This is v. sexy for Ralph. I don't hate it? Does the bodice feel like it would work better if it had been hitched up, say, an inch?

Having said that, I LOVE the back. Her bracelet is really cool, too.
Joan Smalls in TopShop

TopShop must be paying a lot of money for this placement, given that Anna has to approve what everyone wears. Let's just be honest. Their ad buy was good this year. Joan looks fine, but also Joan is a professional.

She looks very nice -- this is a line you can only get at Bergdorf's, which is so New York -- but mostly I want to talk about Cam Newton back there in his top hat. I couldn't get a pic of him for the dudes post, but the universe provides! (Click on the pic to see it huge, and you can get a better look at him.) He looks AWESOME.
Emma Roberts in DVF

This is fine, and would have been great for a movie premiere, but sort of bores me here. Frankly, while I love DVF for, like, Everyday Lady Wear, this did not feel like her event.
Doutzen Kroes in Brock Collection

Doutzen looks like the breathtaking peasant girl who captures the heart of a king and causes the downfall of a nation in this. Which I guess is a pretty good compliment to her, but not for the dress.

This is very silly and Austin Powers-y -- that's the second Austin Powers joke I've made in two days; that seems unbalanced -- but it really works on her, and it's fun. I'LL TAKE IT.

This is SO Carolina. It's both perfect and a little safe.
