Some of these boots have more of a pull-on Chelsea style, while others have buckles and even lug soles. They’re all a little bit different, but they’re all going to give you that crisp, pulled-together look you’re after right about now. Keep on reading to shop our 11 favorites.

H&M’s New Vegan Collection is PETA-Approved

October 26, 2021 at 08:32PM H&M’s recent sustainability push has earned the fast fashion retailer some moderate praise, and now it’s got the stamp of approval from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, or PETA. We know what you’re thinking: “Fast fashion” and “sustainability” in the same sentence reads like an oxymoron. But the global retailer has made legitimate strides towards eco-friendly clothing alternatives. In recent years, it has banned the use of fur, angora and exotic animal skins in its clothing, and does not accept wool from farms that use mulesing, a controversial practice of removing sheeps’ wool-bearing skin. In 2020, the Swedish brand topped the Fashion Revolution Transparency Index as the most transparent fashion company on policies like animal welfare, biodiversity, living wages, gender equality and supply chains, winning out against 250 fashion and apparel brands across the world. Most recently,…

How to Manifest What You Want: A Guide for Skeptical Beginners

October 26, 2021 at 04:16PM Every year from October 1 to November 1, I like to take a break from my cynical, Seinfeldian personality and, you know, believe in something. I tell ghost stories, read about witches and take my nieces and nephews trick-or-treating to feel the familiar high of Halloween. I even rewatch cult-classic Disney films like Halloweentown and Hocus Pocus, desperately yearning to believe anything is possible on All Hallows’ Eve. With layoffs and lockdowns on my mind last October, I had a hard time believing in anything. Like the rest of the world, I was trapped in my apartment with no end to the pandemic in sight. My mindless social media scrolling soon turned into YouTube rabbit holes and deep dives. Somehow, between endless Phoebe Bridgers covers and box braid tutorials, the algorithm served up an animated video titled, “If…
