I don't even care what this dress actually looks like; this photo is amazing. It feels like a Big Finish but I couldn't withhold it that long.

This lady stole her boyfriend's guardsman busby for her walk of shame, and is about to get him fired.

I want to turn those pants into a skirt, and then... make a totally different outfit.

She can't wear this to Buffalo Wild Wings anymore because the entire bar used pieces of her fringe to floss their teeth.

This is a mint chocolate chip sundae. Or maybe that was what I ate for dessert. Who can say.

I kind of love the orange gown in the background there; the one in front is so shapeless and dreary by comparison.

Clearly this dress began life somewhere with a hosepipe ban, irretrievably crippling its garden growth.

That bodice is so unflattering, but when either of the Emmas -- Stone or Watson -- wears this, I will probably think it's charming, because that's how they work.

This looks like a woman in a four-year old child's dress. Amal Alamuddin, BACK AWAY. We know how you feel about this label and its micro-hemlines. RESIST.

I just wish the middle bit didn't look so much like a diaper.

I like this, sort of, but the color combination is REALLY cacophonous.

I shouldn't like this, and practically speaking I don't really, but I am enjoying it in this context.
