Rihanna’s Love of Fur Hats Continues, Even Amid Summer (W Magazine)

It usually isn’t too hard to keep up with the many trends Rihanna sets, but following suit this time around will take some bravery (and sweat): Lately, she’s been wearing pink fuzzy hats amid the summer heat. The singer stepped out in her second in a little over a month while in New York City on Monday, again calling to mind the larger-than-life chapeau that Pamela Anderson memorably wore to the 1999 VMAs. Marking another moment for the big pants, little tops trend, she paired her matching pin camisole with a baggy pair of camouflage cargos. Last but not least, she threw in another accessory not typically seen on a summer night: checkered sunglasses. Out-there as it may seem, the statement item is actually relatively low-key compared...

Fall’s Most Striking Accessories are Oversized, Textured, and (Strangest of All) Perfectly Practical (VOGUE)

Between Louis Vuitton’s whimsical collaboration with Fornasetti to Francesco Risso’s marvelously large handbags from Marni, this season’s slew of accessories are interesting and enticing; some of them are even surprisingly convenient.

While Prada’s leather driving gloves come complete with a petite zip pouch if you wish to keep something small on hand (literally). And Miu Miu’s crocheted knit headscarves and masks will add a joyful pop of color to your neutral fall wardrobe, all the while keeping you warm and toasty.

Bella Hadid Just Found Your New Favorite Depop Store (VOGUE)

Bella Hadid’s appreciation for vintage is well documented. The star cycles through old school Jean Paul Gaultier and aughts-era Tom Ford for Gucci regularly, but she doesn’t limit herself to ultra-luxury designers. Like every other twenty-something, Hadid sources secondhand pieces from her favorite labels online, hitting up Depop for archival JPG outerwear like the puffer she showed off on Instagram back in December and frequenting sellers like  Dutch Fonzie. This week Hadid showed off her latest acquisition from the platform: a two-piece set from Susamusa, created from deadstock fabric. Spotted running errands in Tribeca on Sunday, Hadid wore the sheerest of shirts and a matching pencil skirt with a lettuce trim hem.

At the Olympics, Pink Masks Divided the Men’s Fencing Team (VOGUE)

When the four U.S. men’s fencing team members arrived in Tokyo on Friday for the Olympics, the casual observer may have believed that Jake Hoyle, Curtis McDowald, Yeisser Ramirez, and Alan Hadzic were united and ready for their opening match against Japan (which they later lost). Their uniforms, however, told a different story: During the introductions, three of the fencers wore light pink masks, while one wore black. And their lack of uniformity comes with a powerful explanation as to why. Hoyle, McDowald, and Ramirez all showed up to the Olympics on Friday in pink masks as a planned protest against Hadzic, who is currently accused of and under investigation for sexual assault. The trio reportedly wore pink as a statement to...

This didn’t go over well and led to a spat wherein Singer offered to plug McSweeney’s line. The comment came across as a dig towards McSweeney’s clothing line and...
