While shopping at the Harbor Lifestyle mall in Mérida, Mexico this year, 24-year-old hospitality student Mascha Rudolph, did a double-take. The store’s big logo, all-white interior, and enormous size all screamed Forever 21, but she could have sworn the fast fashion retailer had shuttered all of its shops years ago.

The student from Germany, who’s completing a year abroad in Latin America, stepped inside and was immediately transported back to her teens, when she shopped at Forever 21, a store known for basics like t-shirts as well as “going out tops,” festival outfits, and clubbing apparel. Nowadays, Rudolph normally eschews fast fashion, but the thrift stores and sustainable brands she prefers are hard to come by in Mexico so she bought a baby-blue romper and imitation gold necklace during her visit. The store “looked the same as 10 years ago,” she says. “It felt very familiar.”

The Fall Amazon Prime Day event runs today and tomorrow and has so many great pieces to get you on track for fall, whether in fashion trends, beauty must-haves, home finds and more. I’ll be sharing it some of my favorites from the Prime Event on my IG and stories, plus styling ideas, but also wanted to start off sharing some of the pieces I already have and love that will be on major sale. A lot of these pieces sold out early last year so I would pull the trigger quick to make sure you get your size.

Everyone probably has a shacket in their fall line up by now, but this faux leather shacket is on a whole new level. It’s such an easy way to bring a new texture into even the simplest look, like leggings or denim.  Wearing a size L here for an oversized fit.

From her music to her style, Avril Lavigne’s authority as the pop–punk queen has never been stronger. Since releasing her seventh studio album, “Love Sux,” in February, the “Complicated” singer has appeared in music videos alongside Willow and Machine Gun Kelly and performed on stage with Olivia Rodrigo, looking like a badass during every performance.

On Sept. 25, Lavigne performed her single “Bite Me” at the Rock the Runway: Shein For All event showcasing the brand’s fall/winter 2022 collections. As the Romwe headliner, Lavigne brought her rock-star style to the stage, wearing a lace-up bodysuit, a ripped cropped sweater, cutout pants, and a pair of buckle-up wedge boots.

Pondering of buying clothes on-line? Think about cost options and ready-made or partially stitched. This is a evaluation of three websites you should purchase clothing from.

Yoox is likely one of the main multi-brand trend and design retailers online. Of all of the retailers I’ve reviewed, Yoox in all probability has one of many largest selections of hard-to-discover items from among the most prestigious designers. You could easily spend hours browsing by the stock on their web site (and so they have an amazing iPad app as nicely).

Leave your buying list at home! Drift. Have enjoyable trying and appreciating this nation’s ethnic crafts. Benefit from the coloration and vibrancy of the local markets and market squares. Take pictures and purchase postcards; gather teabags, soup packets, and chocolate bars. Preserve a journey diary; use enterprise cards as reminders of where you have been, what you’ve eaten and what pleases you …

September is my favorite month of the year. It’s not only the start of la rentrée, akin to the French new year, but it’s also when I celebrate my birthday. Celebrating birthdays has never been a favorite thing of mine to do, but the older I get, the more I realize how fragile life is, and I figure, why not celebrate being alive? Many people don’t get the chance to celebrate another year of life, so it’s important to remember to practice gratitude on one’s birthday.

Stylish Winter Layering to Stay Warm

Of course, how long a layered look will keep you comfortable temperature wise depends on the weather. As a result, the clothing pieces and their material will differ. However, the overall concept of layering is to create several thin layers of still air. Thin air layers, namely, increase the insulation of your outfit. Consequently, layering is more than just for style.

In addition, relative humidity, wind and temperature matter. You have to use different material to

Any fashion girlie will tell you: International brands are where its at. Iconic fashion houses like Gucci, Prada, Chanel and more are still trailblazers to this day, while more affordable options like Zara, Mango and Ganni are leveling up their offerings by staying even more on top of friends (and creating new ones!). From the viral green Zara dress that made waves over the summer to Ganni’s signature oversized collar look, it’s easier than ever to stand out and find your own unique sense of fashion on a budget.
