New Style Idea

I know this is somewhat revolting, but I honestly can’t remember what the original color of my sheets was when I was in high school and college. I religiously slathered myself in self-tanning lotion every single night, and because of that, everything that touched my skin in that era (clothes, sheets, swimsuits, bras, the whole shebang) was tinged with brown and orange. Not cute, and of course, the accompanying telltale scent of self-tanner was yet another unfortunate side effect.  Luckily for me and my love for perpetually bronzed and glowing skin,  the self-tanning market has come a long way since the early 2000s, and now the best self-tanning lotions not only deliver far more natural-looking and customizable results but smell far less offensive—if they even smell at all—and are made with cleaner, safer ingredients . While I love and appreciate how innovative brands are getting as far as formulas, (serums! masks! mousses! oils! sprays! cloths!) lotions, in my mind, are by far the m

Hair color has been a touchy subject over the last year. With salons being forced to close as we all sheltered in place, many were left with few choices for maintaining their color. For the bravest souls among us, this year has meant getting comfortable with  DIY box dye or  customized at-home kits from a colorist, if you were really lucky.

And after a year away, you might need some inspiration for what statement to make. We've got you covered on that front. We tapped three of the most sought-after celebrity colorists, Ryan Pearl , Laura Gibson , and Jeremy Tar

When  Dua Lipa wore a Versace mermaid dress to the 2020 American Music Awards, I instantly had flashbacks to watching H2O  and Aquamarine as a kid and wanting to be a mermaid at least for one day. (Come on, you know you did too.) Versace's S/S 21 runway collection heavily featured everything of the under-the-sea variety (down to the models' wet-hair looks), and the trending theme has only gotten bigger since then. I know what you're thinking—it's obvious. Summer is the time for beaches and seaside vacations, so why not carry the theme into your ensembles? I just didn't see it coming in such a big wave, that's all. (No pun intended.)  From prints that mix in mermaids and dolphins to summer colorways featuring blue-toned ocean hues, there's a lot to love about this beach-ready trend.  I dream about this dress on a daily basis. You can't tell me this isn't the cutest pair of earrings you've ever seen. The perfect way to clip back your be
