Lizzo Wants to Help Girls Struggling with Self-Confidence

October 13, 2021 at 10:10PM Lizzo is a bona fide style icon. Since she came onto the scene, the “Good As Hell” singer has never been one to shy away from innovative fashion statements, especially when the ensemble involves bearing some skin. Her most recent head-turning look was just this week, when the star stepped out in a crystal see-through dress. The glistening, sheer purple outfit is reminiscent of the famous Swarovski crystal gown that Rihanna sported to the 2014 CFDA awards — even still, it is so uniquely Lizzo. The fashion moment has (understandably) been the topic of social media praise since the first snaps hit the internet. To her fans, Lizzo’s ability to consistently turn these types of risquĂ© looks is a testament to her unshakable self-love. Now, she’s working to help others achieve the same self-confidence. Earlier this year, the…

17 Interesting and Creative Ways to Approach Turtleneck Dressing This Fall

October 13, 2021 at 09:38PM The turtleneck has been reinterpreted so many different ways through the years, but one thing remains constant: it’s a foundation piece for your wardrobe. No matter what details come into play - is yours ribbed? Is it thin enough to layer beneath a button-down? Does it have cutouts or an avant-garde shape that classifies it as more of a statement piece? - the turtleneck is a basic you start with. Lately, we’ve adopted ultra-cropped variations and sheer, mesh styles into our closets in an effort to channel the ‘90s, but there are so many other interesting ways to wear and layer your standard turtleneck if you haven’t been sweater shopping in a while. All the outfits we curated below are on trend for the season, and you can pull most of them off with clothing you already own.…

We Need to Keep Talking About the Lack of Size Diversity at Paris Fashion Week

October 13, 2021 at 08:35PM From memorable celebrity sightings (Hi Cardi B, Halle Bailey, Blackpink’s Jisoo, and Lori Harvey) to the chicest street style moments, Paris Fashion Week gave us plenty to rave about. Not to mention the highly photographed runways of enviable looks that set the trends we will soon welcome into our spring wardrobes. What was noticeably missing from the runway is a representation of different body types. While we saw everything from a ‘60s comeback with Dior’s party-ready ensembles to a y2K revival with Blumarine’s low-rise jeans and tiny cardigans, what was noticeably missing from the runway is a representation of different body types. We spotted Precious Lee at Lanvin and Balmain, Devyn Garcia at ChloĂ©, and Paloma Elsesser at ChloĂ© and Coperni, but these instances of plus-size visibility were few and far between, almost bordering on tokenism. Too many…

From The Perfect Denim To Everyday Accessories – These Latinx Fashion Brands Have It All

October 13, 2021 at 08:25PM We all have those tried and true household fashion brands we love to shop, but if diving into the interwebs as a fashion editor, or even simply as a fashion enthusiast teaches you anything, its that there are a wealth of smaller or new brands to discover. When you find them, they’re oftentimes so good they’re just begging to be shared. The unfortunate nature of the fashion industry is that small brands and minority-owned brands often go hand and hand due to the lack of exposure for them. But underexposure (which we’re here to change), is not to be confused with lesser quality – in fact, there’s a long list of Latinx-owned fashion brands you shouldn’t go another day without knowing. While it may be Latinx Heritage month, brands helmed by Brown creatives deserve a spot in your…

TikTokers Are Recreating Looks From Squid Game Just In Time For Halloween

October 13, 2021 at 08:10PM Squid Game fashion is having a moment. Yes, you read that correctly. The gory horror series that has taken the internet by storm is now influencing people’s wardrobes. First, some background. Netflix’s most popular TV show to date, the Korean thriller follows a group of debt-ridden citizens who compete in a series of high-stakes children’s games for the chance to win a life-changing cash prize. However, don’t be fooled by this simplistic synopsis. The nine-episode journey is a mix between the plot of The Hunger Games and the violence of a Quentin Tarantino film, as a game of marbles can result in a shooting spree with masked VIPs cheering in the background. View this post on Instagram   A post shared by HoYeon Jung(Chung) (@hoooooyeony) While the series has quickly become a must-see, Squid Game costumes are similarly…

All The 007 Merch That’s Coming In Light Of No Time To Die

October 13, 2021 at 08:03PM Since the first James Bond film Dr. No was released in 1962, 007’s sleek attire and shiny weaponry emitted a top-tier sense of luxury. And with each new film, viewers are enthralled by the high-tech gadgets and superb fashion statements the spy sports. James Bond is more than a franchise — it’s a cultural phenomenon, rediscovered and beloved by generations of people since the character’s creation by author Ian Fleming. The latest, 25th film in the franchise, No Time To Die, is especially meaningful, as it marks Daniel Craig’s fifth and final performance as the leading man, and the introduction of the first Black woman to play 007, with actor Lashana Lynch tapped for the celebrated role. The return of James Bond reminds us of the extravagance we all feel while ogling over the luxury aesthetics that have…

Insecure Season 5 Is Already Giving Us Some Serious Outfit Inspiration, and It’s Not Even On Yet

October 13, 2021 at 07:40PM Issa’s romantic life - not to mention her friendship with Molly - hangs in the balance as we head into the fifth and final season of Insecure. We’re not exactly OK with waiting it out (why does Oct. 24 still feel so far away?), but comforted by the fact that we are getting a sneak peek at Issa, Molly, Kelli, and Tiffany’s latest looks. In new stills from the show, we’re treated to a glimpse of the girls, styled in easy takes on denim, a sporty tracksuit and fresh plaid for Issa, and new Bottega for Molly. These covetable, albeit relatable looks are another testament to the expertise of costume designer Shiona Turini, who takes the helm of the show’s wardrobe again for the last season. Inside, you can expect more of the contemporary cool, high-low mix Shiona’s…

Did Apple Watch’s Fitness+ Meditation Classes Cure My Insomnia?

October 13, 2021 at 04:08PM I’ve tried a lot of things in my life to help me sleep. I’ve tried herbal tinctures, weighted blankets and many meds. I’ve tried quitting caffeine, taking cannabis, doing cognitive behavioural therapy, getting acupuncture and paying a nice lady to hypnotize me into a stupor. While all of these things help some of the time, I’ve basically spent countless hours of my adult life lying awake at night or worrying that I will soon be lying awake at night. While my sleep battles have been going on forever, these days I can also add sudden nonsensical fits of blinding perimenopausal rage that leave anyone who dares move my coffee cup — WHO DOES THAT?! — quivering in their wake, plus the exciting development of brain-scrambling panic when I get overwhelmed by deadlines, to my high-strung repertoire. So when…
