On Tuesday, Tallulah Willis and Dillon Buss announced that they are getting hitched. Willis, the youngest daughter of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore and the founder of fashion brand Wyllis, made the announcement via Instagram, captioning candid photos of the backyard engagement: “With absolute most certainty.”

“I can finally call you my fiancée,” Buss wrote on a post of his own. “Love you forever Buuski Lu, you are my best friend.” (Buuski is Willis’ childhood nickname.)

Then came a close-up photo of the stunning ring. For the occasion, Buss, a film director, sought out Brooklyn-based jeweler Karina Noel who custom made the design — an emerald-cut, solitaire diamond on a yellow gold band. “Making this work of art was a true honor,” Noel said on Instagram stories.

According to Kimberly Abruzzo, a gemologist at Rare Carat, the diamond appears to be approximately five to six carats. “Emerald cuts require high clarity, so you can be assured this is a very clean stone,” Abruzzo says. As for whether Willis approved of his pick, her caption on the video of the ring says it all: “HANDS STILL SHAKIN’ — MOMS SPAGHETTI — I’m FIANCÉNCHED.” 

Willis joins a long list of celebrities with classic solitaire stones on their ring fingers, including Emily In Paris actress Lily Collins and model Jasmine Tookes. In fact, according to Shelley Brown, The Knot’s senior fashion and beauty editor, “solitaire settings with one — usually very large — diamond” are a big 2021 engagement ring trend. “The diamond shape may vary, but the settings tend to be very clean, without a lot of intricate detail,” she told Refinery29 in December. 

Willis’ engagement ring is indeed minimal and understated. Or, at least, the band and timeless setting are. The massive diamond at the center, however, has maximum effect.

On Wednesday, the brand responsible for 2020’s most talked-about fashion item — the Nap dress — made its bridal debut with a 21-piece collection. And yes, it includes Nap dresses. For the Bridal Collection, Hill House Home combined existing favorites, like the Athena Nap Dress, the Belle Bow, and the Jewel Jammie pajama set (most recently worn by Emma’s Anya Taylor-Joy) with never-before-seen items, including customizable ring pillows and party kits — which include the Jewel Jammies, a silk pillowcase, and the Noor Headband — for the bride and their bridesmaids. Essentially, the brand thought of everything a bride could need, starting from the second they get engaged up until the wedding night. 

From the something blue — we’d suggest the Noor headband for that — to the way you ask all your bridesmaids to be your bridesmaids — the “Be My Bridesmaid?” silk kit is your best bet — the Bridal Collection was designed to be there for all of the “little moments that surround the big day,” according to a press release. But who says it belongs only in the little moments? The Dolly Robe, which is made from silk and includes delicate feather details, could just as easily be the dress. In fact, given the rise in minimonies since the pandemic, something more casual almost feels more appropriate for a trip down the aisle than a big, poofy dress. Plus, you can rewear it. 

The fact that the entire collection tops off at $335 is simply the icing on top of your four-tier wedding cake. Check out the campaign, shot by photographer Emma Craft, and shop the just-launched Bridal Collection, ahead.

On Monday, Katie Holmes was spotted running (literally) through New York City while filming a scene for her upcoming movie, The Watergate Girl. While the outfit — an orange-and-black knit dress from Chloé — was likely selected by the film’s costume designer, it looked pulled from the actress’ closet, especially when it came to her footwear: a pair of Gucci loafers. Adding a trend-forward spin on the look, Holmes wore the shoes with a pair of crew socks, a popular style hack among the fashion crowd. 

The socks-with-loafers trend became popular (again) in fall of 2019, when Fashion Month’s street style stars began adorning their platform and lug-soled loafers with sporty and patterned socks, alike. Since, the look has become a fashion staple, popping up regularly on Instagram and TikTok. In fact, Holmes isn’t even the only celebrity to wear the socks-with-loafers duo this week: A day earlier, fellow actress and street style star Chloë Sevigny was also spotted wearing socks with loafers, styling hers with a royal blue sweat short set and a navy blue blazer. 

Further solidifying her role on our spring style mood board, Holmes was seen wearing another favorite shoe style on Monday: UGG boots. Off-set, the actress appeared in a pair of the SoCal brand’s Mini Bailey Button II boots in chestnut, which she paired with a black, midi-length skirt and a flowy, floral blouse. 

Suffice to say, after running on set in Gucci loafers all day — no matter how comfy the accompanying socks are — the only remedy is a pair of UGGs. Good thing they’re in style again.

After what felt like forever, the filming for Emily In Paris Season 2 is underway. On Monday, photos from the set of the show’s forthcoming season were released, and just like its debut, this one’s already full of over-the-top style choices. For the hit series’ sophomore season, the titular Emily Cooper (Lily Collins) and her crew appear to have ditched the City of Lights for Villefranche-sur-Mer, a beach town near Nice in the French Riviera. Naturally, the change in locale called for a more beach-appropriate wardrobe. 

Having left her Audrey Hepburn-inspired Christian Siriano dress (top photo) at home in Paris, Emily’s summer persona looks to be much more relaxed, with photos from the set showing the protagonist wearing high-waisted bikinis, oversized sunglasses, and silk scarves tied around her head. A pool scene sees Emily in a teal-blue bikini with a patterned robe and kitten heel sandals. While visiting the town’s city center, she wears a retro-esque scarf-sunglasses look with a baby blue mini dress, a Mod trench coat, and a box-shaped purse. 

Emily’s affinity for bold prints and logos hasn’t completely vanished, though. Other photos from the set show the character wearing a black-and-white patterned bucket hat, a polka dot-and-floral tiered dress, and a graphic handbag — yes, all together. After all, it wouldn’t be Emily In Paris without some head-turning looks from the lead. 

As we wait to see more of Emily’s Riviera wardrobe, see a sneak peek here.

Two years ago, Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner surprised the world by ditching the Billboard Music Awards early to get hitched in a Las Vegas wedding chapel. Given that, at the time, the only way for us to view the evening’s events was in the form of blurry Instagram stories shot by their witness, Diplo, we’ve longed for the opportunity to find out more about the couple’s official wedding, including details about her white bridal jumpsuit. (Their second wedding was much more publicized, with the ceremony taking place in a villa in Provence, France and the bride wearing a custom Louis Vuitton gown.) Now, on the two-year anniversary of the Vegas ceremony, Turner has finally provided us with both.

On Sunday, the Game of Thrones star posted a slideshow of photos from her wedding night, captioning the post: “Happy 2 year Vegas Wedding anniversary to this big ol hunk of man meat,” referring to Jonas. Included in the slideshow was an image of the couple swimming fully clothed after the ceremony; one of Turner, Priyanka Chopra, and Danielle Jonas, Kevin Jonas’ wife, dancing in bath robes with a half-naked Diplo behind them; and a handful of Turner and Jonas posing together at the wedding chapel. The latter selection gave us the up-close-and-personal look at the bride’s fall ‘19 Bevza jumpsuit, which had a silk camisole top with a teddy-like bodice and flowing pant legs.

As shown in the photos, Turner paired the jumpsuit with a white headband and a detachable veil, along with gold, heeled sandals from Loeffler Randall, which are still available. Adding a bit of Vegas flair to the ensemble, she and Jonas wore matching pink, ‘70s style sunglasses.

Picture this: It’s 2003, The Simple Life just aired its debut season, and Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie are wearing trucker hats. Your crush, Ashton Kutcher, was just spotted courtside at the Lakers game wearing one, too. Now you want one, specifically from Von Dutch. A short while after, The New York Times deems them “not cool.” Defeated, you put the cap in a box in the back of your closet, where it has likely stayed for the past 15-plus years.

Cut to 2021. Visible thongs, platform flip flops, candy rings, and low-rise jeans are all gearing for a comeback. Y2K trends are, to the dissent of many who grew up in the aughts, all the rage. So naturally, the headgear beloved by ‘00s A-listers is also making its way back into fashion’s good graces.

In April, Bella Hadid was spotted wearing low rise, baggy jeans with retro sneakers and a trucker hat while on vacation in Miami. Later in the month, Gigi Hadid followed suit, pairing her trucker hat — a custom style that says, “Gigi’s 26th on Bond St. Best Grilled Cheese In Manhattan,” on the front in honor of the model’s recent birthday party, which involved a grilled cheese food truck — with a sweatsuit and tall UGG boots. Rihanna, too, debuted a trucker hat recently, styling her Esso hat with an Adidas tracksuit, heeled Fenty flip flops, and a bowler bag from Prada’s collaboration with Adidas, while Gwen Stefani wore one to announce her engagement. 

If right about now you wish that you didn’t part with your Von Dutch trucker hat, you can still participate in the trend: The brand just reissued many of their early aughts styles, making the second coming of the hat style inevitable. According to Ed Goldman, the general manager of Von Dutch, when the brand started to notice a resurgence of other ‘00s-era trends, they saw an opportunity for a comeback. “Our brand is taking advantage of the shift by expanding our offerings with new, elevated styles, [while] staying true to the staples that made us so popular,” Goldman tells Refinery29. In its fall ‘21 collection, the brand included other ‘00s fashion mainstays like bowler bags, low-rise flare jeans, and crop tops with decals. Goldman says the uptick in popularity this year has been so significant that it’s easily comparable to the success the brand saw in the ‘00s. “The only difference is which celebrities and consumers we see wearing [our brand],” he says. 

And just like in their original heyday, trucker hats aren’t only for the rich and famous. They’re a huge hit on TikTok, too. On the Gen Z platform, #TruckerHats has 1.4 million views and is loaded with videos of users ranking their favorite “ugly” fashion trends, including trucker hats, and showing off their next-gen Von Dutch styles.  

Maybe it’s just the cyclical nature of trends, combined with Gen Z’s obsession with styles from their birth years, that’s allowed for a Y2K fashion renaissance. That, or it’s rooted in the fact that so many people spent this year in their childhood homes, surrounded by their teenage belongings. Either way, trucker hats are back — and “that’s hot.”

This week, a special package from Justin Bieber arrived on Victoria Beckham’s doorstep. Inside, was a pair of lilac clogs from the recent collaboration between Drew House (Bieber’s fashion brand) and Crocs. “Will I be wearing lilac Crocs?” the fashion designer asked her 28.9 million followers while unveiling the gift. 57 percent said no. Beckham agreed: “Well that was close! I think I’d rather die, but thank you anyway, Justin Bieber.” 

While we’re on the side of the 43 percent of people who said yes, we can’t say we’re surprised by Beckham’s harsh response. In 2008, she famously told GMTV that she “can’t concentrate in flats,” and avoids the gym because she can’t bear to wear sneakers. (When she threw the first pitch at a Dodgers game in 2007, her sneakers had a wedge heel.) While the designer has since embraced flats, judging by this response, she’s not changing her mind about rubber clogs anytime soon. That’s too bad.

While Posh, like Naomi Campbell, may not be a fan of Crocs, high fashion has welcomed the shoes with open arms in recent years. In 2017, the brand teamed up with Christopher Kane, who sent his iteration of the controversial style down the runway at the brand’s spring runway show. Spring ‘18 saw additional Croc appearances, with pairs showing up again at Christopher Kane and then at Balenciaga. More recently, Questlove arrived at the 2021 Oscars wearing a pair of gold Crocs, which he paired with a navy blue suit, making a case for wearing the style on the red carpet.

If you ask us, Beckham should try them on before she judges Bieber’s preferred choice of footwear. They might not be the most attractive shoes by conventional standards, but, as anyone who has managed to get a pair from the brand’s sold-out collaborations with House of Drew and Bad Bunny would tell her, they are the ultimate comfort shoe.

On Wednesday, President Joe Biden made his first address to a joint session of Congress, starting with, “Madame Vice President and Madame Speaker.” There to witness the historic event was Dr. Jill Biden, who of course, dressed for the occasion in a custom-made, floral dress by New York designer Gabriela Hearst. According to the brand, the navy dress featured embroidered flowers from every U.S. state and territory. 

Following the session, which was held on the eve of President Biden’s 100th day in office, Hearst posted photos of Dr. Biden on her Instagram. In the caption, she explained that the dress was originally a sample, used to perfect the fit of the one Dr. Biden wore on the evening of Inauguration Day. (For the actual Inauguration ceremony, she wore a blue, Swarovski crystal-covered dress and coat by Markarian.) Rather than allow the darker version of the dress to go to waste, the First Lady requested to salvage it for another occasion. “Double repurposed,” wrote Hearst. “New is not always better.”

Her white Inauguration night dress featured a silk-organza neck and sleeves that were similarly covered in embroidered flowers from every U.S. state and territory. At the time, the designer posted on Instagram, explaining the meaning behind the floral arrangement: “The message of Unity is the main inspiration for the creation of the ensemble.” Inside her coat, a quote from Benjamin Franklin was stitched by hand that read: “Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.”

Vice President Kamala Harris and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi also wore memorable looks. For the occasion, Vice President Harris wore a Prabal Gurung suit in a petal pink color, with an ivory-colored silk camisole underneath. Opting for her signature look, she wore a pearl necklace with the ensemble — this time selecting a collar-like style made of yellow gold. Speaker Pelosi followed Biden’s lead, wearing a floral blue blazer with a matching face mask and trousers.

We’re one step closer to actually getting our hands on pieces from Target’s collaboration with Christopher John Rogers, ALEXIS, and RIXO. On Thursday, the retailer released a full lookbook for its spring Designer Dress Collection, which was announced last week and met with unparalleled excitement. 

“The initial response has been the most rewarding part,” Rogers said during a press preview of the 70-piece collection. “I got the most messages on Instagram that I’ve ever gotten in one day.” And that was when only a handful of images of the 70-piece collection had been released. From ALEXIS, expect to find summer-ready cutouts, bright hues, and delicate embroidery, just like those found in Alexis Barbara Isaias’ namesake brand. Rogers brought his signature voluminous and artful shapes, elevating the silhouettes further with bold patterns and vibrant colors. Meanwhile, RIXO’s Orlagh McCloskey and Henrietta Rix translated their printed occasion dresses into more casual minis and midis covered in polka dots, check prints, and florals. Excited yet? Us too. 

Start selecting which dresses — all available in sizes XXS to 4X and under $60 — you want to purchase come May 16 by clicking through the lookbook ahead. If the number of DMs in Rogers’ Instagram inbox is any indication, you won’t have time to waste on launch day.
