December 08, 2021 at 08:05PM It’s nearly winter, and I’ve finally come to grips with reality when it comes to my footwear. While I’ll put on a full-length coat and even gloves much of the time, I was walking my pup in sandals up until a few weeks ago. As any dog owner can surely relate, when it comes to early-morning and late-night trips, I just can’t be bothered with shoes that require lacing or zipping, and honestly, pulling on slip-on sneakers with my hands is too much actual effort when in a rush. I had been eyeing moccasins as an alternative since it’s easier to just slide a foot in (especially if they’re a bit roomy) but hadn’t been looking for actual slippers until I spotted these Old Navy Plaid Faux-Fur Trim Moccasin Slippers ($22, originally $25). Not only are they especially…

December 08, 2021 at 07:25PM They say a dog is a man’s best friend, and I believe leggings are a woman’s. The comfortable pants have become part of my everyday wardrobe (much to my wallet’s dismay), and I rarely ever wear anything else. Perfect for that athleisure look I opt for when I don’t know what to wear, leggings are the go-to piece I can count on for when I want to look just good enough yet put in little to no effort. Unfortunately, athleticwear usually comes with an unreasonable price tag, and while I have succumbed to paying the price a time or two, I can’t always justify buying overpriced leggings when other brands carry them for much less. I used to think that buying more affordable workout pants would mean that I would be risking the quality, but after trying a…

December 08, 2021 at 06:11PM Ariana Grande has hit us, baby, one more time with her Britney Spears obsession. After recently treating fans to a cover of “Oops!… I Did It Again” on Jimmy Fallon’s new That’s My Jam game show, Ariana paid fashionable tribute to the music icon on The Voice this week. Sticking to the Monday episode’s ‘90s night theme, she wore an outfit inspired by one of Britney’s most memorable …Baby One More Time Tour looks from 1999: the famous hot pink tube top and white pants with pink knee patches. Ariana’s iteration of the costume incorporated some modern-day upgrades - she swapped white platform sneakers for white Giambattista Valli platform boots, her crop top was lined in rhinestones, and her flared pants were far more high-waisted than Brit’s were back in the day - but her homage to the…

December 08, 2021 at 05:51PM Christina Aguilera brought us back to the early 2000s at Tuesday night’s People’s Choice Awards, and she went all out. The veteran triple threat, who was honored with the show’s first-ever music icon award, not only performed a nostalgic medley of her old hits like “Genie in a Bottle,” “Dirrty,” and “Beautiful,” but she also dressed in an inspired look from that very era. Wearing a black and yellow corset bodysuit, flared pants, and chaps to match, Christina reminded us of a memorable performance of hers back in the day, when she sang “Dirrty” during an MTV Stripped concert in 2002. Back then, she’d worn a similar black and yellow bikini top, chaps, and uh, tennis wristbands, with her signature black hair extensions at the time. The singer rocked the nostalgic re-creation on the PCAs red carpet, as…

December 08, 2021 at 04:35PM West Side Story’s Rachel Zegler can rock a ball gown, but this one wins the award for dreamiest. The rising star, who was also cast as Snow White for the live-action remake, works with stylist Sarah Slutsky for the red carpet, having worn dresses by Dior, Carolina Herrera, and Michael Kors before. But for the LA premiere of West Side Story, the duo tapped the Elie Saab fashion house for a blush-toned gown with a sweetheart neckline covered in sequins and a chiffon trailing skirt finished with floral embroidery and built up with tulle. A velvet bow cinches the waist, making the look appear all the more feminine and princess-like. Accessories were wisely kept minimal - just delicate Neil Lane drop earrings, Jimmy Choo shoes, and a Tyler Ellis envelope clutch to complement the tone and texture of…

December 08, 2021 at 03:51PM If anyone can get their hands on merchandise from The Hacker Project, it’s Beyoncé. The singer slipped into the Gucci x Balenciaga hourglass crystalized jacket and matching pantaleggings for dinner with JAY-Z, those two pieces alone ringing up at $23,800. But Bey’s stylist KJ Moody also scored her the silver embellished heart bag, perhaps the most sacred piece from Gucci’s Aria collection that was unveiled back in April. Add on rhinestone gloves, diamond-encrusted Messika hoops, and lucite sunglasses, and the outfit felt very appropriate for the multi-hyphenate star. It’s a reminder that no one wears high-fashion luxury better than Beyoncé, and also that The Hacker Project is now available to shop on both gucci.com and balenciaga.com, should you want to splurge big time on a covetable holiday gift that doubles as a piece of fashion history. Ahead, you…
