Even with the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes still ongoing, it feels like so much is happening the Venice Film Festival closed this past weekend, the Toronto Film Festival started several days ago, and New York Fashion Week is super-star-studded. The Michael Kors show is always a popular ticket during NYFW, and the star of the Kors show is inevitably Blake Lively. Blake is all about Kors and she almost always comes out for his runway shows.
He usually gives her something from his new collection too, which explains why Blake wore this Michael Kors bellbottom jumpsuit. Thoughts? I don?t hate it, although I wonder if the jumpsuit would be better with a simple flared leg rather than full bellbottom. The golden shade complements Blake?s coloring and I love her curly hair and the overall ?70s vibe. While I think Blake generally has a Mall Girl aesthetic, she actually pulls off some generational vintage-style fashion.
Here?s Jenna Dewan at the Kors show? I only love the coat here. I would wear the hell out of that coat.
Kelsea Ballerini loathe the sunglasses, dislike the ?high fashion fanny pack? energy.
Olivia Wilde god help me, but I love this outfit. Great coat, great boots, amazing knits. I don?t even mind the fringed purse.
Ellen Pompeo kind of got the worst Kors outfit.

While I find most of Blake Livelys red carpet looks goofy, she usually does a good job at the Met Gala. To me, the Met Gala isnt a costume ball, to borrow from red carpet bloggers Tom and Lorenzo. The theme should influence how people look but it shouldnt always be super literal (except the one year when the theme was camp). You know, when Jared Leto showed up this year wearing a whole ass cat mascot costume, dressed as a six foot tall Choupette, I rolled my eyes so hard I almost gave myself an ocular migraine. I like that Blakes looks reference the themes and are still dramatic without being completely costume-y. Her preferred aesthetic is also a bit trophy wife but if I looked like that I too would show off my hotness. Her 2022 look, which referenced the Statue of Liberty, featured a dramatic reveal on the stairs where the skirt got changed around. Now that gown is in an exhibit at Kensington Palace called Crown to Couture. Its supposedly about how contemporary red carpet looks reference the 18th century Georgian period, an era between 1714 roughly 1830. I dont know that much about Georgian fashion so Ill have to take their word for it, but it features dresses worn by everybody from Audrey Hepburn to Beyonce to Lizzo, so its probably worth seeing if youre in London. When Blake visited the exhibit, she apparently thought the curators had made a mistake with how they displayed the dress. So she jumped over the rope and adjusted it herself!
On Tuesday, the Gossip Girl alum posted an Instagram story of her jumping over the ropes at the Crown to Couture exhibit in Londons Kensington Palace to quickly alter the display of her famous gown.
?When you?re the clown who hops over the rope at the museum to fix the exhibit,? Lively, 35, captioned over her video. ?Happy almost Virgo season folx.?
?So that you see what the transformation was,? the actress added, while crouched down, before turning the inside of the dress to face outwards on its center part with some assistance from jewelry designer Lorraine Schwartz.
Livelys dress appears alongside 200 other pieces at the exhibit inside Princess Dianas former home, including Lizzo?s 2022 Met Gala Thom Browne look and Lady Gaga?s 2020 MTV Awards dress by Christopher John Rogers.
The exhibition also features a number of historic gowns as it tells the story of how rock and red carpet fashion has been influenced by the royals of the Georgian era in the 18th century.
The mom-of-four also took time to admire the crown Schwartz created for her to wear with the dress at the 2022 Met Gala.
?This was absolutely surreal. Seeing this crown that we made in Kensington Palace, Lively captioned a follow-up post of her smiling beside a display cabinet. I still feel like a kid playing dress up every time I get to wear a gown and borrowed jewels out. To see it memorialized like this? just. Wow. Something I?ll never forget.?
[From People]
There isnt context in the clip from Instagram and its not on her stories anymore so Im guessing she asked the exhibit staff for permission before she did this? The dress was custom-made for Blake and its not like she messed with one of the gowns from the 18th century. But still, it comes off a little bit rude to me. Im sure whoever dressed that mannequin did it with great care. People who work as museum curators or conservationists typically have the most incredible attention to detail. They probably looked at dozens of reference photos and arranged the dress in a certain way on purpose. Plus, the exhibit space is different from the Met Museum steps, so it wont look exactly like it did in that moment when the skirt changed around. I guess it is a Virgo-like thing to do. One of my friends is a Virgo and I lovingly refer to her as an Australian shepherd because she is always herding people and attempting to organize things according to her extremely high standards. But calling it almost Virgo season when its Leo season until the 23rd of August iswell, kind of something Id expect from a fire sign like myself. We cant stand not being in the spotlight.
As an aside, because this story involves Kensington Palace: I lived across the street from Kensington Palace when I studied abroad. We had a few sightings of the princes and Kate. One day my American classmate came home from the high street overjoyed because shed just seen Prince Harry with his protection officer in TK Maxx buying underwear and socks. That was over ten years ago, so when he talked about shopping at TK Maxx in his book, I knew he was telling the truth, however implausible it seemed! (He preferred boxers, in case anyone wondered.)

In December 2021, Blake Lively launched her latest side-hustle, a line of mocktails and mixers called Betty Buzz. The idea behind it was that Blake doesn?t drink, but she still likes to party and she wanted some non-alcoholic ?mocktail? choices. Basically, she thought she could find a niche market of wealthy non-drinkers just itching to spend money on juice. Well, it looks like she could not find that niche market, because Betty Buzz is now doing a line of alcoholic ?spritzers? and Blake?s fans are not happy about it.
Drinking might not be Blake Livelys thing, but the Betty Buzz founder is expanding her lineup of non-alcoholic mixers to include spiked seltzer too. Only, not everyone is thrilled with the launch. On Thursday, Lively took to Instagram with the news of her latest venture, telling fans, Drinking isnt my thing. But for f* sake, flavor is. Homemade recipe. Real fruit. Real ingredients. Quality booze. No crap. Also a real time saver. Which is why I really did it.
The Simple Favor star has long been an advocate for sober living?despite her own husband Ryan Reynolds half a billion dollar gin business. However, Betty Buzz has long been branded as a mixer, be it for non-alcoholic mocktails or Aviation Gin cocktails.
When it comes to quality, were absolutely uncompromising. Whether its Buzz or Booze, everything we make is real and delicious, Co-Founder and Chairman of Betty B Holdings Andrew T. Chrisomalis said in a press release. The early success of Betty Buzz proved people expect more from what they drink. And were going to be the beverage company to serve it to them.
Fans were quick to call out Lively for her foray into the liquor aisle.
How can you market/create a product you don?t openly consume yourself? come the f on now.. one user wrote. Another chimed in, writing, If drinking really isnt your thing (which youre very vocal about) how about some NA options? Otherwise youre just in it for the money.
A third Instagrammer said, What a confusing way to promote your alcohol, by saying drinking isn?t your thing?
[From Delish]
I just? this whole thing seems so inauthentic to me, but that?s probably because I find Blake to be pretty inauthentic. She?s not a drinker, okay, but she does think that she?s some kind of businesswoman and she was desperate to cash in on some kind of non-alcoholic beverage market. When that market did not embrace her, she then turned to booze? which is probably what she should have been doing the whole time. THAT is the market, which her husband knows. People will spend money to drink a nice cocktail or spritzer, but they won?t spend the money to just drink a fancy juice. Her marketing is a disaster too this was probably meant as a side-hustle she could just promote herself and base on her own public persona, but obviously? that wasn?t successful. I don?t know, I don?t drink anymore but I was not tempted in any way to try Blake?s fancy juices. Other people were unimpressed as well, which is why she had to change the fundamental strategy. It?s the ?Allure of Antebellum? all over again.

I?ve never really been into Blake Lively as a person and the ?Allure of Antebellum? mess was probably the end of any warmth I had for her. I actually thought about the ?Allure of Antebellum? debacle recently, because the Duchess of Sussex has a similar obsession with alliteration when it comes to naming her Archetypes podcasts. I?ve joked on Twitter that if Blake ever turns up on Archetypes, Meghan should for-real name the episode Allure of Antebellum and they can sit there and deconstruct the ?archetype? of the Confederacy-loving, Old-South-glorifying, plantation-wedding-having clueless white racist woman trope. Blake would never.
The one thing Blake WILL do is have babies. Blake and Ryan Reynolds already have three children: James, 7, Inez, 5, and Betty, 2. Blake is pregnant again with their fourth. She?s got a nice-sized bump and we saw Blake and her bump for the first time in months. She attended the 10th Annual Forbes Power Women?s Summit on Thursday, and she wore a shimmery mod-style gold dress. I imagine Blake draping that white ribbon loosely across her neck and whispering ?I?ve never had a stylist, you know.? Congrats to them they spend most of their time in upstate New York, raising their children and trying not to remind people of their plantation wedding.

Blake Lively cares. She cares about fashion, and she wants to support designers and they want her to wear her clothes. Personally, I think Blake makes most high-fashion look downmarket and like she got it from the mall. So it was with this Versace look, which she wore to the 2022 Met Gala. Blake & Ryan Reynolds are regulars at the Met Gala, and this year they were co-chairs for the gala. First, a word about Ryan: he looked spectacular, like he stepped out of The Gilded Age. His Ralph Lauren tuxedo was velvet and a rich chocolate brown. As for Blake? her interpretation of American Fashion/Gilded Glamour was to wear a reversible/two-part Versace which was supposed to invoke the Statue of Liberty. As in, bronze when Lady Liberty started out, then oxidized into a greenish blue color. She ?transformed? on the steps. It was all a bit much, but whatever. At least she thought it out.
Gabrielle Union also wore Versace. This was fine many women just went with ?big, sparkly dresses? and that?s a legitimate interpretation to me. She looked lovely. I love that Dwyane Wade brought some heat.
Lily James just wore a relatively simple Versace dress. It looked nice on her.

Here are some photos from last night?s New York premiere of The Adam Project, the latest Ryan Reynolds film which also stars Mark Ruffalo, Zoe Saldana and Jennifer Garner. It?s about a time-traveling pilot (Reynolds) who teams up with his younger self and gets to meet his parents again or something. It seems like a family movie?
Blake and Ryan do a really good job these days of not oversaturating the market with coupled-up photos. Blake doesn?t really go to the opening of an envelope these days (it?s been years since she was like that), so basically, we only see them together when they?re on a red carpet for a premiere of one of their films, usually one of his. This is the first time they?ve been on a carpet together since last summer?s premiere of Free Guy.
For this premiere, Blake wore Atelier Versace, a really beautiful rainbow-esque dress which hugged her curves. What I find weird/charming is that before the red carpet, Blake and Ryan posed outside the venue and Blake wore a long jean jacket over her gown. I?m sure the jean jacket was designer and all that, but she looked very ?90s. The look without the jacket though? perfect. Her body looks incredible, three babies later.

Celebrities have been generous this month in the wake of natural disasters and tragedies. From George Clooney helping his Italian neighbors after a devastating flood, to Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan donating to causes benefitting people in Haiti and Afghanistan. If these acts of service dont warm your heart, then perhaps Ryan Reynolds and Blake Livelys donation to charities on the ground in Haiti after the 7.2 earthquake last week, will. Ryan and Blake donated $10,000 each to four different charities according to their spokesperson, who spoke to E! Online. Hope for Haiti thanked them in a tweet posted earlier this week. Below are a few more details from E!:
Hope for Haiti, an organization dedicated to providing support and partnership for the people of Haiti for over 30 years, publicly thanked the pair for their donation through their official social media accounts on Tuesday, Aug. 24.
Our entire organization would like to thank @vancityreynolds and @blakelively for their generous donation to our #HaitiEarthquake Response & Recovery efforts, the organization wrote on Twitter. This donation will help empower our team to continue to respond in the hardest-hit areas of southern Haiti in the days and weeks to come.
Blake and Ryans donation will be used to set up mobile clinics in the communities where theres the most need, as determined by the Ministry of Health, according to TMZ. The donation will also reportedly help cover food delivery distribution costs from World Central Kitchen
[From E! News]
I am loving how so many celebrities are using their influence and their checkbooks to help out in the time of need. It has felt like the month of August has been a month of disaster, sort of like January 2020.
Haiti itself has had a bad summer, from the execution of its President to the earthquake and tropical storm. It is like the people of Haiti cant catch a break. So it really did warm my heart to see that Ryan and Blake donated so much money. I love Ryan and Blake and their relationship. I also like the fact that they chose organizations that are actually on the ground in Haiti. I am glad that part of their money is going towards building clinics as well as to World Central Kitchen to make sure folks are being fed while they pick up the pieces of their lives. I hope that we continue to hear stories about people doing these wonderful deeds because they are a light in this seemingly dark time.
As for Ryan and Blake, these two previously gave 1.4 million to food banks and hospitals at the beginning of the pandemic and $200k to the NAACP during the BLM movement last summer, around the time they apologized for their wedding venue. I look forward to seeing their future humanitarian efforts. Hopefully, they will inspire others to do the same.

During the American coverage of the Olympics, we?ve been gifted with endless previews for Free Guy, Ryan Reynolds? latest movie. Every time I see one of the previews, I?m like ?wait, is that Jodie Comer?!?!? It is. Jodie Comer is Ryan?s costar and I bet they had a ball working together. Jodie didn?t bother flying in for the premiere of Free Guy though, so Ryan?s wife Blake Lively had to provide the glamour on the red carpet. Did it work?
Blake wore this Prabal Gurung gown to her husband?s premiere. I? do not understand. Why this dress? Why this vibe? I was shocked to find out that it is Prabal Gurung it?s so Vanna White, so game-show-hostess. I get that cut-outs and midriffs are ?in? for Pandemic Year #2 style, but this is a terrible example of how to do the trend! It just looks cheap. Oh well, at least Blake and Ryan look nice together. I like that he wore his glasses on the red carpet I actually think he looks more handsome with glasses.
This was apparently Blake & Ryan?s first red carpet together in two years! Most of that is because of the pandemic and Blake hasn?t been working that much in recent years, she?s been at home with the babies (which is work too!!).

I still remember when Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively got together. It was good gossip, because it seemed (at the time) like Blake basically dumped Leonardo DiCaprio to get with Ryan. A baller move, without a doubt. Blake and Ryan made sense from the start too she had been talking about wanting to settle down and start a family, and Ryan had spent years trying to find a lady to do just that. They went from ?just dating? to engaged/living together/married in about two seconds. This week, Ryan appeared on the SmartLess podcast with Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes and Will Arnett and he spoke a lot about Blake, how they started and how she?s basically everything to him:
When he met Blake: I met Blake on the darkest crease in the anus of the universe called Green Lantern, he said of the two co-starring in the 2011 superhero film. We were friends and buddies, and about a year and a half later we went on a double date but we were dating separate people. Reynolds, 44, went on to say that the two always kind of kept in touch sort of casually.
Begging: Next thing you know, she was going to Boston, I was going to Boston and I said, Well, Ill ride with you. We got on the train and we rode together, he continued. I was just begging her to sleep with me. When asked what the first move looked like, Reynolds joked: I would use a little bit of tear stick so I could get the tears kind of rolling ? then I would tell a little sob story about my life.
A fairytale: Jokes aside, Reynolds described the moment he knew he and Lively, 33, had gone from casually dating to a lifelong commitment as one those those silly moments out of a fairytale. A week later I was like, We should buy a house together, Reynolds added. And we did.
Raising their three girls James, 6, Inez, 4, and Betty, 1: ?They had a tough time,? he said about Zoom school for the two older girls. ?I was seeking out external help left and right. I was reading books. I was trying someway to steer the ship. Blake was so much better at it then I was because I?m also a child.?
How their marriage works: ?I?m present with my kids and my wife and my marriage is incredibly important to me and that friendship is important to me,? he said. ?Blake and I don?t do movies at the same time. When Blake is ready to do some stuff, I?ll step down and then we go back and forth. She?ll do a film and I?ll be with her on location hanging out with the kids.?
[From USA Today and JustJared]
We?ve actually heard some version of the ?we were on a double date with other people? story before. I tend to believe that Blake was with Leo DiCaprio and Ryan was with? someone, we don?t know. But the date clearly stuck in his head as the moment when he knew Blake was the one. Soon after, Blake and Leo were done and Blake and Ryan were taking romantic weekend trips to Charleston and house-hunting together.
