana*

Huzzah! Finally, we got these photos. In Southhampton, England today, Duchess Kate made one of her last (if not THE last) public appearances before giving birth. This was a long-scheduled appearance to christen the Royal Princess cruise ship. Can I just say? This is probably my favorite maternity look on Kate so far. The coat is a “Dalmatian print” Hobbes coat which retails for about $265. It’s really great, and it surprises me how good she looks in a bold, monochromatic print. I prefer this kind of style to her (at times) too-fussy, too-mumsy style with all of the lace and florals and pale colors.

Following in the footsteps of Queen Elizabeth II and her late mother-in-law Princess Diana, Kate Middleton traveled to Southampton, England, on Thursday, June 13, to name Princess Cruises’ latest ship, the Royal Princess. The pregnant 31-year-old dressed her baby bump in a $265 dalmatian print coat by Hobbs and wore a black fascinator for the occasion. Looking radiant as ever, the Duchess of Cambridge walked the blue carpet as the Band of Her Majesty’s Royal Marines Portsmouth and The Pipe Band of 1st Battalion Irish Guards gave her a musical salute.

The event marked Middleton’s final solo engagement before her maternity leave begins; she is due to give birth on July 11, sources reveal in the June 24 issue of Us Weekly.

Upon her arrival, Middleton shook hands with officials and representatives from the cruise line. After a performance from “Pocketful of Sunshine” singer Natasha Bedingfield, Middleton met two young children. Middleton invited the Rowbotham family, from Milton near Cambridge, to join her for the celebrations; they received care and support from EACH, one of the many charities she supports.

Alie Rowbotham attended the naming ceremony along with her husband, Mick, and their children Izzie, 15, and Charlie, 8. Her son George was diagnosed with a brain tumor in July 2003; she spoke to reporters about the organization and Middleton’s involvement before Thursday’s ceremony. “Izzie and Charlie will be giving the scissors to HRH The Duchess of Cambridge to cut the ribbon,” she said. “We’re all very excited about meeting The Duchess of Cambridge and very proud and honored to be representing EACH. We’re very passionate about the work EACH does with children and their families, having experienced the difference that it makes firsthand.”

She added, “The hospice really is a place for living with so much to offer. George especially loved the sessions in the swimming pool and sensory room. It was a place where he could live, rather than being ill all the time. He had lost his sparkle when he was in hospital but at the hospice he shone again and those memories we will remember forever.”

Middleton later walked to a podium where she smashed a bottle of Moet et Chandon champagne against the hull of the Royal Princess. She then looked on as the Band of Her Majesty’s Royal Marines Portsmouth and The Pipe Band of 1st Battalion Irish Guards staged a colorful parade to round off the christening ceremony. Afterwards, Middleton took a tour of the boat.

The vast cruise ship features a games room, a casino, a spa, a 28-foot glass-bottomed viewing gallery, 10 restaurants and 1,780 luxury staterooms. Despite the ship’s regal name, the vessel was not named after Middleton. Instead, the name was taken from the original Royal Princess ship which launched in 1984 and is no longer in service; Prince William’s late mother christened that liner.

Enjoy these photos, because this might be the last time we see her during her pregnancy. She’s going on “maternity leave” now. I’m sorry, but that’s still funny to me. Maternity leave isn’t a joke, but the idea that Kate – who has barely made THREE public appearances in the past seven weeks – is only now going to “stop working” and “go on leave” is still ridiculous. At least she’s going out with a bang, though. I really do love this coat. It’s a great and appropriate length too, and Kate’s face looks so much softer with a little bit of extra weight.

Here are some assorted photos from last night’s European/London premiere of Man of Steel. I didn’t talk about this when I covered the LA premiere photos, but it feels like it’s been a really long time since a major “blockbuster” movie had its first premiere in LA. It used to be that the first premiere of most Hollywood movies were held in LA. Nowadays, they go to London, then they do a European tour for a week, THEN they do the promotional rounds in America. Which just goes to show you how important the foreign markets have become for Hollywood. It also shows you how much Superman is considered to be the most “American” of superheroes, so I guess they’re hoping for a big box office in America first and foremost.

Anyway, these photos are nice but I’m not blown away by anyone. Henry Cavill’s hair is still bugging me, but this suit is so much better than his ensemble in LA. He’s been wearing Tom Ford for the premieres, and Tom Ford gave him a much better suit for the London premiere. Amy Adams is wearing Valentino. It’s okay. Not my favorite, but it doesn’t suck. My least favorite thing is the headband – too cutesy.

As for the other men of Man of Steel – my Michael Shannon crush is becoming a big problem. Why isn’t he mine?! As for Russell Crowe… my God. I would STILL hit it like a house on fire. It’s something particular about Rusty… he just still does it for me.

PS… Still no Gina Carano. Huh.

These are photos of The Bling Ring‘s special screening in New York City last night. I’m still not convinced that this movie is going to be “all that,” and while I did enjoy Sofia Coppola’s The Virgin Suicides and Lost in Translation, her directing style turned to one of excess somewhere around Marie Antoinette. Oh well, I’m sure this movie probably wasn’t that expensive to make with Emma Watson as the only real star plus a bunch of unknown actresses and actors, so the film will probably make modest returns.

Emma wore a rather subdued little black dress that I thought was pretty cute and featured a v-neck and low back with a slightly ruffled hemline. This is the sort of dress I would wear if I could get away with not wearing a bra. I can appreciate that while Emma is the star of the premiere, she didn’t wear anything huge or flashy, and she looks so lovely while embracing her natural skin color and not going for the orange vibe like her movie character. Plus, that sleek hair and slash of crimson lipstick are just yummy.

Sofia Coppola played it safe on the red carpet as per her usual routine with a floaty white dress that looks like an extra-long t-shirt. Her hair looks exactly like mine does at this very moment, which tells me that we’re both in need of a change.

Here are photos of Jonny Lee Miller, Steven Tyler, and Terry Richardson. I like to call this series, “From Hot … to Not.”

Here are some photos of Amy Adams and her partner/baby-daddy Darren Le Gallo at last night’s LA premiere of Man of Steel. Amy wore a Nina Ricci Fall 2013 gown which I’m not loving. It’s an interesting design, and maybe I would have enjoyed it more for an awards show red carpet, and only then with completely different styling. I’m sorry, but her hairstyle sucks. I love Amy, and I think she’s so pretty/cute, but the styling is TERRIBLE.

Amy recently appeared on Chelsea Lately and she had one funny story – about her daughter goosing Henry Cavill – and one interesting story. It seems that Amy is quite positive that she doesn’t want another kid. She’s sure that Aviana is going to be an only child. That’s quite shocking in a world where Hollywood moms (and regular moms) are always talking about wanting more babies, more babies, etc.

Amy Adams is raising a little flirt! During a June 6 appearance on Chelsea Lately, the 38-year-old actress revealed that her 3-year-old daughter Aviana (with fiance Darren Le Gallo) developed a crush on Man of Steel’s leading man, Henry Cavill.

“When she met him, she liked the look of the suit, so when he turned around, she goosed him!” Adams said of her only child’s first meeting with Cavill, 30. “You know what Henry said? ‘Like mother, like daughter!’”

“He was funny,” Adams said of the English actor, who’s dating action star Gina Carano. “He has a great sense of humor.”

Adams — who also admitted that her own “first crush was Superman” — said she had been vying for the role of newspaper reporter Lois Lane for nearly a decade. “I auditioned twice before. There was an incarnation that J.J. Abrams scripted and then the one they did a couple years ago [Superman Returns],” she said. (Kate Bosworth was cast opposite Brandon Routh in the 2006 adaptation, which was widely panned by critics.)

Engaged to actor/artist Le Gallo since 2008, Adams told host Chelsea Handler that she has no desire to have any more children. According to the famous redhead, when she tells people that Aviana will be an only child, they often look at her quizzically.

“People really give you a look. They’re like, ‘When are you having another?’ And you’re like, ‘I’m not.’ And then you feel like a bad person,” the Colorado-raised star said. “They’re like, ‘Don’t you want to give her a sibling?’ But I had so many siblings that I’m like, ‘God, no!’”

[From Us Weekly]

Tina Fey talked about the only-child thing too – that when she was deciding whether or not to have a second child, people were flat-out offended that she would even consider only having one kid. Apparently, it’s no longer popular to just do one kid. Which is weird. I’m an only child and I love it. Only children are underrated! Also: how cute is the “like mother, like daughter” story?

Debra Messing walked the Tony Awards red carpet with her jumpoff (and “Smash” co-star), Will Chase (shown below), and I never thought about it until now but … “Will & Grace 2.” Debra looked like an awful mess last night in this Matthew Christopher Marchi Sobaski couture dress. Now the dress itself isn’t really the issue here but the way that Debra is wearing it. Okay, I take that back — the dress is part of the problem. I’m usually a sucker for an a-line party piece, but Debra looks altogether uncomfortable in this outfit, and the off-the-shoulder aspect isn’t helping matters. The black satin is also a bit too princessy and severe when coupled with Debra’s Croydon-facelift hairstyle.

Debra accessorized with strange Fred Leighton earrings and a girlish Judith leiber clutch. I used to enjoy Debra so much on television, and I remember when she was (fancifully) hailed as the second coming of Lucille Ball. But Lucille would have never injected her face with so many fillers and Botox variants. Oh, Debra.

Jane Krakowski looked saucy as always in a white Escada gown with plenty of sparkly sequins and a tiny faux-train. I feel like Jane wears this sort of dress all the time, but it really suits her although I think she’d look cute in spaghetti straps. Just a suggestion. This dress would have been slightly boring, but the slim belt breaks up the monotony. Janes hair and make up look lovely and appropriate for the occasion.

Martha Plimpton (and I confess to not really keeping up with her career since the late 1980s, aside from Beautiful Girls) presented last evening, and this is the most dressed up I’ve ever seen her. Martha wore a gorgeous red Lorena Sarbu crepe gown with a sheer embroidered overlay at the top. The dress’ cut is quite flattering to her figure, and her hair is still kind of 1980s, but that’s okay because I was so jealous of her for dating River Phoenix.

Cyndi Lauper looked completely zonked out, and of course she dressed like a bit of a weirdo … she’s Cyndi! Asking Cyndi to dress in a conventional manner is like expecting Florence Welch to dress up like Katy Perry. It ain’t happening. Does Cyndi look a little bit wasted to you?

Sienna Miller has been getting photographed a lot lately, have you noticed? We haven’t been publishing that many photos of her, but it seems like every day, I look through our new photos and there’s Sienna and (usually) baby Marlowe. I think Sienna is attempting the tried-and-true “Celebrity Mom Whitewash” – where all of an actress’s past scandals are simply washed away with an adorable baby.

Anyway, these are some photos of Sienna, her baby-daddy Tom Sturridge and Tom’s mom at last night’s Tony Awards. This is just an FYI in case you haven’t seen Sienna on a red carpet lately – she’s really lost her spark. She was once a really interesting Fashion Girl, but now… not so much. The pink Burberry Resort 2014 dress is okay, I guess, but not really for the Tonys and perhaps not in that size? It is extremely ill-fitting on top. Her makeup is especially terrible too, and that headpiece… not with that dress, right? As for Tom, I think he’s a mess with that hair. He’s an attractive guy, but he’s one of those “pretty” men trying to tamp down his pretty.

More photos from the Tony Awards… here’s a ‘stached Tom Hanks and his lovely Rita (meter-maid!!! –sorry). It’s like Rita’s dress has a built-in sash! She’s a beauty queen representing the great state of Awesome.

And here’s Neil Patrick Harris and his husband/partner/fiancé David Burtka. David’s face always annoys me, but I think my biggest problem in these photos is the lighting. NPH was the host of the Tonys again! I’m including his opening number below.

Here are some more photos from last night’s Tony Awards! You can read some coverage of who won what and how here at People Mag, and here’s a full list of the winners. We’re just doing the fashion for the most part because I don’t think anyone around here watched it. So, here is Scarlett Johansson last night. You may remember, ScarJo has already WON a Tony. She won a few years ago when she was doing that Arthur Miller revival. She also did a revival of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof this year, although I heard it was not great and the ticket sales were meh. ScarJo wore this Saint Laurent mini-dress/tuxedo thing. I don’t hate the idea of it, but the execution is… cheap-looking. I think it’s the lace thing on the top, with the ruffle. It looks like ScarJo paired a really great cropped tuxedo jacket with a cheap mall dress. Plus, that lipstick shade sucks on her.

I think I’m becoming a major Zachary Quinto fan. He was one of the best parts of Star Trek Into Darkness, and that man can wear the hell out of suit and tuxedo. Quinto’s tux last night was Dior Homme. Perfection.

I have to say, Jake Gyllenhaal looks really good in his midnight-blue tux. He needs to ease up on the “I’m smoldering” squint though.

And finally, here’s Sigourney Weaver in a dress that I’m absolutely positive I’ve seen on her before. Whatever, she’s awesome. She can wear repeats if she wants.

Here are more photos from yesterday’s royal wedding in Sweden. I covered all of the wedding dress stuff in a previous post, and this post is dedicated to the royal wedding guests. Let’s start with the bride’s sister, Crown Princess Victoria, her husband Prince Daniel and their daughter Princess Estelle. Victoria wore “a greige rosé silk organza gown with layers of hand-dyed tulle accented with pearls and Swarovski crystals in amethyst and pale grey opal by Swedish couturier Fadi El Khoury.” THIS IS GORGEOUS. RCFA thinks it’s kind of up-stagey, which… yeah. It is. Then again, Maddy’s wedding gown was really underwhelming, so it’s not like Victoria had to try that hard to upstage her little sister.

Also, I wanted to show you what Victoria wore to the pre-wedding gala dinner on Friday night – she wore this muted Jenny Packham gown and once again, she looked fantastic. This to me is how a lady should dress for a wedding.

Here’s Queen Silvia and her son Prince Carl Philip, in uniform. MMm. I was going to include photos of Carl Philip at the pre-wedding gala, but they are so delicious I think I’m going to need a separate post.

Princess Marie Chantal Miller and Prince Pavlos of Greece. I have never understood why Marie Chantal is a thing. Remember when Vogue used to report on her comings and goings endlessly? The Greek royal family got thrown out of Greece, so it’s not like she’s a real princess or anything. Anyway, she looked like she smelled something in every single photo. I also think it’s tacky to wear white or off-white to a wedding if you’re not the bride.

Princess Charlene attended the wedding solo. She looks so sad and thin and druggy. Poor Charlene. Her gown is Akris, one of her favorite labels (if not her favorite). It’s a pretty gown, I guess, although I don’t know who wears chocolate brown to a summer wedding. I’ve already gotten emails about Charlene’s lack of jewelry p0rn, so have it. She should have worn SOMETHING. Earrings, a necklace, something.

I didn’t even recognize Prince Edward in uniform. Sophie looks kind of dowdy.

Denmark’s Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary. I’m trying to figure out if her skirt is lined. Is that scandalous? Frederik looks really cute in uniform.
