The 3 Under-$10 Items I Wore for a Week Straight
Last week I attended fashion week in Milan and you bet I had my outfits planned out to a tee before I packed and headed out of the country. I pulled inspiration and photographed every look while packing (like I do for every trip) to ensure I know exactly what to wear while I’m on my trip and to hopefully avoid overpacking and overweight luggage fees. The trip was somewhat last-minute so I didn’t have a ton of time to organize and gather pieces for my fashion week looks so I really had to be savvy and lean on my accessories to make my outfits stand out.
Above all the items that I packed, I wore three under-$10 items I purchased off Amazon last-minute the most. I finally hopped on the biker shorts trend and scored a pair for $4 so that makes for item number one. The next piece is also from Hanes, I ordered a three pack of these white tanks which I wore with almost every outfit and had planned on cutting into a crop but ran out of time and had to do the old-school fold under trick to make it a DIY crop. The last piece is this $8 thick black (faux leather) headband that I ended up wearing with the majority of my looks which I was glad because it was hot and I was very sweaty so luckily my cute Amazon headband hid my gross hair. See how I styled the key under-$10 items below and shop the pieces you need to recreate the outfits.
Yep, Timothée Chalamet Wore Dad Sneakers on the Red Carpet
As much as Who What Wear loves covering fashion girls’ every style moment, that doesn’t mean we don’t love to highlight intriguing menswear looks too. Remember our coverage of the most stylish fashion boys at the Emmys? Sadly, Timothée Chalamet wasn’t at the event, where Joe Keery and Milo Ventimiglia topped our list—but Chalamet more than made up for it with his latest outfit.
Attending the premiere of his new movie, A Beautiful Boy, at the San Sebastian International Film Festival in Spain, Chalamet wore a beautiful Alexander McQueen floral-embellished suit, but we immediately zeroed in on his sneakers. His chunky Alexander McQueen Runner Sneakers ($590) nail the “ugly” shoe trend and are a refreshing change from the requisite red carpet loafers. Scroll down to see his look and shop the women’s versions of the shoes for yourself.

The Little-Known History of Leggings
As any true fashion girl like yourself understands, knowing the origin of your favorite trends makes wearing them all the more gratifying. And there’s arguably no bigger trend right now than leggings. We’re all well aware of the fashion cycle—everything comes back again. (Just take a look at the recent revivals of ’70s, ’90s, 2000s, and now ’80s trends.) But when it comes to leggings, it turns out they’ve been “coming back” for centuries. While researching the history of leggings, we were surprised to discover that the origin of the trend dates way back to the 14th century, and men were actually the first to wear them. But since the mid-20th century, leggings have been a closet staple for It girls and others who love them.
Given their lengthy tenure, we decided to take an in-depth look into the storied history of the legging craze, which was largely dictated by celebrities then just as it is today. (We’re looking at you, Gigi.)
Keep scrolling to get all the fascinating facts about the seven-centuries-long history of leggings and shop pairs inspired by each time period.

Food Events: What’s on in October 2018
From Latin America’s 50 Best Restaurant award ceremony to pioneering chef symposiums, check out the leading food events around the world this month.Sonoma County Wine Auction Reaches New Heights, Raising $5.7 Million (Wine Spectator)
The Sonoma County Wine Auction is an annual chance for vintners to help those in need and celebrate the region’s bounty. But this year, the need for help was close to home—the event focused on rebuilding efforts following last October’s devastating wine-country wildfires. Attendees responded by bidding generously for a collection of world-class wine experiences at the live auction on Saturday, Sept. 22, raising $5.7 million for charity, surpassing last year’s high of $5.2 million.
The auction, held this year at La Crema Estate at Saralee’s Vineyard, in Windsor, is one of wine country’s top charity events. Organized by the Sonoma County Vintners, it has raised nearly $35 million since its inception, with proceeds going to more than 70 local nonprofits supporting education, literacy, health and environmental services and the arts.
The theme for this year’s event was revival, with a focus on recovery efforts and building affordable housing for the thousands of local residents who lost their homes during the fires.
“We believed it was really important for this auction to help rebuild and revitalize Sonoma County,” George Hamel Jr., the auction’s honorary chair and founder of Sonoma’s Hamel Family Wines, told Wine Spectator. The fires only damaged a few wineries and vineyards in Sonoma County but they destroyed more than 5,300 homes, including Hamel’s.
Emotions ran high for the annual Fund-a-Need lot, with guests raising their paddles to donate at various price levels to help rebuilding efforts in Sonoma. The Hamel Family Foundation set the tone, donating $300,000. Christopher Jackson of Jackson Family Wines quickly matched that amount on behalf of his company. E. & J. Gallo donated $150,000, while other prominent Sonoma vintners and wineries each bid $100,000.
Chef Nancy Oakes of Boulevard in San Francisco, who was an honoree at the event, got in on the action as well, offering to hold a truffle dinner for guests who agreed to donate $50,000 to the Fund-a-Need lot. Silicon Valley entrepreneur David Shimmon offered to increase the final bid for the lot to an even $2.5 million.
The live auction was the capstone to three days of wine- and food-fueled events. The festivities started Thursday night with a party at Paradise Ridge in the Russian River Valley, a Sonoma winery that was heavily damaged by the fires but has begun rebuilding.
On Saturday, the mood was festive inside the auction tent as 350 wine lovers gathered to celebrate. Auctioneer John Curley entertained the crowd, keeping the energy high and the paddles flying. “There was a feeling in the tent like there has never been before,” said Hamel. “The generosity of the people just blew everyone away.”
Bidding was generous for the top lot, a five-course dinner at the Charles M. Schultz museum and a private concert by Grammy Award winner George Winston, sponsored by Hamel Family Wines. When the gavel fell, 46 couples had paid $10,000 each for the opportunity, for a grand total of $460,000, making it the highest amount raised for a single lot in the auction’s history.
There was a tie for the other two top-grossing lots of the day. Shimmon paid $190,000 for a trip for four to the 2019 men’s Wimbledon final, including accommodations and a dinner with Wimbledon legend Tim Henman. That was matched by a dinner for eight with Nancy Oakes, prepared by fellow chefs, including Gary Danko, Michael Tusk and Tyler Florence, that pulled in $95,000. Oakes then doubled the lot, for a total of $190,000.
The highest wine-only lot came from Michael Browne, owner of Cirq winery and a founder of Kosta Browne, which included a 21-bottle library selection of Pinot Noirs ranging from standard-size bottles up to 5 liters. The winning bid was $80,000. “To have this in our hometown is huge,” said Browne, who noted that the fires brought the community closer together. “It hits close to home for everyone in the community, since everybody knows someone that was affected.”
