So Smart! This TikTok Demonstrates How to Transform Your Cardigan Into a Cropped Set
April 21, 2020 at 11:31PM @cjyanx my grandma is MVP ?? ##fyp ##boredathome ##diy ##thrifted ♬ Summertime – jmaxxxxx https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js Perhaps it’s the current collective shift toward cozy clothing, or perhaps it’s the enduring influence of Katie Holmes’s cashmere bra seen ’round the internet – or both – but matching cardigan sets appear to be a trend that’s here to stay. For those who might be feeling crafty at the moment, one TikTok user recently shared how she transformed a cardigan into a complete cropped set with just a few simple steps . . . and help from her grandmother. Here’s how the hack works: cut the cardigan across the midsection. Next, add more buttons to the upper half of the cardigan if you so please. Hem the raw edge on both the cardigan and the bottom half for a more polished look, then simply wear the bottom half as a bandeau crop top. Lastly, be sure to thank any grandparent, family member, or friend who may have assisted in the making of your cropped cardigan set.

The Dos and Don’ts of At-Home Brow Maintenance
April 21, 2020 at 10:41PM Going to a salon for your regular wax, threading, tinting — whatever your brow-shaping fix — session is a far-fetched dream during this isolation period. And with more weeks of being cooped up at home in sight, many of us may feel the need to resort to taking at-home brow maintenance into our own hands. The last thing we want is for you to come out of quarantine with botched, over-plucked brows, so we’ve tapped local eyebrow groomer and makeup expert Haley Bogaert, who’s also the founder of Toronto beauty salon studio Haley Bogaert Face, for her top need-to-knows before you go pruning any hairs with tweezers yourself. And note: If you’re already dealing with too-thin eyebrows, this current WFH reality is a prime opportunity to let your brows grow. Read Bogaert’s tips for acing your at-home brow maintenance below: Beauty pro Haley Bogaert Set a guide and don’t go overboard: “The most common mistake is when you take too much hair off on your own and try to create a shape. My recommendation is that when doing brows yourself, only lightly tweak as opposed to over grooming. I find that people tend to go too far into the front and tale of the brow, which are the two most important areas. I always suggest staying one finger away from all parts of the brow when tweezing. Whether you are tweezing the top, bottom, front or tail of the brow, always ensure that you are
Why a White Ribbed Tank Will Forever Feel Like the Sexiest “Stay Home” Outfit
April 21, 2020 at 09:21PM The moment I decided to fine tune my stay-home style, I realized what wardrobe essential I was missing: a white ribbed tank top. I immediately thought of Carrie Bradshaw typing away on her computer, writing her column in a thin tank and low-slung slip skirt. And how about Kate Hudson, making out with Matthew McConaughey in How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days? Andie rocked her tank with dark denim, which she wore undone on the front of Ben’s motorcycle. No look that I can think of feels quite as sexy or as classic. As far as tweaking my stay-home style goes, I wasn’t considering slipping on pumps and a glamorous dress; I just wanted to feel a little more put together in my clothes because I thought it might inspire me to work better. Plus, I always feel good about dressing up for my partner, and with both of us working from home during the lockdown, there’s no better time to feel romantic or try to spark joy if you can. “Sometimes it can be nice to press pause on my daily routine and get lost in a rabbit hole, building up my mood board with famous fashion photos.” To be clear, I think everyone should wear whatever the heck they want to wear right now. Whether that’s the same co-ord sweatsuit every damn day or the pajamas you spent the last two nights in is your own prerogative. Your own home is

Here’s What Drake, the Friends Cast, and Other Celebs Are Auctioning for COVID-19 Relief
April 21, 2020 at 08:30PM The All In Challenge was launched last week by Philadelphia 76ers owner Michael Rubin and has already roped in names like Leonardo DiCaprio, Gwyneth Paltrow, Drake, Ryan Reynolds and Justin Bieber. “Together what we want to do is literally build the largest movement with all the best entertainers, celebrities, athletes, business titans, coming together to make a real impact on this issue,” Rubin said on Twitter when launching the initiative. The goal is to encourage celebrities to offer one-of-a-kind experiences and items in an “auction” that people can enter to win, with a donation as low as $10. 100% of the funds raised will be donated to Meals on Wheels, No Kid Hungry and America’s Food Fund, which directly benefits World Central Kitchen and Feeding America. Some of the items up for auction include a hand-beaded Calvin Klein dress that Gywneth Paltrow wore to the 2000 Oscars. “I’m donating a dress I wore to the Oscars (and that holds great sentimental value!) which I will personally hand to you over a cup of tea or a glass of wine,” wrote Paltrow on Instagram. View this post on Instagram In an effort to focus on organizations providing food assistance, I have joined the #allinchallenge which is raising money for @mealsonwheelsamerica, @nokidhungry, @wckitchen, @feedingamerica and @americasfoodfund.

H&M is the Most Transparent Fashion Brand in the World, According to a New Report
April 21, 2020 at 08:00PM H&M has been named as the most transparent fashion brand, according to the new Fashion Revolution Transparency Index report. The report looked at 250 fashion and apparel brands across the world to determine how much they disclose on policies like animal welfare, biodiversity, living wages, gender equality, as well as its supply chains. The Swedish high street giant scored 73 per cent on the report, followed by Belgian-German high-street chain C&A on 70 per cent, Adidas and Reebok on 69 per cent, Espirit on 64 per cent, and Patagonia and Marks & Spencer on 60 per cent. According to WWD, the brands included in the index were chosen “based on the criteria that their annual turnover was more than $400 million across the sportswear, luxury and high street categories in Europe, North and South America, Asia and Africa.” Gucci was ranked as the most transparent luxury fashion brand, scoring 48 per cent on the report – an eight per cent increase from its 2019 score. Interestingly, the Alessandro Michele-helmed label was the only brand to ace the policy and commitments criteria.

Meghan Markle, Prince Harry, and Archie Video-Chatted the Queen for Her Birthday
April 21, 2020 at 07:31PM POOLGETTY IMAGES Meghan Markle and Prince Harry no longer have a royal Instagram to share a birthday tribute to the Queen, but they did go out of their way to wish Queen Elizabeth II a happy 94th today. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s spokesperson confirmed to Hello! and Entertainment Tonight that Meghan, Harry, and their nearly-one-year-old son Archie video-chatted the Queen today from Los Angeles to celebrate the big day. The Queen is based in Windsor Castle right now, where she is quarantining with her husband Prince Philip. That’s an eight-hour time difference to work with. ET notes that any further details about the call (and any others of the Queen has had with family members while in quarantine) will remain private, as the conversation was a family affair and not official business. This is far from Archie’s first video call. E! reported last month that Meghan and Harry’s son adores talking and playing with other kids on FaceTime. Archie has been “loving doing FaceTime playdates with other small children they have in their lives,” the outlet’s source said. Meghan, Harry, and Archie have been in quarantine in their new California home. Harry and Meghan have left to volunteer with Project Angel Food though. The Duke and Duchess have helped deliver meals to those in need in the city. They were photographed out on Friday volunteering, wearing masks, and holding hands. Meghan and Harry shared an intimate tribute to the Queen last year on their now inactive SussexRoyal Instagram. They wrote, “Happy Birthday Your Majesty,
Katie Jane Hughes Tells Us How to Get a Bronzed Beauty Look in 8 Steps
April 21, 2020 at 07:22PM Now that we’re spending the majority (/all) of our days inside, we’re looking for new ways to introduce a little sunshine into our lives that doesn’t involve being outside when we don’t need to be. Enter, makeup maestro Katie Jane Hughes. Earlier this week, we jumped on a Zoom tutorial with the celebrity makeup artist (her clients include Ashley Graham and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley) to celebrate the launch of Tower 28 Beauty’s Bronzino at Sephora Canada. During the 40 minute-long call, Hughes told us she’s been experimenting more than ever – “That’s honestly what’s been my sort of saving grace through all of this — playing so much more than I would if I was on set for a job” – and walked us through eight simple steps to creating a bronzed beauty look (using the new Tower 28 bronzer for contour, eyeshadow and lips) to bring a little vacay-inspired glow into our lives. Here’s how to recreate her bronzed look in your own bathroom: 1. Prep Use the skin prep routine you normally would. Hughes starts with a spray mist, and then pops an oil on her skin, focusing on the high points of the face. In anticipating the sheen in the bronzer, she keeps the oil to a minimum. 2. Bronze base “It’s really important for that bronzy look to look like it’s you, and not something you’ve put on your face,” she tells us. For that gorgeous natural glow, she says to build
