The incredible dress - or work of art, as many TikTokers have called it - features a fully boned corset, a mesh turtleneck that can be worn over the mouth and nose, and a cold-shoulder cutout for the vaccine, all made of recycled newspapers covering the good, bad, and ugly happening in America, from COVID-19 to the Black…

September 15, 2021 at 09:25PM Rosé’s Met Gala debut was certainly one to remember. The Blackpink member and solo artist, who was one of the first two female K-pop stars to be invited in the event’s history - the other being CL - walked the red carpet alongside Saint Laurent creative director Anthony Vaccarello, wearing a piece from the designer’s winter 2021 collection. If the little black dress with a large white bow happened to look familiar, that’s because Zendaya wore the exact piece on the cover of British Vogue’s October issue. But while the two may be rocking the same dress, the stars exude completely different vibes. Rosé, who’s a Saint Laurent ambassador, chose light graphic eye makeup, a large floral choker, and dangly earrings to go with her look, while Zendaya opted for minimal jewelry and smoky dark eyes. See how…

September 15, 2021 at 09:05PM This season, we’re seeing the continued appreciation of the knee high boot.

September 15, 2021 at 06:30PM Image Source: Courtesy of Cartier People have been proposing with engagement rings since the early 20th century, with the popularity of De Beers, the infamous British company who introduced the slogan “a diamond is forever” in 1947. But did you know that the engagement ring got its meaning way back in 850? According to the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), Pope Nicholas I declared that the engagement ring was a symbol of a man’s intent to marry. Back then women sported rings in gold, ivory, and copper to affirm their mutual love. Since then, engagement rings and proposals have been synonymous for future spouses. According to De Beers, 72 percent of spouses surveyed were proposed to with a ring in 2019. But with the average price of a diamond ring ($6,000) and the freedom to deter from genders,…
