September Is Delivering Big on Celebrity Style – and We’re Not Even Talking About the Met Gala

September 16, 2021 at 11:30PM Celebrity style has already taken a more glamorous direction than swimsuits and coverups, and we’re just halfway through September. Not to knock beachy looks, but with the return of red carpets in Venice, parties, and Fashion Week taking over NYC, the fall is about to get a little more Fashion - and we’re not even talking about the Met Gala. The proof is in looks from the likes of Gigi Hadid in a slick leather blazer and a very cool pair of heels or Gabrielle Union, who stepped out showing off a glammed-up take on athleisure that we’ll be thinking about all month. Here, take a closer look at the best celebrity style of the month so far, as we welcome a whole new season. Continue Reading… Author Hannah Weil McKinley | citywomen.co Selected by CWC

Okay — Let’s Talk About The Nicki Minaj Vaccine Twitter Debacle

September 16, 2021 at 09:55PM Nothing gets the internet talking quite like inflated testicles. That’s the latest falsely claimed Covid-19 vaccine side effect that has been gaining widespread attention, thanks to pop culture titan Nicki Minaj. We didn’t want to engage in this objectively messy topic, but the situation has resulted in international furor — multiple global health experts and even the U.S. White House have gotten involved — so we feel we have to. It’s important to debunk false information, especially when it’s coming from someone like Minaj, who has substantial social media platforms (22.7 million Twitter followers, to be exact). After tweeting false information about the Covid-19 vaccine earlier this week and angering a slew of health officials, Nicki Minaj was contacted by the U.S. White House, who offered to put her in touch with a doctor to discuss vaccine safety.…

Aurora James Takes Centre Stage as the CFDA Fashion Awards Return In-Person

September 16, 2021 at 09:55PM The fashion world has been anything but boring this week — VMAs, TIFF and Met Gala, we’re looking at you. To continue this wave of excitement, the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) has just announced the nominees and honorees for the upcoming 2021 CFDA Fashion Awards. Aside from the official news that the ceremony will be happening in person (!) on November 10 after being held digitally in 2020, the equally exciting announcement is that Canadian designer Aurora James will be taking the spotlight with both an honour and a nomination. CFDA has granted the Guelph-born creative with the coveted Founder’s Award for her initiative: the 15 Per Cent Pledge.

Gabrielle Union Is the Walking Definition of Glamleisure in This Stella McCartney Outfit

September 16, 2021 at 09:35PM Is Gabrielle Union’s look not the most cozy-meets-glam, post-party outfit you’ve ever seen? Following her night out at the Met Gala, for which she wore Iris Van Herpen to celebrate American Fashion, Gab turned to UK’s Stella McCartney for a sustainable press look while promoting her new book You Got Anything Stronger? in NYC. The coordinates come from the brand’s Resort 2022 collection and were teamed with Amina Muaddi’s iconic sculpted slingbacks. The brooch embellishment on the pointed toe perfectly accented Gab’s rhinestone miniskirt, which came with a boudoir twist - a lacy trim along the side slit. While her bottom pieces were delicate and feminine, a tough, sporty Sherpa like this blue Stella one shows she can incorporate two different vibes into one look. And if she can, we can. That was our thought process, anyway, when…

September 16, 2021 at 08:30PM From the moment I started watching Insecure, I was drawn not only to the relatable characters, but I also found myself patiently waiting to see what Issa Rae would wear on each episode.

Of Course We’re Talking About the Lingerie in Erotic Thriller The Voyeurs – Here’s Where It’s From

September 16, 2021 at 07:24PM Erotic thriller The Voyeurs, now streaming on Amazon Prime Video, stars Euphoria and The White Lotus’s Sydney Sweeney, Paper Towns’s Justice Smith, and Bohemian Rhapsody’s Ben Hardy, along with newcomer Natasha Liu Bordizzo. It’s invited a wide range of reviews and critiques, but there’s one thing no one can deny: it is quite seductive. From a styling perspective, that led costume designer Romy Itzigsohn straight to the lingerie section, and she was scanning for bright, eye-catching pieces, from lacy bodysuits to strappy garters. After all, these couples spy into each other’s apartments, and a lot of the scenes are filmed from the perspective of someone’s window. The fashion, then, had to be exciting; something to see! But a lot more thought went into the clothing than it might initially appear on a superficial level. Romy took POPSUGAR through…
