The Muses From Hercules Have Nothing on Lizzo and Cardi B’s Sexy Outfits in “Rumors”

August 13, 2021 at 05:26PM Disney, if you still haven’t cast the Muses in that live-action Hercules movie of yours, consider Lizzo and Cardi B’s “Rumors” music video their official audition for the role. The musical duo channeled Greek goddesses for the production, dripping in gold from head to toe and wearing some seriously sexy outfits that rival the Muses’ body-hugging gowns. Let’s break down and fully appreciate each fashion moment, shall we? The “Rumors” video kicks off with Lizzo in a shimmery toga-like dress styled with a smattering of jewelry and metallic sandals with shin protectors Ă  la Hercules. After she struts among larger-than-life vases and dances atop a giant Greek column, Cardi B enters on the Mount Olympus-inspired scene in a baby bump-baring getup. While unraveling a seemingly endless scroll, she sports a gold breastplate and arm cuff custom-made by Misha…

Texture Talk: The Best Combs and Brushes for Curly Hair

August 13, 2021 at 05:17PM If you have curly or coily hair, a thorough and effective detangling process is an essential part of maintaining hair health. To prevent tangles and single strand knots that can eventually lead to breakage, it’s important to detangle hair at every step of the washing and styling process — especially after taking hair out of a protective style.

We’ve rounded up some of the best detangling brushes for curly hair, plus multipurpose combs and the perfect brush for slicking down edges, to make sure the only labour-intensive job you undertake is getting those tangles out of your hair.

Rihanna Is a 2000s Flashback in $1,850 Balenciaga Jeans and a Harley Davidson Top

August 13, 2021 at 04:20PM Rihanna enjoyed date night in New York City wearing a look influenced by the early aughts. Styled by Jahleel Weaver, the billionaire and major icon was in pieces plucked from luxury fashion houses, including her deconstructed, baggy Balenciaga jeans that cost nearly $2K, her silk headscarf, and her camo leather bowling bag. Rihanna strapped her snakeskin slingbacks over the heels of her denim and let gingham, khaki-colored boxers peek out from the waistband to add more dimension. On top, she wore Connor Ives’s reconstituted Harley halter, which is still available to shop and reminds us of the legendary brands we used to rep proudly in the 2000s. Accessories like multilayered choker necklaces, dark, square sunglasses, and mismatched earrings finished off her outfit for the evening, which was ultimately the most polished ensemble we’ve seen created from such rugged…

I’m Buzzing About Rens Slip-On Sneakers Made From Used Coffee Grounds. Are You?

August 13, 2021 at 01:30PM I was THAT college student who was utterly convinced they’d built up a tolerance to caffeine because of the copious amounts of coffee consumed to power through peer reviews and midterm papers. Though I’ve sworn off caffeine for health reasons - it has been two whole years since it’s run through my veins! - I still have a love for all things coffee. This was why my cup-of-Joe-devoted heart was extra intrigued to hear that Rens Original shoes, launched in 2019 by Jesse Tran and Son Chu, both Vietnamese and living in Finland, were made out of coffee waste. Getting into logistics, each Rens sneaker consists of six recycled plastic bottles and 150 grams of coffee grounds. The outsole is natural rubber, and the yarn derived from coffee waste contains antibacterial and antiodor properties. “Ren” also means “clean”…

Friday FavesAugust 13, 2021 at 11:43AM Hi hi! Happy Friday and three cheers for the weekend. How did the week go? Ours was a good one and a bit of a blur.

It’s time for the weekly Friday Faves party! This is where I share some of my favorite picks from the week and around the web. I always love to hear about…

5 Haircuts That Will Trick People Into Thinking You Have 3 Times More Hair

August 13, 2021 at 08:00AM Ever since I became aware of my hair back in high school when I finally retired my beloved slick ponytail, I’ve lamented my fine, thin locks. And after becoming a beauty editor, it’s become my mission to find out which haircuts are best for feigning the look of fuller, thicker hair. Here’s what I’ve learned: it’s all about the optical illusions your stylist creates in addition to how you care for and maintain your cut at home.“If you have fine or thin hair, the haircut you choose is super important,” explains celebrity hairstylist Ted Gibson. “In general, blunter lines are always better, and if you do opt for layers, keep them minimal. Bobs, lobs, long hair that’s roughly one length, and pixies are great for this type of hair.” Oh, and avoid heavy hair products and overworking your hair at all…

Angelina Jolie Wore the Trouser Trend That’s Fresher Than Cropped Skinny Pants

August 13, 2021 at 08:00AM Angelina Jolie’s outfits always catch our attention, but especially when she’s in Paris (because who doesn’t love to see what people wear in Paris?). Jolie was recently in the City of Lights with her kids wearing a characteristically chic outfit. She wore her signature neutral color palette, opting for a white T-shirt, tan accessories and the subject of this story: full-length wide-leg khaki pants. If trouser muses were a thing (and perhaps they are), Angelina Jolie would be at the top of the list. You may recall that Jolie recently wore wide-leg jeans to the airport, and the look basically went viral. Wide-leg, full-length pants are a staple of hers, and they’ve pretty much taken the place of cropped skinny trousers for the time being—just see Jennifer Lawrence, Kendall Jenner and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley for confirmation. Scroll on to see how she expertly styled them…

7 Shoes That Will Go With Every Single Dress You Own

August 13, 2021 at 08:00AM If there’s one thing we know, it’s that Who What Wear readers are obsessed with two things: dresses and shoes. These two subjects always dominate our So Should I Buy This? Facebook group, and now that we find ourselves on the cusp of bare-leg season, they’re proving to be all the more practical.While we’re quick to cover the latest trends across both wardrobe items, we thought we’d go back to basics and have a look at the shoes we should be wearing with dresses this summer. As such, we can conclude that there are seven key footwear styles that seem to suit dresses more than other shoe types.Chances are you’ll already own some (if not all) of the shoes on our list, but that’s the beauty of taking a step back from the noise of the trends and, instead,…
