Post category:TB

January 19, 2022 at 08:30PM 2022 is ushering in a new bridal trends, lineup of fresh engagement ring shapes that run the gamut from unique in design to striking in color. We talked to some of the world’s most prominent jewelers, and the trendsetters behind smaller brands, to see what clients have been requesting. It seems like big oval shapes, fancy cut accents, and multi-stones are definitely sticking around. And, rather than finding the iciest diamond in the case, people are instead prioritizing sentimental value or personal, hidden touches that make their sparklers stand out. That’s where color comes in. When you consider the fact that no two stones are alike, you may want to source your own emerald, sapphire, or ruby to highlight your originality. Finally, don’t underestimate the androgynous appeal of a thick band, decorated in embellishments (or not) in place…

J Lo Taps Into the Matrix-Style Trend With Risqué Leather Bra-Top

January 19, 2022 at 06:15PM Leave it to Jennifer Lopez to own any fashion trend, from Western-inspired style to most recently, the bra-top infused with a Matrix-style sensibility. In a recent Instagram post, the singer donned a skin-tight criscross leather bra-top that is as sharp as her fashion taste. It is clear by now that the 52-year-old multi-hyphenate isn’t one to shy away from bold skin reveals (who can forget the iconic Versace moment), and she wears everything with a decidedly feminine and confident attitude. This time was no different, and we’re suddenly ready for spring. She paired the bra-top with white paperbag waist trousers cinched around the waist, creating a nice visual contrast. Multiple necklaces, rings and bracelets embellished the actress’s neck, all from BVLGARI’s iconic Serpenti, B.zero1 and Divas’ Dream collection. This elevated fashion moment was complete with a cropped modern…

TikTok Got Me To Try a Pair of Cameltoe-Proof Underwear- and They Actually Work

January 19, 2022 at 06:10PM I’m just going to come right out and say it: it’s time to talk about cameltoes. We’ve all been there at one point or another- we slip on our favorite pair of workout leggings and running shoes, only to look in the mirror and see that we can see much more than we bargained for. Namely, the outline of our labia majora. While some of us may have no problem with the idea of showing a little extra, others might not feel so comfortable. I am firmly stationed in the latter camp, which is why when I first heard about Jiv Athletic’s Cameltoe Proof High Rise Thong ($34), I knew I had to get my hands on a pair immediately. Like most good things in my life, I discovered the existence of cameltoe-proof underwear while scrolling through my…

January 19, 2022 at 04:57PM André Leon Talley, who died January 18 at age 73, was the poster boy for a bygone era of fashion media, when the focus was on designers and their craft, and when knowledge of fashion history was a valued asset. “He was a one man style encyclopedia,” Toronto writer Shinan Govani declared on Instagram to mark the death of André Leon Talley. André Leon Talley and Anna Wintour at the 1999 Met Gala. Photography courtesy of Rose Hartman/Getty ImagesWhen he was travelling the runway circuit as an editor for American Vogue, Talley’s assessment of a collection was often a lesson in fashion history, with references to Cristobal Balenciaga’s innovative silhouettes, or how Yves Saint Laurent revolutionized women’s dress. His observations were always delivered with excitement and appreciation, rather than the dry tone of an academic. Everything was, “Fabulous,…

January 19, 2022 at 03:15PM We still have a few months of parka wearing, driveway salting and wind chill calculating ahead of us, but the countdown to spring (and the chance to ditch our beloved puffers) is on. And just like our wardrobe, our beauty routine deserves a little seasonal refresh, too. As we say goodbye to winter, the season’s warmer hues and our dry skin, we welcome fresh complexions, bold accents and the sense of optimism and reinvention that spring brings. To prepare, we asked Essie’s global lead educator and celebrity nail artist Rita Remark and Maybelline New York’s lead makeup artist in Canada, Grace Lee, about the top spring 2022 beauty trends (and how to update our makeup and nail kits accordingly).
