On a recent morning, Anna Chiu, co-founder of the womenswear brand Kamperett, received an email from somewhere over the Pacific Ocean.

Style Points is a weekly column about how fashion intersects with the wider world. On the spring 2024 runways, you famously couldn’t go five feet without running into a ruffle, rosette, or bow. Now, the style is devouring TikTok too, with ribbons adorning everything from TV remotes to chicken tenders. Fashion’s wave of sweetness may
Probiotics — nicknamed “good” or “helpful” bacteria by health professionals — are live bacteria and yeasts that help keep your gut healthy and improve digestion. However, when you start upping your probiotic intake (either through supplements or eating probiotic-rich foods, like yogurt), it’s not always easy to spot the signs that probiotics are working. “There

It was the era of the agonizing (though some say scarring) Presidential Fitness Test, and you may be apprehensive about performing the upper-body-building exercise to this
Welcome to Same Same But Different. As Gen Z and millennial fashion editors, respectively, we know a thing or two about shopping—for all ages, and especially our demographics.

You may think you have this whole “breathing” thing taken care of. After all, it’s one of those processes that’s (blessedly) automatic and (blessedly) doesn’t need real estate on your to-do list.

There’s a certain type of adrenaline rush that comes with gliding down a fluffy, snow-capped mountain—you’re outside, breathing in the fresh alpine air, and taking in unparalleled views of the world around you, all while donning the best ski outfits for women. But how, exactly, does one get here? While one might need to endure
From an early age, we’re taught the golden rule: “Treat others as you would like to be treated.” The irony here? Many of us don’t even treat ourselves the way we’d like to be treated.

“Honestly, I don’t fuck with Molly anymore,” were Issa’s foreshadowing words just three minutes into the plot-busting Blocc Party episode of Insecure season 4. What ensued just moments later was one of the most dramatic, public bestie-breakups in the history of television. For seasons, the friction between on-screen BFFLs, Issa and Molly had been brewing,
Once upon a time, there were rules in fashion—like, say, giving white clothing a full stop after Labor Day. Our attitudes have since changed into a new modus operandi: anything goes. Henceforth, the new style manifesto—in both the fashion industry and social media—is an open call for everyone to wear whatever, whenever. Birkenstocks, once viewed
Having trouble falling asleep is an experience many people (hi, there are 50 to 70 million of us) know like the backs of our eyelids. You would think such a ubiquitous issue would have an equally ubiquitous solution — but alas, here we are. When it comes to getting a good night’s rest, many of

When it’s cold outside, it’s tempting to stay inside. And for beauty maximalists, in particular, wintertime offers the chance to embrace being antisocial and try some products and procedures that call for rest and recovery. If you’ve heard people talking a lot about Morpheus—and then quickly realized they weren’t discussing a character from The Matrix—this

Aging is an inevitable part of life, but not everyone loves every aspect of it. Dealing with the skin changes that come with growing older is particularly challenging, and perhaps the most stubborn area to manage is the neck. “In addition to variables like gender and genetic predisposition, certain lifestyle factors like smoking, drinking, and
Just the mere mention of artificial intelligence within the fashion industry ignites a certain fight-or-flight response. It tends to be seen as a negative thing, with models being replaced, or shoppers being tracked by these advancements.
