12 Old Navy Work Pants That Look Like Trousers and Feel Like Sweats

April 26, 2022 at 12:00AM “Work pants” means something different to everyone, especially in the WFH era. To you, that might mean a classy pair of trousers, but to the next person, some elevated sweatpants might suffice. No matter what comes to mind, we can all get behind this: Your work pants should be comfortable. Like, you should actually look forward to slipping them on in the morning, especially with how many comfy options are on the market. (After all, if they’re not comfortable enough to last long days and what seems like even longer commutes, what’s the point?)

How to Dress Like a Coastal Grandmother, According to TikTok

April 25, 2022 at 10:15PM Combine Martha Stewart’s kitchen with Oprah Winfrey’s garden, and you will achieve the aesthetic du jour known as “coastal grandmother.” A phrase coined by TikTok creator Lex Nicoleta, the trend, as she explains in a video, refers to those who love “Nancy Meyers movies, coastal vibes, recipes and cooking, Ina Garten, [and] interiors” - among other leisurely activities. “No, you don’t have to be a grandmother to be a coastal grandmother,” she continues. “It’s for anyone and everyone.” Nicoleta even created a Spotify playlist, turning the idea into a full-fledged lifestyle trend anyone can tap into. Today, with millions of views and a feed populated with clothing hauls, outfit-of-the-day videos, and people living out their retirement fantasies, the aesthetic seems here to stay. Other celebrities who embody the aesthetic include Reese Witherspoon, who Nicoleta calls a coastal-grandmother icon…

Hailey Bieber Proves These Controversial Low-Rise Pants Can Actually Look Chic

April 22, 2022 at 08:15PM Hailey Bieber never misses when it comes to style, even when there’s a controversial trend involved. On April 21, the Rhode Beauty founder shared her casual Thursday night outfit, centered around her low-rise cargo pants, on her Instagram Stories. She teamed the baggy trousers with a super-cropped graphic tee, topped with an oversized boxy blazer - her signature silhouette when it comes to outerwear. Accessorizing with chunky Yeezy trainers and hingeless sunglasses, Bieber showed off her effortlessly cool style, embracing the popular baddie aesthetic. On the jewelry front, she added Balenciaga logo earrings and layers of gold chain necklaces. Bieber’s utility pants are evidence that cargo pants can be a lot cuter than some of the designs from the early aughts. While some people have refused to hop on the low-rise trend, others, like Bieber, have embraced nostalgic…

Two Sikh Canadians on How Their Hair Connects Them With Their Identity

April 22, 2022 at 07:13PM For a Sikh, hair is considered sacred and one of five physical religious symbols. Others include a stainless steel bracelet called a kara, which represents infinite love and equality, and a kanga, a comb that is carried to represent good hygiene. Once baptized — in a ceremony known as Amrit Sanskar, which can take place at whatever age one feels ready to fully commit to one’s faith — Sikhs believe in letting their hair grow out of respect for God. While hair is certainly associated with a sense of pride for a Sikh, it’s also believed that keeping it uncut and uncoloured is part of leading a humble life. To protect their ever-growing strands, men often choose to wear turbans. Women are welcome to wear them as well, but it’s much less common. Here, two Canadians shed light…
