Selena Gomez embraced New York City’s beloved all-black uniform today, stepping out on the set of Only Murders in the Building in a black blouse, trousers, and a long coat. She carried one of her dogs—seemingly her younger dog Daisy—with her on set and accessorized with a gold necklace and hoop earrings, plus a black
Almost one year ago to the day, my colleagues and I left our office for the last time—not knowing it would be the last time, for a long time. The intervening year has left plenty of us feeling the enormous weight of loss—of loved ones or dear friends, of time and experiences out in the
I’m sitting upstairs, trying to work, but loud guffaws keep emanating from downstairs. “I’m sorry,” I say to the person on the other end of the call. “It’s my son.” My Mother is giggling, and my 18-month-old son is emitting the loudest belly laughs you’ve ever heard. “A hat!” she says, in a singsong that

Courtesy Mary-Louise Parker She would have read this first. So many times, when I finished writing something, I either sent it to her or dumped it in the trash. Technically, she kept me from throwing away much of my life after trying to make sense of it on paper. She won’t be reading this one.
Back in 2019, I traveled a lot for work. I lived out of my carry-on and slept in hotel rooms almost 200 nights out of the year. In a typical week, I never cooked, rarely had more than two nights in a row in my own bed, and ordered a lot of takeout. Now, not
The first pronghorns appear in the meadow in June—three adults and two twig-legged newborn fawns, all of them the same tawny gold as the wild grasses they lounge in and graze, with crisp white patches on their cheeks, throats, chests, and bellies. They’re watching me with their binocular vision, ready to run at the slightest
Last June, as my Mother walked out of Lincoln Hospital, where she’s the head OB-GYN nurse, four white trucks lined the Bronx facility’s facade. She asked a coworker standing at the street corner, “Are those them? Are those the trailers?” The woman turned and nodded. “Yeah, those are like the mortuaries now.” They were refrigerated
My apartment building in Washington Heights, Nuevayol, has not had gas during this entire pandemic, and it looks like this will last for another long stretch of months. This means: no oven and no stove. The hotplate given to us by management is crappy by dormroom standards—the HI-MED-LOW markings scratched off within a day so…
I first heard the siren call 26 days into quarantine. During a 3 a.m. insomnia-induced Instagram scroll, I fixated on Bella Hadid’s 2019 blonde transformation, DM-ing it to ELLE’s beauty and health director with the succinct “Should I?” Apparently, I wasn’t the only one desiring change while in our Groundhog Day–esque shelter-in-place: Rosalía, Emily Ratajkowski,
Lady Gaga dropped a stunning post on Instagram teasing her upcoming film House of Gucci. She and Adam Driver star as Italian couple Patrizia Reggiani and Maurizio Gucci. Gucci was the grandson of the founder of the Gucci fashion house, Guccio Gucci. Reggiani was convicted of orchestrating her husband’s murder in 1998. Gaga shared a
Style Points is a weekly column about how fashion intersects with the wider world. I have long maintained that the worst thing you can do to me is send me an email. But lately, I’ve had to revise that stance to “maybe some emails are good.” Between Molly Young’s books newsletter Read Like the Wind,
Courtesy of Chanel / Inez & Vinoodh We’ll be the first to admit there are things we don’t miss about fashion week: the rigid, never-ending itinerary; midnight deadlines; frantically searching for a bathroom between shows; the guilt associated with being tired, annoyed and overworked while being part of such a beautiful industry. But one thing
Joe Maher/BFCGetty Images The Gilded Age. The Age of Enlightenment. The Industrial Revolution. And now, upon us, is the Basique Era. This isn’t a phenomenon due solely to our year-long quarantine, but a whole new lifestyle that urges you to embrace your every Basic desire in unprecedented ways. Go ahead: Slip on some Skims and
Exactly one week before the 2020 presidential election, Lizzo wanted everyone to know that the last time we were on such a precipice, in 2016, a good portion of America’s eligible voting population did not cast a ballot. The message was particularly clear because the statistic sat atop her head: the numeral 40 and a
A couple of weeks into quarantine, Carey, a 42-year-old New Jersey mother of three, decided she wanted to lose the extra 15 pounds she’d been carrying since her youngest child was born in 2017. “Experts were saying that diabetes, which runs in my family and being overweight were risk factors for contracting COVID-19. I [thought],
The Queen and Buckingham Palace have finally responded to Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s Oprah interview, where the couple spoke candidly about their experiences in the institution. Among the bombshell claims was that a member of the royal family (not the Queen or Prince Philip) had concerns that Archie’s skin would be too dark, the
Rihanna hasn’t let the ongoing coronavirus pandemic stop her from dressing up. The singer was photographed going to Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica on Sunday night, and she wore the most statement of early spring statement outfits. RiRi went out in a leopard coat, printed red midi dress, and heels. She accessorized with necklaces, a
On February 3, nearly four months after she lost her third child, Jack, to pregnancy complications at 20 weeks, Chrissy Teigen shared that she was experiencing what felt like baby kicks in her uterus. “My little Jack would have been born this week so I’m a bit off,” Teigen tweeted. “I truly feel kicks in
Courtesy of Dior / @Elina_Kechicheva Dior’s magic is the stuff of fairytales. From its embrace of the feminine mystique to an international, all-star fanbase that includes its newest face, Jisoo of Blackpink, to supernatural growth in sales in 2020 despite a global pandemic, the fashion house knows the power of storytelling. For its fall-winter 2021
One year into the pandemic, its effects are threatening to undo decades of investment in girls’ and women’s access to education, economic opportunity, and safety. The facts are dire: The crisis has led to an increase in domestic violence; the gender poverty gap will likely worsen, as more women than men have lost work during

It’s no secret that the beauty industry is reliant on the wallets of women, but for a very long time the vast majority of product lines were founded by men—men who dictated standards of beauty, trends, and spending habits. But female beauty entrepreneurs have slowly gained ground—carving out space in an arena that’s supposed to

“I have two kids at home, a new job, my husband is about to throw himself out a window, and you want me to pick up shells on the beach? All I did was brush my teeth today.” This is what ran through Julia’s* head when a friend suggested they go sea kayaking last spring,
For her primetime interview with Oprah Winfrey, it’s clear that Meghan Markle wants her clothes to do at least some of the talking.

Oprah’s highly anticipated interview with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry aired on Sunday with a slew of bombshell revelations, including how one member of the royal family questioned how dark their son Archie’s skin would be. There has been a lot of reaction to the explosive sit-down, both on social media and in the U.S.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry dropped a lot of bombshells during their two-hour interview with Oprah. But one of the happier ones was that the couple chose to get married privately—for themselves—before their big royal wedding ceremony. “I was thinking about it, you know our wedding—three days before our wedding, we got married.
