Sex and the City’s Reboot Launches Today, and Carrie’s Outfits Need to Be Seen

December 09, 2021 at 10:41AM It was back in July that the reboot of everyone’s favourite fashion-centric show, Sex and the City, officially began filming in New York City, and today sees the the (fairly quick!) launch of And Just Like That… on Sky Comedy. That’s right: Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte are back in action and wearing some very on-brand outfits for each of their characters. (Sadly, Samantha will not be part of the new spin-off, and her sassy ensembles and witty one-liners will be sorely missed.) Big has just made his first appearance, and it’s intriguing to see what Carrie wears alongside him, a feathered headpiece reminiscent of her wedding day? Hmm.Thanks to paparazzi images, we have the very first look at what the ladies are wearing in the show. Naturally, shoe-obsessed Carrie is wearing some statement sky-high platform heels with her flouncy skirt and…

Ariana Grande Went Pantless in the Most Popular Heels of 2021

December 09, 2021 at 08:00AM Ariana Grande's shocking ability to mimic music’s greatest talents—including CĂ©line Dion and Whitney Houston—isn’t the only thing that the “Positions” singer has impressed us with lately. Her outfits, too, have been particularly awe-inspiring since she signed on to be a judge for The Voice a few months back. Grande’s latest getup for the NBC series, though, just might be her best yet—and that’s saying something after she wore the OG Versace minidress from 13 Going on 30 back in November. On Wednesday, Grande posted a slideshow on Instagram that displayed her look from Tuesday night's episode. For the reveal of this season’s semifinalists, the newest coach on the show (with the help of her longtime stylist, Mimi Cuttrell) chose to wear one of our favorite risquĂ© trends of the year: an oversized blazer as a dress, which she paired with sheer tights, a leather neck scarf and the sky-high platforms that everyone is talking about…

I’ve Had So Many Compliments on My Lashes Since Using This Cult Product

December 09, 2021 at 08:00AM I always felt like I had long lashes. Between that and using a lash curler and a selection of curling and lengthening mascaras every day, I felt like my lashes were perfectly fine—no further assistance necessary. I very rarely wore falsies and never tried extensions; I just didn’t feel like I needed extra help. But as is the nature of being a beauty editor, I was curious about RevitaLash’s eyelash growth serum. Its growing power is hinged on the BioPeptin Complex, a mix of peptides and botanicals that helps to strengthen lashes and aid growth over time. It’s become a cult favourite for beauty lovers around the world, and I began to wonder if its claims of achieving longer, stronger lashes really hold up. RevitaLash Advanced Eyelash Conditioner isn’t new by any means. (Although, the brand is launching a new brow-and-lash masque…

From Now on, This Is How I’m Doing Wedding Guest Dressing

December 09, 2021 at 08:00AM I won’t be the first or the last person to ever panic about what to wear to a wedding. The truth is that it's difficult because we’ve all been hardwired into buying something new for the occasion. I imagine this is something to do with the psychology behind getting dressed. A new dress will make us feel and look better, so we’re always striving for the next dress to give us that confidence boost. I get it because I’ve been there, but there are two major problems with this thinking: One, it’s not ethical to continue buying a new dress every time there’s a fancy event on only to never wear it again. Two, it’s not a financial option for most of us. But what if I were to tell you that you can wear a new dress to every nuptial you’ve…

Forget LED Masks—This Skin Tool Is Set to Be 2022’s Most Wanted Beauty Product

December 09, 2021 at 06:30AM I would like to start this review by saying that I am not a die-hard fan of facial tools or gadgets. When it comes to my skincare routine, I am very lazy. I want to cleanse, slap on a couple of hard-working products and be done with it. And while I have used different facial tools in the past and been impressed with the results (LED masks, I’m looking at you), I very rarely find the time or energy to use them. So when I received news that aesthetician to the A-list Shani Darden was launching a new facial-sculpting tool for a cool ÂŁ345, it’s fair to say I wasn’t signing up for waiting lists. It’s not that I didn’t believe it could work but rather I didn’t see the point in adding another (very) expensive product to my collection of gadgets currently…

I’m Under 5’3″, and These Are the Petite Staples I Swear By

December 09, 2021 at 06:05AM I remember the first time I was mistaken for a child as an adult. I was travelling on a bus to my job at the time, and the bus driver asked me what school trip I was going on, assuming I was part of the gaggle of kids on the same bus. Reader, I was 21. For that reason, for a long time, I bemoaned my 5'3’’ height. I hated that I had to ask people to reach things for me in shops and that I’d still get ID’d well into my 20s. And that’s before I’ve even discussed issues with clothes and finding the right pieces to fit my frame.Now that I’m in my mid-30s, not only do I love it if I get asked for proof I’m over 18, but I’ve also managed to hone down the ultimate…
