This is adorable and fun on her and it's also absurd that it isn't vintage. It FEELS vintage. It should be vintage.

And it's deliciously late 80s/early 90s from the bac. What a party dress!

It's obviously much more chill under this very classic Chanel coat.

Swinton loves it so much, it gets an enthusiastic embrace. If I were Penelope Cruz, I'd tell Javier Bardem that he's going to have to live with this being our holiday card. (Surely he'd agree!)

Yet again, I WILL join this woman's cult. I don't understand why no one has send me the membership papers yet.

Penelope Cruz

This definitely is confusing. She looks like she layered an Old Navy tank under a very skimpy Going Out Top to pretend it's day wear. It....does not work.
