BUSINESS: NikeSKIMS IS HERE
The long-term partnership fuses Nike’s performance-driven fabrics with SKIMS’ signature body-hugging fits, delivering a 58-piece drop of leggings, bras, shorts, and more in sleek neutrals. Tested by athletes from Serena Williams to Sha’Carri Richardson, the line is built to prove you don’t have to choose between looking good and feeling strong.


BEAUTY: TORTOISESHELL NAILS ARE ABOUT TO BE EVERYWHERE
You’re definitely going to see tortoise nails everywhere soon—and we’re not mad about it. Think moody neutrals with a glossy, layered finish that gives major depth and dimension, all inspired by the classic tortoiseshell pattern you know. Nail artists say this chic look is surprisingly beginner-friendly — with layers of brown, black, and greige tones, you can easily recreate the rich, marbled effect at home.
FASHION: WHAT COOL WOMEN ARE WEARING TO THE OFFICE
What’s really office-appropriate in 2025? From printed dresses with statement accessories to polished vests paired with denim, their go-to looks strike that sweet spot between professional and personal style—aka exactly the inspo your work wardrobe needs.
The Antidote follows a "Prairie Witch,” whose body serves as a bank vault for peoples’ memories and secrets; a Polish wheat farmer who learns how quickly a hoarded blessing can become a curse; his orphan niece, a basketball star and witch’s apprentice in furious flight from her grief; a voluble scarecrow; and a new deal photographer whose time-traveling camera threatens to reveal both the town’s secrets and its fate.
IN COLLABORATION WITH
Say hello to the Quilted House Coat from Cozy Earth—the layer that makes hibernation season feel stylish. Perfect for crisp fall mornings, chilly winter nights, and every moment in between, it’s the piece you’ll want to live in all season long.
Cozy never looked so good!
