Photography courtesy of Getty Images Sometimes being the main character is not a good look. By Natalie Michie Date July 22, 2022 Facebook Twitter Wedding season is upon us, and I fear Kendall Jenner must be stopped. The supermodel (and her family) have a tendency of turning heads with their over-the-top wedding guest fashion. Lest we forget influencer Lauren Perez’s nuptials last summer, where Jenner wore a cut-out dress to end all cut-out dresses. The stomach-baring Mônot gown went viral for being spotlight-stealing and “blatantly disrespectful.” This week, she made...

Photography courtesy of IMAXTREE These key pieces will keep you cool and collected during the hot summer months. By Ivy Tang Date July 21, 2022 Facebook Twitter When we were preparing for “hot girl summer,” record-breaking heatwaves were not exactly what we had in mind. With global climate change causing places like the UK to smash records, we know we’re in for a sweltering summer that no amount of SPF and sweat-proof makeup can save us from. Looking put together while keeping sweat and stress to a minimum is no...

Photography courtesy of Getty Images If anyone could do it... By Natalie Michie Date July 20, 2022 Facebook Twitter Robert Pattinson is not trying to be a fashion figure (emphasis on trying). And yet his outfit choices continue to make headlines, whether it’s the oversized suits he wore to promote The Batman or when he paired leather and red velvet to the 2005 premiere of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. The teen hearthrob turned aloof A-list actor doesn’t appear to care too much about what he wears, hence why his...

From Nope to Where the Crawdads Sing to The Gray Man to Bullet Train, summer cinema is in full swing! And while our attention is usually on the women walking the red carpet in designer gowns, it seems men are finally getting some recognition.  Brad Pitt’s laid-back approach to red-carpet dressing was a breath of fresh air, while Aaron Taylor-Johnson has been looking dapper in polos. And we’re excited to see...

Photography courtesy of Getty Images Did anyone ever think we’d get here? By Annika Lautens Date July 19, 2022 Facebook Twitter Crocs weren’t really on my radar until 2005. While I had obviously seen them around, I hadn’t quite grasped how popular they were until I descended the stairs one morning at a friend’s cottage and looked at the doorway. I saw not one, not two, but 12 pairs of the colourful clogs. Twelve! Everyone from the moms and dads to the tweens, teens and toddlers knew how to style...

Photography courtesy of Away Plus, our best packing tips to streamline your vacation. By Ivy Tang Date July 19, 2022 Facebook Twitter If you haven’t already heard, travelling through major airports has been a bit of a disaster this summer.

So whether you’re travelling for business or pleasure, packing just the essentials in your carry-on is key to a smooth trip. Plus, ditching checked bags and only bringing a carry-on will...

By Jillian Morgan Date July 18, 2022 Facebook Twitter Just before midnight on Saturday, between the Talk of the Town strip club, a Howard Johnson’s and a shuttered Cuban bar and grill, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck pulled up to the historic Little White Chapel to seal the deal. What then happened in Vegas definitely didn’t stay in Vegas — the singer shared all the details in her newsletter,...

Photography courtesy of Getty Images Say goodbye to the dreaded white cast. By Marriska Fernandes Date July 18, 2022 Facebook Twitter I’ve always been wary of sunscreen and avoided it for as long as I can remember. Outside of lathering on SPF at the beach, the reason I steered clear of these protective lotions on a day to day basis was because of the white cast they left on my dark skin. No matter the formula or how much I tried to blend it in, my complexion looked as if...

Destiny's Child, 1999. Photography courtesy of Getty Images In this essay, I will— By Natalie Michie Date July 15, 2022 Facebook Twitter You might call it basic, and you wouldn’t be the first. With its no-frills design and admittedly silly name, the humble tube top has been bad-mouthed for years. But I, for one, have had just about enough. To some, it’s just a stretchy piece of fabric. But to me, it’s a versatile summer staple. And it’s time for the tube top to get the respect it deserves! After...
