I love reading Candice’s work! ⬇️⬇️⬇️

🔥🔥🔥

I truly do not know how Tom Broecker does this every week — love this detailed look behind the scenes 🙌

There are families who will never be able to come back from this devastation, and many of them were in generational homes, passed down from people who bought homes in the 1970sand 80's in Altadena. All of the fires are a tragedy, but especially for those who don't have the resources to rebuild.

These extraordinary photos of the LA fires have been shared widely on social media, often without crediting the photographer. These are all the work of Ethan Swope, an LA-based photojournalist working for AP. You can follow his remarkable reporting here👇 www.instagram.com/ethanswopeph...

Apple TV+ is free this weekend. My utterly biased suggestion: Little America. Every ep is a short film based on true stories of immigrants to America. Some are funny, some are moving, some are thrilling. We wanted to make a show about immigrants that was, before all else, entertaining.

Well, 2024 was rough for freelance entertainment/fashion journalism. But I did have some career highlights, like zooming with Michael Mann for an hour (!) to discuss the fashion + cultural influence of "Miami Vice" for The Hollywood Reporter www.hollywoodreporter.com/lifestyle/st...

I had a great time talking to "Babygirl" costume designers Kurt and Bart about Nicole Kidman's icy neutrals, $$$ coats and that marigold blouse + cami 🔥 that telegraph who's in control. (They googled "interns in NYC" for Harris' baggy suits and parka.) www.refinery29.com/en-us/2024/1...

So much good watching!!

Finally entering the A Complete Unknown discourse with my interview with costume designer Arianne Phillips about how Timmy's jeans help chart those pivotal early years — and the actor's decision to wear that polka dot shirt: www.wmagazine.com/culture/a-co...

I had never watched a single episode of My So Called Life. I have now watched every episode of My So Called Life. I have a new favorite show and it is called My So Called Life. They've cracked the formula of somehow making you cry every single episode. #TeamBrianKrakowForever.

Gonna turn on SNL this morning

It was!!

I’d love a Black Doves spin-off focused on these 2 and their banter

So @fawnianewyork.bsky.social and I turned an unhinged text exchange into a dual byline, fully reported story about Pedro Pascal and bookazines. I’ve never had so much fun open.substack.com/pub/heywhate...

sorry i'm gonna need a little bit more information here.......

I’m gonna miss this show so much and this finale interview makes me 😭😭😭 (and chuckle “I was swirling the toilet trying to catch up to her”) but mostly 😭

First for @indiewire.com.web.brid.gy! I talked to "The Order" costume designer Rachel Dainer-Best about the meanings behind Nicholas Hoult's intentional t-shirt + jeans uniform, Jude Law's outsider FBI agent shirt + tie, and more: www.indiewire.com/features/cra...

Songwriter of all your fave ‘80s/‘90s hits, Allee Wilis, called herself “the world’s best kept secret” — that's out now with a documentary on her moving journey and amazing achievements. I watched it for the nostalgia, but came away so inspired! heywhatevernevermind.substack.com/p/80s-music-...

Settling in for the next 4 hours

feeling thankful for cole escola and this flamingo 🦩

And an early, supersized news edition of Whatever Nevermind, feat. my ode to Idris Elba, a very Gen X-y ep of Las Culturistas + a take from @cherylanneny.bsky.social et moi on a childhood holiday song that didn't age well (and wasn't great back then either): open.substack.com/pub/heywhate...

Loved catching up with "Maria" costume designer Massimo Cantini-Parrini to discuss collaborating with #AngelinaJolie, pulling from his own vintage archive (I need to see it!), and dressing the star in a coat actually owned by the real opera legend: www.refinery29.com/en-us/maria-...

In September, I took a trip to Scotland to explore the many locations of Outlander. For The Daily Beast Obsessed, I wrote about this special experience and chatted to some of the people behind the Starz series www.thedailybeast.com/obsessed/out...

The dream! I interviewed icon Lucy Liu about ordering The Rock and Captain America around, getting a call from Steven Soderbergh for the lead in Presence and more:

So many good bespoke suits, knits that I want and fancy watches 🔥

Since I’m on here now and it’s #SomebodySomewhere day: I interviewed the amazing @marycatherineg.bsky.social about Tricia’s 💖 arc into this season and why she’s feeling the best she’s ever felt
