Photography by Getty Images In the spirit of acceptance, here's a timeline of Styles's relationship with Olivia Wilde thus far. By Natalie Michie Date August 11, 2021 Facebook Twitter 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. So when the news broke earlier this year that he and filmmaker Olivia Wilde were together, the...

Photo by Imaxtree How many is too many? By Ivy Tang Date August 9, 2021 Facebook Twitter Fashion trends come and go, but there are some items that never seem to go out of style. Enter: patterned shirts. They have been around for decades and don’t seem like they’ll be going anywhere anytime soon. But we’re not talking about the tailored, long-sleeve dress shirts you might see in an office setting. These relaxed-fitting, often short-sleeve button-ups are a little bit Hawaiian, have major vintage cabana wear vibes, and are all-around...

By Melissa Perdigao Date August 7, 2021 Facebook Twitter Burberry Hero has arrived Unless you’ve been living under a (social media-free) rock, you’ve likely been acquainted with Burberry’s new men’s fragrance launch, Hero, which dropped on August 2.

By Annika Lautens Date August 6, 2021 Facebook Twitter It’s fair to say we could all use a bit of a confidence boost. As it turns out, 18 months of binge-drinking, -eating, -watching, and -sitting doesn’t do wonders for your self-esteem. Add being locked inside for much of that time with only your thoughts and a looming pandemic, and many of us are coping with mental and emotional scars. As...
