Lottie Matthews, the caftan-clad spiritual guru of Yellowjackets’ gory second season, considers herself a true believer. By proxy, then, so is her actress, the elegant if electric Simone Kessell, who stares at me over the rim of the mug gripped between her fingers and tries, repeatedly, to convince me Lottie’s not a liar. Or, anyway—she

The crème de la crème of timepieces, the mechanical watch is the hallmark of luxury wristwear. Using a clockwork mechanism to measure time, the best mechanical watches are powered by manually winding a mainspring that transmits force through various gears to kickstart the balance wheel—setting off that sweet ticking sound of working hands. Long-lasting and

Getty Images As a fashion commerce editor, I get a lot of emails about the things celebrities wear. In turn, I report back to my readers and aid in your efforts to “get the look.” For example, when Jacob Elordi is seen with a Bottega Veneta tote, I’ll tell you exactly which one and where

The tall man is lucky in most things. He makes more money than shorter men, he’s happier, has higher levels of life satisfaction, and he’s handy whenever something’s on a high shelf. But it’s not all gravy. Travel can be torture, back pain is inevitable, and clothing choices shrink for every bit of fabric you

Minor spoilers below. Modern audiences fell in love with the regency era when the Shonda Rhimes-produced royal romance series Bridgerton premiered on Netflix in 2020. While the series has largely focused on the titular Bridgerton family and their various romances, it’s the commandeering Queen Charlotte, played by Golda Rosheuvel, who is getting her own spin-off

There are a lot of things that come to mind when contemplating the future of fashion. Maybe it’s the rise of digital fashion—as in NFTs, virtual fashion shows, and augmented reality—which seemingly all belong in a galaxy far, far away. Or, perhaps a little closer to earth, it’s the longevity of our clothes and the

Small watches for men, in my (correct) opinion, are a necessary backlash to the large-faced watches of the 90s/00s. A time when the Jay Zs and Sylvester Stallones of this world swaggered with large lumps of metal strapped to their wrists, making a flimsy statement about masculinity. A sort of caveman logic of big equals

Actress Yara Shahidi lets ELLE in on her life as she plays a game of “Ask Me Anything.” Shahidi skips straight to the good stuff—answering her biggest fashion regret, giving an inside scoop on the hit show Black-ish, and even revealing her undeniable similarity with supermodel Gigi Hadid.

Harry Styles rocks Tom Ford, Ed Sheeran is a fan of Paco Rabanne, and Jude Law loves Paul Smith. There are lots of best cologne brands, and we all have our favorite fragrances. It’s great to have a couple of signature scents. But let’s get real; if you wear a particular cologne every day, it

Billie Eilish went for an all-black look on the Met Gala red carpet like many other guests, opting for a custom Simone Rocha sheer dress worn with an Agent Provocateur corset. But for the night’s after parties, she wore colorful New York Knicks merch. (A fitting look for the home team!) The singer was photographed

I’m that guy who sneezes around potent perfume. Plus, I hate the idea of suffocating friends and colleagues in a cloud of cloying cologne. This means I’m always on the lookout for kinder olfactory options. When I came across these crowd-pleasing best natural colognes, I knew from then on; I could breathe easy. Synthetic scents

With the addition of “new mother” to my CV this year, my to-do list has amassed many new responsibilities that didn’t always clutter my (typically) well-managed workflow. To be clear: I’m not complaining. I couldn’t be more grateful. But as any parent will attest, child-rearing challenges make life feel foreign and chaotic. To color my

If long, shaggy hairstyles aren’t your thing and close shorn buzz cuts seem a bit too extreme, then a crew cut is the great middle point on the hair spectrum. These slick and practical crops have been around for decades and continue to be a feature in breakdowns of the best haircuts for men year

To get a sense of a writer’s artistic and moral ethos, look no further than her sources of inspiration. “There were a lot of books that I was reading while I was writing Homebodies,” recalls Tembe Denton-Hurst. A few notable titles included Thick by Tressie McMillan Cottom, Training School for Negro Girls by Camille Acker,

If you’ve ever laid your eyes on these two brands, you know that they look very similar. So much so, it’s very easy to get them confused, even side by side. Meaning it’s finally time to decide the ultimate winner of the Doc Martens vs Solovair battle. I’ve tested the two boots in a (literal)

There are few things fashion editors love more than a sitewide sale at one of our favorite brands. So it almost goes without saying that this week, ELLE staffers are paying close attention to the 30% off sitewide Alo Yoga sale happening now until May 5. It’s not just fashion insiders who love Alo Yoga.

Breaking in a new pair of Doc Martens in less than a week can be challenging, and a pain-filled experience, they can leave you with nasty blisters and sore feet that take weeks to heal. But there are several tips that can help you expedite the process. In this post, I will show you how
