Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

This Portman?

Dumb ass belt, ruining a young and pretty dress.

Oh, and this is appalling makeup.

Yeesh. Don't these people have consultants to help them choose dresses and make-up, accessories and hair? Why, why do they insist on doing things themselves and fucking them up?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Good call, P-C.

I called something? Goodly? Guess I'm done with the book-learnin'.

Dumb ass belt, ruining a young and pretty dress.

Yeah, that is kind of a weird belt, but the dress looks like a negligee.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Huh. I like Jennifer Garner's dress and I'm not a JG fan. Laura Linney looks like Avril Lavigne in all that eye makeup. Ew.

I don't like the foof in the front of JG's dress. Maybe that's where she's hiding the baby.

She can look so elegant, but that whole bony shoulders punching forward over hollow rib cage look does no one any favours.

Hair too dark for pale skin and bland dress. And he just looks like a dork.

So over her. It's 2005. You're 12. Stop the retro chic (but at least she's doing it better than Xtina).

Oh, damn. You're right. Why have a dress that mandates your boobs are not going to be even?

Mmmm.

It's a lampshade and a bedskirt, but opulent, see?

Joely, Mary-Louise, and Scarlett look fine. Halle looks ridiculous, as does Diane.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I do always love the ita photo-review.

The thing on the front of Garner's dress needs to go. But the back is fine. The cutout at the waist is good.

Maybe it's just because the color is so good that I like it.

Eeeeek, ita! I think you scared 5 years off my life with some of those outfits. Particularly the lampshade that masquerades as a bedskirt. But, Usher did look pretty.

I think a lot of those dresses were pretty, just not on the people wearing them. I wish they could be like those plastic mix-n-match picture thingies we had as kids. Then I could switch the dresses around to find the right people to wear them. Except for Halle's dress. No one should be punished that way.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

geez, I go away for an hour or so, and it's all yelling and boobs and crying.

I kind of like that, actually.
