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…

You’ve broken in your favorite pair of running shoes and prepped your fanny pack. But when it comes to running a marathon, there are old wives’ tales abound. Should you be carboloading the night before by eating a giant bowl of plain pasta? Sit in an ice bath? We went straight to the experts to get advice so you can have your best run ever—and maybe even set a new PR.Fuel upHere’s one rumor that’s confirmed: Focusing on carbs is real. “Start increasing your carbohydrate intake two to three days before the big event,” says trainer and fellow marathon runner…

Move over, lingerie dressing. As the holiday season draws near, another major trend is continuing to build momentum — and now it’s being endorsed by pop music royalty. Fringe has been popping up all over for the past year, from high-fashion runways to the collections of your favorite accessible brands. Part of the larger Fall/Winter theme of richly tactile surfaces and movement, this ‘70s staple now takes a more opulent form, and Beyoncé’s hula-inspired fringe skirt from Jay-Z’s Los Angeles concert is the ultimate example. The Cécred founder, who also graced the cover of i-D this week, turned up to…

When it comes to Halloween, nobody does a coordinated friends costume like Benito Skinner and Mary Beth Barone.In recent years, the two comedians, actors, and Ride podcast co-hosts—who are also real-life BFFs—have nailed the storied art of incredibly niche, highly specific, social media brainrot Halloween costumes. In 2021, they paid homage to Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian; In 2023, they dressed up as Kylie Jenner and the Schiaparelli lion. What a roar! This year, they even recreated the iconic exchange between Dakota Johnson and Ellen DeGeneres (on her daytime talk show Ellen) in which Johnson quipped, “That’s not the truth,…

Researchers from Endogene.bio at the Hospital Clinic in Barcelona are also studying diagnostic approaches for endometriosis using menstrual blood samples; teams at Eth Zurich, a renowned public research university in Switzerland, have developed a diagnostic menstrual pad that’s still in early clinical testing but will theoretically be able to record markers that can indicate cancer, endometriosis, and general inflammation; and last year saw the establishment of the Fairbairn Menstruation Science Fund at MIT, which will be devoted to using menstrual blood to diagnose endometriosis and other gynecological disorders as well as chronic systemic inflammatory diseases that more commonly impact women.While…

Kardashian has a long, dappled history with shorter hair. Back in 2015, she debuted a textured lob for Kanye West’s first Yeezy show, before embracing a sharper, angled shoulder-length cut in 2016. By 2018, she had gone shorter still, experimenting with razor-sharp blunt bobs that barely grazed her shoulders. In 2023, she revamped the look with a jaw-skimming cut. And earlier this year, she arrived at the Vanity Fair Oscars party with a tousled, collarbone-length clavi-cut, before trying out an icy-blonde chin-length bob over the summer. Kim Kardashian always seems to find her way back to the short and sleek.And…
