Experts Say Great Skin Is All About Breaking These 6 Beauty Habits

December 23, 2021 at 06:00AM Getting to grips with exactly what sort of beauty practices are right and what are wrong can feel quite overwhelming. One minute, double cleansing is all the rage, and the next, everyone’s preaching that it’s wasteful and unnecessary.

So if you’re fed up of spending a fortune of anti-ageing lotions and potions to no avail, it could be worth taking a long, hard look at your routine as a whole. To help you establish exactly what parts of your regimen could be working against you, we’ve enlisted the…

Expect to Receive *Tons* of Compliments on These Stunning Bridesmaids Dresses

December 23, 2021 at 03:00AM It doesn’t matter if you’re currently planning your own nuptials, supporting your inner circle as part of their wedding party, or simply watching 27 Dresses on repeat; it’s safe to say that finding a bridesmaids dress is no easy feat. Not only is it really, really tricky to find a style that suits everyone, but we also need to state the obvious: bridesmaids dresses don’t have the chicest reputation. Instead, so many people spend a pretty penny on a dress they don’t really love and will only wear once. (Translation? Your hard-earned money is just collecting dust in the very back of your closet.) Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be that way. Nordstrom has on-point clothes and accessories year-round, so it’s not too shocking that it has an impressive selection of bridesmaids dresses you’ll actually want to wear…

Dua Lipa’s Sexy Catsuit Is Reminiscent of Another Plunging Versace Look We All Love

December 23, 2021 at 12:33AM Image Source: Getty / Vittorio Zunino Celotto Whether it’s a skintight catsuit or a plunging neckline, there doesn’t seem to be a single fashion risk Dua Lipa is afraid of. And why would she be, when she can pull it all off? On Wednesday, the Versace darling shared a few silly snaps wearing a colorful psychedelic print jumpsuit with the brand’s name plastered across the front. As if the form-fitting silhouette in itself wasn’t sexy enough, the piece also came with a deep V that dipped all the way down to her belly button. She posed for the photos with a bright blue Versace La Medusa handbag to match. Upon close observation, the neon-colored catsuit almost feels like a modernized take on Jennifer Lopez’s unforgettable jungle print dress at the 2000 Grammys. Check out Dua’s full look for…

I’m Leaving Y2K Fashion and Fanny Packs in 2021 – Here’s What I’m Bringing in 2022

December 22, 2021 at 10:40PM The close of the year always feels like an invitation to take stock of my life, and the first thing I typically start with is my closet. There’s a reason I feel more at peace when my clothes are sorted: styles I haven’t worn in months put in a donation pile, shirts I reach for daily hung at the front, go-to shoes and bags securely placed within eyesight. The pandemic has no doubt disrupted the way we dress, putting forth a sense of comfort that feels like a nonnegotiable, yet it has also inspired a host of new designs, color combinations, and prints. While I can appreciate a cool trend (fluffy bags are my latest obsession), I don’t define my style around what comes and goes. Instead, I see fashion as an attitude, in my case, one that…

December 22, 2021 at 09:58PM In some much-needed feel-good news, TimothĂ©e Chalamet and designer Haider Ackermann, whose looks the star has memorably favored on the red carpet, teamed up to design a hoodie that raises awareness and supports efforts to fight the humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan.

In Defense of Carrie’s New Clothes

December 22, 2021 at 08:20PM If you were watching Sex and the City (or tuned into the reruns), you were likely showing up as much for the fashion as you were for the sex. We watched to see what Carrie Bradshaw was wearing the way we scroll through Instagram in the age of influencer fashion. Carrie gave us outfit inspiration that was both high fashion and also down to earth, a brand of high-low authored by Patricia Field, who famously helmed the wardrobe for the original series. It’s the eclectic hallmark of Carrie’s style and every woman who attempted to emulate it. Fortunately, the reboot delivers on the fashion front again (though am I the only one waiting for the sex to kick in?). With Molly Rogers, a longtime colleague of Field’s, and Danny Santiago behind the costumes for And Just Like That,…

2021’s Triumphant Return of Celebrity Couple Dressing

December 22, 2021 at 06:25PM From Meghan Markle and Prince Harry to Rihanna and A$AP Rocky, we’re going to come right out and say it: 2021 had some of the best celebrity couple fashion moments of all time. Matching couples’ fashion is important for a celebrity duo to nail (both the real-love relationships and the ones just for publicity), because it demonstrates a visual connection between two people. Each coordinating couture moment highlights a cohesion between a famous duo, a shared aesthetic that reminds you “we’re rich, we’re hot, and we’re in love”. These sartorial matchy-matchy moments are non-verbal signals that they’re status is “together,” an aesthetic celebration of a harmonious union and a way to build the new couple’s synergized brand (#couplegoals). As we look back at 2021, here are some of the famous couples who won fashion. Continue Reading… Author Katie…

Everyone Asks Me Where I Got My Outfit When I Wear This Affordable Jumpsuit

December 22, 2021 at 05:30PM At this point in my life, I’m all about outfits that are versatile, comfortable, and stylish. However, it’s not always easy finding fashionable pieces that check all of my boxes. I’ve searched high and low for winning looks, and I’ve found that “instant outfits” like dresses and rompers are some of my best options. While anything with a shorter length is perfect for the warmer months, in the colder months, I always turn to jumpsuits, because I can find options with long pants as well as long sleeves. I usually purchase a new one every season, and this season, I made my favorite purchase yet: Old Navy’s Long-Sleeve Cropped French-Terry Utility Jumpsuit ($55). As soon as I saw it online, I knew it was going to be a piece I wore over and over again. I’ve already worn…
