Lori Harvey’s $112 Cutout Crop Top Is Worth the Purchase, but You Already Knew That

September 23, 2021 at 05:35PM While out for an evening with Justine Skye, Lori Harvey dressed head-to-toe in one of her best ensembles. Who are we kidding? Every outfit this woman owns gets an A+ in our book. But needless to say, her velvet orange cutout crop top was the star of the show this time around - and it also happens to retail for $112. The piece comes from London-based label Loudbrandstudios, which is founded by Jedidiah Duyile and aims to connect women to their confidence through clothing. Inspired by African culture and early 2000s silhouettes, the high quality fabric used through all of the collections is sourced in London with comfort in mind. Harvey coordinated her own standout velour design with Remain trousers, Louis Vuitton’s Sac Plat bag in classic monogram, thick, gold hoops, and square-toe Bottega Veneta stretch sandals. Even…

Amandla Stenberg Wears Gucci’s Nipple-Pasties Dress With the Utmost Elegance

September 23, 2021 at 03:33PM Amandla Stenberg has reached for Gucci during the press tour for Dear Evan Hansen, and we’re really not surprised. Amandla has a penchant for daring red carpet looks, and she pulls them off with confidence every time. Some of Gucci’s most talked-about pieces in recent history were included in the pre-fall 2021 collection, and, for the movie’s Los Angeles premiere on Wednesday, Amandla went for the nipple-pasties sequined dress, which was originally teamed with bicep-length, fingerless gloves and nothing on top for the fashion house’s lookbook. Amandla, however, went a different route, choosing to layer a wool Gucci blazer on top of the slinky number to add sophistication. Their metallic embellished heels still picked up on the glimmering sheen of the skirt, and their smoldering eye makeup and pinned-up braids brought some edge. While the Gucci nipple pasties…

Did Old Navy Weave Its Activewear With Magic? Because These Leggings Are Quality

September 23, 2021 at 03:30PM One of the most relaxing (and sometimes most dreaded) parts of my day is going for a run. I typically throw on whatever workout clothes are clean and jog out the door. But lately I’ve been trying to spice up my workout clothes - look good, feel good, am I right? After investing in pricey leggings that left a dent in my bank account, I decided to hit up Old Navy for a pair (I own bike shorts from them that I love), and talk about a match made in heaven! Comfortable, stretchy, breathable, extra high-waisted with a hidden pocket in the back - I was displaced by these Extra High-Waisted PowerSoft Light Compression Hidden-Pocket Leggings for Women ($20-$40, originally $40) quality. I couldn’t believe they were from Old Navy - they felt so expensive! For reference, I’m…

I Asked a Dermatologist How to De-Puff Eyes, and the Answers Really Work

September 23, 2021 at 08:00AM The skin around your eyes is very delicate and thin, so you want to be gentle with it. That means using the right products and avoiding rubbing, scratching, or pulling at the area. Because that area is so sensitive, you might also find yourself dealing with things like dark under-eye circles, dryness, and puffiness. The latter part is one thing I’ve been dealing with a lot lately, so I went to a dermatologist for some answers.In fact, puffy eyes are one of the most common concerns that patients bring to their dermatologists, says Kathleen S. Viscusi, MD, FAAD, FACMS, co-founder and partner at Dermatology and Surgery Specialists of North Atlanta (DESSNA). Treating puffy eyes is a bit more complicated than you would think. “Effectively addressing this concern for each patient is much more variable. Just as there isn’t…

Here’s What a Dermatologist Really Thinks About These 6 Viral Skincare Products

September 23, 2021 at 08:00AM While social media can be a hub for all things fashion and beauty, skincare is a topic that can get a little tricky, especially when certain products start to trend. I’d be lying if I said I haven’t been guilty of succumbing to a viral product only to be disappointed when it didn’t exactly work for my skin. While following trends for clothes and makeup can be an easier feat, with skincare, it’s crucial to be cautious because what works for others may not work for you, and some products may seem like they’re working but can actually cause damage and irritation later on. It’s important to pay close attention to the ingredients before purchasing a product and to consult an expert if possible, especially if you’re facing specific skin concerns. Since I’ve been seeing quite a few products circulate around social media that have…

Sorry, Skinny Jeans—This Denim Trend Is Going to Be Huge

September 23, 2021 at 08:00AM Before we dive in, let’s just remember that in reality, skinny jeans could basically be considered a classic at this point. Sure, people may have varying views on the cut, but they’re more or less timeless. That said, a style on the other end of the denim spectrum continues to increase in popularity—and definitely will thrive come spring. Yep, we’re talking about those loose, straight-leg jeans. More specifically, the silhouettes that are especially relaxed.In fact, since making an appearance again last year, loose-fitting jeans are still very much a present part of the autumn/winter 2021 line-up.

From Now on, This Is How I’m Doing Wedding Guest Dressing

September 23, 2021 at 08:00AM I won’t be the first or the last person to ever panic about what to wear to a wedding. The truth is that it's difficult because we’ve all been hardwired into buying something new for the occasion. I imagine this is something to do with the psychology behind getting dressed. A new dress will make us feel and look better, so we’re always striving for the next dress to give us that confidence boost. I get it because I’ve been there, but there are two major problems with this thinking: One, it’s not ethical to continue buying a new dress every time there’s a fancy event on only to never wear it again. Two, it’s not a financial option for most of us. But what if I were to tell you that you can wear a new dress to every nuptial you’ve…
