The idea that to be bougie, an outfit has to cost a lot is totally untrue - and the pieces included in this roundup are proof. From stunning lingerie to luxe loungewear, and plenty of pieces you can dress up for after-hours events, everything you'll find here looks like it ought to cost a lot more than it does. Scroll on to shop dozens of bougie outfits that look great on everyone, and, best of all, won't break the bank.
These images mark a series of firsts: my first time shooting on colour film, and my first collaboration with Ella Snyder. There was a certain electricity in that unfamiliarity, where every frame became a small act of trust, of quiet listening to light, shadow, and gesture. Shooting on film slowed us down, inviting presence and tenderness. These are more than portraits, they're records of a beginning, and of how art can emerge when two people meet the unknown together.
Does your wardrobe include a half-zip jumper and a flannel shirt? Is your fantasy car a vintage Land Rover Defender? Do you know a buff Cochin from a bantam hen? If the answer is yes, you may just be one of the style icons of the season: rich autumn dad. The leader of this new style pack, known among fashion watchers as the Rads, is David Beckham, who this week was unveiled as guest editor of Country Life magazine.
I was into American and French cinema, and American music and jazz since I was really young, he says. This led him to attend a high school that had an art program, where creativity led him to materialize his passion for the look of the stars of classic American films. In 2001, Yamamoto-san started Tailor Caid, and in February of 2002, the tailor shop opened its doors to immediate clients and acclaim.
Decked out in holiday decorations, the shop will feature a rotating mix of products across fashion, accessories, home, beauty and kids' products, with options to put a personalized touch on your purchases. We envisioned The Gift Shop at The Corner as a year-round destination for discovery and a place where gifting becomes immersive, expressive, and personal, said Olivia Kim, SVP of Creative at Nordstrom. Through curated brand collaborations and authentic storytelling, we're celebrating the joy of giving in all its forms.
Confession: I basically live in loungewear. Matching sets remove the daily challenge of having to coordinate an outfit and are comfortable for a day of lounging or working from home. Plus, when I attend a workout class or go for a walk, I don't need to change, which is yet another perk of my favorite style. My closet is packed with loungewear sets I've had for years, but it is desperately in need of a refresh.
A new exhibition at Paris' Musée des Arts Décoratifs celebrates the movement's centenary, while showcasing its continued relevance today. Spread across three floors, the more than 1,000 pieces on show span from the elaborate - think embroidered silk evening dresses by Madeleine Vionnet and Frantz Jouradin and glass and silver creations by René Lalique - to the everyday, such as cups and saucers, coffee pots, and even a toaster, a result of departments stores putting the Art Deco style into mass production.

As far as hiking movers and shakers go, Merrell and Gramicci are birds of a feather; both brands have been playing in the outdoor space for decades now - founded less than a year apart, in 1981 and 1982, respectively - with an emphasis on performance and a catalogue of cult styles that have been long since fully embraced by gearhead aficionados and gorpcore newbies alike.
According to Vestiaire Collective's resale report with BCG, released earlier this month, the secondhand fashion market is growing by 10% yearly, three times faster than the firsthand market. It's currently valued between $210 and $220 billion and is estimated to reach $360 billion by 2030, accounting for 10% of global fashion and luxury sales. Bag-specific stats are even more impressive, as preloved bags make up 66% of U.S. closets across generations.
Halle Berry has always been down to experiment with her style. While the " naked dressing" trend has only started dominating red carpets and A-lister events recently, the Catwoman actress has been sporting its essentials - sheer designs, see-through panels, and bra tops - for much longer. Suffice to say, Berry has come a long way from wearing her prom dress at the 1986 Miss World pageant.
I've always loved playing dress-up. Give me a costume and a reason to wear it, and I'm in my happy place. That's probably why Halloween is my favorite holiday. It's the one time of year when pretending to be someone or something else isn't just acceptable, it's encouraged. One of my favorite costumes goes back to preschool: a butterfly my Aunt Cindy made from scratch with canvas fabric, sewing skills, and spray paint.
Kim Kardashian loves hair. Last week, she practically broke the internet for the nth time in her career by launching the SKIMS "Ultimate Bush" panty (read: a merkin) in several colorways and hair textures. It's the most shocking product her brand has launched, trumping her faux nipple bras and faux nipple piercing bras. Still, the drop sold out within hours. If there's anything to be gleaned from this launch, it's that Kardashian can sell anything - or that people are really into hairy undies.
Before getting into this story, I need to make one thing clear: I don't own a watch. It's not because I dislike them or because I'm a member of Gen Z who can't read analog. I'm just a 29-year-old millennial who relies on my phone a little too much - time-telling included. On Sunday, though, I had the urge to change that.
When clothes go "viral," I always take it with a grain of salt. To me, the implication is that the latest item being slapped with the label is going to be a short-lived fad. It's almost a guarantee that it'll be part of a novelty "-core" that society will move on from in a few months once the next social media driven clothing obsession envelops us.
"I had Brooklyn. I moved to Manchester, which is where David was living and playing for Manchester United. And by this point, he is on the first team; he's a big star," Beckham told podcast host Alex Cooper. "And it was quite the transition for me because I was so happy to be with David, to have a baby. I felt so blessed, but I felt a bit lost as well."
"The longer the staplewhich literally refers to how long the individual cotton fibers arethe smoother the feel," says Amy Hoban, chief creative officer at Parachute. "Shorter fibers are more likely to break and feel nubbly, which makes for a rougher, less durable sheet. Long-staple cotton produces fabric that's softer and more resistant to pilling and wear over time."
Due to market dynamics in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland, we shared with our team today that we are proposing to close all company-operated Gap Specialty and Gap Outlet stores in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland in a phased manner from the end of August through the end of September 2021. We are thoughtfully moving through the consultation process with our European team, and we will provide support and transition assistance for our colleagues as we look to wind down stores.
Like clockwork, when winter weather comes around, we tell you to put on your Blundstones. When you get those blustery fall nor'easters, those Chicago winters, and any random day in the Pacific Northwest, we'll always tell you to turn to Blundstone. In fact, I really don't say that much about the Tasmanian boot company in our style guides because it's menswear knowledge 101. You have to live under a rock to not know about Blundstone.
Chocolate brown is everywhere this season, and it's easy to see why. It's a softer alternative to black that still feels versatile and effortless to mix and match. The hue exudes quiet luxury while remaining a quintessential fall color. The Dolce Vita Serina sneaker hits every trend-chocolate brown, suede, and a flat sole-making it the season's must-have shoe. If you're looking for something more budget-friendly,
"Fantasy Gifts are where creativity meets luxury, and they capture the essence of what makes the holidays so special at Neiman Marcus," said Emily Essner, President & Chief Commercial Officer of Saks Global. "Each year, Fantasy Gifts allow us to dream bigger with our talented brand partners, surprise our customers in extraordinary ways, and bring a little magic to the season."
During a month in which hauntings and ghastly cosutmes are a ubiquitous sight, Brandon Morris presents a new body of work that taps into a shared sense of unease. The New York-based artist makes his Paris debut with Tissu Expansé, a collection of five fiberglass and resin gowns that appear as though they've come to life. Constructed in pale blue, the spectral works are part of Morris' Ghost Dresses, a series that stitches together fashion and sculpture through garments that materialize without a body.
No one wants to feel stuffed into stiff jeans while 30,000 feet in the air. But not all denim is inconvenient for travel, and the right pair of jeans can be just as cozy as your favorite travel pants while looking ten times more stylish. Think soft fabrics, roomy silhouettes, and just enough stretch to handle both a red-eye and a Monday morning meeting.
Cartier's share of the total purchases by Gen Z on Chrono24 rose from 1.7% to 6.8% over a seven-year period as of the first half of 2025, according to the report. That share outpaces the brand's overall growth on the site during the same period. Three models are driving the interest from Gen Z: the entry-level Tank, the sportier Santos, and the dressy Panthère.
After hundreds of flights to more than 50 countries, I've realised that making sure you're comfortable is the only sure-fire way to make the experience more enjoyable. With this goal in mind, my advice to all the jetset ladies out there is to invest in a quality pair of leggings. I'm talking about luxury loungewear that places an emphasis on soft fabrics that feel as good as they look.
Nail piercings were all the rage last year (and in the '90s), but now another nostalgic jewelry trend is making its way to your manicure. Enter: bangle nails - the look that shrinks your chunky bracelet stack so it's small enough to live on your fingertips. Inspired by the oversized accessories dominating Pinterest boards and fashion runways alike, bangle nails are all about contrasting texture and playful maximalism.
Photographed by Mario Sorrenti at the Chateau Marmont in Hollywood, Cyrus debuted a butter blonde pixie wig that felt like a subtle callback to her part-time pop star days - but with styling that leaned more Madonna circa 1986 than Miley circa 2009. Miley's Curly Blonde Pixie On the cover, Cyrus's butter blonde pixie - courtesy of celebrity hairstylist Shay Ashual - is paired with an ethereal set of bleached eyebrows. Shaggy layers frame her face, with tight curls stacked on top.
I had mine all planned out. The piece: the bush is back! A 3,000-word essay about the quiet reclamation of pubic hair in all its unruly glory, replete with hair-raising puns befitting a story of such campy defiance. But I must face the fact that I may never get to write this piece. Why? Because Kim Kardashian and her underwear brand Skims have ruined it, with the sale of a faux pubic hair thong called the Ultimate Bush.
