Blake Lively Convinced Me to Try These $45 Old Navy Overalls

May 06, 2022 at 01:10AM A couple of weeks back, I saw Blake Lively post a photo of herself in denim overalls, so naturally, I had to buy overalls. In her Instagram pic, the actress looks flawless (no surprise there), in a full-length style that’s basically the epitome of farm girl chic. She elevated the look with some colorful jewels, a Chanel handbag, and heels and single-handedly convinced me to invest in a pair … ASAP. So without hesitation, I turned to Old Navy, which has basically become my go-to brand. I knew I wanted a short style as opposed to a full-length pair since summer is right around the corner (and I plan on ditching plants completely). So when I scrolled past the Slouchy Straight Workwear Medium-Wash Non-Stretch Jean Short Overalls ($40, originally $45), I knew I met my match. It certainly…

Rihanna Wears a Red Wedding Dress and “I Do” Grill in A$AP Rocky’s New Video

May 06, 2022 at 12:15AM Rihanna makes several appearances in boyfriend A$AP Rocky’s “D.M.B.” music video, which the rapper released on Thursday. The acronym stands for “DAT$ MAH B!*$H,” a point Rocky makes with almost every scene his girlfriend is in. In a particular take, he even proposes to Rihanna, flashing his grill that reads “Marry Me?” to which Rihanna reveals her own grill reading “I Do.” In the proposal scene, Rihanna emerges under a thin red veil matched to a halterneck dress with a plunging keyhole. While this may be a hint at potential incoming engagement news, Rihanna’s costumes have all our attention in the meantime. The video predates the noticeable stage of her pregnancy, but the screen style portrayed feels, in retrospect, like a preview of her unconventional and bump-forward maternity style. Take, for example, the first scene, where she bares…

Every Plus-Size Fashion Moment From the Met Gala Over the Years

May 05, 2022 at 10:55PM This year brought a slightly more inclusive Met Gala red carpet, although when it comes to body diversity at the ball, representation has been notably lacking through the years. In a 2017 interview with The Cut following her first official appearance at the Met Gala, plus-size model Ashley Graham shared how difficult it was to find a designer to dress her for the red carpet. “I couldn’t get a designer to dress me,” she said. “You can’t just show up in jeans and a T-shirt.” At the time, several fashion houses refrained from collaborating with plus-size celebrities invited to the gala. Graham has since walked the red carpet at the Met three consecutive times, wearing H&M Couture, Prabal Gurung, and Gucci x Dapper Dan, respectively. And slowly, the tide is changing. For the 2022 Met Gala, there were…

May 05, 2022 at 09:55PM Kicking off cruise season, Chanel hosted a seaside show at the Monte-Carlo Beach hotel in Monaco, welcoming a distinguished crowd at the dreamy locale. Brand ambassador Kristen Stewart was in attendance, dressed to the nines to greet guests and watch the cruise 2023 catwalk. The “Spencer” star sported a sleeveless, scoop-neck minidress covered in black, white, blue, and red sequins from Chanel’s fall 2022 collection. The leg-baring design allowed for a full view of the actor’s sheer tights, which she styled with black open-toed platform sandals in quilted leather. The 32-year-old star kept herself warm with an oversize gray tweed coat that reached knee level. Stewart joined other friends of the house, including British actress Tilda Swinton, American filmmaker Sofia Coppola, French singer Vanessa Paradis, MonĂ©gasque model Charlotte Casiraghi, and South Korean rapper G-Dragon.

Here’s What You Should Know About Red Dress Day

May 05, 2022 at 09:59PM Every year at the start of May, red dresses can be seen hanging from trees, statues and front doors across Canada. These hollow vermilion silhouettes are not just fashionable foliage, but a reminder of the epidemic of missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls and two-spirit people. The National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and Two-Spirit People (MMIWG2S) is widely recognized as Red Dress Day, and Canadians are encouraged to hang and wear red as a means of drawing attention to gendered and racialized crimes against Indigenous peoples. @spicybkilla May 5th!! Tomorrow!! #may5th #mmiwg2s #indigenous #winnipeg #reddress #nomorestolensisters ♬ I Don’t Know What to Do – Fawn Wood “The red dress itself is a visual reminder of the staggering number of Indigenous women who are no longer with us,” explains Cory Hunlin, a two-spirit Tsilhqot’in…

For the “Pachinko” Costume Designer, Every Garment Carries Significance

May 05, 2022 at 08:55PM Since its much-anticipated debut in late March, “Pachinko,” based on the New York Times bestselling novel of the same name, has captivated viewers with its gripping story of one Korean family through four generations. While “Pachinko” is a work of fiction, the Apple TV+ series - like the book - effortlessly weaves historical authenticity into the lives of its fictional characters. In fact, authenticity was the “bedrock” of the show, as Soo Hugh, the creator, showrunner, writer, and executive producer, has frequently spoken about maintaining the historical accuracy of Korea throughout the 1900s. Hugh captures the era through the characters, the beautiful sets, the vivid food, and of course, the clothing. In only five months, costume designer Kyunghwa Chae procured all of the period garments of “Pachinko,” about 80 percent of which were custom-made. Others were discovered from…
