Ariana Grande Performs With Kid Cudi in an Immaculate Yellow Bow Gown and Opera Gloves

December 15, 2021 at 03:55PM Though Ariana Grande started filming The Voice’s finale in a black leather Vivienne Westwood dress, that was only a foreshadow for what was to come when she took the stage with Kid Cudi to perform “Just Look Up.” The song is one of the many tracks from Netflix’s Don’t Look Up movie, which premieres on Dec. 24 and features an all-star cast with cameos from Grande and Cudi. The single is so powerful that it called for a look more extraordinary in shape and striking in color, and Ariana and her stylist Mimi Cuttrell found that in a voluminous yellow Valentino Haute Couture bow gown from the spring/summer 2019 collection. The strapless design flowed to the floor underneath her as she performed, keeping her grounded in a moment of stillness - something only a beautiful couture number like…

A Dermatologist Ranked the 3 Worst Body-Lotion Mistakes

December 15, 2021 at 08:00AM If there’s anything I’m very strict about when it comes to my beauty routine, it’s my body lotion. I might forget a step in my nighttime skincare routine, but I never forget to put body lotion on after I shower or in the mornings, even I don’t shower. For the most part, it’s paid off. Aside from the occasional eczema flare-up on my hands, arms, or neck, I have pretty smooth skin. But since I’m a curious person and like to question everything, I wanted to know if there were some things I was missing when it comes to body-lotion application. So I reached out to dermatologist Naissan O. Wesley, MD, FACMS, of Skin Care and Laser Physicians of Beverly Hills to get her tips and to see what role body lotions play in reducing premature ageing or the signs of ageing.…

The Duchess of Cambridge Just Wore the Most Daring Colour Trend

December 15, 2021 at 08:00AM One would never really describe Kate Middleton’s style as divisive or challenging. She is the Pied Piper of classic. She is the leader when it comes to lovely dresses and delightful coats. More often than not, she plays it safe in her favourite pumps and beloved trinket jewellery. It’s all par for the royal course, we know, but every now and then, the Duchess of Cambridge goes through a more daring streak, and when it happens, you can be sure that our editors become available to pore over every detail. Hot on the heels of a rather “wow” appearance last night for the premiere of the latest Bond movie, No Time to Die, the DoC followed up her stellar golden caped gown from Jenny Packham with another British designer today. Choosing a vibrant purple trouser suit from Emilia Wickstead was an inspired and rather bold…

Jennifer Aniston and J.Lo Both Wore the Denim Trend I’m Replacing Skinnies With

December 15, 2021 at 08:00AM I wouldn’t say that Jennifer Aniston and Jennifer Lopez have similar personal styles. The latter’s tends to be much more bold and experimental. But here they are wearing identical outfit formulas in the same week in the same city. Who would have thought? They were both photographed in Los Angeles wearing black turtleneck sweaters, flared jeans and top-handle bags. Are you taking notes yet?Flared jeans happen to be one of my favourite denim trends right now—one that I’m willing to swap out my beloved skinny jeans for.

The “Dated” Trend French Women Still Love to Wear

December 15, 2021 at 06:04AM One thing we’ve noticed about French women is their shared ability to breathe new life into older trends—looks some might even deem “dated.” But with their natural flair and laid-back approach to styling, we find ourselves being influenced to wear trends previously written off once more. Enter corduroy. While this retro fabric has long been considered a basic, we haven’t seen it as much in the last few years. But make no mistake—if you follow the Gallic-girl dress code, it’s one of the season’s biggest trends.Although the material has roots in the ‘70s, French women are giving their corduroy staples a modern feel, wearing them in fresh new ways. Take Julie Sergent Ferreri, whose bright-pink corduroy suit was one of the sleekest looks we clocked during Paris Fashion Week. And Franny Fyne? She makes her classic tan corduroy blazer feel bang-up-to-date with the…
