August 13, 2021 at 07:20PM After spending most of last year in house slippers, it felt refreshing to be able to take out our going-out sandals to have brunch with friends, explore a museum, or visit a local art fair.

August 13, 2021 at 05:52PM Beyoncé’s new Ivy Park Rodeo collection for Adidas, which includes childrenswear for the first time, comes with a campaign that’s truly a family affair. Aside from celebrity appearances, such as Glynn Turman, who actually made his ranch available for the shoot, Beyoncé included all three of her children - oh, and her mom Tina Knowles-Lawson, who shared some behind-the-scenes footage from set. “At the ranch on a cow … a mechanical cow,” Tina said in one video, showing off the cowboy hat she was styled in. She also posted some background info about what went into setting the scene to capture the Ivy Park lookbook: “That’s me on a horse for the first time in about 25 years. Some people have been saying "I thought that was Beyonce”. I am in my IVY PARK and my cowboy boots…

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 à 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…

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…

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”…
