October 19, 2021 at 10:34PM Most social media users are well-versed in Hot Girl Summer. Coined by rapper Megan Thee Stallion in May 2019, the term is synonymous with someone who minds their business, does what makes them happy, and doesn’t care what others think. The feel-good phrase was widely popular in summer 2019, but as the season came to a close, it led to the birth of a new viral meme: Christian Girl Autumn. The meme was started by user @lasagnabby, named Gio, who wrote in a since-deleted tweet, “​​Hot Girl Summer is coming to an end, get ready for Christian Girl Autumn 🍂😍.” Attached to the tweet was a picture of two white women with very similar autumnal-style outfits — think skinny jeans, oversized cardigans/sweaters, infinity scarves — and long, perfectly curled hair. Gio later told Buzzfeed they found the photo…

October 19, 2021 at 10:03PM Too much Zendaya in your newsfeed recently? Well, too bad, because we’re convinced that there is no such thing. To be completely fair, if it were any other celebrity we would surely be over it by now. After all, it’s nearly impossible to find a corner of the fashion world that the 25-year-old actor hasn’t reached in 2021. But Zendaya has somehow been able to overcome the negative side effects that often accompany overexposure and remains a fresh and exciting face even after extensive coverage — which is why it came as no surprise to learn that the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) will be honouring her with the title of 2021 Fashion Icon at the upcoming awards show.

October 19, 2021 at 09:32PM If you’re one of the brave souls attempting to purchase a holiday Nap Dress from Hill House during tomorrow’s launch, then good luck — you’re going to need it. Founder and CEO Nell Diamond’s prairie girl-meets-Bridgerton brand has become one of the most coveted clothing items to ever come out of social media. Initially launched in 2016 with a focus on bedding, everything changed for the NYC label in August 2019 with the introduction of the Nap Dress. View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Hill House Home (@hillhouse) The premise is simple: a cotton dress made up of a tiered layered skirt, smocked bodice and ruffled sleeves, available in various romantic patterns and colours. But therein lies the beauty. A comfortable dress that allows its wearer to go bra-free while still looking put together…

October 19, 2021 at 09:10PM German photographer Ellen von Unwerth is known globally for her ability to capture her female subjects in playful yet provocative moments. Her vibrant images have an energy that is almost palpable, and now, they’re coming to life even more with a new venture into world of NFTs as iconic images of three of our favourite ‘90s supermodels — Claudia Schiffer, Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss — will be sold as moving, digitized videos. In von Unwerth’s Supermodel Series, five famous images taken in the late ‘80s and ‘90s are transformed into animated artworks via NFTs, or non-fungible tokens. “Non-fungible” means the digital items are unique and one-of-a-kind, and thus cannot be replaced. The works will be auctioned off by celebrity NFT platform Cryptograph on October 21, and can be purchased using the cryptocurrency Ethereum. What a time to…

October 19, 2021 at 07:45PM “So excited to show you all the Coach purses I bought,” Tiktoker Anna Sacks (aka The Trash Walker) says, presenting bag after bag to her viewers. “As you can see, they’re all slashed, which is Coach’s policy. This is what they do with unwanted merchandise. They order an employee to deliberately slash it so that no one can use it.” @thetrashwalker #coach #donatedontdump #retailmademe #dumpsterdiving #shopping #climatechange #haul #free #eco #recycle #donate #nyc #thrift #repair #fashion #style ♬ Waltz of the Flowers – The Nutcracker – Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky The New York City-based environmental activist posted the now-viral TikTok — since amassing some 2.9 million views — on October 10 after purchasing the products from Texas-based influencer and dumpster-diver Tiffany She’ree.
