I LOVE ScarJo’s fashion here. I mean I find her absolutely gorgeous, but retro is so perfectly HER…
+1
So true. She’s 1940’s beauty reincarnate, she really is.
I love ScarJo, but she and Christina Aguilera evoke the same type of smugness…errr…confidence?
This is true.
I believe the term you’re looking for is “tryhard”?
Hands down she nailed it. I love the coat and shoes.
Yowza! This styling is perfect for Scarlet.
Yep. Yep. Yep.
Perfection. I love her shoes too.
Brilliant. Dying for that coat. Oh Max Mara you always beckon.
Those sunglasses are doing her no favors…
Yeah, all I can see is her nose.
Thank you…
Ok, I felt like a horrible bitch for thinking that but yes! The nose!? Shes had a nose job right? Why is it looking so bulbous here, the angle?
Totally agree.
and the red lippy and white pasty make up. meh!
I don’t know if I like the coat or not. It reminds me of a Spyhinx cat. Looks like a Spyhinx cat bred with a cat with hair and this is the result of their baby kitten.
Oh, those poor ugly little cats. I would like to say they are so ugly that they’re cute but honestly, they kind of remind me of a ball-sack.
LOL!
Best comment ever! LOL
I also think it’s a tad too small, no?
That “fantastic coat” looks like a bathrobe to me.
Agree 🙂 don’t get it at all.
Agree. She has the worst taste.
Me either!
She’s so beautiful! I love the way she looks and is dressed! Just gorgeous…
LOL now that you’ve said that, I can’t unsee it.
It looked a little robe-y to me too! I was expecting, I can’t believe I’m saying this, a spectacular coat like Kim Kardashian has been wearing lately. Wow, that was even hard to type!
Meh. Kim’s coats never fit her, and end up making her look like a linebacker. This is the way the coat is supposed to fit – very 1940’s. I much prefer a closer fit that flatters the figure. I don’t get the point of Kim’s coats, always too wide through the shoulders and too long through the arms. Fit is everything.
The one in the top pic looks like something between a hotel bathrobe and those pj/robe ensembles Hugh Hefner wears.
The shoes are my favorite!
that’s some shoe p!rn we got here 😀
Loving the whole look.
Love Scarlett’s look.
The excerpt from the cat book is ludicrous. That author needs a new job.
Those shoes!!! If I had those shoes I would wear them and nothing else around the house all day long and I’d feel soooo purty!! Seriously, though, I absolutely love those shoes. She looks good as a pin-up. The shades definitely aren’t the best on her face, though. But those shoes… 😉
The shoes cause screams of joy to emanate from the inner core of my being.
Screams, I tell you.
I want those shoes!!
Re: Nigella and AJ—I could see it. Maybe if it was just loosely based on Nigella–not actually about Nigella. Because Angelina isn’t curvy, and she can’t do British accents (at least hers always sound weird to me, but I wouldn’t mistake the accent for anything else). But I think she would do a good job with that kind of a story.
I would love to see a movie based on Nigella’s life–I think that it would be something very important for young girls and women to see–that abuse isn’t always obvious. That all it takes is for you to let your guard down one time, and that’s all it takes for that person to weasel their way into your life, to the point to where you don’t feel like you can get out. But not for Lifetime…..
I’m trying to write a story about my great grandma–have any of you ever heard of the forced Catholic adoptions? Where the girl would be forced by the nuns to give up her baby for adoption? That’s what happened with my grandma. She was born in the mid teens of 1900…..she was raped by someone (she never told anyone, we didn’t find out until after her funeral) and gave birth when she was fourteen—but she never said one word about it, while she was alive. And although I think that it’s a lot better now, about speaking out, it’s not good enough. I do think there needs to be more taught, especially to younger people. Like the Steubenville case–when those two teenagers started crying when their sentence was handed down. They weren’t crying when they were raping that girl, or when they were filming it and putting it online.
Virgilia Coriolanus – I’d suggest looking at Linda Gordon’s Great Arizona Orphan Abduction. The first chapter discusses Catholic orphanages in NYC around the turn of the 20th century. It isn’t exactly what you’re looking for, but her footnotes might lead you to something useful. It is also a pretty crazy story; the past is so interesting, stranger than fiction indeed. Good luck with your writing!
You might also look into the activity of the Catholic church in Argentina and also in Spain. After the Spanish Civil War and on through the 1990s, the church took children away from women who were not on the winning side.
Here, you see:

That said, I am sorry about your grandmother. Her story deserves voice, and you write beautifully. I am sure you could do it justice, amiga.
That sounds like the movie Philomena with Judy Dench and Steve Coogan…….
Scarlet looks HOT. I love the retro pinup look….
And I would feel bad for Gabby, but I don’t. She’s a big girl–she knows what she’s getting into. And she obviously doesn’t care—I would be embarrassed if I was the one having to give interviews about my SO’s f-ckups. But she wanted it this bad. She could’ve dumped him, back when they found out that girl was pregnant–but she didn’t. Maybe that’s why her ring is so big. I don’t know–if I was her, I’d be squeezing as much jewelry out of that fool as I could, then I’d dump him a few days before the wedding, and put that sh-t on auction. Diamonds are a girl’s best friend, remember?
I don’t feel sorry for Gabby either. Her whole relationship with Dwade has been full of drama from the start. She desperately wants to be a basketball wife, no matter how f*cked up every thing is…Dwade IMO is not cute, looks like a fish to me lol. If he was super hot, maybe I’d put up with the bullshit (and keep all the jewelry like you!) 🙂
How could anyone think Angelina could play Nigella? What’s wrong with everyone?
I don’t see it either.
Why would anyone think Angelina would want to play Nigella? GMAB.Deadline.com just did interview with Producer Scott Rudin where its mentioned Angelina will likely be doing Cleopatra. Eric Roth is working on script.I doubt that she has even heard of Nigella.That rumor came from The Sun tabloid which is worst than Star Magazine.LMAO
I don’t get it either.
If we’re casting based on looks, maybe Anne Hathaway.
Pay attention Kim. That’s how you work a coat.
Yep! Not to mention everything else! Love that coat too.
The cop in the background looks like he’s kissing that other guy on the neck.
Oh yeah, dude is definitely enjoying himself, this touch is so delicate and sensual.
I love her retro look, very chic.
Not that she could ever play her, but I always thought Megan Fox looked like a young Nigella.
Katharine McPhee
I want EVERYTHING in this picture, the hair, coat, shades, shoes, lipstick…
Don’t get me wrong, I think she looks great, but is it not strange to be somewhere cold enough to wear a winter coat, and yet have bare legs and lacy open toe shoes? Just strikes me as odd.
I was thinking the same thing. Of course she might have jumped out of a car and rushed in. Mariah Carey does this all the time.
Yay, I’m so happy to see a St. Vincent mention here. I’m not entirely sure if If I’m into her new musical direction and this particular song but I have been a fan since her very first album. The album versions of her songs are usually overproduced but the live versions, especially from her first two albums – Marry Me and Actor, are magical. If someone doesn’t know her, I highly recommend songs Marrow, Black Rainbow and The Party from ACL concert on youtube.
Gabrielle Union! Girl, I do not need your do’s and don’t’s on love. Next we’ll have a Kardashian giving us advice on how to keep a private life.
Well I am still a fan of Gabby,loved Being Mary Jane and will check out Glamour interview.I dont believe the Pregnant rumors .
“If they ever make a movie about Nigella Lawson, everyone wants Angelina Jolie to play Nigella.” No, they do not. Horrible idea.
Right, and if they ever make a movie about Tom Cruise, everyone wants Alexander Skarsgard to play him.
The glasses are hideous and draw attention to her bulbous nose. Ugh.
You’re right! I’ve never noticed her nose before – now when I look at her that’s all I see.
Sorry but, on WHAT planet is the idea of Angelina Jolie-all 100 lbs of her-a good one, much less one that us “on the nose” in regards to her portraying Lawson?!
Nigela is a beautiful, voluptuous, naturally curvy lady who is KNOWN for that spectacular figure just as much as the food she makes. She makes me so proud to be a fellw busty hip-y chick 😀 Angelina is without a doubt a talented actress, but she could not less be a physical representation of this woman-think more along the lines of Christina Hendricks.
I’m really tired of all the painfully thin actresses getting thick(er) girl roles and thinking that fake body padding is enough & does it justice.
Really hoping this one isn’t true…
Not a ScarJo fan but I think she’s been looking better than ever lately. She’s doing a great job managing her career so props to her.
She’s incredibly over-rated in looks and talent. Without makeup, hair styling, and fashion no one would look twice at her on the street. Or even once.
I hate ScarHo’s coat.
Rachel Weisz should play Nigella.
Bingo! She would be great playing her!!!
I agree with this one……I love Rachel.
Love the coat, the hair and esp., the shoes. Scarlet brought her A-game.
everything but the nose..its akward.
Love the coat.
She looks so beautiful. Great outfit, hair, make up. Everything.
Re: ballerina story. Same stupid racist trash coming from some idiot. I hope those teachers get transferred to some unknown part of the country for their remarks. If Precious has made it all the way to the Bolshoi, the woman is extremely talented and they need her. They better get their act together fast.
Gee, somehow I’m not a fan of the coat or the shoes, and definitely don’t like the hairdo either……come to think of it, I’m totally not a Scarlett fan either.
where can i get that coat ????? I LOVE IT ! !
