Cate Blanchett made a feisty fashion statement while arriving to the Drew Barrymore Show on Monday morning.
The 55-year-old actress has been promoting her spy thriller Black Bag, and while heading out for a day of press rounds stepped out in an all-black look.
The Australian beauty was clad in a sequin blouse that read, ‘Wow, what a sh*t show,’ in white lettering. (Here’s hoping Drew didn’t take it personally.)
The top was layered under a belted black jacket, and the style maven added a pair of tailored black trousers that cropped at the ankle.
She rounded out the ensemble with a pair of simple black heels and oversize, sporty, aviator-style sunglasses.

Cate flashed a sly smile as her blonde bob haircut, which was parted on the side, blew in the breeze.
Underneath her shades, she teased a flawless face of light makeup that included a glossy lip finish.
Blanchett reemerged later in the day, wearing an eye-catching pale lavender pantsuit with a lime green blouse.
She made an equally fashionable appearance on Sunday evening as she attended the New York City premiere of Black Bag.
Fittingly, she arrived to the red carpet event in another sleek all-black look, which featured an unexpected puffer jacket as the top.
The collared, faux leather look boasted silver zip details, adding an edgy touch to the getup.
It was tucked into skintight, high-waisted midi skirt that accentuated her trim waistline, giving her a subtle hourglass silhouette.
Finally, the presentation was punctuated by a pair of shiny black patent leather booties with a square toe design.

The notable sartorial moments come as the star spoke out about unequal pay in Hollywood.
In a conversation with The Guardian this week, Cate stated: ‘We’re nowhere near equal pay! Talking about it noisily doesn’t mean action has happened. I mean, there’s a greater concentration of wealth than perhaps there ever has been in human history. And we can see where that’s got us.’
She elaborated, ‘When you talk about equity and inclusion, that means the people who’ve had all the toys need to share. They’ve got used to that being normal. And so you have to be very vocal in order to rebalance it.
In 2018, Cate joined dozens of women in claiming sexual misconduct at the hands of disgraced producer Harvey Weinstein, saying she ‘got a bad feeling from him’ as she ‘wouldn’t do what he was asking me to do.’
Years later, she says the movement ‘didn’t really ever take root.’
She noted, ‘The conversation had just begun and suddenly everything was being discredited and undermined, so we’re still having to fight for those same basic conversations.’
