This Bag Is The Definition Of Quiet Luxury (VOGUE UK)

huhn
Logos are everything for some fashion fans, but for every proud owner of Balenciaga’s Hourglass bag (a Kim Kardashian favourite), or Jacquemus’s Le Grand Bambino (Dua Lipa’s holiday staple), there’s someone who prefers the quiet luxury of The Row’s Half Moon style. Modelled on sleek silhouettes from the ’90s, the ergonomic curved design fits discreetly under the shoulder without so much as a bulge. Deceptively capacious – depending on the size of your iPhone – the suede-lined inner contrasts the Italian leather outer, which is embossed with the tiniest brand stamp you’re likely to ever witness. Blink and you’ll miss it – that’s the whole point. The mini model is emblematic of the stealth-wealth style Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen have cultivated since founding...

How Emily Ratajkowski, Hailey Bieber, and More Celebs Are Making Us Fall for Cargo Pants (VOGUE)

jij
One of the joys of street style watching is seeing how celebrities transform mundane items into memorable fashion moments. For example, cargo pants for women don’t exactly scream whimsical wardrobe must-have, but Hailey Bieber, Emily Ratajkowski, and Kim Kardashian all recently proved just how glamorous those utilitarian trousers can be. Ratajkowski and Kardashian have both worn coveted camouflage pairs by The Attico, and Rihanna has an equally as fabulous Celine pair. The queens of street style proved that the print can be worn so many different ways, from elevating a basic cropped T-shirt to partnering with statement fall coats. Photo: Getty Images Beyond the traditional camouflage-printed cargo, the heavily-pocketed pant has gotten major makeovers from several designers. Bottega Veneta recently debuted a pair on the runway with long and dramatic...

The Secrets Behind Rosalía’s Motomami World Tour Costumes (VOGUE)

jij
Some of the most enduring outfits in pop culture history have been worn not on the runway or the red carpet, but on stage. There are plenty of gems: Madonna’s Gaultier-designed “cone bra;” in 1990; the sparkly bodysuit Diana Ross wore as a thunderstorm erupted over Central Park in 1983; Elton John’s 1975 sequined baseball uniform. The Australian-born and NYFW-favorite designer Dion Lee has admired fashion moments of this ilk for a long time. He speaks lovingly of attending high-production arena tours, “where everything had a strong visual aesthetic,” growing up. Fittingly, late last year, the Spanish singer and trendsetter Rosalía approached Lee about designing every outfit for her Motomami world tour. Backup dancers included. Lee did not flinch or balk at the...

SEE RIGHT THROUGH YOU (SSENSE)

huh
Transparent Finds from Bode, Gucci, Miaou, and Mugler What does it mean, to be clear? Getting clarity, or making things clear often implies receiving more details, while clearing your head or going clear often means getting rid of said details. Clarity isn’t as clear as we think. But transparency slays, aesthetically (and ethically) speaking, and there’s more than enough to go around. From mesh, to PVC, to sheer tulle, here are some items to get you thinking clearly about what you want to wear. Featured In This Image: Gucci Sandals. Gucci Transparent Double G Sandals Forget glass slippers—it’s 2022 and we’re all about go-anywhere footwear. These buckled sandals are made from rubber so clear it passes as glass. . .

MALL RATS FOREVER: DIESEL FW2 (SSENSE)

gygi
Shop Til You Drop With the Latest Collection by Glenn Martens—Meet You at the Food Court Aughties mall starter pack: Hollister, Build-a-Bear, Spencer Gifts, Sam Goody, Victoria’s Secret, Panda Express. As a teenager, the mall represented independence, a space of possibility outside of the regularly scheduled programming of home and high school. A maze of yellow-lit hallways, these buildings were the perfect setting for the deep mundanity and drama of teendom. Endlessly scrolling on Instagram has replaced wandering around the fine establishments at the mall, and we’re reminiscing on days spent at the local shopping center doing nothing with friends. Planning and comparing outfits. People watching at the railings. Binging in the food court. Flirting with your crush and taking cheesy pictures....

NYLON FIT PICKS: KYLIE JENNER’S DENIM MINI SKIRT, RIHANNA & A$AP ROCKY’S BAGGY JEANS, & MORE CELEBRITY LOOKS (NYLON)

gygggg
Over the weekend, it seems that Kylie Jenner has become an even bigger fan of the micro-mini skirt trend, as she was seen out in London donning perhaps the tiniest skirt we’ve seen on the everything-mogul in a while. The 24-year-old was spotted heading to The Twenty Two in Mayfair on Saturday, Aug. 6, opting for a vintage leather motorcycle jacket from Mugler’s Spring 1990 collection sourced from The Reallist. She then wore her racer-inspired zip-up with an upcycled denim mini skirt from Devised Antithetical, which was crafted from two pairs of jeans and adorned with a low-rise V-cut at the waist. This comes as a surprise for the billionaire as the Double Denim mini skirt runs only at $65 — a budget-friendly option for those...

NAIL TRENDS TO STRUT, FLAUNT, AND PARADE THIS UPCOMING SEASON (V Magazine)

hh
If one thing is for certain among new wave fashion trends, it is the implausible obsession with a well-manicured, voguishly styled nail set. Never before had previous generations contributed so much thought to one's nail shape, length, and, most importantly, the design. Though with influencers, celebs, and renowned acquaintances strutting and parading their beloved nail designs, we have had no choice but to comply with these striking trends.  We can confidently attest that it is a Gen Z (or #GenV, if you will) necessity to consult your peers when considering your Pinterest nail design options. Have you decided on a color? No, I haven't. I probably never will. I am certain that I am not the only one who has felt...
