Indeed, the model turned knitwear model has piqued interest by stepping out wearing what is reportedly a wedding ring on her left hand. What intrigued me, however,
Wicker bags: They’re not just a summer fling. As the warm-weather season comes to a close, you’d normally start seeing fewer woven bags and more suede ones, but not this year.

August is a tricky time to shop for clothes because I feel pulled in two vastly different directions. On one hand, I need to dress for scorching temperatures, which will only increase here in Los Angeles over the next eight weeks. If the bombardment of back-to-school ads is any indication, however, fall is coming quickly,
There’s something especially satisfying about finding pieces that look designer-level without carrying the designer price tag. As we move into that sweet spot between late summer and early fall, the fashion crowd is leaning into elevated staples that feel polished, versatile, and far more expensive than they actually are. Rich textures, beautiful tailoring, sophisticated color

This fall, I have five weddings on my calendar. Being a wedding guest isn’t anything new for me, though. I attended a few this past spring and last year, too. So, it’s safe to say I’ve become something of an expert when it comes to dressing for “I do” moments. One lesson I’ve learned recently?
By the time Friday rolls around in the middle of summer, getting dressed for the office becomes something of a balancing act.

Aqua, pool blue, azure—whatever you want to call it, shades of bright blue have had a strong grip on the coolest brands’ inventory this summer, and celebrities and fashion people are dutifully buying in.

Just like rehydrating your body with water, you need to rehydrate your skin with quality moisturizers. Most guys skip this step, and it’s why
It has been hot this summer. But you don’t need me to tell you that. I’m currently writing this story with two fans directed at me and my Shark Depuffi stationed on my desk for some cooling cryo breaks. And I’m not sure about you, but as soon as summer heatwaves begin, my beauty routine
