Stella McCartney Imagines a Nature-Positive Fashion Industry in COP26 Exhibit

November 04, 2021 at 06:20PM The United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP26) commenced in Glasgow this week as international leaders face mounting pressure to unearth solutions to the fashion industry’s role in the climate crisis. On November 3, designer Stella McCartney — a crusader for sustainability since creating her luxury label in 2001 — gave the summit’s attendees a taste of what those solutions could be in a flourishing installation.

Hosted at the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow, “Future of Fashion” is part of Prince Charles’s Sustainable Market Initiative (SMI) and is aligned with its Terra Carta charter, designed to provide blueprint for businesses to move towards a sustainable future by 2030.…

Almond Joy Energy Balls

Almond Joy Energy BallsNovember 04, 2021 at 04:00PM These No-Bake Almond Joy Energy Balls are inspired by the ever popular Almond Joy chocolate bar but without all the gunk! They pack a serious nutrition punch and are also gluten-free, vegan AND paleo. I haven’t talked much about my pregnancy here on the blog (or elsewhere for that matter) but with just 6-8 weeks out we’re definitely in full-blown baby mode around here. We’ve got ALL.THE.CLASSES and appointments and I’ve been warned that baby will be here before we know it. Our journey to pregnancy wasn’t easy and definitely taught me that you cannot prepare for everything, but if there’s one thing I know I can prepare for it is food. I’m well aware that once baby is here sleep goes out the window (TBH I’ve barely slept this pregnancy!) and you just have…

Rihanna in a Bright Green Coat and Yellow Gloves Is the Fashion Courage I Needed Today

November 04, 2021 at 04:32PM If you typically avoid adding color to your wardrobe, Rihanna will seriously have you reconsider. The singer, who has a knack for adding her own flair to fashion trends, showed us how to rock vivid shades in a look that would stop anyone in their tracks. While out in New York City, Rihanna was spotted in a vivid green coat by Marina Moscone, accessorized by a pair of equally flamboyant lime gloves. She kept the rest of the look relatively pared down, sporting a black top and matching Rick Owens jeans underneath. It wouldn’t be a Rihanna look if there wasn’t a stack of necklaces involved, plus some heels from The Attico for added height. The business mogul, who’s currently working on not one but two Savage X Fenty drops this month, has been busy. But one thing…

All That Glitters Is a Newly Engaged Kristen Stewart in Chanel on The Tonight Show

November 04, 2021 at 02:43PM Kristen Stewart is celebrating her engagement to screenwriter and actress Dylan Meyer, along with her new role as Princess Diana in Spencer, which is out later this month. The star showed up to The Tonight Show in Chanel separates - a sparkling tweed bomber jacket and rhinestone encrusted plaid pants - separated by a sexy cutout underwire bra from lingerie brand Thistle and Spire. Although her trousers skimmed the floor, she wore Casadei’s black platform ankle booties underneath them and makeup artist Jillian Dempsey’s Lip Locket necklace. Kristen’s hairstylist Adir Abergel took some dressing-room shots of the actress getting ready, zooming in on her rings, one of which is a silver-plated band she’s been wearing on her ring finger for weeks while doing press for her film. Kristen didn’t confirm whether or not the jewelry symbolizes her love…

These 4 Jewellery Trends Will Always Be the Perfect Finishing Touch

November 04, 2021 at 10:25AM Everyone likes to feel fancy from time to time. Especially now, when we can all really appreciate the art of celebrating again. Dressing up for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings and even ‘just because’, has suddenly taken on new reverence; and rather than bemoan the effort it takes at the end of a working week, we’re now embracing those opportunities and languishing in the act. Yes, getting physically dressed in your favourite LBD is a huge part of that. But it shouldn’t be forgotten that one of the easiest ways to take an outfit from zero to hero is by adding some great jewellery. Every woman knows the power a flash of jewels has on even the most basic outfit. Take a simple T-shirt, blazer and jeans ensemble, throw on a pair of drop crystal earrings (and maybe some heels) and…

November 04, 2021 at 08:00AM “Benjamin Buttoning.” Ageing backwards. Stopping time. If there’s one effect or buzzword that elicits the same visceral reaction from beauty editors, skincare experts, and customers alike, it’s anything with the term anti-ageing in it. The truth of the matter is this: There’s no miracle cream, gel, serum or treatment that has the power to actually reverse or halt the signs of ageing on the skin. (Sorry, it just doesn’t exist.)
