Hors! It's Friday again (hooray!) - the perfect occasion to have a look at some lovely photos of a young Julie Andrews practicing ballet with her aunt, Joan Wells, in 1954. Enjoy! Bonus: Did you spot the Good Boi and Feline Friend who joined them?

    I've missed you dumplings! My massive work project has kept me away from snarking on celebs.  Things are starting slow down (a bit), so I hope to resume by normal posting schedule starting next week. Fingers crossed. Okay, let's get to it. ► Singer and actress Rumer Willis...(I laughed as I typed that), uploaded an IG video of her strolling in the woods and complaining about how hard her life is as a single parent to her 2 year old daughter. BTW, Rumer is the spawn of Bruce Willis & Demi Moore. She's lived a life of privileged and wealth. Anyhoo, through a flood of tears that raised the sea levels more than all the glaciers in the world spontaneously melting, Rumer  whined and sobbed about the hardships of raising a kid on her own since she split from her boyfriend. She concluded her "Woe Is Me" audition video for  martyrdom status by giving the camera a thumbs up. The internet had no sympathy for the heaping pile of whine casserole Rumer served wit...

Open Post: Presented In Monochrome

There's just something about B&W photography that pulls you in. It's like the absence of color frees us to appreciate the contrast of light and dark and varying textures. My phone's Gurgle alerts randomly show me all sorts of fun, sometimes odd, but usually fascinating links to click on about art, history, politics and local news. Recently, it showed me THIS ONE.  I've occasionally turned color photographs to B&W on IG and it really switches things up. Like this one, which is on the road leading down to the beach near me: The only thing that's never in shades of gray is this simple fact: this is Open Post and all color schemes are welcome. Have fun, darlings! Photos: via 123clicks

OPEN POST: Cynthia Erivo in NYC

Credit: Jamie McCarthy/Getty In what feels like an endless press cycle for Wicked: For Good , Cynthia Erivo arrived at the NYC premiere of the film last night wearing custom Balenciaga. I am enjoying the more fun fashion we've been seeing from Erivo lately and this look feels very fitting for the movie.  Will you be checking out Wicked: For Good ?
