‘Mary Poppins' lawyer dresses like it's the 1800s with custom Victorian clothing and dip pens

She parties like it's 1899. Oregon's Adelaide Beeman-White is winding back the clock on haute couture by dressing like she stepped out of a time machine from the late 19th century. Instead of the usual suit, the 27-year-old associate attorney wears a handmade long skirt with puffed sleeves, a feathered hat and even a parasol, parroting the style of the 1800s Victorian era, Oregon Live reported. 'I'm stuck very solidly in about 1893 to '98,' the Hillsboro resident told the outlet of her Victorian-core style. 'I love that period primarily because the clothing is the best.' 4 'The speed of modern life has bothered me for as long as I can remember,' said Beeman-White. Adelaide Beeman-White/Instagram Beeman-White, who regularly shares photos of her retro ensembles on Instagram, also rocks leather gloves and a chatelaine, a decorative metal belt outfitted with accessories from fingernail clippers to a coin purse like a wearable Swiss Army Knife. Unfortunately, the 19th-century cosplayer is not allowed the aforementioned couture in court. Like a super hero with a secret identity, the Oregonian rocks a separate normal outfit for the judge, which comprises a comparatively staid plain, black J. Crew blazer. Her style could perhaps be compared to Cottagecore — a lifestyle and fashion trend that romanticizes a slower, simpler time, a la 'Little Women' or 'Little House on the Prairie' — but for the 1800s. 4 Beeman-White even lights her house with oil lamps. Adelaide Beeman-White/Instagram The Victorian lifestyle isn't just cosmetic — it's a way of a life. Beeman-White also acts the part by lighting her bedroom with oil lamps and sewing and mending her own clothing from vintage fabrics — a process she documents for her over 20,000 followers on Youtube. The old-school litigator even wrote to AAA with a dip pen and ink when it came time to renew her membership. This 19th-century fascination began in the sixth grade, when the Pacific Northwesterner traded in her jeans for a skirt, which kept getting longer and decked out in lace as time went on. 4 'I'm stuck very solidly in about 1893 to '98,' Beeman-White declared. Adelaide Beeman-White/Instagram 4 Beeman-White started partaking in Victorian-core in the sixth grade. Adelaide Beeman-White/Instagram 'The speed of modern life has bothered me for as long as I can remember,' said Beeman-White, whose fascination conversely lay with the past. She was especially fascinated with Queen Elizabeth I. 'I think she just really admired Queen Elizabeth and saw her as a really powerful woman and feminine figure,' recalled her mother Harriet Beeman, a therapist. 'She led the military and did all these things that men would've done, that women hadn't really been doing. That was part of it.' By early high school, Beeman-White dove headfirst into the role and was even a 'celebrity' in her neighborhood with local residents comparing her to 'Mary Poppins,' per her mother. Why did she choose to live her life like the 1800s? Beeman-White explained, 'The technological discoveries and advancements that are happening from 1890 to 1910, that would've been one of the most exciting periods to be alive.' Although the lawyer clarifies that she loves the reforms of the era — ie. labor unions, woman fighting for the right to vote — and not the 'oppressive and repressive and cruel policies and things that were going on at that time.' But Beeman-White is not just wallowing in the nostalgia and conversely suggests that a Victorian pace of life benefits the mind. 'We need to take our time with things,' she said. 'Focus on actually enjoying life. It's very bad for people psychologically to be rushing around not taking time to smell the flowers.'

Courtney Stodden Calls Out Bethenny Frankel Interview

Courtney Stodden is calling out Bethenny Frankel for the "criticism and bullying" she says she faced in a past interview. Courtney appeared on Bethenny in 2013 amid her split from Doug Hutchison, whom she'd controversially wed two years earlier when he was 51 and she was 16. Her rep had attributed the breakup to Courtney's age at the time, saying in a statement: "As you know, Courtney was married at a young age. Now, at 19, she's interested in exploring life as an unmarried single young adult—with the freedom to explore her independence." Bethenny asked Courtney about the split and her plans after divorce on the show. "You said earlier that you want to go back to being a 19-year-old," she said. "You come here, you have very blonde extensions. You have very large breasts. You have a short skirt. You come in looking like you could be a strip club." She also couldn't believe Courtney had turned down porn deals because of her "promiscuous" appearance. She also said, "🥀 I had to cancel my other interviews that day for a press tour in NYC because I couldn't handle any more criticism and bullying 💔" Bethenny hasn't publicly respond to the clip, but she previously defended her behavior after Courtney called her out for making her feel "mocked" in 2022. "Perhaps unfortunately, how we present ourselves is part of our branding and marketing," she wrote in a message to Courtney, which Courtney then shared on Instagram. "You were certainly marketing yourself differently than you are now, which seems to be working for you."She added, "I wish you luck in your endeavors. If something I said, upset or stuck with you, I'm sorry. Perhaps our conversation did contribute to the positive path that you embarked on." People reacted to the clip in the comments, calling Bethenny's behavior "horrible" and downright disappointing. "wow. it's giving 'but what were you wearing,'" one person wrote. Another stated that's exactly why her "talk show tanked!! She's horrible at interviewing at hosting." "You didn't deserve that," said a third. "I'm so sorry. It's written all over your face that you were hurting. I hope you get a meaningful apology." "You were groomed and healing yourself at this point and she has this to say?" a fourth wrote in disbelief, adding, "Bethenny has always been a mean girl. If anyone said this to Bethenny, she'd rip them a new one. She's also always been a hypocrite." Someone else commented, "God forbid a girl love playboy aesthetic and still wants to be seen as a human being," while one more added, "I will NEVER forgive all the adults who failed you. It still makes me sick to this day. They should feel so ashamed for how they took advantage of a child who was clearly being exploited. I hope it haunts them forever. You deserved so much better."

Sofia Richie Grainge dramatically cuts off her hair for a short French bob

Move over, long locks — Sofia Richie Grainge has officially entered the chic world of jaw-grazing bobs, and we're absolutely here for it. The daughter of Lionel Richie stunned fans with a fresh "French bob" debut on Instagram, documenting the dramatic chop right from her luxe South of France getaway at Hotel du Cap‑Eden‑Roc. Quelle surprise! Gone is the era of sleek buns and whisper‑soft waves. Instead, Sofia's new chin‑length 'do is razor‑sharp, subtly textured, and effortlessly Parisian. "She was nervous, but super excited," London hairstylist and the genius behind the look, George Curran shared with Vogue. Like us, friends, fans and followers of Sofia were just as shocked at the debut, taking to the comments section of her post to share their thoughts (which, included praise from none other than Vanessa Hudgens, may I add...). And not only that, but her husband Elliot gave it two enthusiastic thumbs‑up in her TikTok video documenting the chop. "I think it's really really pretty — it's like...'90s New York,'" he said. Get you a hubby who hypes you up like Elliot hypes up Sofia. #CoupleGoals. Far from a subtle trim, Sofia has lost around six inches of hair, making this French bob a dramatic transformation, to say the least. The style itself is a textbook example of a 'clean‑girl' transformation: minimal effort, maximal impact. Think bold, blunt ends with just enough texture to catch the light — and wind — in all the right ways. And with that, you best believe I'll be taking Sofia's IG post as a reference pic to my hairstylist ASAP. Bobs, here we all come! Follow Lia on Instagram.
