November 16, 2021 at 08:15PM When was the last time you saw a celebrity on the red carpet sporting eyeglasses? What about a magazine cover? In movies, she’s all that because she took her glasses off. Mia Thermopolis wears glasses. Amelia Mignonette Thermopolis Renaldi doesn’t. Toula Portokalos took off her glasses and coincidentally, got the guy soon after. I’ve worn glasses since the fifth grade. I made the switch to contact lenses as soon as I could because Hollywood made me think that glasses aren’t something a beautiful person wears. Needing a prescription isn’t rare: 164 million Americans wear glasses. So, why am I embarrassed to wear glasses on nights out or at formal events? The decision to wear glasses or not should be about comfort, not what society deems attractive. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve pushed myself to feel uncomfortable on purpose.…

November 16, 2021 at 08:05PM When perpetually bewildered Cousin Greg makes it to his first day on the job at the Waystar Royco skyscraper in Succession’s season 1, Tom Wambsgans confronts him with some brutal questions, “Forgive me, but are we talking to each other on the poop deck of a majestic schooner? Is the salty brine stinging my weather-beaten face? No? Then why the fuck are you wearing a pair of deck shoes, man?” Yes, that dialogue tells us a lot about Tom (yikes) but it also throws a gauntlet down for Easter-egg-hunting viewers: look out, the fashion on this show is important. Inside the world of the Succession, fashion is incredibly important to the characters since one wrong move will get you booted as an interloper in their high-stakes sphere. Outside of the world of the show, the characters’ fashion is…

November 16, 2021 at 07:55PM Chain links have proven to be timelessly fashionable in the form of necklaces and purse straps, but Elle Fanning introduced us to an entirely new, larger-than-life take on the trend at the 2021 InStyle Awards on Monday. The 23-year-old actress commanded attention at the event when she walked the red carpet in a crop top designed to resemble an enormous chain link. Hailing from Balmain’s spring/summer 2022 collection, the armor-like design features dozens of dazzling jewels lining the front and wraps around the back with a much thinner gold chain. With help from her longtime stylist, Samantha McMillen, Elle paired the spotlight-stealing top with a simple low-rise maxi skirt, platform heels, and a collection of gold Balmain rings. Somehow, against all odds, the outfit … really worked. Aesthetics aside, however, we do have some urgent questions about the…

November 16, 2021 at 07:05PM HBO’s hit series Succession is a family drama composed of chaotically evil, ultrawealthy, gorgeously dressed people. “It’s like being a superhero, only better,” Tom tells Cousin Greg in season one about being rich and powerful. “You get to wear a costume, only it’s designed by Armani and doesn’t make you look like a prick!” As we gleefully watch the Roy family implode through season three, attention must be paid to the clothes. Succession has sneakily become one of those sartorially blessed series whose fashion moments trend on Twitter as often as the plot twists do. With that in mind, here are style lessons we learned from this absurdly rich but horrible family. Remember, though: while you’re dressing for the job and the life you want, don’t forget to accessorize with a moral compass. Trust us, you’ll look cuter…
