March 08, 2022 at 07:00PM If you saw how many dresses I own, you’d probably audibly gasp. I am truly obsessed with the idea of a one-and-done outfit.

Sydney Sweeney’s Floral Bikini Is Straight Out of a “White Lotus” Episode

March 08, 2022 at 06:00PM Sydney Sweeney is spending her well-deserved time off lounging poolside in a bikini in Hawaii. After presenting at the Film Independent Spirit Awards in Santa Monica on March 6, the newly engaged “Euphoria” actor jetted off to Oahu to enjoy “72 hours off” with celebrity hairstylist Florido Basallo. While soaking up the sun at a tropical resort that looks a lot like the set where she filmed “The White Lotus,” Sweeney served up spring vibes in a floral-print bikini from celebrity-adored brand Montce Swim. The two-piece features an underwire top with thin straps and bottoms lined with dainty ruffles on the sides. She styled the suit with a straw hat, oversize brown sunglasses, and two gold chain necklaces, and the floral print popped against her new strawberry-blond hair color. This isn’t the first time Sweeney’s fueled swimsuit envy.…

Chloë Nails the Daytime Lingerie Trend in a Sheer Corset Dress

March 08, 2022 at 05:53PM Image Source: Getty / Christian Vierig Chloë has had quite the style evolution, and at this point, she’s mastered the art of making an entrance. The singer went sultry for The Hollywood Reporter’s Oscar Nominees Night on Monday, dressing in a sleek, black one-shoulder gown and striking silver jewelry. Proving all-black is anything but boring, Chloë’s floor-length dress, a custom piece by LVDF, commanded attention. While the sheer corset bodice hid behind the draping of her dress, the sexy lace-up back was on full display. Styled by William Ylvisaker, she wore matching arm-length gloves in the same glittery translucent fabric as her corset and added statement earrings and a choker to complete the glamorous ensemble. Dove Cameron, Karrueche Tran, Kristen Stewart, and Ariana DeBose were among other famous faces at the event. Chloë seems to have a fondness…

Rubber Rain Boots Are Fall’s Next It Shoe, According to Chanel

March 08, 2022 at 05:35PM In the Grand Palais Éphémère, which was swathed entirely in tweed, Chanel’s Virginie Viard made a case for the fashion house’s signature fabric. “I love working with it so much, I couldn’t live without it at Chanel,” Viard wrote in a booklet enclosed in the show tickets, which were also created in tweed. For the fall 2022 collection, the tweed theme materialized in suiting separates, cheongsam-style coats, knee-high socks, and, of course, quilted bags. Viard imagined the Scottish fabric in fun, energetic shades like purple, burgundy, fuchsia, pink, and turquoise. The reference? Gabrielle Chanel’s walks through the Scottish countryside. “Devoting the entire collection to tweed is a tribute,” Viard continued in the show notes. “We followed the footsteps of Gabrielle Chanel along the River Tweed, to imagine tweeds in the colors of this landscape.” Also inspired by Chanel’s…

Salma Hayek’s Daughters Are the New Style Stars to Watch at Fashion Week

March 08, 2022 at 04:50PM Salma Hayek, a longtime fan of Balenciaga, was one of the many stars who showed up to support Demna’s fall 2022 collection debut at Paris Fashion Week. But while she tends to arrive solo to sit front row, this season, Balenciaga was a family affair with her 14-year-old daughter, Valentina Paloma Pinault, and 21-year-old stepdaughter, Mathilde Pinault, right by her side. The 55-year-old actress has been married to chairman and CEO of luxury group Kering François Henri-Pinault since 2009. It’s rare, however, for the full family to make Fashion Week appearances like this one. The Pinault family’s looks were the perfect mix of edgy and timeless when they arrived at the show. All three ladies toted black Balenciaga handbags; Mathilde carried the XX Small Flap, Valentina brought the Le Cagole, and Salma accessorized with the Frame clutch. Towering…

The Best Beauty Looks from Paris Fashion Week

March 08, 2022 at 04:38PM In a surprise twist, the beauty trends out of Paris Fashion Week were arguably the month’s most pared down of all. Instead of delivering over the top glam, the city of lights’ message for fall entailed various levels of chic undress when it came to hair and makeup. Bare faces were taken a step further with seemingly not a speck of eye makeup (save for a strong brow) at shows such as Loewe, Elie Saab, Chloé and Balmain. The look was paired with the part of the moment (flat down the middle) at several shows, including Courrèges, Louis Vuitton and Acne Studios. If depending so heavily on a fine-toothed comb doesn’t appeal, the wet looks we saw in Milan continued at Sacai and Valentino, ensuring nary a blowdry is necessary. Ann Demeulemeester, Elie Saab, and Isabel Marant even…

On Being A Cry Baby

March 08, 2022 at 04:25PM As a young child, I was quick to tears. My emotions were not tended to by my parents and, at some point, I stopped tending to them as well. To my mother, a child of Ukrainian immigrants, and my dad, an immigrant from Macedonia, life was much more pragmatic. I was taught how to behave, not necessarily how to feel. But I felt everything. I’d cry uncontrollably when faced with most things I found too daunting: swimming lessons, gymnastics, the first day of school. With no one to hold space for my big emotions, I became numb to them and followed a life path that was more passively found than actively chosen: go to university, get a job, find a man to marry, have children. I was socialized to be a nurturer in a society that was suspect…
