Anne Hathaway Continues Her Winning Style Streak in a High-Slit Dress

March 18, 2022 at 05:36PM Image Source: Getty / Emma McIntyre Anne Hathaway is continuing her fun style streak on the “WeCrashed” press tour. At the global premiere of the Apple TV series on Thursday evening, she wore a bright-blue look that, once again, brought joy to the red carpet. In fact, Hathaway and her stylist Erin Walsh chose a specific shade of blue - cerulean, to be exact. Her sheer-paneled David Koma dress featured a high slit at the side and a sizable, asymmetrical cutout that extended all the way across her chest, revealing a black bralette. The actor, who portrays Rebekah Neumann in the new show, paired the one-sleeved dress with bow-tie pumps from Aquazzura and Bulgari jewels. Known for his sculptural statement dresses and inventive cutouts, Koma has been a popular choice for date nights and red carpets alike. Stars…

Zac Posen on The Outfit and the Power of a Suit

March 18, 2022 at 04:23PM Zac Posen is no stranger to suits. In fact, he’s worn many over his lifetime — black ones, blue ones, skinny ones and extravagant ones. But he’s also worn a lot of hats (see what I did there?): a celeb-favourite fashion designer, bridal designer, a former judge on Project Runway, former creative director of Brooks Brothers, designer of Delta Air Lines’ new uniforms, cookbook author and the subject of the documentary House of Z. So it’s fitting that his latest endeavour as the costume designer of The Outfit fuses both his passion for suiting and his diverse background. View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Zac Posen (@zacposen) The film, starring Mark Rylance, Zoey Deutch, Dylan O’Brien and Johnny Flynn, takes place in the fifties in Chicago and follows British tailor Leonard (Rylance) as he tries…

Stylist Monica Rose on the New Way to Dress For the Office

March 18, 2022 at 04:20AM The last two years have upended office culture as we know it, which means our ideas around workplace style have also been forever changed. Gone are the days of stomping the hallways in heels and in their place is a penchant for all-around comfort, including the age-old sneaker. Monica Rose is well-versed in sneaker culture, as a stylist who has put some of her famous clients like Shay Mitchell and Lauren London in the comfortable yet chic shoe silhouette. Now, she’s helping everyday businesswomen figure out how to incorporate sneakers into their work-centric looks through a partnership with Foot Locker for Women’s History Month. In a video highlighting their collaboration, Rose styles creatives and entrepreneurs including Jessica Wu, Scottie Beam, Vic Jacobi, and Jenn Barthole in sneaker-anchored outfits for heading back to the office or traveling to a…

Are Conventional Deodorant Formulas *Actually* Dangerous?

March 18, 2022 at 01:30PM Five years into using natural deodorant, I came to a horrible realization: I smelled — and it wasn’t just a light, feminine musk or the antique must of a used-book store; it was more like a sweaty gym sock that had been festering in a duffle bag for a month or the rancid bloom of a corpse flower. It wasn’t that I’d had this problem for years on end. However, something about the combination of entering my 30s and exercising more regularly had transformed my body into a stink factory capable of producing the most foul olfactory sensations. Not even regular “hippie showers” (rubbing one’s armpits aggressively with a damp washcloth) could stave off the cartoon cloud of scent that emanated from my body as if I were Pigpen, Charlie Brown’s bedraggled co-conspirator. I began using natural deodorant…

Alexa Has Spoken—These Comfy Slingbacks are the Shoes of the Season

March 18, 2022 at 10:02AM Suffice to say; I have a pretty big thing for shoes. A fashion editor who loves shoes? Go figure! But out of all the items you can decorate your wardrobe with, shoes are the piece that I find the hardest to resist. Sizing is seldom an issue with shoes, for one, and eleven years into my career, I’m still impressed by how the simple switch of a shoe can completely reimagine an outfit. As such, I’m always open to adding new shoes to my wardrobe. The pair I currently have my eye on? Gucci’s crystal slingback shoes. Interest piqued? It should be.Alexa Chung wore the Gucci shoes I’ve had my eye on for the last six months. I first saw Gucci’s crystal slingbacks last winter—its logo GGs applied delicately to mesh in teeny rhinestones. Although perfect for parties and…

Trust Us—If You Only Get One Haircut This Year, Get This One

March 18, 2022 at 08:00AM When the now-popular shag haircut started garnering attention towards the end of 2020, we knew it would be the sort of hairstyle that would stick around. You see, over the past couple of years, how we approach our hair has totally changed. For starters, we want our hairstyle of choice to be as effortlessly wearable as possible. Pre-2020, we were used to reaching for heat-styling tools every single day, nowadays, we’re feeling much more comfortable simply embracing our natural texture. On top of this, we’re also leaning towards styles that don’t require regular salon appointments. After spending the best part of a year unable to get salons, it’s safe to say we’re appreciating low-maintenance styles more than ever. And it is for those two reasons that the shag was bound to become a go-to style.Supermodel Julia Stegner’s long shag haircut is…

Attention, Petite People: I Just Found 25 Spring Buys That Will Actually Fit

March 18, 2022 at 08:00AM Remembering how to dress for a new season is difficult for anyone, but when you’re under 5’3”, it can be even more of a chore. Yes, we can always turn to our old faithful minidresses and cropped jackets that we rely on every spring, but if you’ve noticed some gaps in your capsule or are looking to update your basics with some on-trend 2022 pieces, the process of finding exciting items that actually fit can seem a little overwhelming and even off-putting, right?I feel you.

These Hairstyles Will Take Years Off Your Face

March 18, 2022 at 08:00AM I don’t know about you, but the past year has felt long. I’ve got more grey hair and more wrinkles, and despite going to bed earlier, I’m still tired. There’s no denying that I’ve felt like I’ve aged faster in lockdown. While there’s nothing inherently wrong with this (I have no issues with changing hair colour or a few lines on my face), the speed at which it has happened has been a little disconcerting. I want to feel like myself again, and for me, that means getting a haircut. Over the past few months, I’ve lost count of the number of people who have said their hair needs cutting, from my husband to my colleagues as well as my parents. The craving to get a chop has been strong. Personally, I’m desperate to get my hair cut back into a…
