Sydney Sweeney’s Micro-mini + More MTV Movie & TV Awards Looks

June 06, 2022 at 04:59PM The MTV Movie & TV Awards has been creating viral moments before social media was even really a thing. Take the 2005 show, when Best Kiss winners Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams recreated their dramatic smooch from The Notebook on stage as Maroon 5’s “She Will Be Loved” played over cheers (including those from celebrities like Hillary Duff and Lindsay Lohan). Is there anything more quintessentially early 2000s than that? And last night, MTV tapped into our collective nostalgia for that very era. Between appearances by J. Lo and Snoop Dog, Vanessa Hudgens as host and noughties fashion (Sydney Sweeney’s Miu Miu micro-mini; Olivia Rodrigo’s spiky updo), the MTV Movie & TV Awards red carpet took us on a trip back through time. See for yourself in the gallery below, where we’ve rounded up all the best red…

Can Fashion Brands Actually Be Canceled?

June 06, 2022 at 03:45PM While Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker’s three-part wedding was a love-filled affair, the bridal party’s choice of designer was not so well-received. As pictures poured in from the Las Vegas nuptials, followed by a bigger ceremony in Portofino, Italy, it became apparent that the entire Kardashian-Jenner clan were dressed by Dolce & Gabbana. The fashion house is seemingly enjoying a resurgence among today’s biggest stars, but it wasn’t too long ago that Dolce & Gabbana was inundated with controversy. The Milan-based brand’s history of racism and homophobia runs deep. In less than a decade, the brand came under fire for an ad with a Chinese model eating Italian food with chopsticks; selling “Slave Sandals” and Blackamoor earrings; referring to children born from IVF as “synthetic” (Dolce issued an apology); saying that they oppose gay adoption; calling Selena Gomez…

Beauty Products You Need To Get Your Hands On For Pride Month

June 06, 2022 at 01:00PM The meaning behind makeup has continued to expand as the beauty space has taken off over the last decade. Many turn to it to bring out their natural features, others use it as a tool to make a powerful statement, and some express their identity through its colours and textures. Whichever way you choose, it’s a transformative medium and every June, as we celebrate love, members of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community breathe life into this form of storytelling. This year, Canada’s very own iconic beauty destination, Shoppers Drug Mart, is encouraging Canadians everywhere to “Get loud for Pride!” with the launch of their limited-edition Quo Beauty Pride Collection, with a portion of proceeds supporting Pflag Canada—a local organization committed to helping Canadians navigate their sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression. With a new assortment of Pride-inspired makeup and…

How to calculate nutrition needs

How to calculate nutrition needsJune 06, 2022 at 11:16AM Google how to calculate your own nutrition needs and the results will yield a plethora of online nutrition calculators. But how do you know which one to choose? Are they accurate? And then what happens? How do you apply this information to your own body? This post was written in collaboration with Mia, who is a Registered Dietitian on my team.  Nutrition calculators are EVERYWHERE online and it’s easy to receive macros and suggested caloric intake after answering a few questions. The problem is that these calculators are rarely accurate and don’t consider factors that can have a huge impact on how much and what types of fuel you should choose for your unique situation and health goals. Online nutrition calculators fail to account for various factors, including: Stress: mental, emotional, physical Nutrition quality.…

Olivia Rodrigo’s MTV Awards Corset Dress Looked Like It Was Hard to Walk In

June 06, 2022 at 02:30AM The MTV Movie & TV Awards red carpet is moving full speed ahead, and one of the most memorable looks of the night goes to none other than Olivia Rodrigo. Fresh off the 2022 Met Gala red carpet, where she stunned in a 2000s-inspired sequined gown with butterfly clips in her hair, the “Drivers License” singer made an appearance in a dress that felt retro and modern at the same time. Rodrigo chose a vintage black corseted dress by Jean Paul Gaultier for the occasion. It featured a crisscross halter top, ribbed boning along the zippered bodice, and a long hemline that hit just above her ankles. While the throwback look commanded plenty of attention on the red carpet, the fitted silhouette did look a bit hard to walk in. Like the red carpet pro she is, she…

Lana Condor Is the Latest Star to Take Valentino’s 6-Inch Platform Pumps For a Spin

June 06, 2022 at 02:10AM On Sundays, Lana Condor wears pink. The “Boo, B*tch” actor attended the MTV Movie and TV Awards on June 5 wearing an entirely fuchsia outfit from Valentino’s fall 2022 collection. She paired a bandeau bra top and high-waisted shorts with tights, a structured jacket, a top-handle bag, dangly diamond earrings, and her enormous engagement ring from fiancĂ© Anthony De La Torre. But the highlight was certainly her 6-inch ankle-strap platform heels, which she walked down the red carpet in with impressive ease. Although Condor isn’t nominated for any awards at this year’s ceremony, she took the stage to present a golden popcorn trophy to the “Loki” cast during the show. Condor is the latest star to show love for creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli’s all-pink Valentino collection since it debuted at Paris Fashion Week earlier this year. For a…

Chrishell Stause Wore Thigh Cutout Trousers and a Bra to the MTV Awards

June 06, 2022 at 02:05AM Chrishell Stause’s outfit at the MTV Movie and TV Awards is the most glamorous a pair of trousers has ever looked. On Sunday, the “Selling Sunset” star walked the red carpet in a Grace Ling Vertebrae Bralette ($370) and matching Peek-Open Thigh Pants ($990), which boast a reverse thigh cutout draped in mesh. Stause styled the edgy look with Giuseppe Zanotti heeled sandals, VRAI earrings, and Raven Fine Jewelers rings. The bikini-style top, previously worn by Jennifer Lopez and Karlie Kloss, features a vertebrae-inspired brass trim across the front, the perfect tie-in to her complementary Grace Ling Butt Bag ($890). The reflective shell-inspired bag, adorned with a silver snake chain, is just big enough to hold a tube of lipstick, a set of keys, and maybe even a few business cards should she decide to strike up a…

J Lo’s Cutout Gown at the MTV Awards Has the Most Intense Plunging Neckline

June 06, 2022 at 01:40AM Jennifer Lopez is an award-show staple, known for creating pop culture fashion moments (see: the infamous Versace dress at the 2000 Grammy Awards or the bedazzled Sean Jean tank and headscarf look at the 2000 MTV VMAs), and tonight she continued to carry that torch. The global superstar wore a leather cutout gown with a plunging neckline paired with dangling earrings and a diamond choker necklace. Her hair was styled in loose waves, and she finished off the look with a simple black clutch. The pop culture and fashion icon took home the MTV Generation Award, which “celebrates beloved actors whose diverse contributions to both film and television have turned them into household names.” From critically acclaimed performances in “Selena” and “Hustlers” to animation voiceovers in “Ice Age” and “Home” to being a ‘00s rom-com staple (“The Wedding…

Sydney Sweeney Brought Back That Viral Low-Rise Skirt at the MTV Awards

June 06, 2022 at 01:20AM Sydney Sweeney looked euphoric on the red carpet of the MTV Movie and TV Awards in an early 2000s-inspired look. Accompanied by “Euphoria” costar Javon Walton, Sweeney chose a throwback look that ticked all the Y2K boxes, from the crystallized hemline of her low-rise rhinestone skirt to her cropped white button-up. To ensure the entire Miu Miu look was cohesive, she matched the fabric of her viral skirt to her shoes, which featured chunky bedazzled heels, and her bra, which twinkled in the Santa Monica light from beneath her crop top. Small leather buckle detailing on her hips edged the look up just enough, and the end result looked like something pulled straight out of Paris Hilton’s wardrobe. This year, Sweeney is nominated for Best Performance in a Show for her role in HBO’s “Euphoria.” Her character, Cassie…
