On September 15, Octavius La Rosa, better known as dot COMME, the Melbourne-based collector of all things Comme des Garçons (5,000 pieces—and counting!) will sell, in conjunction with Kerry Taylor Auctions, some 265 pieces of his collection. There will be iconic Comme (the lumps and bumps Body Meets Dress, Dress Meets Body collection of 1997, […]
My nails have been through it all. After countless gel manicures and one too many harsh removals, they were shells of their former selves; once long and strong, they were peeling, brittle and incapable of growing without breaking off. That’s why I was so happy when I saw the “bare nail aesthetic” trending on social […]
It feels like sacrilege to admit that I’m not the biggest fan of summer. As a Brit, sunshine season is fleeting but intense, and I know that we should make the most of it, but I have to come clean: I cannot stand the hot weather. Regardless, I do have a soft spot for solar […]
Gone are the days of the over-the-top influencer trip. Well, kind of. The influencer trip is not dead. This year, brands have shuttled creators to all corners of the world for short stints of content generation, from Mango in Greece and J. Crew tucked away in the Adirondacks, to Tresemmé in Morocco or Paris and […]
Last summer, Zoë Kravitz stepped out in NYC in gym shorts, a graphic tee, and kitten heels. At the time, this combo was just the unexpected pairing we needed. Just the other day, Kravitz was seen with Harry Styles wearing running shorts once again—this time with a tank and ballet flats. This sent me on […]
There’s a good chance you’ll find this satin pant trend in a chic person’s closet. Second, its luxurious silhouette offers countless ways to style it. Good dressers lean towards simple pairings: a classic white T-shirt, a pinstripe button-down, a polo, or an equally chic silk top. Though the styles differ, there seems to be agreement […]
When prepping for a trip, something we’ve all contended with is that we’re so preoccupied with figuring out what to pack for the trip that what to wear to the airport becomes an afterthought, even though that’s one of the most important outfits of the entire trip, in my opinion. It can be a challenge […]
While I’m not easily influenced by BeautyTok (very few viral products genuinely impress me), I do often refer to the app for quick, easy-to-follow tutorials. Read: how to use a high-frequency wand, secure a French comb, apply eyeliner, and so on. I’m a visual learner, so even though I speak to derms, hairstylists, and makeup […]
While we’re currently in the midst of another heatwave, I am under no illusion that it is here to stay, and autumn is slowly looming. We’re slowly starting to enter that transitional season, and deciding what to wear is about to get a whole lot harder. Finding outfits for a range of temperatures is key […]
When a print is really good (and really well implemented), it lifts the energy of a room. Take gingham as an example; everyone’s favorite picnic plaid. This checked motif is like the golden retriever of the print world—it’s energetic, cheery, and plays nicely with others. And though gingham is on regular rotation in summer wardrobes, […]
