Banish Dark Circles With These Brightening Undereye Creams

While dark circles are often due to genetic factors, other factors, including lack of sleep, dehydration, seasonal allergies, and under-eye sun damage. While making lifestyle changes to get to the root cause of the (sadly) very common skincare problem is the ideal solution, there are plenty of topical treatments to help illuminate dark circles and combat recurrent discoloration. Even if you have been genetically cursed with chronic dark circles, there are plenty of effective eye cream formulas that will help fade the darkness and brighten the area—all without having to resort to an in-office treatment.

Unfortunately, many of these corrective treatments are only able to yield temporary results, meaning that you’ll have to use them every day to see results—but that doesn’t mean you’re completely out of luck when it comes to improving pesky undereye contours. Many darkness-lifting eye cream products are powered with caffeine, which, when applied topically to the under eyes helps to tighten blood vessels, which in turn, helps to reduce discoloration as well as puffiness. Other shadow-reducing agents include vitamin C, retinol, and some peptides. Alas, with the help of a good full-coverage concealer and one of these under eye creams, your peepers will be perked up in no time. Read on to check out our favorite formulas.

Adorable Yoga Mats That’ll Motivate You to Get to Class

If you’re a true yogi (or even a beginner at the mindful practice) you probably already know that bringing along an anti-slip yoga mat to your class (or your living room) is absolutely non-negotiable. With that being said, while these stabilizing pads are purely meant to be nothing but functional, that doesn’t mean that they have to be ugly. Why ruin your adorable yoga leggings and crop top set with a boring old mat, right? Fortunately, there are plenty of pretty downright adorable options on the market to choose from today, and while they may be adorned with on-trend colorways, stylish patterns, and eclectic design themes, they most certainly do not compromise quality and functionality to be merely a pretty face.

If you’re like me, investing in a new stylish activewear get-up or fitness accessory is the best way to motivate myself to stick to my fitness goals. I know, it may be petty, but what can I say? I’m an utterly visual person with a taste for novelty. So, if you’re looking for extra inspiration to make it to your pricey yoga class pass, try elevating your yoga game with one of these pretty little mats.

Jennifer Lopez & Ben Affleck Have Been ‘Spending’ Time Together Since Her Split From A-Rod

Hold the phone. Are Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck back together after her breakup with Alex Rodriguez? We’ll answer that question later, but what we can tell you now is that J-Lo and Ben have been “spending” a lot more time together since her split from A-Rod.

The New York Post’s Page Six reported on Friday, April 30, that J-Lo and Ben have hung out several times at her $28 million house in Los Angeles since she ended her relationship with A-Rod. Though the former couple haven’t been photographed together, a source told the newspaper that Ben is picked up by J-Lo’s security in her white Escalade SUV and taken to J-Lo’s house before he’s dropped back at home a few hours later. “Security picks him up at a nearby location and drops him off after spending a few hours at her house,” the insider said.

Page Six reports that Ben has visited J-Lo’s house at least three times during the day since she’s returned to Los Angeles after filming her upcoming movie, Shotgun Wedding, in the Dominican Republic. As for if Bennifer is back together, it looks like J-Lo and Ben are just friends. “They are friends…they’ve never not been,” Page Six’s source said.

J-Lo and Ben’s hangouts come two weeks after she and A-Rod confirmed that they had split after four years together. The former couple started dating in 2017 and got engaged in 2019. “We have realized we are better as friends and look forward to remaining so,” the couple said statement to the Today show at the time. “We will continue to work together and support each other on our shared businesses and projects. We wish the best for each other and one another’s children. Out of respect for them, the only other comment we have to say is thank you to everyone who has sent kind words and support.”

A week after their breakup, on April 23, J-Lo and A-Rod were photographed at restaurant at the Hotel Bel-Air in Los Angeles, the same spot they had their first date in 2017. A source told People at the time that the dinner wasn’t romantic and was for A-Rod and J-Lo to “talk business and how to move forward in a friendly way.” “Jennifer and Alex are figuring out how to be exes and still remain friends,” the insider continued.

According to Page Six, Ben was seen at J-Lo’s Bel-Air house five days later on April 28. The next day, on April 29, he was also seen leaving his car at the Hotel Bel-Air before being picked up by J-Lo’s white Escalade to go to her home. Page Six reports that the Escalade dropped him back at the hotel three and a half hours later. He was seen exiting the white SUV in a T-shirt, jeans and sneakers with a green backpack.

J-Lo and Ben, who starred together in movies like Jersey Girl and Gigli, got engaged in 2002 months after J-Lo announced her divorce from her husband at the time, Cris Judd. The couple ended their engagement in 2004 but have remained friends. For InStyle’s May 2021 cover, Ben talked about what it’s been like to see his ex “getting the credit she deserves” in her career after all these years. “I thought I had a good work ethic, but I was completely humbled and blown away by what she was committed to doing day in and day out, the seriousness in which she took her work, the quiet and dedicated way she went about accomplishing her goals, and then how she would go back and redouble her efforts,” he said.

He continued, “She remains, to this day, the hardest-working person I’ve come across in this business. She has great talent, but she has also worked very hard for her success, and I’m so happy for her that she seems, at long last, to be getting the credit she deserves.”

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter in January 2021, Ben recalled the sexism and racism that J-Lo experienced while they were together. “People were so fucking mean about her—sexist, racist. Ugly, vicious shit was written about her in ways that if you wrote it now you would literally be fired for saying those things you said,” Affleck said. “Now it’s like, she’s lionized and respected for the work she did, where she came from, what she accomplished—as well she fucking should be! I would say you have a better shot, coming from the Bronx, of ending up as like [Justice Sonia] Sotomayor on the Supreme Court than you do of having Jennifer Lopez’s career and being who she is at 50 years old today.”

Olivia Rodrigo Just Revealed An Unreleased Glossier Product & I’m Drooling

There’s nothing better than a new Vogue Beauty Secrets video. We get to see inside a celebrity’s makeup or skincare routine for better or for worse. (Looking at you, Gwyneth). On Thursday, Vogue released our girl Olivia Rodrigo’s makeup routine and there are some gems inside the video. She reveals dermatitis she’s been dealing with, as well as where the 18-year-old gets breakouts. It’s sponsored by Glossier so of course, there are Glossier products strewn throughout—including an unreleased, top-secret lipstick launch.

Our mission at STYLECASTER is to bring style to the people, and we only feature products we think you’ll love as much as we do. Please note that if you purchase something by clicking on a link within this story, we may receive a small commission of the sale.

First, she pops Olly Multivitamin Gummys ($12.42 at Amazon), which she says taste as good as they make her hair look. The first step of her pre-makeup routine is washing her face with Epionce Milky Lotion Cleanser ($34 at Dermstore). “I had the worst case of dermatitis, where I just broke out all around my mouth and it was awful,” she says. “I think it was wearing masks a lot and also using a bunch of products that irritated my skin.” Now she’s all about a less-is-more approach.

She follows up her cleanser with a serum from The Ordinary, though we can’t tell exactly which one it is. Then she does a little relaxing Gua Sha. “I love alone time. I am very much an introvert,” she says. “And so doing stuff like that really helps energize me for whatever I’m doing in my work, or in my life. Next comes a little lip scrub and then the First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Tinted Moisturizer SPF 30 ($28 at Ulta).

Rodrigo then applies Glossier Stretch Concealer ($18 at Glossier), which she loves for its buttery feel and buildable coverage. Next comes a little blush and bronzer (we can’t tell what she’s using), followed by winged eyeliner with Glossier Pro Tip
brush point liquid eyeliner ($16 at Glossier). She fills in her brows with a pencil and then uses Glossier Boy Brow ($16 at Glossier) to set them. Next, she curls her lashes and applies what looks like the Milk Makeup Kush High Volumizing Mascara ($25 at Sephora).

Finally, here comes the top-secret, unreleased Glossier Ultralip Gloss.

“So the Ultralip has hyaluronic acid in it also which is great ’cause it keeps your lips moisturized which is very important for me,” she says. “I love how it’s buildable. I love the natural color of my lips. This just sort of accentuates that, it doesn’t try to cover it up or put a new color on top of it. It just emphasizes what you got.” She’s wearing the shade Ember.

We hear that the Ultralip is coming soon. It’s a lip tint with the sheen of a gloss and the moisture of a balm. Yes, we want it, too. We’ll update you as soon as it’s available.

WOW—Kim Kardashian Looks Shockingly Different With Bleached Eyebrows

Is there anything better than getting your hair cut and/or colored, leaving the salon and feeling like a supermodel? No, we don’t think there is. But because of the current climate, seeing your hairstylist might not be as easy and getting your split ends cut off or your roots done might just be a quick in-and-out appointment without all the fun. That’s one reason why we’re so obsessed with actors and influencers who switch up their look on a dime. We’re jealous, sure, but it’s also aspirational AF. So, we’re rounding up the best celebrity hair makeovers of 2021 as they come so you can drool with us.

Though, it’s not just about drooling over these looks. Saving this page and referring back to it at the hair salon can help you decide if curtain bangs or a bob is right for you. Hairstylists actually love when you show them photos because they can get a real feel of the vibe you’re looking for and can adjust the look into something that suits your wants and needs. This goes for color, too. Did you ask for balayage when you really meant a shadow root? It’s easier to just give examples of what you want.

Some of these celebrity looks aren’t permanent. Stars love to play around with wigs, extensions and faux bangs. But there’s nothing wrong with that. Real or faux, we’re taking inspo from our favorites to figure out our next look for 2021 and beyond.

Our mission at STYLECASTER is to bring style to the people, and we only feature products we think you’ll love as much as we do. Please note that if you purchase something by clicking on a link within this story, we may receive a small commission of the sale.

Kim Kardashian

Look who’s blonde again! But it was only for a few hours. Kardashian was shooting an upcoming campaign either for KKW Beauty or Skims. She actually did get her eyebrows bleached and we actually loved the look with her naturally dark hair. But then when they put the blonde wing on it was like, whoa. Right before she left the studio, she snapped a photo showing us she’s back to brunette again, including the brows.

Sabrina Carpenter

Say goodbye to curtain bangs and hello to ‘Bardot bangs!’ Hairstylist Laurie Heaps gave Sabrina Carpenter piece-y bombshell bangs inspired by the iconic French star Brigitte Bardot. We’re obsessed.

Instagram PhotoSource: Instagram

Selena Gomez

In an Instagram photo promoting her beauty brand, Rare Beauty, in April 2021, Gomez showed off her newly dyed blonde hair. The picture saw the former Disney Channel star light blonde tresses and dark roots. She most recently dyed her hair blonde in 2017 in a color dubbed by her hairstylist Nikki Lee as “Nirvana Blonde.” Gomez’s 2021 color was also done by Lee and Riawna Capri. “We’ve been doing Selena’s color for over a decade now. She typically keeps it pretty natural, but this time she went for a big change. This blonde is unique to her as we had to make sure there was an equal balance of cool and warm for her skin tone. It’s an edgier look and perfect for summer,” the hairstylists said in a statement.

Elizabeth Olsen

At the virtual launch of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier miniseries, Olsen debuted a totally different look from her usual copper-blonde hair. The bangs! The darker color! So chic.

Chrissy Teigen

We love how Teigen is playing around with wigs lately and experimenting with hair color. Although she only kept the silver shade for a day, we hope she brings it back. It looks amazing on her.

Kristen Bell

It seems like Bell is dressed up in character to film a TV show or movie but we’re loving these piecey bangs on her and we hope she keeps them up IRL.

Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

While filling us in on the Covid-19 relief package, AOC showed off her adorable new haircut. When followers commented saying they loved the chop, she replied, “Let’s not start another national crisis over it, right?”

Gigi Hadid

The model mom returned to the runway, walking in the Versace fall 2021 show. Hairstylist Panos Papandrianos wrote “Ginger for Gigi” on Instagram, making us believe he really did dye the model’s hair this gorgeous red shade for the occasion.

Olivia Rodrigo

The ‘Drivers License’ singer jumped on the curtain bang trend thanks to hairstylist Clayton Hawkins. They’re subtle but make a big difference in her look. One interesting note: Sabrina Carpenter has them too.

Instagram PhotoSource: Instagram

Lana Condor

The actress looks so great in this pastel pink wig, maybe she’s considering doing it IRL? “Get ‘Anyone Else But You; to 5 mil streams and I’ll keep it,” she wrote on Instagram. Though, she told STYLECASTER last year, “I don’t know that I’d ever dye dye my hair. I think my mom would kill me, you’d know?”

Instagram PhotoSource: Instagram

Ashley Graham

The model had everyone thinking maybe she got a pixie cut but her hair is actually the result of new growth post hair loss. “Postpartum baby hairs come through!” she wrote on Instagram.

Instagram PhotoSource: Instagram

Emma Roberts

A new color and cut for the birthday girl! “Emma always looks and feels her best blonde,” said her hairstylist and Nine Zero One co-founder Nikki Lee. “We decided to keep her a warm blonde and went for a ’90s supermodel vibe. With a new baby and a big birthday, we went out with a bang! Lisa Satorn added extensions for length and fullness. I kept her haircut free and flowing with piecey layers around the face.” Lee keeps her client’s hair healthy with the In Common 3 Step Treatment System ($105 at In Common).

Instagram PhotoSource: Instagram

Katy Perry

Why not start with one of the biggest hair chameleons? Though she’s been ultra-blonde for a while, we can’t help but miss a brunette Katy Perry. It’s classically chic and fits her personality. So, when we saw these photos of backstage at Jimmy Kimmel Live, we were so excited to see the long brown hair. But it seems it’s a wig and she’s already back to blonde.

Outdoor Voices Revamped The Exercise Dress & It’s Even Better Than Before

When Outdoor Voices first launched The Exercise Dress, it was an instant hit. All over New York City, I saw women dressing it up and down, throwing it on for a yoga class or keeping it on for post-pilates brunch. Ever a girly-girl myself, I hadn’t thought about wearing a skirt or dress to the gym before, but this piece was an industry game-changer, redefining an area of my wardrobe I’d thought could only consist of leggings and sports bras.

Now, The Exercise Dress is back and better than ever, with a 2.0 design upgrade that has managed to improve upon perfection. No, I’m not exaggerating! In a way, it’s kind of funny that a workout dress is so revolutionary, but I can’t think of another brand that makes one that feels so wearable.

Yes, there are tennis skirts and golf skirts and silhouettes designed for female athletes of a similar nature, but prior to this dress, it had never occurred to me to want or need one for my everyday life.

Our mission at STYLECASTER is to bring style to the people, and we only feature products we think you’ll love as much as we do. Please note that if you purchase something by clicking on a link within this story, we may receive a small commission of the sale.

STYLECASTER | Outdoor Voices Dress

Cue Outdoor Voices elevating an underdog piece to an absolute must-have! This dress is made with the brand’s breathable Lightspeed fabric and features a shorts liner underneath so you don’t go flashing everyone else in your workout class.

The new iteration has more pockets than before and my personal favorite upgrade: adjustable straps. I visit my tailor on an almost-weekly basis having the straps shortened on all of my clothes (I have strangely petite shoulders!), so knowing I can adjust with ease for a good fit makes me love this dress even more.

The Exercise Dress comes in sizes XS-XL (It’s hella stretchy, but here’s hoping they expand this range even further!) and a gorgeous array of TK colors, from sunny Gecko yellow to pretty Pinot mauve.

STYLECASTER | Outdoor Voices Dress

And to be clear, you don’t have to wear this stylish dress to exercise. You can, thanks to the breathable fabric and generous stretch, but it looks just as cute styled with a denim jacket and some white kicks for brunch or a day of shopping.

I personally foresee myself reaching for this piece on days when I’m running around the city doing countless errands I’ve put off until I can simply no longer avoid them. Anyone else reserve their Sunday afternoon for that type of thing? Just because I’m stressed doesn’t mean I want to look like a mess!

STYLECASTER | Outdoor Voices Dress

Courtesy of Outdoor Voices.

Which is why, you guessed it, I’ll be snagging The Exercise Dress in more than one color. The hardest part will be choosing my favorites! Finally, I’ll have the opportunity to throw a head-nod of acknowledgement to all those other girls I see wearing this dress on the daily.

If you, too, are in need of a ‘fit that elevates your workout or errands-running wardrobe, snag the new-and-improved Exercise Dress on the Outdoor Voices site now. It’s back and better than ever, baby!

Travis Barker’s Ex Just Seeming Called Out Him & Kourtney For ‘Basing’ Their Relationship on ‘IG’

Not for her. Fans think Shanna Moakler shaded Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian‘s kissing photo after she criticized couples whose relationships are “based” on Instagram and social media posts.

Shanna, who divorced Travis in 2008 after four years of marriage, took to her Instagram recently to post a black-and-white photo of her boyfriend, Matthew Rondeau, kissing her hand. “He makes me happy. ❤🙃⚓ @matthew_rondeau,” she wrote in the caption.

It didn’t take long for fans to speculate that something was wrong in Shanna’s relationship because her boyfriend doesn’t post photos of her. “Girl don’t post him when he isn’t posting you. It’s embarrassing,” the user wrote. In her response, Shanna shaded couples who post too many photos of themselves on social media (a.k.a. Kourtney and Travis.) “unlike some people my relationship status isn’t based on social media posting… I’m happy on life not on IG,” she wrote.

Though Shanna didn’t name Kourtney or Travis, fans believe that Shanna was shading a recent photo on Kourtney’s Instagram of her and Travis making out while her legs were wrapped around him. The picture saw the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star in a bikini as she and Travis had a hot moment in the desert. “Just Like Heaven,” she captioned the picture, to which Travis commented, “EVERYTHING.”

Instagram PhotoSource: Instagram Instagram PhotoSource: Instagram

However, Shanna isn’t the only ex who seemed to have a problem with the picture. Kourtney’s ex-boyfriend, Younes Bendjima, was also accused of shading his ex when he posted a cryptic quote about “shamelessness” on his Instagram Story. “Shamelessness has become so normal in today’s society that modesty has become strange,” the post read. He followed the Instagram Story with a second post, which read: “Do yourself a favour. Surround yourself with those who speak of visions, ideas, goals, growth. Not those who sit and gossip about others. And if you do find yourself in that situation, excuse yourself and walk away. The game ends when you choose to leave such a gathering.”

After his Instagram Stories, Younes denied that he was shading Kourtney and that he wanted to be kept “far away” from her drama. “I always post quotes since years, all types of quotes,” he wrote.  “Stop attaching myself to people that are not part of my life anymore, it’s been two years let’s move on.” He continued, “No need for bad vibes.”

Keeping Up With the Kardashians airs Thursdays at 8 p.m. on E!. Here’s how to watch it for free.

Aaron Rodgers Is Considering Leaving the Green Bay Packers to Be With Shailene Woodley

The end of an era. There are rumors that Aaron Rodgers is leaving the Packers to be with Shailene Woodley three months after their engagement.

ESPN’s senior NFL analyst Adam Schefter reported on Thursday, April 29, that Rodgers is “so disgruntled” with the Green Bay Packers that he’s considering not returning to the team. “Reigning MVP Aaron Rodgers is so disgruntled with the Green Bay Packers that he has told some within the organization that he does not want to return to the team, league and team sources told ESPN on Thursday,” Schefter tweeted.

After the tweet, several news outlets reported that Rodgers was considering signing with the San Francisco 49ers or the Las Vegas Raiders after his exit from the Packers. Given that both San Francisco and Las Vegas are only a short flight to Los Angeles, where Woodley lives, many suspect that Rodgers’ mixed feelings about the Packers could be due to his fiancé

“From unimpeachable source: As of last night, Aaron Rodgers’ wish list was 49ers, Broncos, Raiders (not necessarily in that order). He wanted Packers to take the 49ers’ offer. Next move by Rodgers is TBD,” tweeted account ProFootball Talk.

https://twitter.com/ProFootballTalk/status/1387863372541083651?s=20

In April 2021, a source told HollywoodLife that Rodgers was also considering retiring from the NFL to host Jeopardy! full time. The football player was a guest host on the game show for two weeks in April after the death of longtime host Alex Trebek. “When Aaron is done with the NFL, he wants to continue doing commercials and TV,” an insider said. “And if Jeopardy! were to offer him the full-time gig of doing the show, he would highly consider retiring from the NFL to be the host.”

The source continued, “The producers of Jeopardy! just have to make the right offer, and Aaron would be the host in no time. He would jump at the opportunity. He is super competitive and would love one more Super Bowl, but Aaron is heading into another chapter in his life.”

In an interview on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in February, Woodley confirmed that she and Rodgers were engaged after less than a year of dating. “Yes, we are engaged, we are engaged,” she said to host Jimmy Fallon. “But for us it’s not new news, you know, so it’s kind of funny. Everybody right now is freaking out over it but we’re like, ‘Yeah, we’ve been engaged for a while.'” Woodley went on to admit that she doesn’t “know him as a football guy,” as she had never even watched a football game before dating the quarterback. “I know him as like the nerd who wants to host Jeopardy! That’s the dude I know. He just happens to also be very good at sports,” she said.

Duchess Camilla’s Son Just Revealed Whether She’ll Be Queen After Prince Charles Becomes King

As Queen Elizabeth II’s eventual abdication nears, royal followers wonder if Duchess Camilla will be queen after her husband, Prince Charles, is king. Charles, the Queen and Prince Philip’s eldest son, is next in line for the throne after his mother retires. But will his wife, Camilla Parker-Bowles, the Duchess of Cornwall, be a queen? It doesn’t look likely.

In an interview on with The Times on Thursday, April 29, Camilla’s son, Tom Parker-Bowles, revealed that he isn’t sure if his mother will be referred to as a queen after Prince Charles becomes king. “I honestly don’t know if Mum will be called queen,” he said. “That hasn’t been decided. There are a lot of interesting Sky documentaries about that I’m sure, but I honestly don’t know if that’s true.”

In a press release about Charles and Camilla’s engagement in 2005, Buckingham Palace confirmed that will be receive an HRH title and be referred to as the Princess Consort when Prince Charles succeeds his mother. “It is intended that Mrs. Parker Bowles should use the title HRH The Princess Consort when The Prince of Wales accedes to The Throne,” the statement read.

However, royal followers believe that plans have changed and that Camilla will now be the Queen Consort when Prince Charles is king. Though nothing has been confirmed by Buckingham Palace, the institution removed a question about whether Camilla will be queen on Charles’ official website years ago, which led many to believe that Camilla’s title will the Queen Consort when Charles ascends to the throne.

In his interview with The Times, Tom, who is Camilla’s son with ex-husband Andrew Parker-Bowles, reacted to the portrayal of his mother on The Crown season 4. “The Crown is beautifully filmed and beautifully acted but complete bollocks mostly,” he said. “I saw a bit with my dad and thought, ‘God, you’ve got him wrong,’ but I would say that, wouldn’t I?” He also gave his opinion on Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s drama with the royal family. “What can I say? Families are never easy, but they’ll work it out in the end,” he said. “I stay out of that. That’s nothing to do with me.”

Speculation about when the Queen will abdicate the throne sparked after the recent death of Prince Philip on April 9, 2021. A source told People at the time that the Queen doesn’t plan on retiring anytime soon, as Philip would’ve wanted her to continue her royal duties. “Her family will step up and be by her side, but she will carry on,” the royal insider said. “She understands that she has a job to do, and [Philip] would have wanted her to crack on. She did do so when he retired from public life.”

Snag Ariana Grande’s Exact Clear Bubble Ring For Just $60

Ariana Grande is a bona fide trendsetter. In fact, she may be the trendsetter. Before she hit the scene, I reserved ponytails for the gym and the beach exclusively; then, she taught me the art of the ponytail as a fancy flex. And I never looked back! People are always trying to steal Grande’s look—and while I wouldn’t go that far, I’m definitely guilty of buying things just because I’ve seen her rocking them. That’s why I can almost guarantee that Ariana’s BONBONWHIMS ring will be the new must-have accessory for her fans and fashion-lovers alike.

If you haven’t heard of BONBONWHIMS just yet, it’s time to up your accessory game. Founded by Clare Ngai, the jewelry brand is known for a myriad of color, statement-making pieces that err on the side of nostalgia-inspired whimsy. Their bubble rings are definitely a top-seller, so it’s no surprise Ms. Grande wanted to get in on the action.

That said, she’s not the brand’s only celeb fan. Kylie Jenner loves their Pop Drop Earring and Sofia Richie was spotted in the Ling Bling Ring, from which a percentage of profits are donated towards organizations working against Asian hate.

Instagram PhotoSource: Instagram

In the IG post above, Ari shows off in a cute polo top by Mirror Palais with underwire cropped right underneath her bust. She pairs the sexy  statement top with a white Prada shoulder bag, a stack of hoop and diamond earrings and the star of the show: the BONBONWHIMS Clear Rainbow Lucky Ring in Oval Spaceship. So cute!

The clear bubble shape reminds me so much of the kind of rings I wore in elementary school when I wanted to look ~fancy~. I love that they’re being brought back with a twist as we embrace maximalist style for 2021! And on the BONBONWHIMS site, shoppers can personalize their Rainbow Lucky Rings to feature a myriad of different stones.

Our mission at STYLECASTER is to bring style to the people, and we only feature products we think you’ll love as much as we do. Please note that if you purchase something by clicking on a link within this story, we may receive a small commission of the sale.

Ari went with the Oval Spaceship charm, but other options include your initial, an Emerald Gem, a Flower Gem, a Heart Gem or a Triple Heart Mix. Part of the fun of the brand’s approach is that you don’t get to choose your gem color, so every order is somewhat of a surprise! Don’t freak, though; all the options are cute, so you really can’t go wrong.

Like I said before, Grande knows how to elevate a trend from “on the rise” to “absolutely everywhere,” so it’s safe to say BONBONWHIMS rings will be popping up on even more celebs in the next few months. Make sure to snag one of your own before summer—what’s better than rocking an Ari-approved accessory and supporting a great AAPI-owned small business in the process? Consider this ring this season’s top jewelry must-have.

Waterproof Picnic Blankets That’ll Keep You Dry & Comfy

Gathering together an Insta-worthy charcuterie spread and a few bottles of rosé for an elaborate picnic is always fun. You need to make sure that you’ve got a reliable and chic blanket on hand, though. That stylish throw that you have on your couch isn’t going to cut it as a picnic blanket. Imagine if a drink spills or the grass is damp. That throw will absorb that liquid, and you’ll be sitting your butt on a wet blanket. You don’t want your new dress to get wet. That feeling is the worst. Plus, while your throw is cozy to cuddle up with on cold nights, it’ll be too thin to sit on. You’ll feel every stick, tree root and bit of uneven ground. That’s why you should get one of the best waterproof picnic blankets.

When you think of things that are waterproof, a slick tarp that smells like plastic probably comes to mind. Luckily for you, these picnic blankets don’t even look waterproof. They’re made with comfy fabrics with vivid prints, so you can make a stylish statement while keeping your butt dry. Check out our top picks below.

Zara Has The Perfect Dupe For Kamala Harris’ Cream Prabal Gurung Suit

President Joe Biden’s first-ever joint-session meeting with Congress, on the 99th day of his presidency, was also the first time two women had ever sat behind a president in the roles of Vice President and Speaker of The House. To celebrate yet another landmark moment in her career, of course VP Kamala Harris wore a suit that could only be described in one word: Perfection. And boy, do I have all the details on her look!

Joe Biden’s presidency has ticked a lot ‘firsts’ since the inauguration back in January, but Kamala Harris being the first woman (and the first woman of color!) to serve as Vice President is chief among them in my eyes, and so many Americans agree. Putting her political prowess aside for just a moment, I also have been seriously inspired by Harris’ fashion choices so far—and last night’s joint congress session was no different. Harris stunned in a cream-colored suit designed by none other than Prabal Gurung.

Gurung, a Nepali immigrant to America who has dressed the likes of Michelle Obama in the past, also dressed Vice President Harris on her first day in office back in January. “Watching the Joint Session Congress and seeing our Vice President in all her poise and grace – I am reminded of the potential this country has,” Gurung said in one of many posts on Instagram highlighting the historic moment. I’m not crying, you’re crying!

Harris has made a point to wear predominately designers of color during her first 100 days in office. I mean, who could forget the stunning purple suit by Christopher John Rogers that she wore on Inauguration Day, or the camel Pyer Moss coat that she wore to a Covid-19 memorial that same weekend? She can do no wrong!

If you want to incorporate Harris’ most recent look into your own wardrobe for spring 2021, head to Zara for a (much more) affordable version. Now you don’t have to have access to top-line designers in order to look like you do! It’s a pretty damn good dupe of the Prabal one she wore—and the pants and the blazer cost less than $100 apiece.

Read on to shop and don’t forget to cite our VP as your style inspo.

Straight Cut Blazer with Pockets + Full Length Pants

This Zara suit is giving me major, “I’m the first woman VP and I look good doing it” energy. Specific, but true! The Straight Cut Blazer with Pockets is so classic and you could also dress down the Full Length pants by wearing them with a white tank and a pair of sneakers.

The Best ‘Law & Order’ Gifts For Fans Who Have Memorized the ‘SVU’ Monologue by Heart

If you’ve been following Detective Olivia Benson for the past two decades, you may want to know what Law and Order TV show gifts are out there to give to yourself or other SVU superfans in your life.

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, a spinoff of Law & Order, premiered on NBC in September 1999. The show followed Detective Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay) and Detective Elliot Stabler (Christopher Meloni) as they worked in the Special Victims Unit in a fictionalized version of the New York City Police Department. Meloni starred on the series for 12 seasons until he left in May 2011. Hargitay remains on the series.

Since its premiere, Law & Order: SVU has aired for more than 20 seasons and won more than 30 Emmys, including one for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for Hargitay in 2006. (She became the first main cast member from any Law & Order show to win an Emmy.)

In an interview with Parade in 2019, Hargitay opened up about why she thinks Law & Order: SVU has been on the air for so long. “SVU resonates because it’s a path to healing and a path to survivorship,” she said at the time. “Each week, Olivia Benson and the team depict an environment of compassion, sympathy and justice, providing hope to those who experience shame and isolation caused by sexual violence. The conversations that the show inspires have brought a greater awareness and understanding of the issues. And every disclosure is a chance to show that a victim is to be believed.”

However, with so many seasons on the same show, there are bound to be details that Hargitay has forgotten about. In an interview on Late Night With Seth Meyers in 2019, Hargitay revealed that she forgot the storylines of one of her episodes while watching a rerun on TV. “However, about a month ago, I did and I stopped. And it was so old, and I’m like, ‘I don’t remember that,'” she said at the time. “And I said, ‘Oh, I’ll just watch and remember what episode it was.’ And I sat there, watching and watching. Half-hour went by, got completely engrossed in the show. Didn’t remember a thing. Didn’t even know it was me! Like, ‘This is a good show!’ But it was so sad, because I could not remember. And then I tried to remember, and I just couldn’t.”

Of course, Law & Order: SVU superfans know each episode and case by heart. If that viewer is you (or someone you know) read on for the best Law and Order TV show gifts to treat yourself or another SVU superfan with.
