Corset Tops Are Set to Be the Silhouette of Summer

We could all use a little structure in our lives right now. Enter corset tops. The binding garments proved popular on the Spring 2020 runways and they’re surprisingly easy to pull off.

Dion Lee was the most corset-minded sending several interpretations down the catwalk. But he wasn’t the only one. They also showed up over at Chloe, Burberry, Vera Wang, Mugler and more. Sometimes they were shown solo, while other times modesty prevailed and they were layered over other pieces of clothing.

If you’re worried about showing too much skin IRL, try wearing yours over a tee or tank top. Prefer showing off those peekaboo panels or cropped hems? Don’t be shy about rocking them on their own. Either way, the best way to style them is with jeans along with barely-there sandals. (Longer shorts and skirts are also permitted.)

Check out the slideshow below to see the trendiest corset tops to add to your closet. You can wear them around the house on days you feel like dressing up. Then flaunt them around town as soon as you’re able to head outside.

Alicia Vikander, Emma Stone and Léa Seydoux Appear in Louis Vuitton’s ‘New Classics’ Campaign

Nicolas Ghesquière showcases his Louis Vuitton brand ambassadors at every given opportunity. So it should come as no surprise to see Alicia Vikander, Emma Stone along with Léa Seydoux joining forces once again in Vuitton’s latest campaign. The three actresses return for the “New Classics” handbag campaign captured by Craig McDean before makeshift Paris backdrops while sporting variations of the brand’s Capucines, Dauphine and Twist handbags.

But the campaign failed to captivate our forum members. “Who knew that a day would come when blue chip campaigns would start looking like movie promo shots?” complained Urban Stylin.

“This looks off. Even the background looks almost like a set,” proclaimed TaylorBinque.

“This is honestly appalling. I don’t care about Emma or Alicia, but poor Léa,” Nomar chimed in.

Benn98 wasn’t impressed, either. “McDean’s work for this brand is so unimaginative and cheap. The money must be good. Everything looks fake, even Emma’s porcelain skin and scarlet hair…”

“Why bother giving Emma Stone a multimillion dollar contract if you’re going to make her into a CGI character?” asked Melancholybaby.

“Despite the atrocious photography, the fake-looking Paris backdrops and the very little tolerance I have for Vuitton campaigns under Ghesquière — I always enjoying seeing Léa Seydoux as the face of the brand,” said vogue28.

12 Perfect Pedicure Nail Polish Shades to Flaunt Inside and Outside


We’ve already pointed out why now’s the prime time to show your feet a little TLC. Now that you’ve gotten rid of all that dry, flaky skin, it’s time to take things up a notch. Even though we’re stuck indoors, there’s nothing like an at-home pedicure to brighten our mood. Especially when it includes one of these dazzling pedicure nail polish shades.

If you’re into matching your fingers to your toes, go right ahead and use your go-to manicure shade. But if you’re into mismatching or you’ve already used up your mani stash, there are lots of other outstanding colors to choose from. From a statement-making teal shade to pastel hues like light yellow, jade green and baby blue, you may want to consider switching things up every single day.

And while all of these are spring-appropriate, they’ll also work come summer. So everyone will be able to appreciate your pretty pedicure, even six feet away.

These Tropical Printed Pieces Will Make You Feel Like You’re on Vacation

It’s pretty much official: summer vacation is canceled for 2020. Even once we’re able to go out again, we’ll still need to practice social distancing. So hopping on a plane to fly to some island destination isn’t really an option. But you can still tap into vacay vibes thanks to the flurry of tropical printed pieces hitting the market right now.

We can thank Versace for the sudden influx of tropical printed picks popping up online at our favorite shops. The fashion house recently brought back its iconic jungle print with a little help from Jennifer Lopez. Dolce & Gabbana also took us to the tropics with its extensive Spring 2020 offering.

And now the trend has trickled down to the masses with shops like Zara, Mango and H&M offering everything from palm prints to island florals. And don’t be afraid to double up. Some stores are also pushing tropical sets from an oversized shirt with flowy pants to an off-the-shoulder statement top teamed with a matching miniskirt.

Make your staycation more legit by scoring one (or all) of these tropical printed pieces.

Vogue Japan Opts for Another Multi-Model Cover for June 2020

We have always been down for a good ol’ Vogue Japan x Luigi & Iango moment. But the duo’s multi-girl covers for the Japanese fashion bible often fall flat. This year’s March cover was disappointing, last year’s September offering wasn’t much better and not even the likes of Irina Shayk and Imaan Hammam could have saved March 2019. The Japanese title’s latest sees an influx of fresh-faced beauties for June 2020 with models Abby Champion, Bente Oort, Mika Schneider, Shanelle Nyasiase and Hannah Motler each wearing looks from Prada’s Spring 2020 collection (courtesy of Anna Dello Russo) before Luigi & Iango’s lens.

Once again, members of our forums weren’t jumping for joy. “I cannot tell the difference between all the other group cover shots,” said dontbeadrag the moment the cover dropped.

“This cover is bland: just like the styling and the girls. Nothing stands out, it’s not bad, it’s just flat, boring and nothing is impressive. NEXT!” declared Bertrando3.

“I want to like this, but I just can’t. Love the models and the styling, but the posing and composition has it feeling flat,” echoed kenndale.

[ Not a tFS forum member yet? Click here to join! ]

Forum member vogue28 wasn’t a fan: “Everything from the random model selection to the colors, I find weak and disappointing. Perhaps I have come to expect a great deal from Luigi & Iango, but this simply doesn’t cut it for me and can safely say I haven’t liked a single Vogue Japan x Luigi & Iango cover throughout 2020 so far!”

“I’m also always here for Luigi & Iango in Vogue Japan! Is it their best cover? No. But it still looks fresh and it’s a nice selection of new models,” appreciated aracic.

“Beautiful cover. For me Vogue Japan is one of the best editions at the moment,” avonlea002 disagreed.

20 Mother’s Day Gifts She’s Guaranteed to Love

While traditional Mother’s Day gifts are well and good, this year it’s time to think outside the box of chocolates. We’ve got nothing against candy, flowers or a simple card, but why not curate your gift to your mom’s personality? Got a mom who’s trendy AF? Hook her up with a stylish hat. Does she love perfume? Give her a fresh scent to rock straight through summer. If she’s a lipstick lover, a ruby red lipstick with a customizable case will make her Mother’s Day.

With Mother’s Day less than two weeks away (May 10), it’s time to get cracking. For more unconventional presents for every kind of mom, check out the slideshow above.

Freja Beha Erichsen and David Sims Team Up for Prada’s Pre-Fall 2020 Campaign

We were definitely disappointed when Miuccia Prada ditched Steven Meisel as Prada’s campaign photographer back in 2017. Since then, we’ve endured several underwhelming Willy Vanderperre campaigns, witnessed a Drew Vickers and Keizo Kitajima pairing and tolerated Jamie Hawkesworth’s Spring 2020 offering. Following the news that Raf Simons is the brand’s new co-creative director, change is once again in the air over at Prada. Shot by David Sims and styled by Olivier Rizzo, the Pre-Fall 2020 campaign features Freja Beha Erichsen showcasing the bold and print-heavy collection.

The campaign was an absolute hit on our forums. “Yes! Thank you! Finally! This works from the beginning to the end because the campaign — and the collection — is quintessential Prada. Makes me want to spend money on the brand again,” declared RaisinBoy.

“This is really great. Reminds of those early 2000s Balenciaga ads,” Marc10 pointed out.

“I find the evolution of Sims truly remarkable! Because the campaign is so confident it makes me focus all the more on the clothes. Everything looks stunning,” applauded Benn98.

[ Not a tFS forum member yet? Click here to join! ]

“Prada’s advertising looks great without Willy. I hope Miuccia won’t allow Raf to bring him back!” added GivenchyHomme.

“Love this, Freja’s the ultimate Prada model,” proclaimed Urban Stylin.

Nomar couldn’t agree more: “Freja delivers again!”

“David Sims did wonders with the photography, love the black and white mixed with color and Freja’s modeling here is brilliant,” voiced vogue28.

Street Style Guidance on How to Work Your New Loungewear Staples Into the Rest of Your Wardrobe

Images: Imaxtree

After weeks of doing everything at home, we’ve all gotten used to wearing relaxed separates around the house. Whether we’re on Zoom keeping in touch with co-workers or working out in our home “gyms,” the goal is to stay comfy 24/7. So we indulged in our online shopping fetish by investing in new loungewear staples to make us feel cozy and secure during this health crisis.

But at some point, we’ll need to figure out how to go out again. Rather than retiring your new loungewear collection or restricting it to after hours, why not work those pieces into your warm weather wardrobe? It’s actually easier than you think.

Our favorite street style stars have perfected the art of dressing up everything from sweatpants to leggings to sweatshirts to track pants. And if it’s good enough for them… Well, you get the idea. Whether it’s spicing up a pair of Adidas training pants with a statement-making top or mixing and matching your favorite sets of PJs, there are infinite ways to wear loungewear without looking like you’ve given up.

Check out the slideshow above to see how street stylists style their loungewear staples.

How to Master an At-Home Bang Trim

how to cut bangs

Image: Imaxtree

Since most of us can’t head to the salon right now to get a haircut or even a quick trim, we’re having to become a little resourceful a la Bella Hadid. Cutting your bangs should be left to the pros, but since we’re all living this new normal, an at-home trim is perfectly acceptable, totally doable and surprisingly simple — as long as you have the right tools and know how to do it properly.

The first rule of a DIY bang trim is don’t use the scissors you keep in your junk drawer. Butterfly Studio Salon stylist Vanessa Fernandez advises looking for an inexpensive set of shears you can use at home. “Regular scissors are too dull and will cause hair to become damaged or split.” You’ll also need a ponytail holder or some clips and a comb that has wide to fine teeth to help guide you as you trim. Once you’ve got what you need, simply follow the steps below on how to cut bangs at home. And trust us, it’s way easier than it sounds.

  1. Make sure hair is totally dry and styled as you normally would to avoid any mistakes that can occur with wet hair. “If you try cutting when hair is wet, you may end up cutting too much or too short since hair is longer when wet and shorter when it’s dry,” says Fernandez.
  2. Separate bangs from the rest of your hair and gather your hair into a bun so that it doesn’t get in the way or accidentally snipped.
  3. Comb bang area forward or to the side, depending on the way you usually wear them. “Be careful with your elevation — if you bring the bangs out, you will graduate the bangs resulting in a layered look. If you bring bangs down closer to the forehead, making them flat, the look will be more blunt,” advises Fernandez.
  4. Use your index and middle fingers to separate subsections within the bang area and pull the sections down one by one as you begin to slowly snip small lengths of hair, keeping the shears at an angle.

Depending on the results you want — straight, blunt bangs or shorter/longer ones — pay attention to the way you hold down hair. Fernandez notes: “If you want a blunt look, go straight across, starting from the middle outward (on each side). If you want a more piecey look, hold scissors more vertically and cut using sharper movements going across from one side to the other, but keeping movements up and down so that the pointy part of the scissors is always pointing up.”

Now that’s pretty simple, no?

Jennifer Lawrence Stars in Christian Dior’s Vintage-Inspired Pre-Fall 2020 Campaign

Since taking over the helm of Christian Dior back in 2016, Maria Grazia Chiuri hasn’t exactly received a great deal of praise when it comes to the brand’s advertising campaigns (or collections for that matter). It’s always more of the same old, same old — from repetitive model choices to the use of the same photographer season after season. But with the unveiling of the French fashion house’s latest campaign things may finally be looking up. Jennifer Lawrence (obviously) poses before the lens of Brigitte Niedermair for Dior’s latest shot up against a gray backdrop allowing the Pre-Fall 2020 collection to do all the talking.

Christian Dior Pre-Fall 2020 : Jennifer Lawrence by Brigitte Niedermair

Members of our forums were pleasantly surprised. “Although it’s exactly the same boring campaign as every other campaign under MGC, I actually like this set of pictures. There’s a very vintage feel to JLaw’s beauty here, especially in the first portrait — I really like that image. It’s nothing to write home about, but it’s certainly a nice departure from incredibly dull Ruth Bell and Selena Forrest,” aracic appreciated.

“Happy for Brigitte, she brought the best out of a woman who I’m bored to death with. There’s something almost fetishistic about this campaign and I cannot help but gravitate toward it. Is goody two-shoes Miss Dior taking a walk on the wild side? One can hope,” noted YohjiAddict.

“I can’t believe I’m saying this about a Jennifer Lawrence for Dior campaign, but these images are stunning,” confessed dodencebt.

In complete agreement was vogue28: “These images are indeed stunning and perhaps I would’ve fawned over them even more had we not already seen this concept several times previously from MGC’s Christian Dior. It’s the all black that is doing it for me here, feels like a palate cleanser from previous campaigns.”

“We can officially now say she’s a better model than Ruth Bell and Selena Forrest at least,” proclaimed bluebanter.

Beauty DIY: 9 Amazing Coconut Oil Hair Masks to Whip Up Tonight

The most effective hair masks lining beauty aisles tend to be expensive, but one thing manufacturers don’t want you to know is that they’re easy to whip up at home. Save cash while keeping chemicals out of your hair by turning to your kitchen the next time your hair needs some TLC. One of your best DIY bets? A coconut oil hair mask.

What are the benefits of coconut oil hair masks?

Coconut oil hair masks have risen in popularity given their ability to penetrate the hair shaft (thanks to lauric acid) to moisturize and repair from within. They’ll also leave your strands shiny while repairing damage from all those aggressors like salt and chlorine. Plus, coconut oil is really good for your tresses due to antioxidants and its antibacterial/antifungal nature.

And you can actually do more than just mask with the versatile oil. Use it as a pre-shampoo treatment (leave on for 15 to 30 minutes before you shower) if your locks are super parched, to top off your conditioner to bolster the product’s power, as a frizz tamer or as an all-natural detangler.

How do you apply coconut oil to your hair?

If you’re sticking with straight coconut oil, you should slather it on dry hair at night, warming it up first for maximum benefits. Apply more to your ends while going lighter on your roots. If you have an oily scalp, avoid adding the oil to the area — you don’t want to cause breakouts. Comb it through your strands to make sure it gets distributed evenly. Wrap up your hair in a fabric shower cap to prevent stains on your pillowcase. In the morning, wash the oil out. If your hair is on the finer side, you may want to go longer between masking sessions.

If you’re combining coconut oil with other good-for-your-locks ingredients for a DIY hair mask, simply follow the recipe. Some hair masks involve mixing the components together and applying for a short span, while others are a bit more involved. (You may have to heat the ingredients or combine them in a blender.)

Here’s a look at nine of the best DIY coconut oil hair masks to give your hair a much-needed seasonal refreshing.

11 Going Out Tops for When We Can Go Out Again

Call us optimists. But we’re starting to see a light at the end of the (still very long) tunnel. While lockdowns are still in effect in most places, most of us want, nay need, to start thinking ahead. Which is why we’re shifting our focus from fashions we can wear at home to going out tops that deserve to be shown off.

With online shopping a common way to pass the time, stock is beginning to run low. So we want to stock up on going out tops while the getting is good. What makes a great going out top? It should definitely make a statement. Usually, that statement comes from an OTT accent, like an oversized organza flower or metal hardware. Regarding silhouettes, you can never go wrong with a halterneck or one-shoulder top.

On the styling front, follow Carrie Bradshaw’s lead and wear them with jeans and heels. And we recommend buying a few options so you can switch things up for date night and girls’ night out.

See the slideshow above for the most stylish going out tops to add to your closet.

Vogue Addresses the Global Pandemic With a Beautiful and Symbolic Irving Penn Cover

Anna Wintour has been at the forefront of helping the fashion industry get through the ongoing global pandemic. She’s created the A Common Thread initiative along with the CFDA and joined forces with fashion figureheads to produce Vogue Global Conversations via Zoom. Now Wintour combines Vogue‘s June and July issues to address the current health crisis. Instead of featuring Florence Pugh, Billie Eilish, Gal Gadot or even a handful of models, the mag opts for a beautiful and symbolic alternative. Unable to produce photoshoots as a result of social distancing, Vogue picked an unpublished Irving Penn portrait of a rose from 1970 for the front cover of its special double issue.

US Vogue June/July 2020 by Irving Penn

IMAGE: VOGUE.COM

The cover struck a chord with our forum members. “I think it’s beautiful, very appropriate given the current circumstances. The use of an unpublished Irving Penn image has Anna Wintour’s name written all over it. A sense of certainty in a world of uncertainty, which I can appreciate,” voiced vogue28.

“It’s a beautiful image and a beautiful cover,” echoed mepps.

[ Not a tFS forum member yet? Click here to join! ]

“I like the cover, simple but beautiful. Considering how bad the situation is in the U.S. — specifically New York City — I find it very appropriate,” commended jorgepalomo.

Sharing the same sentiment was Urban Stylin: “It is a beautiful cover and makes sense in these times. It doesn’t feel as contrived as some and we should be glad that it’s not some celebrity selfie.”

“It could have been better, but I like it. It’s definitely more creative than Emanuele Farneti’s lazy plain white cover. At least this involved digging through the archives and deciding which archival photo was best suited for the special issue. This is definitely a must-have issue!” declared MON.

LastNight felt the same way. “Oh it’s gorgeous! I love the idea and how great to have a Penn photograph on the cover.”

All the May 2020 Magazine Covers We Loved and Hated

Most glossy magazines plan issues in advance so it’s not surprising that many of the covers for May 2020 seem tone-deaf. Just like the rest of us, most models, photographers, designers and stylists are practicing social distancing. That means that fancy photoshoots aren’t really an option.

When it comes to this month, there were some standout May 2020 cover stars, including Greta Thunberg and Helen Mirren (although both fell victim to awful styling). There was a very poignant cover addressing the ongoing pandemic. Then there were the beautiful model shots featuring no-makeup makeup looks. Take a fresh-faced Claudia Schiffer decked out in Azzedine Alaïa, for example.

Check out the slideshow above for a look at the best and worst May 2020 covers.

Get Ready to Show a Little Skin Because Cut-Outs Are About to Be Everywhere and on Everything

We know that cut-outs are nothing new. They’ve been popping up on the runways for a few seasons now. But at the Spring 2020 shows, they seemed more omnipresent than ever. Not that we’re complaining.

Gucci, Off-White, Paco Rabanne, Versace, Stella McCartney and more embraced the ongoing trend. From front-and-center circles to see-through petals to teardrop shapes, cut-outs have really blossomed. And their position is ever-evolving. You’ll see patches of skin in the front, on the back, on shoulders, on the sides and even on waistbands. (Better brush up on your tucking skills.) And the accents know no limits. We’re spotting them on everything from tops to bottoms to shoes — and even on accessories.

When it comes to styling, stick with only one cut-out piece. Combining too many openings may give the impression you’re simply too cheap to buy clothes without “holes.”

Before you start stressing about flaunting too much skin, take a deep breath. Most of the cut-outs are pretty strategically placed so you won’t feel like you’re flashing anyone. Our only piece of advice? Make sure to apply a layer of sunscreen to any and all exposed areas.

See the slideshow above for the coolest pieces boasting cut-outs in literally all shapes and sizes.

Joey Yung Poses in Gucci on Vogue Hong Kong’s Sleek and Minimal April 2020 Covers

Vogue Hong Kong has been very hit or miss on our forums ever since its inaugural issue featuring a trio of Gigi Hadid and Fei Fei Sun covers. Covers starring Hailey Bieber and Bella Hadid have sufficed over recent months, but the title’s first anniversary issue with Naomi Campbell failed to impress last month. Now Vogue Hong Kong welcomes some homegrown talent to its April 2020 installment (something magazines don’t often do). Photographed by forum favorite Luigi & Iango, singer and actress Joey Yung appears on a set of sleek and minimal covers sporting a look from Gucci’s Spring 2020 collection for the mag’s latest.

The covers divided our forum members. “People are probably going to hate on these covers because it’s Vogue Hong Kong, but I love the first one. If it was British Vogue and Dua Lipa everyone would swoon,” declared A.D.C. the moment the covers struck.

“I actually like it. Simple and clean,” said lightblue.

[ Not a tFS forum member yet? Click here to join! ]

“We have Luigi & Iango, zero signs of weird post-production, minimal art direction and a sense of glamour — so I cannot complain, really,” voiced vogue28.

“This would have been nice, but her expression didn’t sell it,” Urban Stylin pointed out.

MON wasn’t impressed by the outcome, either. “Yikes. The styling is terrible and tacky. The art direction leaves much to be desired. Too bare for my liking. Vogue Hong Kong really needs to step up. They are on their way to replace the former Vogue Taiwan.”

Benn98 shared the same sentiment: “Just goes to show what an important role creative direction and styling play! Both covers look like they could work for ELLE Taiwan, very subpar. And I find the styling rather cheap. Another dud for this pointless edition.”

“Where’s the Luigi & Iango magic? They did her so dirty,” MDNA called out.

Tank Tops Are to Spring and Summer What Turtlenecks Are to Fall and Winter

All too often, we’re (overly) obsessed with trends. What’s hot and what’s not is what matters. But there are certain staples every wardrobe should have in its repertoire. We’re talking turtlenecks, tailored blazers, jeans and, the most underrated of them all, tank tops.

While you may have a slinky camisole or two, it’s no replacement for a classic tank top. When we say classic, we mean no OTT frills allowed. Sure, there’s a little ruffle trim here, a geometric neckline there, but for the most part these tanks are not designed to be the focal point of any outfit. (Though feel free to jazz them up with a bow or brooch or some other eye-catching accent.) And a tank top is a great warmer-weather layering device.

Another benefit? Tank tops are relatively affordable. We even found a couple of options for under $10.

Check out the slideshow above to stock your closet with tank tops now that you can wear everywhere later.

Jihyo Serves Face on Allure’s May 2020 Cover

We’re huge advocates for diversity, but it’s unfortunately a rare occasion to see an Asian face on the cover of a mainstream American glossy. But Michelle Lee has already demonstrated her ability to deliver on the diversity front at Allure. (Remember those triumphant June 2018 covers featuring a trio of Asian beauties?) For May 2020, Jihyo (of the South Korean girl group Twice) appears on Allure‘s latest photographed by Ahn Jooyoung for the magazine’s “Best of Global Beauty” issue.

The cover immediately caught the attention of our forum members. “Interesting… I wonder how many people in the U.S. know her?” asked phungnam96.

“Michelle’s track record when it comes to Asian beauty is abysmal and I’m all for fresh faces, but this is not the solution. Surely there are Asian women in America who would have been better choices?” wondered Benn98.

“Lucy Liu. A gorgeous household name print is being so ignorant about,” replied Srdjan.

“Because we should continue pushing the same and only recognizable Asian actress of the last 20 years instead of introducing people to some new ones,” A.D.C. fired back.

Urban Stylin was impressed: “I actually love the cover, very fresh and clean. South Korean-inspired skin care regimens and beauty have become very popular in the West so the cover subject makes sense.”

“Looks more like a jewelry ad than a magazine cover, but I welcome the sight of any American magazine putting an Asian face on the front of an issue,” applauded tigerrouge.

10 Shampoos to Make Your Hair Color Last Longer

Nothing’s worse than plunking down your hard-earned money on some gorgeous balayage or babylights only to have your hair color fade or turn brassy a mere week later. That’s why you need a shampoo formulated to protect your hair color.

How can I make my hair color last longer?

While picking up the best shampoo for colored hair is vital, there are other steps you can take to prevent color from fading away. First up, hold off on shampooing for 24 to 48 hours after you get your new hue. When you’re ready to wash, skip hot showers since the heat can open up the cuticle, releasing your new shade (you may also want to wash every other day to keep that hair color in top form). On a similar note, only use styling tools deemed suitable for color-treated hair and prep strands with a heat protectant before getting down to business. And don’t forget the sunscreen. Look for a shampoo for colored hair designed to block UVA/UVB rays, as they can spell disaster for colored hair.

What does color-safe shampoo mean?

Your regular ol’ shampoo just won’t cut it on colored hair. That’s because typical poos contain salts and sulfates that can wreak havoc on colored strands. The best shampoo for colored hair is formulated without those damaging additives. Also, look for options that feature antioxidants to fight free radical damage (and, again, sun protection).

Can you use shampoo for color-treated hair on normal hair?

Yes, you can use shampoo for colored hair on virgin locks. But the reverse isn’t true (see above).

Are sulfates bad for color-treated hair?

No, they’re not bad, they’re downright evil. Consider sulfates the archenemy of colored hair. That’s why it’s super important to seek out shampoos that leave out the dangerous ingredient. Bonus: Sulfate-free shampoos are also great for curly hair because they help retain the curl.

Steven Meisel Photographs a Bevy of Beauties for Zara’s Spring 2020 Campaign

Zara has been in our good graces since 2017 after tapping legendary photographer Steven Meisel to capture its advertising campaigns. Season after season, our forum members have nothing but praise for Meisel’s contributions to the Spanish retailer’s campaigns. And Spring 2020 is no different. Back for a seventh time, Meisel captures Abby Champion, Julia Nobis, Lexi Boling, Mona Tougaard, Ning Jinyi and Sacha Quenby (each styled by Karl Templer) for the series of romantic black and white images under the creative direction of Fabien Baron.

The brand’s latest campaign was a big hit on our forums. “Absolutely insane,” declared helmutnotdead in admiration.

“Absolute perfection! It’s embarrassing that Zara can beat each and every high end label season after season with their Meisel campaigns. Dior who? Chanel who? Givenchy who? This ended up being my favorite campaign of this season,” proclaimed aracic.

“Zara is the most luxurious brand out there,” dontbeadrag chimed in.

“Sooooo gorgeous. Love the group shots especially. Thank God for Zara LOL,” added bluestar.

“A gorgeous campaign… Meisel is an absolute genius because once again everything featured looks far more expensive than it actually is. Zara struck gold with Meisel and everyone else included here and long may the partnership continue,” raved vogue28.

Voluminous Dresses Are Our New Quarantine Uniform

Now that we’re cooped up at home, we have time to try lots of things we never would have dared. Take voluminous dresses. Before the pandemic, most of us didn’t exactly have experimenting with the larger-than-life movement on our to-do lists. But since we’re trying to stay comfy while staying indoors, it seems like the perfect opportunity to test out the trend.

Think of all those voluminous dresses you’ve seen touted online as another form of nightgowns. They’re roomy yet still look polished enough to impress at your next Zoom meeting or on your upcoming virtual date. And they’re constructed of cozy material like cotton so you won’t mind rocking them all day long.

Once we’re able to go (somewhat) back to normal, voluminous dresses will slot easily into your late spring/early summer wardrobe. You can wear them as intended, in billowy fashion, or wrap them up with stylish belts. Maxi dresses are great on their own combined with flats. The shorter silhouettes will even work come fall since they’re practically begging to be teamed with straight-leg jeans.

Ready to crank up the volume? See the slideshow above for the best voluminous dresses to lounge around in at home now and flex your sartorial muscle in later.

Is CBD Oil Legit? Here Are 7 Things to Know Before You Try It

CBD latte

CBD oil has been splashed across the internet as a miracle cure for everything from anxiety to insomnia, but is it really all it’s made out to be? We investigate.

First things first: cannabidiol (aka CBD) is not an oil.

“Though in certain circumstances it may have actual oil added, CBD is a goopy extract that’s chemically closer to a wax,” explains Dr. Jordan Tishler, a Harvard College and Harvard Medical graduate who runs InhaleMD, a practice that focuses on using cannabis to improve patients’ lives. “CBD is a medicine derived from cannabis or hemp.”

Which brings us to another important point to clear up: hemp and marijuana are part of the same plant species, Cannabis sativa L., and share many similar traits. “The biggest (and the legal) distinction between the two plants is that hemp contains less than 0.3 percent THC (the compound responsible for the psychoactive or ‘high’ feeling), whereas marijuana contains more than 0.3 percent THC,” says Kerrigan Behrens of Sagely Naturals, a wellness/beauty brand that makes CBD-infused products.

If you’re looking to avoid a high, hemp-derived CBD is the safest bet. “Most marijuana-derived CBD products contain enough THC to give you the high [unlike hemp]. Hemp-derived CBD is a lot easier to access since it’s legal in all 50 states and can be found online or in your local natural food and supplement store. If you’re looking for a product that contains THC and you live in a state where marijuana is now medically or recreationally legal, you can also find CBD in marijuana dispensaries.”

What are the benefits of using CBD?

According to Brandon Nolte, owner of Healthy Hemp Oil, CBD is used to help people with sleep, stress and inflammation. “The amazing thing about CBD is that it actually works with current pathways that exist in your body; it works by binding to receptor sites within the brain and then activates a calming effect that can spread throughout the body. Effects can be felt as quick as 10 to 15 minutes for tinctures or as long as one hour for CBD dog treats/edibles.”

In what forms is CBD available?

“The most common form is suspended in oil — e.g., a tincture — which has an oil dropper that you either put under your tongue or a sprayer that sprays directly into your mouth,” says Behrens. “Some people don’t love the taste of CBD or the feeling of oil in their mouths, so they prefer to take CBD capsules.” Like with all supplements, there’s a lot of marketing and fluff, so make your purchases carefully.

According to Behrens, the best way to ensure you’re getting the most CBD absorbed into your body (i.e., the highest bioavailability) is to look for capsules that are water-soluble. If you’re using CBD for symptoms like anxiety or sleep, oral applications are usually your best bet but speak with an expert about dosage. “Typically, capsules come in at least 5, 10 or 20 mg of CBD,” says Nolte, who adds that since the CBD is absorbed in your stomach first, it takes an hour or more for you to feel the effects, but then it lasts for several hours (which makes it great for sleep).

If you don’t have access to an expert and are concerned about dosage, Behrens recommends starting with a small amount every day and seeing how you feel. “If, after a week or two, you’re not getting the desired effects, you can begin taking more. As far as time of day, some of our users tell us that the CBD helps to relax them and so they take it before bed, while others prefer to take it in the mornings so they can feel the effects during the day.”

Another common form and the one that is said to have the fastest effect is a vaporizer. “Using a vaporizer allows you to feel the effects of CBD within a few minutes, but it doesn’t last as long as the other forms. There are also lots of fun flavors to try in this category,” says Nolte. Another option is concentrates, which are the highest serving size of all the product types.

“It’s basically pure hemp oil with CBD and not a lot else. For that reason, they can be economical, but they also have a stronger hemp taste to them. Similar to the capsules, the concentrates last a long time, but since they are absorbed sublingually at first, they can kick in a little quicker than capsules.”

Lastly, you can find CBD in creams, lotions and salves. “These products are often infused with complementary ingredients that can help CBD’s natural ability to fight pain and inflammation (think essential peppermint oil and menthol),” says Behrens.

Is there an overdose danger?

Don’t worry, CBD cannot be lethally overdosed. It is, however, important to note that it can interact with conventional medications and potentially cause serious harm. “If you’re on a blood thinner, antiepileptic or immunosuppressant, for example, you should consult a knowledgeable cannabis specialist before taking CBD,” cautions Tishler. Ditto if you’re pregnant or nursing. You can get more information from the Association of Cannabis Specialists.

Is it even legal?

Regulation of CBD is complicated. As far as CBD oil made from marijuana, it’s confined to those states that approved marijuana for medical or recreational use. CBD oil made from industrial hemp is generally treated as a food supplement. That said, Tishler is quick to remind that it’s important to be careful with your money.

“The FDA did go after four companies who were selling CBD oil that contained no CBD, thus they were making false claims. Beyond that, however, the FDA has not moved to regulate it more closely. Many packages make all sorts of medical or wellness claims that just aren’t proven,” Tishler says. He adds that states may additionally regulate CBD via their state medical cannabis laws, but most people are buying CBD via the web, so that means no local control and no safety information.

CBD’s efficacy is often contested.

Before you get too excited about adding CBD to your daily wellness regimen, according to Tishler, CBD at present is mostly snake oil. “CBD can be used in children with rare genetic seizure disorders to control the seizures and at very high doses it can be an anti-inflammatory (not a pain reliever) and anti-anxiety. However, these doses are so high they are unobtainable and unaffordable outside the lab. All the people running around putting 10 mg to 40 mg of CBD tincture under their tongues and extolling its vast benefits are simply getting placebo effect.”

That placebo effect seems to be working for a lot of people, however.

Ayumi Hanaoka, founder and creative director of 2WNTY3, told us there are many extreme claims about what CBD can do and, according to him, miraculously, they are mostly true. He cites things like relieving pain, reducing inflammation and treating mood disorders.

“For the recreational marijuana user, CBD can also act as an antidote to THC and can bring you balance when you feel like you’re a little too stoned. I think the most common myth is that CBD is completely non-psychoactive. Sure, you do not feel ‘stoned’ from CBD, but there is a psychological effect — it’s just subtle and positive.”

Meanwhile, Nolte says that “CBD oil can help with sleep, inflammation/pain and stress/anxiety,” but he’s quick to add that the scientific studies of CBD are still getting started. “Currently, the evidence is extremely positive that it helps with many health concerns, but these tests need to be verified by the scientific community over a long term before we can confidently label CBD as helpful for specific ailments. For me, the anecdotal evidence was enough to try it and see for myself.”

So what’s the conclusion?

There’s no denying the anecdotal evidence. CBD oil is helping a lot of people (even athletes). That said, don’t believe any claims that sound too good to be true and if you have a serious ailment or disease, talk to a medical professional before trying CBD oil.

Ignasi Monreal Illustrates Vogue Spain’s Calm and Tranquil May 2020 Cover

Our favorite fashion glossies are starting to address the global pandemic. First came Vogue Portugal’s mask-wearing models followed by Vogue Italia’s statement of solidarity with an all-white cover paying homage to medics. Vogue Spain’s response to the crisis arrives in the form of its May 2020 edition after a flawless Ana de Armas offering last month. Eugenia de la Torriente commissioned artist Ignasi Monreal to illustrate the front cover (a first in the publication’s 32-year history). Inspired by British Vogue‘s October 1945 cover after World War II, Vogue Spain’s latest left our forum members in awe.

“The cover is gorgeous, very dreamy. Definitely something to behold and that’s the difference between Farneti’s illustrated covers and this one,” proclaimed Benn98 the moment the cover came to light.

“Watch and learn Farneti! The message is there but it’s not forced, there’s a sense of fashion and calmness at the same time. Love it!” voiced apple in agreement.

[ Not a tFS forum member yet? Click here to join! ]

“I like it, a bit of calmness/tranquility in these turbulent times,” Nymphaea chimed in.

“How lovely, this is the creative way you can do a cover during COVID-19,” applauded Miss Dalloway.

MON was also thrilled with the outcome: “Now this is how you do it. Beautiful beyond words! It’s an illustration and yet somehow it feels like a fashion magazine. I just love this!”

Breathless shared the same sentiment. “Now that’s how you do a cover during these rough times!”

“It’s a beautiful illustration… I live in Spain and gotta say, the message is so right. There’s a sense of community right now that I never experienced before,” said kokobombon.

If you don’t know her by name, you definitely know her colorful scarves. That’s because Dr. Deborah Birx, White House coronavirus response coordinator, is rarely seen without one draped around her shoulders. Her silky scarf addiction even has several much-deserved Instagram accounts.

And whether the good doctor knows it or not, she’s supporting one of the hottest trends both on and off the runways. Brands like Givenchy, Etro, Roland Mouret and Missoni sent spring-appropriate colorful scarves down their respective runways during the Spring 2020 season. And long before that, street stylists were styling their strands with statement scarves.

While we love Birx’s super sophisticated spin on wearing the must-have accessory, we suggest you embrace all the different ways to rock scarves. Follow fashion’s lead by sporting them in or around your hair and wrapped around bags. And feel free to come up with brand new ways to flaunt your favorite. (We recommend donning one as a makeshift tie.)

In case your supply is dwindling or nonexistent, we rounded up the best colorful scarves suitable for the season. Whether you prefer abstract patterns or spring florals, we’ve got you covered. Plus, you don’t have to break the bank to get the look.

Selena Gomez Is Almost Unrecognizable on Interview’s Spring 2020 Cover

We’re all for magazines giving celebrities new looks and Interview gave Selena Gomez a makeover to mark her appearance on its Spring 2020 edition. Unlike Vogue, ELLE, Harper’s Bazaar and more recently WSJ. Magazine, Selena doesn’t look like herself on Interview‘s latest. In the stylized cover shot, the singer (who is about to bless us with a beauty line) wears a mix of Balenciaga, Vetements and Wolford selected by Mel Ottenberg before the lens of Eli Russell Linnetz.

Members of our forums could barely believe their eyes. “That’s Selena?” questioned dodencebt the moment the cover struck.

“Why did they make her look like Cardi B?” asked tipi1355.

[ Not a tFS forum member yet? Click here to join! ]

Different doesn’t always mean better. “How did she (or, more importantly, her management) agree to this? Mind-blowing,” added [Piece Of Me].

MON felt the same way: “This Selena era has been terrible. The fact that she agreed to this…choices.”

“She looks like an influencer/YouTuber just starting out, not knowing her angles. I don’t think Selena’s team is managing these shoots. It’s more in line with what the magazine wants. The competition is also fierce so she can’t play that hardball anymore,” commented Benn98.

“Don’t like this at all! It’s weird to look at. This new era of Selena is confusing, I hope she really has found inner peace, but to me it looks more like she wants to convince herself of that rather than she really feels that,” declared a less-than-impressed apple.
