Rihanna’s Date-Night Style Is Setting the Standard For Effortless Dressing

January 12, 2022 at 05:55PM The year is starting out strong with a healthy dose of celebrity couple style servings. And the latest fashion inspiration came from internet favorites Rihanna and A$AP Rocky, who have already sent the people buzzing about their often coordinated date looks. On a recent dinner date, Rihanna stepped out in an instantly recognizable logo-embossed Gucci gilet, part of the brand’s Hacker Project with luxury player Balenciaga. The 33-year-old star and newly appointed Hero of her native land Barbados, layered a gilet over what seems to be a black midi dress and styled a shawl as a headscarf as she headed to dinner in Santa Monica. Her glasses, thick black frames and red-colored lenses, were also from Gucci. Together, the pieces conveyed an effortless off-duty look that is true to the singer’s date-night style. She dialed up the sex…

I’ve Lived in Paris for 8.5 Years—This Is the Dress French Women Always Wear

January 12, 2022 at 08:00AM I’m a big advocate for the capsule wardrobe—an armoire filled with cherry-picked items that, to borrow from Marie Kondo, give me only joy when wearing them. Conscious shopping is something I’ve adopted too in the past eight and a half years since moving to Paris, and it’s also incidentally something I write about in my new book, Practising Parisienne: Lifestyle Secrets From the City of Lights, which is out now. I’ve found that Parisians have a knack for picking forever pieces, are less likely to buy into fast fashion and have a penchant for vintage and pre-loved clothing that they mix in with more up-to-date styles. They have certainly inspired my own style that’s a lot less try-hard than it used to be, and I now invest in pieces that last: elevated basics that I can wear again and again,…

This ÂŁ9 Product Is the Reason Celebrities Always Look So Glowy

January 12, 2022 at 08:00AM When it comes to this time of the year, it’s totally normal for skin to seem seriously dull. In fact, beyond looking a little lacklustre, it could possibly be feeling tight, dry and sore. If there’s one thing that the beauty world is certain of, it’s that cold weather is rarely good news for your complexion. And don’t I know it. Despite the fact the summer months had my skin radiating an out-of-this-world glow, the start of winter had me sporting a drab, lacklustre and seriously distressed face.At the start of the season, as I emptied out the contents of my makeup bag in the search for any kind of illuminating product to pour over my face/bathe in, I couldn’t help but wonder if my skin would ever get its glow back. Sure, I could slather my cheekbones…

January 12, 2022 at 08:00AM When promoting a fashion movie, one must dress the part, which explains why Lady Gaga, who is currently doing press for Ridley Scott’s upcoming Gucci biopic House of Gucci, has been going all out with her style choices of late. Her most recent look was especially on point, with the “Rain on Me” singer donning a chocolate-brown, flossy, cutout dress that featured an extremely high slit up the right leg. Making the look even sexier, she styled the dress—by the just-launched label Et Ochs (founded by former Cushnie et Ochs designer Michelle Ochs)—with D'Accori sky-high platform heels and gold jewelry courtesy of Alighieri. She wore the barely there look to a London screening of the film, which is out November 24. That same evening, she debuted a very different, though equally perfect ensemble that included a brown, logo-covered Gucci dress and matching cape from the Italian house’s…
