Is it just me, or are slouchy boots suddenly everywhere? Whether flat or heeled, mid-calf or knee-high, leather or denim, the options appear to be boundless—and omnipresent. The accessory’s sheer versatility renders it an infinitely wearable accessory for pretty much any occasion, complementing nearly every aesthetic, from indie sleaze to coastal grandmother. While scrunched silhouettes

There’s something about sneakers that seems to make everyone, and I mean everyone, stop in their tracks—literally. Over the past handful of years, specific styles like the Adidas Stan Smith, Nike AF1s, and New Balance’s 990s and 550s have taken to the streets in waves, where seemingly every sartorially savvy person donned a pair (or

Now that the holidays have passed and a new year is upon us, it’s time to turn our thoughts from showering friends and family with presents to practicing a little bit of self-care. We might even make it a resolution. While spa days, gym memberships, and at-home workout equipment are fine to invest in, you

Michelle Ochs would like to propose a vibe shift. “In 2023, can we please swap ‘French Girl Style’ for ‘American Woman Style?’” asks the New York designer, who counts Blake Lively and Lupita Nyong’o as fans. “Honestly, I think it’s funny that people think French Girl is a genre, but not American Woman. I want

As an editor who shops can’t-miss deals for a living, there are a handful of brands I consider worthy of a national holiday when they finally go on sale. Topping my list? Skims. Fortunately, today is one of those special days. Right now, the brand is slashing the price of its Cozy Collection in a

It can be hard to keep up with trends these days…and that’s coming from someone who’s paid to do it. Especially with endless fashion and styling videos going viral on TikTok and dominating your Explore page, how can one keep track of what’s actually hot and what’s decidedly not? Should I spend my next paycheck

For most of us, jewelry is the last thing we put on before heading out for the day. It makes sense; even if you’re sporting the lingerie-as-daywear trend, you still need to prioritize covering your body before you accent it with glimmering baubles. But, rather than letting your earrings, bracelets, necklaces, and rings be an

When Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old Kurdish woman, stepped off the train this past September for her vacation in Tehran, she wore a loose, black chiffon headscarf with five strands of hair showing. The hair was a statement—the five strands symbolizing bold defiance of the regime, en route to a removal of the headscarf altogether. She

Nearly a year ago, Zoreen Kabani was consumed by an overwhelming sense of ennui. She felt stagnant, and, quite frankly, bored at the job she’d had for the last nine years. So, the 35-year-old financial advisor switched to another company—and then promptly quit two weeks later. It wasn’t where she worked, she realized, but what

I first learned about fashion rental services through the classic yet divisive 2008 film, Sex and the City: The Movie. Jennifer Hudson’s Louise (from St. Louis) dropped the deets on her designer bag with the oft-quoted line, “It’s rented; Bag Borrow or Steal—it’s like Netflix for purses.” Nearly 15 years have passed since the movie

Style Points is a weekly column about how fashion intersects with the wider world. There’s a memorable photo of Dame Vivienne Westwood, her towering platform heels edging their way out of a gilded frame, a painting come to life. It was a promotional stunt for the designer’s Swatch collaboration in 1992—and it feels like the

After bidding the holiday season adieu, we’ve entered the Twilight Zone-like period between Christmas and New Year’s. A series of days where sweatpants are worn with pride, work inboxes are gleefully ignored, and leftovers are consumed like nothing else in your fridge exists. It’s also the period where glorious post-holiday sales return, the top-billing star

Ah, yes. The time has come to look forward to the new year. In fashion, that means taking a look at the best 2023 fashion trends to come. I know, I know; with the way the trend cycle is going, it’s getting tough to keep up. Not to worry—you’ve come to the right place. We

Courtesy + Design Leah Romero In terms of holiday gifts, food is always a good choice, right? Right. The best parts of the holidays take place around the table, anyway. That’s why we tapped Sophia Roe, a James Beard award-winning chef and Emmy-nominated host, to share some of her gifting tips. You might’ve seen some

If you had more shoes on your wishlist than goals for 2023, you’ve come to the right place. Shoes will make or break your outfit, your night, and your whole life if you let them. The runways—and the streets—of spring 2023 fashion month were stomped on by all kinds of footwear. And according to two

Welcome to Same Same, But Different. As Gen Z and millennial fashion editors, respectively, we know a thing or two about shopping—for all ages, and especially our demographics. As we find the best products for you, we can’t help but do a little shopping for ourselves and build our personal (age-appropriate) wish lists. And now,

I will forever love Sleeper for bringing “party pajamas” and “black tie pajamas” into the sleepwear conversation. Right now, you can save some serious cash on a selection of the brand’s sets during Saks Fifth Avenue’s designer sale. Beloved by celebrities, influencers, and editors (!), Sleeper sets took off in popularity during the pandemic, unsurprisingly,

Imagine you are hopped up on cough syrup awaiting the results of a Covid test. (It will be negative, but you don’t know that yet.) You are swaddled in a blur of plaid wool blankets; your throat is happily numb from a slather of Vicks VapoRub. Then your phone rings and it’s Chloë Sevigny. She

Sustainability is big news. In addition to grabbing headlines, it’s become a huge consideration in how people shop. A recent poll found that more than a third of millennial and Gen Z shoppers want brands to create products that are eco-friendly and ethical. When it comes to natural fabrics like bamboo, cotton and wool, it’s

Style Points is a weekly column about how fashion intersects with the wider world. “I had a friend who was going back to work, who’d had a baby and was let go during the pandemic. And she literally said to me, ‘Will you just send me five links and I’ll buy those things?’” That was

It’s almost a new year, which means it’s time to get rid of all the baggage of 2022 and enter 2023 with, well, fresh baggage—handbags, that is. You can’t always get a new start emotionally, but at least you can have a fun new accessory to help you fulfill your resolutions (I stand by cute

I don’t recall when they first appeared, only that one day they didn’t seem to exist and the next they were everywhere. I spotted them—glittering, candy-colored pendants—first adorning the necks of my younger cousins, who were in high school at the time. They tapped their Elisa necklaces with absent fingertips, and when they laughed, their

Fashion has officially become infatuated with the idea of archives. It’s wildly ubiquitous; now as common as a pair of jeans or an old leather belt stashed in the back of your closet. From people on TikTok marveling over their personal collections and labeling items down to the minute details of exact season and runway

Despite waxing nostalgic about the glory days of Laguna Beach on her new podcast Back to the Beach, Kristin Cavallari has come a long way from Southern California. Now based in Nashville, she’s the founder and CEO of lifestyle brand Uncommon James—which spans jewelry, home goods, and clean skincare—and is currently wrapping up her third
