As we move into the cooler months, warmer, richer hair colors often make their routine entrance. These shades feel all warm and cozy like they’re making up for the biting breeze. This season, though, Serena Williams is embracing the temperature drop with an icy platinum-blonde color paired against minimal brown roots—and the switch up matches the season’s chilly energy.Getty ImagesWilliams wore the frosty hue to the first-annual AirBnb Gala on October 28th in Los-Angeles, (if you’re wondering why AirBnb threw a black tie gala, as we were, it was for the company’s nonprofit arm) and saw attendees from Charlize Theron…

For example, for blue eyes look to “bronze, copper, warm browns, terracotta, and soft oranges,” says Micol. For green eyes, consider “plum, burgundy, maroon, wine, and deep purple tones.” Hazel eyes look great with “olive green, plum, magenta, and rich purples to emphasise their different flecks of color,” while for brown eyes, “royal blue, navy, sapphire, cool-toned purples, and icy metallics create beautiful contrast.”“It’s less about following one specific makeup look and more about strategically choosing colors that enhance your eyes,” Micol says.As for how to wear your chosen shade, “soft, cozy textures and blurred cream eyeshadows that melt into…

Next, dancers-turned-emcees James Whiteside and Thomas Forster, sporting impish horns and a divine halo, respectively, with their tuxedos, took the stage to guide the audience through a program of enchanted forests and haunted dreams. The pair sprinkled humor and ballet trivia throughout the evening’s nine classical selections, all loosely tied to the fantastical theme. “We have spirits, fairies, sorcerers, and swan women,” said Whiteside. “So, a totally normal night at ABT,” quipped Forster.The program opened with Daniel Camargo in the company premiere of Frederick Ashton’s Dance of the Blessed Spirits, a haunting solo depicting Orpheus yearning for his lost Eurydice.…

Change is both exciting and scary. My reluctance about this computer conversion goes beyond having to learn new shortcuts. It seems to me now that what is intuitive to Mac users isn’t to me.Functionality is one thing; computer choice has been linked to personality types since a series of brilliant Apple “I’m a Mac, I’m a PC” commercials ran in the ’00s. They starred cool dude Jason Long as a Mac and the more formal John Hodgman as a PC. I have always been resistant to this dichotomy (although as one commenter observed, the opposite types were also friends). It’s…

In the Americas, Michael Kors revenues fell 11% to $405 million, impacted by inventory delays as well as Capri’s planned reduction in markdowns and promotional activity, CFO Tyler Reddien said on Friday. Jimmy Choo revenues were up 24% to $42 million in the region.

Ultimately it’s the owners’ generous hospitality, performed just as well by their amiable house team, that drives the ethos of La Réserve Firenze. Checking in here feels like staying with kind and worldly friends, or—because the Marcianos can’t feasibly tag along for every guest’s long Florentine weekend—borrowing their palazzo and their staff with, as Olivia put it, “access to the people, places, and experiences that make Florence special to us.”Grég and Olivia’s deep knowledge and connections unlock another side of the city, one that, as I once believed, you could easily cross off a list after a few tourist-trap stops.…

The World Series’ conclusion this week (congrats to the Milwaukee Brewers) is cause for reflection on the sport’s enduring fashion import, the ever-versatile baseball cap. Without exaggeration, no single other sports accessory has become such a permanent fixture of everyday style. Major League Baseball team caps themselves–for the New York Yankees and LA Dodgers, primarily–often signal affiliation with a particular metropolitan sensibility, rather than the team, and thus have broad application. You could say baseball caps are the epitome of normcore. But when paired with more elevated items–a slick office-ready look or otherwise un-sporty dress–they can become a different thing…

There’s a precise formula for what separates the best skin-tightening creams from those that lag (or shall we say sag) in delivering results—and it involves a mix of established and emerging anti-aging ingredients.According to board-certified dermatologist Nicole Lee, MD, the skin-tightening category has come a long way. “For decades, it was built on retinoids and basic peptides, ingredients that work by driving collagen synthesis and cellular turnover, and that still form the backbone of any credible firming product,” she says. The 2026 landscape looks somewhat different. “Now we’re seeing regenerative ingredients like growth factors, exosomes, and biomimetic peptides push the…
