Last night, one of Fug Nation on Twitter (@thelemonofpink) made a "Carte Blanchett" joke and I am, as promised, stealing it. Because we DO give Cate Blanchett carte blanche sometimes when it comes to her wardrobe. Like SWINTON, she can often pull off that which mere mortals would be well advised to avoid. However, I think I'm cutting off her carte blanchett right here because:

I seriously do not even know what is happening here. It's like she walked out of her house wearing her welter-weight champion of the world belt, then realized it clashed with her jewelry and covered it up with a Hanes tee shirt she found in the trunk of her car. She HERSELF doesn't look bad, but that's because....you know, Carte Blanchett.
