Dua Lipa Pulls Off the Polarizing Paper-Bag Pants Trend

May 09, 2022 at 06:15PM Dua Lipa has a penchant for sharing behind-the-scenes style shots from her Future Nostalgia tour, and for her latest stop in Antwerp, Belgium, she demonstrated that she’s always ready to try different pants trends. This time, the “Levitating” singer took high-rise, paper-bag slacks for a spin. The baggy striped cargos came as part of a set, complete with a sporty cropped vest that bared her midriff while she toured the city. These loose-fitting trousers are a departure from her recent low-rise “thong” moment or the Dion Lee fold-over pants that memorably displayed hip cutouts. Featuring oversize pockets at the back and a long, pooling leg, they’re like the more structured version of a palazzo vacation pant, and, as part of a co-ord, they feel even more contemporary. Lipa complemented this ‘90s look with a two-tone logo baseball cap…

Dove Cameron Wears a Tube Top and Opera Gloves at the GLAAD Awards

May 09, 2022 at 05:50PM With a new musical direction comes a fresh look, and ever since Dove Cameron reintroduced herself with the debut of “Boyfriend,” she’s displayed a sultrier, darker sense of style. At the GLAAD Media Awards on May 6, she wore not one but two striking looks that embodied this new era. Cameron first posed on the red carpet in a strapless black Prada crop top, which she paired with a statement ruffled skirt layered with pink tweed textiles and white tulle from Saint Sintra’s fall/winter 2022 collection. With the help of stylist Stephanie Tricola, Cameron added black leather opera gloves and sky-high Amina Muaddi stiletto boots to the ensemble. She then amped up the drama for her “Boyfriend” performance, changing into a black Victorian-inspired ball gown incorporating similar tulle and ruffle details in beige. Underneath the sleek black dress…

J Lo Nailed a Major Bridal Trend in This White Maxi Skirt

May 09, 2022 at 05:20PM Over the weekend, Jennifer Lopez spent Mother’s Day enjoying lunch with her kids at Nobu in Malibu, CA. The singer and “Marry Me” actress opted for a breezy, all-white outfit for the sunny, near-70-degree weather, giving off instant bridal vibes in her two-piece set. Of course, she chose luxe designer finishes to complete her button-down shirt and seersucker maxi-skirt pairing. Lopez cinched her waist with a gold Hermès H belt and held onto what appears to be the famous Hermès Himalayan crocodile Birkin bag, which retails anywhere from $45,000 to $65,000, according to a Sotheby’s report. Keeping in line with her recent bohemian-inspired looks, the newly engaged superstar layered on an oatmeal-colored ribbed fringe cardigan and capped off the ensemble with taupe suede boots. Her other accessories included her signature oversize metallic sunglasses, a gold heart-shaped pendant necklace…

J Lo and Ben Affleck’s Matching Button-Downs Prove Their Wardrobes Are in Sync

May 09, 2022 at 04:44PM As they continue to look for their dream home, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are showing that their everyday style is perfectly in sync. The recently engaged couple stepped out in coordinated button-down shirts for another house-hunting adventure in Los Angeles yesterday. Lopez’s shirt came in a deep forest green and was decorated with gold buttons, while two front pockets kept the relaxed style practical. The actress left the top buttons undone for a laid-back vibe. Meanwhile, Affleck sported a lavender shirt - which he rolled up at the sleeves to match his fiancĂŠe’s easygoing flair - and classic khaki pants. While her beau leaned on the casual side, Lopez chose to dress up her ensemble with high-waisted, button-front denim jeans; a deep-green Gucci belt; and her signature large gold hoops. She styled her hair in a relaxed…

Kim Kardashian Repurposed Yet Another One of Marilyn Monroe’s Dresses

May 07, 2022 at 11:58PM As it turns out, Kim Kardashian borrowed yet another look from Marilyn Monroe’s wardrobe the night of the Met Gala. After walking the red carpet in the sparkling, beaded Jean Louis naked dress Monroe wore to sing “Happy Birthday Mr. President” to JFK, Kardashian reportedly changed into a replica of the look to enjoy the exhibit, so as to preserve the garment. But in a May 6 Instagram post, she revealed that this emerald sequined Norman Norell dress was also sourced for her from the Monroe archives - this one to be worn at the afterparty. Monroe wore the backless Norell number, which is owned by Heritage Auctions, to the 1962 Golden Globes where she received the Henrietta Award For world film favorite. Kardashian and her team appear to have tweaked this look, however, so she could wear…
