it's a Nina Ricci dress, but it's less impactful for the actual design than for its particular place in Reese's personal history -- she had just separated from her husband and was "I'm a new me!" to the world, complete with cool hair and curvy, sexier dresses. It's sort of regal yet youthful and slightly more provocative than Reese's usual fashion modus operandi. Yeah, the look on her face could probably cut you in half, but she'd look fabulous doing it.

A legitimate excuse to break out that calf-length denim skirt and prairie print oxford and get a dude in your life to wear a nice suit and carry a Bible around.

which one again!) gets so worked up over Waitress, sometimes she even turns a little teary-eyed during the g.d. trailer. A lot of those tears are for Adrienne Shelly, but they're also for all those heart-in-throat moments - like when Andy Griffith says, "Pie lady, listen to me: This life'll kill you," or the birth scene, or how Adrienne Shelly's character thinks she's ugly. If anyone ever tells you s/he feels nothing for Waitress, you'd best knock on their forehead to make sure they're not made of stone.

The Royal We of nogoodforme.com is all about loving fashion and loathing The Fashion Industrial Complex (tm). We use the term FIC (tm) to encapsulate the stupid, boring, problematic garbage that unfortunately comes along with how most people think about fashion: Brands and Dollaz and Misogyny and Elitism, Oh My! As such, I generally try to think about fashion in terms of self-expression and garments and innovation rather than associating myself with any particular style-istic segment or school of thought. Never-the-lesser, in 2008, my brain has been consistently blown by the intensely awesome and truly exciting sartorial culture coming out of Australia right now. Seen below is my petite tribute to the Maximum Aussies who have rocked my world over the course of the past twelve months:

something of a Toronto institution; it's one of those vegan/vegetarian restaurants that people who eat meat eat at by choice. In the dead of this dismal winter, all I ever want to eat is their coconut tempeh appetizer and "Tangled Thai" salad (shredded carrots, daikon, and golden beets, Napa cabbage, chopped peanuts, cilantro, cucumber, freakin' Goji berries, puffed quinoa, crispy tofu cubes, and peanut-lime dressing)- it's like edible Vitamin D and melotonin.

Forget her wedding dresses: her ready-to-wear is probably as close to couture as an American designer can get. Romantic, experimental, and sumptuous, it's evMatthew Williamson is the thinking man's Roberto Cavalli. Actually, no, scratch that- what I actually mean is: Matthew Williamson is the thinking man's Roberto Cavalli on acid. And, as we all know, anything that can be described as "something on acid" is highly preferable to plain old non-acidic somethings. I am absolutely mad for Matthew Williamson's fearless use of colour, pattern, texture and tackiness; no designer in the world can make a slamming party frock quite like my boy Matt Werything that I'd imagine a modern-day Edith Wharton heroine would wear
