November 15, 2021 at 01:00PM When it comes to seasonal fashion, fall always makes its way to the top. From cozy layers and warmer hues to edgy footwear and fun accessories—fall really is king in the fashion world, especially now.

Insecure’s Yvonne Orji Breaks Down Molly’s Biggest Fashion Moments

November 15, 2021 at 12:20PM There are few occasions one might wear a pearl thong - and it’s certainly not doing any kind of cardio, if you ask Samantha Jones, or on a beach set for the span of a five-day shoot, if you ask Yvonne Orji. The actress, who plays the ever on-trend Molly Carter on Insecure, had a memorable few days shooting episode four, styled in a cutout black one-piece by the show’s costume designer, Shiona Turini. “The look that Shiona and I probably fought on the most is [the one from] the beach scene,” Yvonne told POPSUGAR. “Shiona is definitely one person, when she gets a vision, she’s like, ‘Allow me to do my job, I do it well.’ She has something in her mind so when we, as her muses, if we ever have a question or we’re not…

Taylor Swift Just Wore the Perfect Blazer-and-Leggings Combo for Winter

November 15, 2021 at 11:56AM If I’m honest, Taylor Swift hasn't always been one of the celebrities at the top of my seasonal outfit inspo list, however recently the singer has been pulling some seriously chic looks out of the bag. Case in point: this weekend Taylor stepped out in what is undeniably the most perfect winter blazer. From LA-based brand Anine Bing, it comes in a classic houndstooth check, double-breasted fit and, silhouette-wise, it’s just the right amount of boxy.Styling it with comfy black leggings (the dream), black ankle boots and a black base layer, Taylor keeps the whole thing relatively pared-back, but I have a feeling this blazer would look just as good over everything from dresses to wide-leg denim. Best of all? The blazer is still in-stock, and we’ve managed to track it down for you. So, if you fancy channelling a little Swift-inspired style in your…

How To Brine A Turkey Breast Before Roasting

How To Brine A Turkey Breast Before RoastingNovember 15, 2021 at 11:11AM Thanksgiving is just around the corner and today we’re talking about the perfect turkey brine and how to brine a turkey breast before roasting! Brining is different from marinating. Usually for a marinade, you’re coating the meat with some type of dressing or sauce that’s a mix of oil and acid (vinegar or citrus) with fresh herbs to add flavor. Brining uses salt and water and is a method to infuse moisture to meat that may otherwise dry out. Salt can be used to preserve meat, but in this case, we’re infusing the meat with flavor from the inside out. Brining is particularly helpful for Thanksgiving because it can make the turkey more moist, tender, and flavorful after roasting. You can completely customize the brine and can mix up flavors however…

And Just Like That, the Season’s Best Jumpers Have Arrived

November 15, 2021 at 08:00AM Now, we find ourselves at that specific point in the year where we have two options before us: going out in a coat without a jumper or going out in a jumper without a coat. Personally, I always opt for the latter for as long as possible. That’s mainly because I am and will always be a jumper person, and until the time comes when both are required, jumpers (and umbrellas) are going to serve as my protection from the elements. For the record, I’m not talking about flimsy knits that do little else other than give my T-shirts a break. I mean big, chunky, Michelin Man–style jumpers that are cosy, comforting and, naturally, chic. This, however, is a formidable combination and not one you come across every day. Some chunky knits can feel more bulbous than beautiful, while ones that…

These 25 Hairstyles Prove Long Bobs Always Look Chic

November 15, 2021 at 08:00AM Probably one of the most overlooked hairstyles out there is mid-length hair. Between short pixies and chin-grazing cuts and long, lustrous tresses, we often forget just how chic mid-length hairstyles can be. But right now, that seems to be changing.Chances are, if you’re anything like us, you’re looking for a way to freshen up your look, and we all know the easiest way to do so is with a new hairstyle. And it seems the look fashion girls are backing is the long bob, otherwise known as the “lob.”The long bob’s sudden rise through the hair ranks is likely a combination of two things: It’s being sported by those who had shorter hairstyles before lockdown which have subsequently grown out due to the lack of salon appointments, and those with longer hair have been flocking to their hairdressers en masse…

This “Old” Trend Is Suddenly So Popular Again

November 15, 2021 at 08:00AM Social media has changed the rapidity of trends. Traditionally, new trends would start and end with each passing season. Now, however, with the world at our fingertips, trends can be born quite literally overnight. All it takes is for a celebrity to upload a snap of their latest outfit or an influencer their new purchase, and you’ve got the fashion equivalent of a domino effect. As such, it takes something pretty special to withstand the turnover, which makes what we’re going to discuss today all the more impressive indeed.The bouclĂ© trend has lasted not just a year, not just a decade, but over 60 years. The fabrication, woven from a specific type of looped wool yarn and derived from the French term for “ringed” or “curled,” has become synonymous with high-end style. And though it has been used to create clothes and…

These Hairstyles Will Take Years Off Your Face

November 15, 2021 at 08:00AM I don’t know about you, but the past year has felt long. I’ve got more grey hair and more wrinkles, and despite going to bed earlier, I’m still tired. There’s no denying that I’ve felt like I’ve aged faster in lockdown. While there’s nothing inherently wrong with this (I have no issues with changing hair colour or a few lines on my face), the speed at which it has happened has been a little disconcerting. I want to feel like myself again, and for me, that means getting a haircut. Over the past few months, I’ve lost count of the number of people who have said their hair needs cutting, from my husband to my colleagues as well as my parents. The craving to get a chop has been strong. Personally, I’m desperate to get my hair cut back into a…
