The trailer for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 1 dropped over the weekend, and in it we get a brief glimpse of Jennifer Lawrence in her winning turn as Katniss. Her look is a bit rougher-hewn this time around—she is, after all, leading a bottom-up rebellion against The Man from a forgotten precinct known as District 13. Chunky knit scarves are the new black!

What with the rebel uprising and all, Katniss is pretty confident in defying the Capitol’s colorful conventions with this cozy, lumpen knit from Michael Kors.

This look says: “I’ve been to the puppet show and seen the strings. (And I still look great in a scarf.)”

Once all this fighting and rebelling is done, Katniss and Peeta are planning to move to Brentwood, where, on cooler nights, she’ll pull this out and throw it on to reminisce about "where she came from." (What she’ll conclude: Started from the bottom, now we here, wearing The Row.)

There are two words for Johansson’s turn as Black Widow in the latest Avengers: alluringly lethal. She proves day in and day out that a skintight catsuit needn’t be vampy; in fact, it’s almost sexier when it’s borderline conservative.
