Like most women who grew up in the 1990s I have some feelings about corduroy. (What, you don’t?) As a former fashion staple of the back-to-school season, my point of view on corduroy ultimately came down to being a super keener. I was a fan, especially around Grade 6 when I wore a corduroy blazer
There’s no one way to practice self-care. As the name suggests, it’s highly individual — whatever makes you feel your best, that’s what you should do.

Personally, I love experimenting with hair color—it’s a low-commitment way to transition your everyday look from soft and subtle to hello, statement. For example, in one summer alone I tried platinum blonde, rose, and surprise, lavender hair, which I actually loved the most. Then, suddenly it felt like BOOM! Every. Single. Celeb was dabbling in

(Photo: Getty) Meghan and Harry’s tour of Southern Africa was a hit. After months of on-and-off bad press, including criticism of their use of private jets over the summer while also being outspoken environmentalists, and of their creation of a Sussex Royal brand, it seemed to mark a reset for the popular royal couple.

We did this quick 10-minute bodyweight core workout as a warmup before a recent cardio-focused CrossFit class, and it totally fired up my abs and arms.

The transition from summer into the colder months brings with it many unpleasant changes: prolonged darkness, frigid temperatures and a woeful lack of ice cream vans, to name a few.

Like a certain subset of millennial women who live for messy drama on a 5G connection, I have fallen down the rabbit hole of Caroline Calloway. The trusting, manic, Instagram influencer became temporarily infamous in January for “mason-jar-gate,” a mostly-failed event tour that captured the hearts and minds of the Internet drama-loving public. But it
