The star stepped out for dinner with her friend John Mayer at The San Vicente Bungalows in West Hollywood, and she gave off that perfectly free-spirited bohemian vibe in an oversize cable knit cardigan, grounded out with baggy distressed denim and heeled sandals. Rih layered on multiple necklaces, including some longer chain-link styles and two thick chokers, plus one chunky middle finger ring with a gemstone as tall as her knuckle. Underneath, Rihanna kept it cool and casual in a twisted knot crop top - because you know everyone’s wearing those well into fall and beyond as the belly-baring trend sticks around. Ahead, scope out Rihanna’s choice in cozy fall sweater from a few different angles,…

BaubleBar’s Halloween Collection Sold Out in 3 Days, But It’s Back in Stock Right Now!

October 07, 2021 at 06:45PM I was on Instagram last night, minding my own business, when I saw someone on Stories ask about Halloween costumes, and what people were thinking of dressing up as this year. I admittedly rolled my eyes, but then when I saw that BaubleBar had dropped its annual Halloween collection, I knew that I was wrong; it is officially time to start thinking about spooky season. If you’re a Halloween lover, you won’t believe how adorable these 13 earrings are. The collection initially sold out in three days, but the baubles are back, just in time for the holiday. Don’t wait, because who knows when they could sell out again! BaubleBar made cute pumpkin earrings, skeleton earrings, and even candy corn earrings (if that’s your thing). Plus, there are even some fun Disney villain earrings that will make you…

Zendaya’s Latest Red Carpet Serve Features a Gold-Plated Dress Snatched Right Off the Runway

October 07, 2021 at 05:04PM If you don’t have time to sift through dozens of Fashion Month runway photos to catch up on the latest trends, never fear - we can all count on Zendaya to show us each season’s standout looks. The stylish star did just that on Wednesday evening while attending the 2021 Women in Film Honors in an eye-catching Loewe dress that debuted at Paris Fashion Week just five days prior. Seemingly plucked right off a model and shipped overseas straight to Los Angeles, the gray sleeveless dress featured a large golden breastplate that extended all the way from neck to hip. Some may call it a giant metallic kidney bean or a shiny version of that apron you put on before dental X-rays, but we call it the epitome of high fashion, and Zendaya owned it like no other…

BeyoncĂ©’s Black Velvet Gown Took 10 Days to Make, and Boy, Was It Worth the Wait

October 07, 2021 at 04:43PM BeyoncĂ© joined her husband, producer JAY-Z, at the London premiere of Netflix’s The Harder They Fall, although she couldn’t be spotted on the red carpet. Nevertheless, the multihyphenate posed for photos for her stylist KJ Moody, showing off her custom velvet gown from every angle. The look was crafted over the course of 10 full days by Albanian fashion brand Valdrin Sahiti and is made from silk and velvet fabric with Lycra on the interior corset. The team posted a shot of Bey in the final look on Instagram, referring to it as her favorite black dress - so unsurprisingly, it seems like she had her pick from many. The outfit was complete with simple black sandals, a crystalized Judith Leiber clutch, sunglasses, and Lorraine Schwartz jewels. (Her pear drop earrings were 21 carats alone, but she also…

Actor, Singer and Red Carpet Slayer Cynthia Erivo is FASHION’s November 2021 Cover Star

October 07, 2021 at 02:30PM While the pandemic has waylaid the best of plans, Cynthia Erivo has risen to make the most of it. When I connect with the Grammy- and Tony-winning actor, singer and producer via Zoom in late August, she is in L.A. and sounds exceptionally at ease for someone on the brink of a monumental month. Erivo’s September started with jury duty at the 78th Venice International Film Festival and a rapid-fire round of breathtaking fashion moments, including one Schiaparelli Haute Couture number in which she seemed to be encircled by silver foil.

Pernille Teisbaek’s Mango Collection is Here and I Tried On the Best Bits

October 07, 2021 at 11:09AM Fashion collaborations are having a bit of a moment, and it feels like every month another brand announces that it’s joining forces with a high-profile industry name. As a fashion editor it’s easy to become cynical about these powerhouse pairings, but every now and then one comes along that hits the nail on the head. This month? It’s Mango’s collaboration with Scandi It girl Pernille Teisbaek. As one of the ‘original’ influencers, I’ve genuinely loved Pernille’s clean-lined yet statement-making style ever since I joined Instagram, and it’s this elevated approach to basics that winds its way through her Mango edit, manifesting in immaculate tailoring, versatile tank tops and flattering jeans. “I was thinking about the woman, the mother, the girl", Pernille explains. “It was important that we responded to the versatility and ease that busy, modern women need from their wardrobes. For me, that’s…
