It's a chilly morning in early winter, the kind that cloaks the world in a soft hush. You drift through your closet, your fingertips skimming the fabrics you've collected over time. Perhaps your hand pauses on a woolen cardigan—slightly coarse and nubby, its thick yarns offering a comforting warmth—or lingers on a smooth silk blouse that catches the light with its subtle sheen. Your mind sparks with possibility: It's not just the color you're drawn to; it's how these textures, when paired thoughtfully, can transform even the simplest outfit into something quietly captivating. We often obsess over hue and silhouette, chasing the perfect shade of green or the most flattering cut of trousers. Yet, as we refine our personal style,...
In an era of fast fashion and fleeting trends, there's something undeniably alluring about the quiet luxury of old money style. This isn't just about wearing expensive clothes—it's an entire lifestyle aesthetic that whispers rather than shouts, built on generations of refined taste and understated elegance. The old money style isn’t a fashion statement but a quiet conversation between past and present, whispered in cashmere and sealed with a signet ring. The Essence of Old Money According to Merriam-Webster Dictionary, old money refers to “people whose families have been rich for a long time.” Unlike new money, whose wealth has been gained within their lifetime (like Mark Zuckerberg or Beyoncé), old money accumulates and passes wealth over generations (think Rockefellers...
Politics has always been considered a men's game. In movies, we have Claire Underwood in "House of Cards" and Kate Wyler in "Diplomat", but in real life, women in high political office remain relatively few. There was never a female president in the United States, and the highest position a woman has held is Vice President. So, for any female who decides to run for President, their public image becomes incredibly important, and their appearance should be carefully crafted depending on the message they want to project. In Kamala Harris's case, the message seems directed at her male politician colleagues: "I'm your equal" and at all people of America who are going to vote: "I'm strong, and I'm a leader"....
The fashion world is speaking in whispers — or should we say, through veils. In the last several days, we had a chance to see three photoshoots with celebrities wearing veils. When three style icons - Eiza González for M Revista De Milenio, Naomi Campbell for V Magazine, and Ariana Grande for Swarovski — all appear veiled within days of each other, we're witnessing more than coincidence. We're watching a trend unfold. Eiza González for M Revista De Milenio Naomi Campbell for V Magazine for Winter 2024 Ariana Grande for Swarovski The Art of Wearing Veils A veil transforms more than your appearance — it transforms your presence. A veiled face has a magnetic quality — the more it conceals,...
At the 2024 CFDA Fashion Awards, Katie Holmes wore the dress that no one would imagine on her, except for her stylist maybe. This style is absolutely unusual for an actress, and the bold color scheme was definitely borrowed from another season's palette (it belongs to Spring family), but she looked just stunning. So, why did it work? Let's analyze. We are talking about Carolina Herrera SS25 color-block gown in light pink and red-orange. First thing you notice about the dress is its color. This color combo is very pleasing to an eye: it's warm (warm colors always generate more arousal than cool ones), it's refreshing and these pigments can be found in human's skin — think natural blush and...
