These 12 Skincare Products Are So Good You’d Have No Idea They’re Vegan

October 26, 2021 at 06:00AM Some words in beauty are considered dirty. In the UK, where our beauty products are heavily regulated to ensure they meet stringent health and safety standards, marketing terms such as clean and toxic-free make mostĀ beauty experts turn their noses up. As a result, there’s a whole load of results-driven beauty buffs out thereĀ who don’t want to give such products the time of day.One word thatĀ all too often gets lumpedĀ together with beauty’s “dirty” terms is vegan. The reason? Because many of the things that beauty marketing experts deem “unclean” also make the products not suitable for vegans. As a result, it often feels as though beauty products can’t be vegan without also being branded “clean,” leaving thoseĀ who want hardworking, efficacious, science-backed skincare products that are also vegan feeling left behind.Because the truth is vegan-friendly beauty products serve a far…

Transparency Checklist: How to Spot Greenwashing and Shop (More) Sustainably

October 25, 2021 at 10:44PM We’re officially in the age of brand collaborations. From unlikely pairings like Crocs and Balenciaga to luxury fashion house partnerships such as Fendi and Versace, two brands coming together to create a collection is a surefire way to garner some press (ahem) while imagining new product possibilities. But while brand collabs attract attention, shoppers are increasingly looking for more than just flashy fashion drops. Instead, consumers are adopting a sustainability mindset — and more than ever expect brands to step up in the face of the climate crisis. Some companies are addressing this growing demand: Most recently, Tommy Hilfiger and Timberland collaborated on a collection the brands’ say is focused on sustainability, with the line featuring pieces made from ā€œrecycled woolā€ and ā€œsustainable rubber.ā€ And while fashion brands committing to be environmentally-friendly is a step in the right…

22 Old Navy Sherpas We Love (Since Leaving Home Wrapped in a Blanket Isn’t an Option)

October 25, 2021 at 09:30PM Fleece is nice and so is flannel but, when it comes to the snuggliest fabric, sherpa has to come out on top. There’s just something irresistible about how the nubby material looks and feels during cold weather. Of course, the exact style is up to you, but we found a bunch of these pieces we absolutely love right at Old Navy, including neutrals and bold colors, too. Maybe you want a tunic-length top for your favorite leggings, or perhaps a hoodie you can cinch to crop at the waist over jeans instead? We also found jackets that button and zip up so, whether you’re thinking of this more like a sweater or more like a coat, there’s something in our favorites ahead to perfectly suit you. P.S. All of these are an extra 30 percent off (with the…

We Spy a New Telfar Bag on Insecure, and Yes, We Need to Secure It ASAP

October 25, 2021 at 08:55PM As soon as the clock hit 10:02 last night, I was glued to my projector screen, ready to bask in the camaraderie shared between my favorite characters of Insecure. As the first episode of the final season *cue the tears* aired, Issa Dee (Rae), Molly Carter (Yvonne Orji), Kelli Prenny (Natasha Rothwell), and Tiffany DuBois (Amanda Seales) visit their alma mater, bringing with them their buzz-worthy styles and infectious sense of humor. Among the inspiring fashion moments we lived for, the sage Telfar bag debut is probably our favorite one. When we spotted it on Issa Rae as she walked the halls of Standford University alongside Molly, we immediately knew stylist Shionat Turini was at work behind-the-scenes to put the brand’s new colourway under our radar. We always have our eyes peeled for new Telfar product drops, and…

October 25, 2021 at 08:47PM It’s always a fashion show at the Wade house, but lately we’ve been treated to some behind-the-scenes snaps that really amp up the excitement for future red carpets Gabrielle and Dwyane will walk down. The celebrity couple posed for pics dressed in the same pair of Etro pants during a topless fitting. (Union works with stylist Thomas Christos and Wade with Jason Bolden, who were likely on location for the session.) “Fittings šŸ–¤šŸ‘«šŸæšŸ–¤,” Gab captioned the smoldering mirror selfie. While we’re not sure when the matching Etro trousers will see the light of day, less than 24 hours later, they were outfitted head-to-toe in Prada, save for Dwyane’s Dickies trousers. “One more time but WITH shirts onšŸ˜ŽšŸ˜›,” Gab teased this time around. Gab was wearing a shortened version of the classic Prada poplin button-down teamed with pinstripe pants,…
