Fall’s Denim Trends Are Here to Give Your Sweats a Run For Their Money

August 10, 2021 at 11:45PM Although it’s been a minute since we slipped into our jeans, we have been itching to dress up a bit, and what better way to welcome fall than with some new denim? One trend we’ll be seeing a lot more of is biodegradable denim. As more consumers develop a stronger desire to care for our planet, retailers are creating collections of stretch biodegradable denim made of plant-based materials that can decompose, producing a minimal environmental impact. We first saw this introduced at Stella McCartney’s fall/winter 2020 show and expect to see more brands adopting the new technology. Nostalgia will continue to play a big role with updated take on the ‘90s bootcut styles - think Rachel Green’s denim in Friends - and a '70s flare with an '80s pleated high waist. Ahead, learn more about this season’s biggest…

The couple was seen wearing similar outfits while taking a stroll in Los Angeles with their arms around each other. The “Watermelon Sugar” singer and Booksmart director looked adorable smiling in their classic summer outfits consisting of a baggy white tee, ripped jeans, and sneakers.

Prince Andrew Can’t Hide Behind His Royal Status Anymore

August 10, 2021 at 09:49PM On August 9, Virginia Roberts Giuffre filed a lawsuit against Prince Andrew, accusing him of sexually abusing her when she was just 17 years old, as reported by the New York Times. Giuffre, now 38, is a longtime accuser of Jeffrey Epstein, the accused sex offender who maintained a friendship with Prince Andrew for 20 years. Epstein died by suicide in jail while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges two years ago, and many high-profile members of his inner circle, including Prince Andrew, have since been suspected of taking part in the sexual abuse of minors. The Manhattan-filed court documents allege that Queen Elizabeth II’s second-born son abused Giuffre on three occasions about 20 years ago. They allege he forced her to have sex with him at the London home of Ghislaine Maxwell, a British socialite and Epstein…

August 10, 2021 at 09:15PM The fall 2021 collections revealed during Fashion Week have a way of uplifting, simply because they’re exactly what we want to be wearing. There are bright spots in every designer’s new offering - a shiny statement dress or flash of a sequined boot (we see you, Victoria Beckham) - but these pieces are still very wearable, mixed in with cozy knit skirt sets or oversize statement vests that are fun to layer. If you’re a fashion creative and you love to mix and match, you’ll have loads of fun incorporating fall’s co-ord sets into your wardrobe. You have the option of keeping your prints consistent from head to toe or switching up the color scheme, or just wearing one classic pattern, like Staud’s argyle.
