11 Cult Fashion Brands I Never Knew You Could Find at THE OUTNET

October 20, 2021 at 06:00AM If you consider yourself a fashion fan, I would guess that you’ve heard of THE OUTNET, the Net-a-Porter group’s indisputably chic contribution to the discount clothing market. Most fashion editors I know have at least one story about a particular bargainous designer buy that they tracked-down on the site. While we all know you can find plenty of big-name brands within the new-in section, I recently discovered that it’s a hidden gem for some of the industry’s coolest up-and-coming names.We’re talking the likes of Ganni, Nanushka, Toteme and Rejina Pyo—essentially the sort of cool, name drop-worthy labels that instantly signal one’s fashion insider status. Of course, there can be a risk with designer discount sites that you just end up with the fashion dregs that no one else wanted, but let me reassure you that there are plenty of time-tested staples to be found here. In fact, when I…

Emma Watson’s Sustainable Two-Piece Set Proves She’s Back in the Fashion Spotlight

October 20, 2021 at 04:15AM Emma Watson has arrived back on the fashion scene like she never left. Though the actress and activist refrained from social media for much of 2021, she’s treated fans to two head-turning style moments this week, and, as expected, both looks were created with sustainability top of mind. Just two days after wearing an upcycled Harris Reed wedding gown and bell-bottoms to the Earthshot Prize awards on Sunday, the 31-year-old star stepped out in a floral top and matching skirt to interview politician and environmentalist Al Gore. Custom-made by royal family-adored designer Emilia Wickstead, the two-piece set featured a cropped, ab-baring blouse and long skirt, both made of residual material from her resort 2022 collection. While offering a peek at her outfit on Instagram, Emma shared more details about how the ethical outfit came to be. “Thank you…

25 Dresses That’ll Complement Your Favorite Sneakers Better Than Pumpkin Spice Does Latte

October 20, 2021 at 01:05AM Dresses and sneakers are one of those combos that go together like peanut butter and jelly. Great on their own but even better together, and timeless in their appeal.

To inspire some new outfits this season, we searched for the best pieces to match up with your favorite sneakers like including minis (and high-tops), midis (plus slip-ons), and maxis (with classic canvas).

There’s No Fall 2021 Trend Bigger Than Furry-Trimmed Tops and Jackets

October 20, 2021 at 12:53AM Like clockwork, fall has again happened upon us too quickly, cueing a frenzy to curate a new wardrobe for the season at the very last minute. Before we start reaching for those predictable old faithfuls, though, (crewnecks, oversized sweaters and the like), this season actually feels like the perfect time to take advantage of some more playful cool-weather trends. So far, faux fur-trimmed tops and jackets are shaping up to be the season’s It-item, and they come with a number of exciting styling options. A cross between ultraposh and nostalgic, flamboyantly fuzzy details have steadily crept their way up from micro to mega trend status again, thanks to a few key players such as Saks Potts’s instantly recognizable trench coats, and House of Sunny’s signature zip-up cardigans. The trend has since been reimagined every which way, from the…

These Corduroy Overalls Are My New Favorite Fall Outfit Piece, and They’re So Affordable!

October 20, 2021 at 12:45AM Corduroy and fall go together like pumpkin patches and Instagram pictures, ghosts and goblins, and Amazon and last-minute Halloween costume ideas. There’s something special about wearing a cute corduroy outfit when the weather dips below 60 degrees, but finding the perfect look is often harder than coming up with a creative Halloween costume. Since I personally love a one-and-done kind of outfit (I’m already missing summer sundresses), I decided that this fall would be my season of easy outfits, and overalls were going to be my new sundress. After weeks of scouring sites for a pair (FYI, I haven’t worn overalls in years), I checked Old Navy to see if they had options since I’ve gotten more than one of my favorite fall outfit pieces from there this season (um, I’m obsessed with “this shacket). And just as…

The Beanie Is My Winter Essential, and It’s Going to Become Yours, Too

October 19, 2021 at 10:45PM I am a firm believer that if your head is cold, you are cold. That’s why a hat is an absolute essential come winter.

The Viral Christian Girl Autumn Meme is Back, and So is “Basic” Fashion

October 19, 2021 at 10:34PM Most social media users are well-versed in Hot Girl Summer. Coined by rapper Megan Thee Stallion in May 2019, the term is synonymous with someone who minds their business, does what makes them happy, and doesn’t care what others think. The feel-good phrase was widely popular in summer 2019, but as the season came to a close, it led to the birth of a new viral meme: Christian Girl Autumn. The meme was started by user @lasagnabby, named Gio, who wrote in a since-deleted tweet, “​​Hot Girl Summer is coming to an end, get ready for Christian Girl Autumn 🍂😍.” Attached to the tweet was a picture of two white women with very similar autumnal-style outfits — think skinny jeans, oversized cardigans/sweaters, infinity scarves — and long, perfectly curled hair. Gio later told Buzzfeed they found the photo…

Zendaya is the CFDA Awards Fashion Icon for 2021, Obviously

October 19, 2021 at 10:03PM Too much Zendaya in your newsfeed recently? Well, too bad, because we’re convinced that there is no such thing. To be completely fair, if it were any other celebrity we would surely be over it by now. After all, it’s nearly impossible to find a corner of the fashion world that the 25-year-old actor hasn’t reached in 2021. But Zendaya has somehow been able to overcome the negative side effects that often accompany overexposure and remains a fresh and exciting face even after extensive coverage — which is why it came as no surprise to learn that the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) will be honouring her with the title of 2021 Fashion Icon at the upcoming awards show. View this post on Instagram   A post shared by cfda (@cfda) Despite the pandemic delaying many…
