Katie Holmes Uncovered inStyle

Not long ago, we wrote about Katie Holmes, the Perfect Princess living a not-so-perfect-life. And probably because women do know (the other) women better, here’s our favorite Katie Princess on the cover of InStyle Magazine. And further on, uncovered in the pages of InStyle, we find her interview saying pretty much what we told you in our first post:

“[He] likes me in a suit and a mini every now and then. I like it when he likes it. It makes me blush. He’ll say, ‘You look good. I hope security’s going with you.’ Now that gives me attitude.”

It’s breathtakingly romantic, is it not?! Like she would apologize for all those times Tom can’t be with her. Like she would want us to know that even so (invisible), her magnificent husband is signing and approving her every move. Well, with a husband like that, heck, even I’ll go out by myself! On the cover of the January 2008 magazine, she’s wearing a Dior by John Galliano suit. Is that outfit signed and authorized by Tom himself, we wonder?

Of course, we’re so consumed by her absence from the big screen and we’re worried, but Katie Holmes herself calms us down:

“I’m living my ideal role. I love being a mom and a wife. In terms of my career, I’d love to do a period piece.”

Hm, just between us, girls, wouldn’t we love playing …let’s say..mmm… the next James Bond girl? Wouldn’t it be OUR ideal role (well, for 10 seconds, maybe)? It’s just perfect! Katie Holmes is becoming aristocratic – she’d love to do a period piece. Just like in those Prince Perfect dreams of hers (except she’s stuck up with the ogre).

Don’t leave the Prince Perfect scene! Just imagine that he became the ogre the very night after the ceremony. And that is why our sweet Katie Holmes gives us the Best Moment of her life:

“Walking down the aisle. I always wanted to be married, and it was suddenly happening. I don’t know if I breathed.”

That 18th November 2006, the last day of her life as an innocent young woman, the first day of her living-in-her-dream-life. Don’t breathe, Katie, you’ll be poisoned!

Every once in a while, Katie’s sincere: (this time it’s about her turning 30)

“New chapter. I am a bit wiser now. I feel I really lived my 20s, and I’m happy about that.”

We’re happy that you lived you 20s too, Katie, but what about that wonderful rest of your life? You’re not gonna stay in this mess forever, tell us at least that!

O, Hail the Almighty Sultan: (about Tom Cruise, Airplane Pilot)

“Trust. I don’t give it a thought. He knows what he’s doing. When he decides to do something, he does it. It’s great. [She giggles.] It’s hot.”

Damn, girl! If you would have told us that man of yours was associated with love and carrying and what ever could be more romantic in your sweet head and innocent heart, we would have believed you the very instant! But trust? We’re not born yesterday and we have our share of happiness! And trust doesn’t make it more than (let’s say) a best friend (if you stick with just that one word). Hmmm

Imagine this very feminine young woman convincing you of her hobbies:

“Football—the Redskins. And soccer. I like watching sports. I shoot basketball with the kids. I’m a good rebounder.”

Ain’t that just perfect? Perfectly fit for her new found best friend-posh-spicy-skinny-always-moody-Victoria Beckham? Perfect husband, perfect trusty relationship, perfect friends.

And still what’s wrong with Katie Holmes running the New York City Marathon in November? Like a penitence for her one-year marriage? (oh, sorry, maybe scientologists don’t have physical penitence.. when a scientologist does something wrong, he just gives more money to scientology-whatever-of-theirs and he’ll have instant forgiveness). Just look at her face! You’d even think that she’s happy! Running by herself, in the crowd, listening to:

“Kanye’s new album, Rihanna, Keyshia Cole.”

Revolutionary, ain’t it? We’ve never been huge fans of Kanye West, but there is something we hear a lot in his music: that you can’t break this man down! Rihanna, the “good girl gone bad”? is there a secret message she’s transmitting us there? Hmm.. let’s just stop here and let you have your say: Do you really think Katie’s happy?

This Phillip Lim “Orchid” Strapless Party Dress in Vintage Gold is breathtakingly retro.

You can chose to wear it simple or give it more of a cosy look and feeling with the grey cardigan or just let it be, pure vintage gold by itself, pair it with opaque tights and gorgeous metallic pumps or booties, keep the accessories discreet and go make an impression! We’re behind you 100%! (for info: The 3.1 Phillip Lim “Orchid” Strapless Dress costs $620)

Same celebrities, same dresses. It must have been a day when stylists were on strike. Not that we hadn’t had our days of grey inspiration, but this is just too obvious.

You’re a star, you watch your back. And if you don’t have a great stylist, at least take five minutes to check out the Internet info about a certain outfit (and the age of the first person who wore it).Anyway, here they come (again):

Reese Witherspoon and Anne Hathaway both fell for this Simply Vera Vang coat.

Alexander McQueen should start a made by measure business, just like Tom Ford did so doubles like Jessica Alba and Mary J. Blige would be impossible.

Alice and Olivia don’t impose a certain age for their dresses. Amanda Bynes and Kelly Preston are living proof.

Well.. Oprah in Gucci.. Riyo Mori in Gucci… No more comments (who knows, the day she’ll invite me in for her show, she’ll ask why I was so bitter about this Gucci innocent number).

A brunette Kelly Clarkson and a red headed Kate Walsh in green Monique Lhuiller.

I bet choosing the outfits was one of the reasons Celine Dion just wrapped up her singing career (here she is facing Ellen Pompeo with the same Lanvin dress).

The sudden change of haircut wasn’t all a miss for Kate Moss. She’s getting to be the Donna Karan face for the Spring-Summer 2008 Collection Nueva York. It’s her first appearance in Donna Karan’s campaigns but the designers is reassuring everybody that it won’t be her last for the American house.

The campaign was shot on the streets of LA transformed into Havana, Cuba to catch the spirit of the collection photographed by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott.
