These are just so whimsical and fun. And now that I think about it, I don't think they ARE earrings -- I think what looks like earrings are attached to that headband. Which is good news for her earlobes.

Wise to just let that headpiece be the star, there. This dress is dishy, for sure, but also a dishy backdrop for, essentially, her head.

They both look very nice. Zoe appears to have had her baby sometime in the last month. She must be tired! I love her Severe But Pretty Governess vibe here. Carey looks very reasonable. Honestly, these two seem like generally Reasonable Women.

Olivia Wilde in Erdem

I don't hate this but it does feel a little overbaked to me.

Olivia Wilde of Yore DID always love a foofy princess dress, so she may be returning to her roots, with an edge.

(a) She's blonde now, and (b) SHE LOOKS GREAT.

Aldis Hodge

Speaking of looking great....HELLO.

I dig how surprisingly laid back this feels on them.

Dishy!

Jeremy Pope

The holiday season IS the best time to pull out your gold lamé turtleneck.

Jude Law

Classic and dashing, like a high-end watch ad.

Jamie Lee Curtis

Classic and dashing, like a high-end ladies watch ad.

Gabrielle Union in Prada

Not my favorite of hers lately, but that hair look is SO cute.

Joe Alwyn

He looks pleasantly rumpled of head, and well-tailored of body.

Jonathan Majors

Jonathan Majors wants us to know about his socks! Best I can tell, they're sparkly silver.

This is pretty dreamy.

Andrew Scott

Oh, neat, I had that shirt in 1997 and I wore it out to The Club with jeans.

Rooney Mara

Does Rooney have a BUSTLE? How intriguing!

Jeremy Strong

Jeremy Strong and his stylist seem to be moving away from his previously EXTREMELY QUIRKY vibe and into something much more classic, which I have to think is a choice made in part by his management team. He does look handsome.
