The Ivy Park Halls of Ivy Collection Is Here – See What’s Left to Shop!

December 10, 2021 at 08:14PM Dropping on Dec. 10, the latest Ivy Park drip comes hot on the heels of its Peloton collaboration that included bright neon activewear and the 58-piece rodeo lineup that celebrated the impact of Black men and women on American Western culture. Now, we have a splashy campaign for the Halls of Ivy Collection, with cameos from Natalia Bryant and Ava and Deacon Phillippe (Reese Witherspoon’s offspring), and an adorable matching family moment from BeyoncĂ© and her kids. As for the clothes, the lineup is, as you might expect, prep-school inspired - but complete with a streetwear-focused, atheleisure bend. Houndstooth prints are playfully reimagined on body-hugging leggings and sports bras, hoodies, and even pool slides, while plaid blazers are meant to be layered over tees and zip-ups, and suit pants are less tailored, resembling track pants. The looks, like…

Tracee Ellis Ross Posts a High Fashion Holiday Card I Want to Hang on My Fridge

December 10, 2021 at 07:46PM If there ever was a high fashion holiday card I’d want to hang on my refrigerator, it’d have Tracee Ellis Ross’s face on it. So personally, I felt it was perfectly appropriate to see the multi-hyphenate star pop up on my feed, decking the halls in Bottega Veneta from head to toe. She was headed to the brand’s Soho store opening in New York City alongside stylish partygoers like Tommy Dorfman, Lil Kim, and Richie Shazam, outfitted by longtime stylist Karla Welch in a liquid sequin fall 2020 turtleneck gown. Ross accessorized with the covetable pouch everybody wants and, surprisingly, a pair of Bottega’s Puddle boots in kiwi, which lent a decidedly casual touch. Of course, she pulled off the unexpected combination with ease, showing off all angles of look, including the cutout at the back of the…

I’m Obsessed With These Affordable Zara Trousers – Get Them Before They Sell Out

December 10, 2021 at 06:30PM Out of all the fashion trends 2021 has brought us, my absolute favorite has to be trousers. I’ll admit: in the beginning, I wasn’t too interested, but when I saw some of my favorite influencers wearing trousers and absolutely rocking the look, I decided to take the plunge and purchase my first pair. Personally, I’ve always been more of a denim girl, and wearing trousers definitely took some getting used to. But once I did, I never looked back. I now reach for my trousers ten times more often than I reach for my favorite jeans, mostly because trousers are so much more comfortable and forgiving. Plus, they can easily be styled up or down with a heel or a sneaker, and they can honestly pull together any look. I purchased my first pair of trousers almost a…

Gossip Girl Costumer Designer Eric Daman Breaks Down the Show’s Next Round of Iconic Outfits

December 10, 2021 at 06:25PM The original Gossip Girl inspired a generation of time withstanding fashion trends to come, ever private school prep-centered they may be: collared tops, feminine bow ties, plaid or otherwise A-line skirts with tights, berets and the ultimate crowd favorite, Blair Waldorf’s headbands. To no surprise then, fans had high hopes for equally delectable outfits when its reboot aired in July, and with Eric Daman on board, the same costume designer who helmed the wardrobe of the initial band of Constance Billard high school teens, the appetite was naturally met. Daman’s approach is fittingly different this time around, with the now prominence of Instagram and its influential position in fashion, as well as the presently widespread conversations around sustainability and diversity in fashion that were nearly non-existent when Gossip Girl first aired in 2007. Part one of the twelve-episode…

Where to Get Your Wedding Dress Tailored in Person After Buying It Online

December 10, 2021 at 06:06PM As a COVID bride, I approached the wedding dress search apprehensively, never knowing whether or not I’d actually even have a wedding, never mind find The Dress on any given shopping appointment. When I was finally able to meet with a specialist at Markarian in New York (masked, of course), the studio was closed to other customers and I didn’t bring any family or friends. I was longing to try on a particular gown that I’d been eyeing and hoping to customize. Sure enough, once I was wearing it, I nodded at myself in the mirror and thought, well, this is it. Whether I walk down the aisle in 2022, 2028, or never at all, this is my wedding dress. I felt proud that in a world of so many unknowns, at least this I was sure of.…

Miley Cyrus and Pete Davidson Are the Quirky Style Duo We’ve Been Waiting For

December 10, 2021 at 05:20PM Look, I’m happy for Pete Davidson and Kim Kardashian - I really am, and I wish them nothing but happiness and plenty more Staten Island dates. But if they don’t happen to work out in the long run, I’m shipping Pete and Miley Cyrus. For one, they complement each other’s slightly chaotic and quirky energy so well, but beyond that, they’ve already got the whole coordinated style thing down to a science. Just check out their joint appearance on The Tonight Show for all the proof you need. While promoting their forthcoming New Year’s Eve special and talking about their matching tattoos, the duo wore subtly synchronized outfits that prove their friendship runs deep. For the late-night interview, Miley seemingly played up her new Cruella-esque hairstyle by wearing a fuzzy white jacket the Disney villain would totally wear,…

Carrie Bradshaw’s Funeral Dress Was a No Brainer For the Wardrobe Team – and Yes, It’s Vintage

December 10, 2021 at 04:22PM “I just want to get there before other people and make sure everything is the way I want it,” Carrie says on the phone before Big’s funeral as she sits down in her closet alongside a pearl clutch and a pair of white, caged leather pumps she had already laid out. It wasn’t a question what she would wear to say goodbye to the love of her life publicly in front of family and friends. Of course, as she, Stanford, and Anthony make their way through the doors and enter a stark white room with rows of chairs perfectly aligned, it becomes clear Carrie picked the only chic place for a funeral in Manhattan. It’s here that we take in her own version of a little black dress, hence the episode name - a teacup silhouette with an…

Friday FavesDecember 10, 2021 at 03:25PM Hi hi! How are you? What are you up to this holly jolly weekend? We have an Elf party with friends – all the kids are wearing pajamas and watching Elf – a birthday party, I teach barre and train a few clients, and making tamales at my mom’s house. In my brain, it’s January already, but I’m trying to enjoy the last few weeks of this year as much as possible. I’d love to hear what you have going on! Obligatory yearly tree pic! This one is a GIANT – a 15-ft beauty. Soooooooo when I first saw this tree, I told the Pilot that it was the one. I then proceeded to wrap my arms around a few branches in a joyful embrace, but my bubble was quickly burst when I learned the price of said (disposable)…
