Taylor went with color. I love that for her, and on a cold rainy weekend this all-leather ensemble probably felt nice. The zip-off skirt, I could leave, but the jacket is cute on her. I also realized that I had completely forgotten about Bones and All until right now, and it seems maybe the awards voters did too.

Pleated slacks do not need to become shorts. I don't even really need them as pants, either, but that would have looked better. Sorry, Michelle.

What a lovely day dress. During fashion week, we'll occasionally mark something as "great for an awards lunch or tea party," and this is exactly what we mean.

I guess her coat is her statement. I assume what she's wearing under it is not a silk jumpsuit that says DIET PEPSI FOREVER, but we will never know for sure so I guess I have no choice but to conclude that it's possible. Vicky, don't you WANT us to know for sure? Don't you want to avoid that rumor mill?!?!?

Simone Rocha is absolutely not for me -- I just don't think seatbelts need to be in my wardrobe any time OTHER than when I'm in my car -- but this is perhaps one of the least bad versions?

I need someone to do a deep dive on what you can really fit in one of those dog purses. I like a lot of the workmanship in this outfit, but as usual find the end product very overwhelming.

I am so conditioned to expect simple stuff from her, so hopefully this means she'll show up at the Oscars in full Lady Gaga cosplay.

I hope she wins the Oscar for her screenplay, so that we will have a woman talking about Women Talking, which may make some heads explode.

I can't even focus on the shirt because I THINK the pants have flaps that button, and might possibly also want to be shorts? PANTS MADNESS.

This is bright and fun, and the shoes are a total dud with it. So is the purse. They're FINE, but the color is a punt. I feel like she could've done fuchsia or green.

He wrote RRR, and that movie is a rrride. I am only an hour and 15 minutes into it, and already it has everything, Stefon-style. There are TWO MORE HOURS. What could be left, I asked myself. And then I saw a clip of a fire battle with tigers.

She looks foxy in this. She LOVES a push-up neckline. But it feels weird for an actual tea party.
