Today marks the four year anniversary of JAK: The Celebrity Source!

I might not have posted much this year, but I couldn't let the day go by without recognizing it!

Happy belated birthday to Princess Charlotte, who celebrated her first birthday yesterday!

The little princess recently posed for a series of photos taken by her mother, and they’re quite cute!  She really is starting to look a lot more like Prince George now!

How has it already been 5 years since this happened?!?

Still can’t believe I got to meet and interview Jennifer Aniston, all thanks to @popsugar!

The rest of my amazing experience can be seen here, in part 1 and part 2!

Best Dressed at the SAG Awards 2016

I somehow missed the fact that the SAG Awards were on a Saturday night as opposed to a Sunday night, so I didn’t get to watch the red carpet coverage!  Luckily, there’s this amazing thing called the internet, so I was able to check out all the fashion this morning.

Naomi Watts wore this floral cobalt Burberry gown that looked beautiful against her skin tone.  She accessorized with Bulgari sapphires and Jimmy Choo sandals, and added a contrasting bright fuchsia lip for an overall great look!

Emilia Clarke wore a plunging fuchsia Dior Haute Couture ballgown along with Dior Fine Jewelry earrings and rings.  The color and cut were great on her, and I love that she kept her hair loose and more casual looking.  Also, who else would have loved to see this dress on Dior face Jennifer Lawrence?

Diane Lane impressed in this navy one shoulder Angel Sanchez gown.  I liked that it was a fairly simple silhouette with a few small details to make it unique.  I also loved how her hair was styled.  At 51, she’s doing it better than some of the woman half her age on the red carpet (and somehow hasn’t seemed to have aged at all in at least 10 years)!

Can’t wait to see what’s in store for the next red carpet!

Best Dressed at the Golden Globes 2016

It’s been a while since I’ve posted, but I figured I might as well contribute some opinions during awards season!

For the first major awards show of the year, the women did a nice job stepping up to the plate overall.

Amy Adams looked great in this tangerine Atelier Versace, proving once again that redheads can pull off orange and red, provided they’re the right tone.  She also had some nice simple jewels from Neil Lane and wore her hair in gorgeous loose curls.

Jenna Dewan Tatum was another favorite in this deep blue Zuhair Murad Couture with coordinating Lorraine Schwartz jewels.  I love a dress with some good pockets!

Viola Davis also had a gorgeous blue and silver dress, hers from Marchesa, along with Jacob & Co. jewels.  I liked that she added a bright lip as well.

Looking forward to seeing what the rest of awards season brings!

Guess which amazing album came out 1 year ago today?!?

Taylor Swift herself recognized the occasion with this cute edit to her album cover and the caption, “1 year old today!! #HappyBirthday1989″

Kate Hudson shared this awesome photo over the weekend with the caption, “That moment when @britneyspears shows up to your game night and your all like 👀💃🎉 #itsbritneybitch”

Why does Britney Spears never come to my game night?!?

Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux made their first public appearance as a married couple on Saturday.  They attended the Austin premiere of Theroux’s show The Leftovers.

Not my favorite look on Aniston, but they certainly both look very happy!

So apparently Kate Hudson, 36, is dating Nick Jonas, 23.  Now the 13 year age difference is a little big, but it’s even weirder when you take into account the fact that her son Ryder is 11, making him closer in age to Nick than she is.

Also the fact that she has two sons (she’s also mom to Bingham, 4) and has been both married and engaged makes it seem like they’re probably in very different places, certainly in terms of life experience.

Best of luck to them as they begin their relationship, but I don’t really see this one going the distance.

I can’t even.

This photo is so hilarious!  It somehow looks like Victor’s head was photoshopped on there, which obviously isn’t the case.

He was definitely one of the more entertaining contestants on the show, even if he wasn’t all that good at dancing!

Best Dressed at the Emmys 2015

Like I said in my worst dressed post, I really wasn’t pleased with most of the fashion Sunday night, but I managed to find a few that I liked more than others.

Laverne Cox wore a teal Calvin Klein Collection gown that was probably my favorite of the night.  While I’m not personally a huge fan of cutouts, I think the dress looked amazing on her.  I’m glad she chose a cut that was relatively simple (besides the cutouts), and that she kept her jewelry and makeup fairly minimal.  Definitely one of her best red carpet looks to date!

Sofia Vergara looked great in this custom silver St. John gown, that was a slight departure from her typical cleavage baring style.  She also matched her jewelry quite nicely to her gown, and of course, her hair and makeup were great as well.

Another one of my personal favorites for the night was Aubrey Plaza in Alexander Vauthier.  I loved the subtle reddish shimmer against the black fabric.  Also, while the leg slit is a bit overdone as of late, I feel like it works here alongside the long sleeves.

Well done to these ladies on their above average fashion!

Worst Dressed at the Emmys 2015

Okay so honestly, I wasn’t that impressed with much of the women’s fashion last night, but there were a few who stood out as some of the worst.

First up is Heidi Klum, in this Versace gown that seemed to have a split personality.  Seriously, what was up with the long ragged right side?!?  It looks like an animal attacked her.  Had the whole dress been the sparkly sheer left side, I think she could’ve pulled it off, what with being a supermodel and all!  At least her updo was really pretty, although you obviously can’t see it in the above photo.

Next we have Claire Danes in this purple Prada gown.  I actually liked the shimmering purple sequins, but those heavy chains just felt out of place.  Also, unfortunately for her, the neckline was not the most flattering for someone with a smaller chest.

Finally we have Kathy Bates in this shiny black gown.  It’s not so much that the dress was that awful, it was a combination of the dress, hair, and makeup.  Her hair kind of looked unwashed and the red lip along with darker eye makeup was a little harsh against her pale skin.

Better luck next time ladies!

Ellen Pompeo, star of Grey’s Anatomy, snagged one of four Entertainment Weekly covers last week which were dedicated to the brilliant shows from the mind of Shonda Rhimes.

Pompeo discussed how there was a somewhat sexist response when Patrick Dempsey left the show last season, with many people saying the show wouldn’t be able to continue without him.

“Pompeo pointed out that she was personally offended by the idea that Grey’s couldn’t continue without McDreamy.  After all, the show was named after Meredith Grey.  Wasn’t this supposed to be her story?”

““It’s like, Annalise Keating carries the show, Olivia Pope carries the show,” she said, referring to the characters [Viola] Davis and [Kerry] Washington play on How to Get Away with Murder and Scandal.  “But somehow, Meredith Grey needs someone.  Why can’t I just be the lead of the show the way Annalise and Olivia can?  Why can’t I be on that poster by myself?””

Well she certainly got a magazine cover by herself!

Totally forgot to share this when I saw it last week!

A fan knitted this sweater for Taylor Swift with the image of one of the Polaroids from her album, 1989.  It even includes the lyrics, “It’s like I got this music in my mind sayin’ it’s gonna be alright.”

Swift herself shared this photo, saying, “Someone knitted this sweater for me of a Polaroid of myself and gave it to my mom tonight at the show.  It has very quickly become my everything.  Thank you, mysterious knitter.”

That is one talented knitter!

Why is Tallulah Willis so unhappy looking?!? She’s at a huge celebration for Ferragamo, it can’t be that bad!

Ed Westwick must really like hats!

I go back and forth on how I feel about Kristen Stewart, but I can definitely appreciate the fact that she tossed off her heels at such a nice event for the sake of comfort!

The actress, along with Nicholas Hoult, attended the Venice Film Festival over the weekend where the two premiered their new film, Equals.
