Spring Wardrobe Essentials That Never Go Out of Style: Glamour.com There's something about spring that makes us want to go shopping. OK, fine, we feel that way when fall hits as well—but knowing that the coming months will involve more outdoor activities just makes it that much more exciting. While we can't help but indulge in the trends of each season, there are also nine wardrobe essentials that we can't live without—especially for spring. The Leather Jacket: With a little more warmth than other spring jacket styles, this edgy moto style is a great denim topper on the weekends, but also a fun addition to a cocktail dress when heading out at night. The White Button-Down Shirt: For work, a date, or the weekend, a button-down shirt will always be appropriate. The Striped T-Shirt: You can never have too many striped shirts. The White Sneaker: Lowtop or hightop, a white sneaker is a forever style. The Denim Jacket: Cropped or oversize, every girl should have a denim jacket in her closet. The Little Black Dress: The White T-Shirt: Stock up. The Trench Coat:
Katy Perry, Katie Holmes, and More Dressing like Disney Princesses on the Red Carpet: Glamour.com Even celebrities aren't immune to the nostalgic pull of Disney princesses. With the world's most exquisite gowns at their disposal and stylists ready to create looks inspired by anything they desire, it's surprisingly common to see stars go back to the fairy-tale heroines who influenced our elementary-school sartorial choices (just ask North West, who's made it clear that Frozen's Elsa, not mom Kim Kardashian, is her ultimate fashion inspo). From all the princess-esque gowns we've seen on the red carpet, these are the ones we think are most like the real deal. Wearing Marchesa at the Met Gala in 2014, Katie Holmes was seriously channeling Belle's most regal moment from Beauty and the Beast. Elle Fanning copied the hue and off-the-shoulder cut of Aurora's ball gown with her Elie Saab Couture when attending the Maleficent Hollywood premiere in 2014 (the choker was even similar to the cartoon look!). Icy blue with sparkles? Like Elle, Lily James went thematic when premiering Cinderella.
The Robot Revolution in Caregiving The game is simple, designed for a child and intended to teach users about diet and diabetes. I sit opposite Charlie, my diminutive fellow player. Between us is a touch screen. Our task is to identify which of a dozen various foodstuffs are high or low in carbohydrate. Charlie is polite, rising to greet me when I join him at the table. But Charlie is a robot, a two-foot-tall electromechanical machine, a glorified computer. Charlie’s intended playmates aren’t sixty-something Englishmen, they’re children. The question is not ‘Do I want a robot companion to care for me?’ In truth my reaction to Charlie, far from being odd or childish, is pretty typical. This has set me wondering how I might cope with the experience – not for an hour or a day, but for months, years. Modern medicine and increasing longevity have conspired to boost the need for social care, whether in the home or in institutions. Consider our relationship with nonhuman entities of a different type: animals.
UTA Artist Space To Open September 17 With Larry Clark Exhibit UTA is putting the finishing touches on UTA Artist Space, a 4,500-square-foot exhibition venue in downtown Los Angeles. The plan is to use it to showcase artists, musicians, filmmakers, writers and more — some from the agency’s client roster, and some not — and will feature readings, performances, screenings, and large-scale exhibitions often in collaboration with other galleries. First up: a presentation of 50 works of artist and director Larry Clark including film, photography, painting and collage. It will open September 17 and be organized with his New York gallery Luhring Augustine. The show will be the first of many organized by UTA’s Fine Arts division. “We are dedicated to seizing opportunities for artists, and UTA Artist Space provides a place for artists to interface with the public and each other in a dynamic, supportive way,” UTA chairman and co-founder Jim Berkus said in announcing the space and unveiling the first look.
When Fashion Meets Technology, You Can Wear Your Tweets Photo The Dutch fashion designer Iris van Herpen, in her 2010 collection “Crystallization,” was the first person to send a 3-D-printed haute couture garment down the runway. A top assembled from nine scalloped, shell-like sections cantilevered over the model’s shoulders and chest like a futuristic shield. That high-tech piece, printed layer by layer from polyamide, is one of many being presented as wearable sculpture in “Iris van Herpen: Transforming Fashion,” through May 15 at the High Museum in Atlanta. The show, the museum’s first foray into displaying fashion, is also the first solo museum exhibition in the United States devoted to Ms. van Herpen. Museums are clearly paying attention to the impact of technology on fashion, with “#techstyle” on view at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, through July 10, and “Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology” opening at the in New York on May 5. When Mr. Mr. The show will challenge the traditional dichotomy of handmade and machine-made.
Gigi Hadid in Rihanna’s Fenty Puma Sneakers On a secluded side street in Seoul’s Cheongdam, removed from the neighborhood’s main drag, lies a glimmering jewel box of a shop that’s a full-on fashion dream: lemon yellow Vita Kin vyshyvankas, their tassels embroidered with black thread; a butter-soft Forte Couture leather jacket, the words Mr. Fringe hand-painted on the back. It’s here, at Rare Market, that an incomparably chic duo has curated a treasure trove of clothes that are changing the way Korean girls approach fashion. The day that I visit, the team is busy preparing the launch of The Volon, a line of fringed and furred bags, for which Russian street style star and entrepreneur Miroslava Duma will fly in from Moscow. “In Korea, women tend to shop for what’s cute, or what’s lovely—that’s how they think a lot—but as you can see, our shop isn’t like that,” Jung explains, gesturing to the racks of Jacquemus and Marques ’ Almeida around her. So, how are Kwon and Jung expanding their empire?
5 Projects That Make Incredible Use of Water Article By Tahio Avila We take a look at 5 Projects That Make Incredible Use of Water Let’s get lost in the projects that landscape architects are developing more and more every day. It’s clear we are in the sustainable era, where every design we make should be eco-friendly and sustainable. Searching for projects that include the element of water, I realized that every one of them had something in common: the concept of sustainability. The projects in this article will help us understand why water shouldn’t be a single-use item. Many interesting projects have being developed in countries around the world, but in northern Europe, they are really taking it seriously, with governments introducing new laws to guarantee the use of natural resources — bound to public transportation, bikeways, pedestrian ways, and renewable energies — that help to improve the lifestyle of the community. 1. This is a new project everybody should know about. An EcoDistrict. 2. Waterplein Benthemplein. 3. 4. 5.
