Storm Reid Partners With New Balance: “I Want to Help Women Feel Seen Through Fashion”

October 27, 2021 at 04:05PM Euphoria’s Storm Reid is an actress, producer, humanitarian, and USC college student currently studying Drama and African American Studies. But add New Balance ambassador to the 18-year-old’s impressive list of achievements, because she just joined the squad (which already includes Jaden Smith and athlete Sydney McLaughlin). New Balance was attracted to the way Storm empowers her followers, particularly women, to take up space and claim their moment - and really, who wouldn’t be? When POPSUGAR talked to Storm about the partnership, which will include carrying out initiatives, product creation, and fronting campaigns and billboards, we were in awe of her determination to take on this new role. “Equity within the sneaker world means continuing to pave pathways for women – in general and within the industry – and being purposeful in everything we’re producing, whether it be campaigns…

Lululemon Brings Fanny Packs and Bucket Hats to the Team Canada Olympic Uniforms

October 27, 2021 at 03:47PM Let’s be clear — these are not your grandmother’s Olympic uniforms. They are Gen Z’s. As the Olympians-turned-models emerged onto the runway at the Lululemon Team Canada launch event on October 26, it immediately became apparent that the athleisure brand was taking its role as Olympic uniform provider quite seriously. Gone are the days of graphic tees and knitted mittens; in their wake lays oversized puffers, patterned leggings, cropped hoodies, versatile fanny packs and athletic bucket hats. Photography courtesy of LululemonIn what feels like a bid to cement Canada’s “cool-status” (Drake and The Weeknd can’t shoulder that responsibility alone!), the influence of streetwear and Gen Z was emphasized using smart styling choices. As seen in the promotional imagery and during the presentation, winter jackets are stacked atop one another to create bulky silhouettes; cold weather baseball hats are…

My New Favorite Fall Jeans Cost Just $29 at Walmart (and They Look Luxe!)

October 27, 2021 at 03:30PM Hi, shopping obsessive here! While I love scouring the web for the best items to purchase from every lifestyle category, clothes are my weakness, and denim is my obsession. Thankfully, I’ve managed to build up my wardrobe to have a solid array of styles like wide-leg silhouettes, baggy designs, and bell-bottoms - and I’m always on the hunt to upgrade my lineup in any way that I can. That said, it wasn’t until just recently that I got my hands on a pair of black jeans, which sounds ridiculous given the fact that I just raved about my uber-diverse denim wardrobe. But the thing is, I hadn’t purchased a new pair since outgrowing my skinny jeans both literally and figuratively (thanks, Gen Z). I sought to find a pair that was A) timeless and versatile and B) wouldn’t…

Roasted Rosemary Butternut Squash

Roasted Rosemary Butternut SquashOctober 27, 2021 at 02:00PM A simple fall side dish for roasted butternut squash with rosemary. Just toss with onion and olive oil and roast to perfection with a subtle hint of rosemary for flavor. Squash might be the hardest vegetable to chop. Do you agree? It seems like every time I use squash I’m slightly scared I’m going to lose a finger. While you can 100% use pre-cut squash (I’ve done this many times!) I figured I would share some tips and tricks to cutting butternut squash with confidence.  How to Prep Butternut Squash Prep: The key to cutting butternut squash is working with flat surfaces when you can… and using a sharp knife. A dull knife will be your nemesis with squash! Start by cutting off each end of the squash so you have a flat top and…

Why I tried Nutrisense (and What I Learned)October 27, 2021 at 11:52AM For the past week and a half, I tried out Nutrisense and wore a CGM to monitor my glucoses levels.

Makeup Artists Say These 6 Moisturisers Will Age You in Reverse

October 27, 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.) That said, there are a small number of products that come pretty close, and we’re about to share an edit of them below.Per a roster of celebrity makeup artists—Emily Cheng, Naoko Scintu and Emma White Turle—we’re uncovering a curated selection of the best anti-ageing moisturisers. The keyword here being curated because according to them, not every cream or moisturiser on the market works the same. Luckily, they find that the below six do wield high-performing effects…

I Think This Dress Length Is the Easiest to Wear With Boots

October 27, 2021 at 08:00AM I don’t have a fashion crystal ball, sadly, so I can’t tell you what the weather will be in a few weeks’ time. But you know what I can tell you? In a little under a month, we’re going to be in autumn, and that, my friends, is what I like to call midi-dress time. For starters, it’s the best length whatever your height. It’s also great for the slightly warmer autumn days but also a great option for cooler months, making it the ideal outfit option for the changeable weather we’re currently experiencing. What I’m saying is, and there’s no fighting me on this, the midi dress reigns supreme. Hands down, it’s also the best frock to wear with boots.In short, it is the Goldilocks of dresses—not too long and not too short, which makes it ideal for showing off…

Yep, We Still Rate Arket’s Puffer Coat as One of the Best Around

October 27, 2021 at 08:00AM Last winter saw a surge in sales of puffer coats, and we won’t be surprised if we see the same again this year. True, we’re not (currently) in any kind of lockdown, but British winters are pretty consistently cold. Not to mention that one of the biggest coat trends of autumn/winter 2021 is the puffer. I have been on my own hunt to find the perfect puffer coat over the past week, and after hours of trawling, I settled on Arket's maxi down coat, a style that comes with a history of being extra popular, even before the temperatures started to dip this October. Back in February 2020, the shopping search engine Lyst revealed that amongst the biggest-selling trophy pieces of the season (many of which were expensive and designer), Arket’s perfect puffer made it onto the top 10. With its simple cut,…

The #1 Hair Mistake We’re All Making, According to Stylists

October 27, 2021 at 08:00AM We know how it is. You’ve already taken hours washing and conditioning your hair. Perhaps you’ve even sprung for a pre-wash treatment like a hot oil or maybe the Olaplex No. 3. Your hair is in tip-top condition and has already got ample product in it. Do you really need to apply another before you heat-style? The short answer is yes. Using a heat protector single-handedly keeps hair safe under the soaring temperatures of your hair dryers, straighteners, curlers and wands. The number of my friends who admit that they’ll often go in on their strands without any heat protection is baffling to me. It’s futile putting all that effort into keeping your hair healthy with conditioners and treatments and then using 180-degree heat on it without a shield. It’s like taking a dish out of a hot oven without mitts on—you’re going to get…
