Madison Bailey’s Strappy Skirt Set Earns the Pogues Their Cool Points on the Beach

August 18, 2021 at 06:24PM Madison Bailey and the rest of her Outer Banks cast mates have social media accounts full of behind-the-scenes photos from filming their Netflix show. But our favorite since season two started streaming has to be the above set of beach photos. Bailey wears a strappy black two-piece skirt set, accessorized with her character’s signature layered necklaces. The pleated co-ords are perfectly on trend for summer - there are plenty of similarly sultry, ‘90s-style alternatives we found to prove it! - and despite the good looks of the Pogues beside her, she’s still our biggest fashion icon. You can click through Madison’s full album to see Madelyn Cline make an appearance in tailored gray pants and a bralette, and check out another angle of Jonathan Davis, Chase Stokes, and Rudy Pankow in their cool-as-heck button-downs. Then, scroll through the…

How Trans Writer Estelle Grignon Overcame Her Fear of Swimsuits

August 18, 2021 at 06:25PM When I came out as trans in 2018, a part of me was always trying to hide. Sure, I was still a loudmouth who craved attention, and I loved wearing the most outrageous lipstick possible. But I also started wearing a lot of black, as if to blend into the darkness. I’d cover almost every inch of my body, and I’d mostly avoid public spaces. View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Estelle Grignon (@estelle.euphorie) And for about three years, I never came close to a body of water other than my own private bathtub. Like many transgender individuals, I had severe gender dysphoria (psychological distress caused when your gender identity differs from your sex-related physical characteristics) where I felt uneasy and uncomfortable in my body. As I was starting to reveal myself as a…

Naomi Osaka Dreamed Up a Sustainable Levi’s Collection That’s So Perfectly Her

August 18, 2021 at 05:55PM Naomi Osaka just elevated the sustainable denim game. This week, the four-time Grand Slam champion announced a limited-edition denim collection with Levi’s, and not only are all four pieces made from upcycled or vintage materials, but they also honor her Japanese heritage. Naomi worked with the Levi’s team to ensure they “captured her unique mix of sporty and feminine,” and after one look at these products, you can feel Naomi’s influence in the design of all four pieces. The collection includes a kimono, two pairs of shorts, and a bustier. The denim kimono ($380) features a dark wash denim with an obi belt. “I loved wearing kimonos when I was a kid. So, to be able to do it in denim felt really different and a bit unexpected,” Naomi said in a press release. The two pairs of…

Olivia Rodrigo and Iris Apatow Made Me Turn on Not Another Teen Movie – It’s Their Outfits For Me

August 18, 2021 at 04:43PM Olivia Rodrigo and Iris Apatow, who are good friends in case you haven’t checked Instagram, were spotted out in LA attending Jennifer Klein’s annual Day of Indulgence party. The duo channeled the early 2000s properly, selecting matching miniskirts and knee-high boots. But while Olivia tapped into her edgier side, walking tall in Marc Jacobs’s Margaret Platforms (which are sadly sold out) and rocking a mesh, psychedelic printed long-sleeve from O'Mighty, Iris was her schoolgirl counterpart in a khaki pleated skirt, sugar-pink blouse, chainstrap bag, and fuzzy bucket hat - an off-season accessory Rihanna certainly popularized this summer. Olivia’s accessories were standard for what we’ve seen from the rising star. She clutched her phone with a beaded strap and toted a snow leopard tote, the furry texture perfectly coordinated with her BFF’s hat. Finally, she wore retro sunglasses from…

Copenhagen Fashion Week SS22 Was a Lesson in Sustainability and Scandi-Chic

August 17, 2021 at 07:56PM There’s a magic to Scandinavia that is hard to quantify. The elusive and cool “it” girl that inhabits it and the effortless ease in which they approach life — think hygge, a lifestyle that’s all about embracing coziness, and minimalist Nordic interior design — has been coveted by North Americans for years. So leave it to Copenhagen Fashion Week Spring 2022 to host a stylish, chill and safe gathering (during a pandemic, no less!) that was as sustainable as it was fashionable. Considered by some as the fifth fashion capital of the world, the Danish city has made a name for itself for its environmental agenda. In 2020, Copenhagen Fashion Week introduced a three-year sustainability action plan to reduce 50 percent of its emissions and commit to a zero-waste target. The event is also holding designers accountable, and…

Cut It Out – Dua Lipa’s Peekaboo Catsuit Is Peak Charlie’s Angels Couture

August 17, 2021 at 02:31AM View this post on Instagram A post shared by DUA LIPA (@dualipa) A murder mystery dinner, a few rounds of Codenames, a Charlie’s Angels marathon - if espionage is the game, Dua Lipa has a look that will make even the most masterful villains do a double take. While on vacation in Ibiza, Spain, Dua posed in a bunch of palm trees while wearing a sleek black Marshall Columbia catsuit, reminding us that the cutout trend is definitely here to stay. Like remnants of the laser beams she’d no doubt have to dodge if she played a spy, the legs of Dua’s figure-hugging catsuit are lined with teardrop cutouts all the way up to her hip bones for a fun peek-a-boo effect. Turning our attention to the top half of her outfit, Dua paired the catsuit with matching…
