The Disappointment Over Olivia Rodrigo’s Merch Isn’t That Surprising

August 13, 2021 at 07:01PM Merch is an important part of any music fandom. This is particularly true in the COVID age of streaming and digital performances, where artists can’t connect with fans in physical spaces like they used to. Buying an artist’s merchandise is a way to directly support them while feeling a sort of kinship with other fans, and the collective experience of their music. It’s also important for the artist, who can make a substantial profit through merchandise sales. When pop music’s current it-girl Olivia Rodrigo debuted her merch online back in May, there was much anticipation from fans. For starters, Rodrigo’s website was carefully curated with a colour scheme and tone to match her newly released album, Sour. The online shop featured pieces inspired by Rodrigo’s signature Y2K style beloved by her largely Gen Z fan base, like bucket…

Texture Talk: The Best Combs and Brushes for Curly Hair

August 13, 2021 at 05:17PM If you have curly or coily hair, a thorough and effective detangling process is an essential part of maintaining hair health. To prevent tangles and single strand knots that can eventually lead to breakage, it’s important to detangle hair at every step of the washing and styling process — especially after taking hair out of a protective style. While it might be easy to remember to detangle hair, finding the right tools for your hair type, skill level and budget can be a task of its own. We’ve rounded up some of the best detangling brushes for curly hair, plus multipurpose combs and the perfect brush for slicking down edges, to make sure the only labour-intensive job you undertake is getting those tangles out of your hair.

Is Men’s Hosiery the Future of Gender-Fluid Fashion?

August 12, 2021 at 10:45PM Men in tights are having a moment. Don’t believe me? Take, for instance, fashion-forward celebrities like Harry Styles and Lil Nas X, who have worn pantyhose under dresses on red carpets, press events and magazine covers. For Prada’s Fall 2021 menswear collection, the combined genius of Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons resulted in models strutting in skin-tight leggings and onesies (see look 22).  The impact of men’s hosiery can also be seen on our screens: RuPaul’s Drag Race, The Witcher, and Marvel’s Avengers have all become phenomenons and hey, if I can see the outline of “America’s Ass” — the title (fittingly) given to Chris Evans’ Captain America — then it counts as tights! Besides caped crusaders and obvious Robin Hood references, pantyhose is gaining popularity as a unisex accessory. Enter the new line Threads for Men, a…

The Internet Thinks Kylie Jenner Is Pregnant Again

August 12, 2021 at 09:55PM Welcome to the Kardashian konspiracy theory korner of the internet. Today, we’ll be discussing the rumour currently circulating that Kylie Jenner is expecting baby number two. During her first pregnancy with daughter Stormi Webster, the beauty mogul completely removed herself from public view by halting sharing new photos on social media and mostly staying within her gated community. Three and a half years later, this has led some of Jenner’s fans to be extra suspicious of any out-of-the-ordinary activity from the celebrity influencer. Over the past few days, some hard-hitting investigative journalism (or, internet stalking) has led a growing amount of people to believe that Jenner just might be pregnant again. Below, we examine the evidence. There were no pictures of Kylie Jenner at her birthday party Historically speaking, Kar-Jenner parties are no joke. They typically involve elaborate…

Yes, Harry Styles Is Taken and It’s Time We Talk About It

August 11, 2021 at 10:41PM No one likes to hear that Harry Styles is in a relationship. I mean, since the 27-year-old star transcended his One Direction boy-band era, he has solidified his role as the internet’s forever man-crush — thanks to his famously gender-blurring style and award-winning music.

Kate Winslet Is Bringing Her Famously Self-Deprecating Humour to the Beauty Industry

August 11, 2021 at 05:30PM “I’ve been dealing with ‘Zoom face’ just as much as everyone else,” Kate Winslet tells me over — what else — a Zoom call. She’s referring to the recently coined term that describes the psychological toll of staring at our own faces during frequent video meetings over the past year, leading many to the discovery of facial imperfections that, prior to 2020, they were completely oblivious to. For some, it’s been a new forehead wrinkle or two that can’t be unseen. For Winslet, ‘Zoom face’ has led her to ponder the peculiarity of her eyebrows in relation to one another — at least according to her. “I’ve been noticing that one eyebrow is lower than the other, and if I’m really tired, it’s way lower,” she says. I reassure her that brows are meant to be cousins, not…

No, Jennifer Aniston and David Schwimmer Likely Aren’t Dating — But We Kinda Wish They Were

August 11, 2021 at 05:34PM On August 10, the internet went into a full-on frenzy when Closer magazine reported that former Friends co-stars Jennifer Aniston and David Schwimmer are dating. The tabloid reported that the two have been getting closer since the sitcom’s reunion back in May, adding that they have been bonding over intimate dinners, vineyard strolls, and deep conversations. Could it be?! Are David Schwimmer and Jennifer Aniston together in real life after all these years? Naturally, Friends fans were swept off their feet with this unexpected hit of nostalgia. After all, Ross (played by Schwimmer) and Rachel (played by Aniston) were the fan-favourite, on-again-off-again couple of the 10-season comedy series that aired in the ’90s and early 2000s. Fans fell for them even more after their appearances on the Friends reunion in May, when both actors revealed they had feelings…

Greta Thunberg Covers Vogue Scandinavia and Calls for Change in the Fashion Industry

August 11, 2021 at 04:09PM Climate activist Greta Thunberg is calling out the fashion industry. The 18-year-old Swedish environmentalist is the first to grace the cover of the newly launched Vogue Scandinavia. The August/September issue, which was released on August 8, shows Thunberg in a serene forest, sitting against a moss-covered tree while gently petting a horse. She is wearing a yellow floral dress and an oversized, upcycled trench made from discarded coats. Thunberg first became known in 2018 for her “School Strike for Climate” campaign that inspired students across the globe to protest climate change. Now, she’s recognized worldwide for her activism and personal commitment to environmental change. In her Vogue Scandinavia interview, Thunberg discussed her outlook on consuming fashion. For starters, she doesn’t, really. “The last time I bought something new was three years ago and it was second-hand. I just…
