Fashion & Style

Finding a new handbag is like finding a new romantic partner. There are trusty handbags that will surely keep you satisfied, but there are also newcomers that bring an excitement you can’t ignore. While it feels like a lot of the major brands are recreating the same silhouettes over and over again, we’ve taken it

If you’ve indulged in a bit of online shopping over the past few years, you’ve surely come across the name Afterpay. The company, co-founded by Aussie Nick Molnar at only 24, has become one of the most popular payment-plan options, alongside competitors like Klarna and Affirm.

Cardigan, top, shorts, earrings, necklace, ring, and watch, Chanel. Tyler Joe Is the ocean bigger than Camila Mendes? Certainly—but also, in some respects, no.

She counts Rihanna, Jennifer Lopez, Selena Gomez, and Hailey Bieber as fans, which

Lili Reinhart is one of us. By that, I mean she also loves Target. “Target is great,” she tells me over the phone. “It’s like a winter wonderland during the holidays.” The actress made a career of being the relatable girl next door as Betty Cooper in Riverdale—which she swiftly dismantled in 2020’s Hustlers—but the

Some people have it all. And for those, holiday gifting is beyond our comprehension. While many of us are budgeting the season away or simply eschewing material gifts altogether, there are things out there that are so extravagant, you’re surprised they even exist. But isn’t that the fun of gifting in general, to indulge someone

“My perfect cozy afternoon?” Addison Rae muses over the phone with ELLE.com. “Probably hot chocolate with a lot of marshmallows and a really good rom-com.

When it comes to holiday gifting, Katie Sturino prefers to think outside the box, which really should come as no surprise to those familiar with her beauty brand, Megababe, which reimagines personal care products, and/or eponymous blog, known for changing perceptions around plus-size fashion. “I’ve always been a practical gift giver,” Sturino says. “I want

Is it just me, or does any desire to dress up go out the window once winter arrives? Sure, I love to wear a sweater dress and boots as much as the next trendsetter—but when it’s so cold that I feel like I’m living in the tundra, ditching pants seems like a bad idea. More

There was a time when even the most fashion-literate couldn’t bear to look at a pair of stiff, dull, everyday jeans.

Heavy is the head that wears the Swarovski-encrusted crown—but Leni Klum sounds anything but weighed down. The bubbly 17-year-old is recounting the details of her first-ever runway walk, at Dolce & Gabbana’s Alta Moda show—which took place in the hard-to-top setting that is Venice’s St. Mark’s Square.

Disclaimer: Even though I’ve spent the last decade writing about fashion, technology, and sustainability, it occurred to me earlier this year that I have zero firsthand experience designing clothes. Or making sustainable design decisions. Or utilizing technology for those purposes. To remedy this, I embarked on a journey to launch an experimental fashion brand utilizing

Who can remember what we were feeling heading into 2021? There was certainly an air of cautious optimism, with a sense that our priorities had shifted toward matters of heart and home.

When it comes to winter accessories, there are the obvious suspects—hats, gloves, scarves—but pity the person who doesn’t think outside of the box. With more skin covered than the warm months, you’re left with less square inches to adorn. What’s an accessory lover to do? For starters, do not sleep on your sunglasses. Shades ought

Ashish Chandra c/o Christy Dawn Style Points is a weekly column about how fashion intersects with the wider world.

Every wardrobe is made up of lots of little building blocks.
