June 23, 2020 at 09:23PM Millie Bobby Brown, style icon in her own right, shared an Instagram shot of herself from what appears to be a visit to her hairstylist. All posed up in the barber chair, she asked her followers, “Straight or curly?” referring to her hair. But me – I’m the fashion editor over here – thinking to myself, “Cropped or oversize?,” and my focus is on her denim jacket. Millie’s is from River Island, originally retailing for less than $100, though it’s now sold out (don’t worry, we found a similar one after the jump). The tight fit and and structured, triangular collar with moto details scream ’80s to me, but wasn’t it just yesterday that Hailey Bieber was making the oversize fit look cool? Whereas I left all my micro-cropped outerwear in storage at my parents’ house, I’m now considering taking a pair of scissors to my favorite Levi’s jacket. Wouldn’t it look cool slashed and distressed – just underneath the bust – with a white ribbed tank top underneath? Of course, I could go all out like Millie did and throw on a pair of matching light-wash jeans to really make a statement. Just to further prove that Millie was fueled by the ’80s with this look, she accessorized with a scrunchie on her wrist.

How to Take an At-Home Mirror Selfie That Actually Looks Good
June 23, 2020 at 07:31PM Mirror selfies are so important these days that I actually consider how the clothes I’m buying will look on my Instagram feed.

Calling All Bucket Hat Babes – We Have Outfit Ideas For You
June 23, 2020 at 06:45PM I’m a big fan of the bucket hat. I throw mine on when I’m stepping out for a walk or embarking on a day trip to the beach, and there are even times I construct an entire outfit around it. The casual accessory, which throws it back to the ’90s, has been gaining popularity for the past two summers, striking the eye of high-end designer labels like Gucci and Prada, both brands stamping their signature logos on the trendy piece. For summer 2020, we’re seeing a lot of two and three piece sets: printed minidress + bucket hat splashed in a matching pattern or bikini + bucket hat + beach skirt, for those who prefer to go monochrome from head to toe. If you’re still big into tie-dye, there are plenty of bucket hats that fall into that camp, fulfilling all our hip, surfer dreams. Whether you’re the type of bucket hat wearer who prefers the look with a side of athleisure, and you’re officially replacing your baseball cap with the bucket shape for good, or you like to keep one strictly on hand for pool days only, we bet you’ll find a combination you’re ready to shop below.

I Tried Nordstrom Trunk Club, and It Made Me Feel Excited to Shop From Home Again
June 23, 2020 at 06:01PM As a shopping editor, I have always been curious to try Trunk Club, Nordstrom’s clothing subscription service. When I had the chance to test it out for myself, I immediately hopped on board. Because many stores are currently closed due to the pandemic, my excitement for shopping has dwindled. Being able to go to a store, feel fabrics, and try on pieces in a fitting room is unmatched by endlessly perusing websites. I was curious to see how a shopping service would compare. How It Works When I signed up for Trunk Club, the site prompted me to take an in-depth (yet fun!) quiz that asked about my sense of style, sizes, and budget. Once that was complete, I was matched with a stylist who took a day to pull pieces for me that she thought I’d like. Once my trunk was curated, I got to take a look at it online, get rid of pieces that weren’t my taste, and receive a few surprise replacements. My box was then shipped to me and came packed with clothes, shoes, and accessories, tailored to fit my preferences. I tried them on, kept what I loved, and sent back what I didn’t. I logged into my profile, let Trunk Club know what I was returning, then mailed it back to them with the preprinted shipping label they provide. They didn’t charge me until I let them know what I was keeping, which I really appreciated. The Verdict
Storm Reid Danced to This Chloe x Halle Bop Wearing a Cinderella-Blue Bikini
June 23, 2020 at 05:32PM In case you were wondering, Storm Reid is also a fan of the affordable swimwear line Frankies Bikinis. The 16-year-old actress was seen dancing up a storm (pun intended) with her best friend wearing a two-piece from the brand. She posted a video of herself and her BFF dancing to Halle x Chloe’s “Ungodly Hour.” (If you haven’t heard their latest album, what are you waiting for?) Storm showed off her dance moves while grooving to the song wearing Frankies Bikinis’s Zuma Bikini. The swimsuit came in a gorgeous light-blue color called Lagoon, and it reminded me of Disney’s Cinderella. Storm’s Zuma bikini top, which costs $95, came in a one-shoulder silhouette. She finished off her look with the matching Zuma bottom, which is priced at $90. Her best friend, on the other hand, opted for a stunning bright orange bikini. The duo matched with statement-making slides as well. Storm opted for a black pair of chain-link slides, while her friend wore a pair of pink ones that featured bows. Keep reading to watch the besties break it down. Then, shop Storm’s exact baby-blue bikini, as well as similar styles, if you’re in the market for a new swimsuit.

How 13-Year-Old Kheris Rogers Turned Being Bullied Into a Celeb-Loved Fashion Line
June 23, 2020 at 05:20PM At just 13, Kheris Rogers is already enjoying a thriving career. She’s an actor, influencer, business owner, and freshly signed artist to Columbia Records new girl group, Run The World. Spend a few minutes scrolling through Kheris’s feed and you will quickly see her self-assurance, individuality, and personality shining through. However, this is something that she has grown into throughout childhood. A few years ago, after being bullied at school for her complexion, Kheris’s family encouraged her to begin daily affirmations to build up her confidence. She found the practice incredibly effective and rewarding. There was something empowering about being able to transform her negative experience into something positive and self-affirming. She wanted to share her growing sense of strength with the world, and in doing so, help others who might be dealing with similar situations. At the age of 10, with the help of her big sister, Kheris founded “Flexin’ In My Complextion” to help other kids feel beautiful and love themselves. In just three years, her business has already won high-profile fans like Alicia Keys, Lupita Nyong’o, Drake, and Lena Waithe. We caught up with Kheris to see what this collection has meant to her, who she would love to collaborate with, and what her message is for kids who are enduring bullying.

June 23, 2020 at 04:56PM If you thought wearing matching outfits with your family wasn’t cool while growing up, then allow Kim Kardashian and Kanye West to change your mind. The power couple posed for a sweet picture with four of their children – North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm. For Father’s Day, the Kardashian-West fam dressed up in custom pieces by London-based Nigerian designer Mowalola Ogunlesi. While KimYe wore matching leather pieces from Ogunlesi’s namesake brand Mowalola, North got in on the fun with her own custom piece from the designer, too.

Kanye, on the other hand, opted for a shiny leather jacket, which was cropped, with matching leather pants and a yellow shirt underneath. Like Kim, he also wore a pair of tiny sunglasses. As for their kids, North stole the show in her custom cow-print look from the designer’s Spring 2020 collection and looked as cute as can be.

Raven-Symoné Got Married in a Utility Jumpsuit, So Wedding Dresses Are Officially Outdated
June 23, 2020 at 04:12PM Raven-Symoné married Miranda Maday on June 18, 2020 in an intimate backyard celebration in front of family and friends. I am sure their guests were just as blown away by the brides’ wedding outfit choice as I was: coordinating utility jumpsuits. Raven styled hers – which came with zippered pockets up and down the legs – with a pair of black Gucci ankle boots studded with sparkling crystals. She also wore statement drop rhinestone earrings that say “LOVED,” because who needs pearls? Miranda, on the other hand, worked an ivory Gucci jumpsuit with the brand’s signature stripes, pumps, and a white veil, and Raven’s ombré hairstyle added all the color the two needed to balance out the neutrals and really pack a punch. Even though Raven and Miranda’s looks definitely cost a pretty penny, we shopped out their bridal essentials after the jump. If nothing else, these clever looks are just making me reconsider a wedding dress altogether. Why not tie the knot in something comfortable and “wear everyday,” like the outfit your SO is used to seeing you in? I, for one, love how natural Raven and Miranda appear in all their pictures – and there are certainly few chances of wardrobe mishaps in structured pants like these.
