I’ll let you in on a little secret: once in a while when I’m looking for a fresh story idea, I ask my friends what they wish we’d write an article about. What’s interesting is that, whenever I do, about 80% of the time their requests have something to do with jeans. Whether it’s that they’re looking for a new denim trend to try, need help finding a great pair, or are in search of styling tips, it seems like jeans are not just everyone’s favorite staple, but their most complicated, too.
Which brings us to today’s post. Let’s say you’ve got the jeans—it’s then time to start stocking up on tops to wear with them. After all, is there any easier outfit combo? Just add boots, sneakers, or mules and you’re ready to face fall effortlessly and stylishly. On that note, shop a cool 36 of my favorite tops to pair with your jeans for the season ahead below.
Now that spring runway shows are wrapping up, it’s safe to say logomania is here to stay. From brands like Prada with its iconic triangle logo on tops and nylon bags to Fendi’s logo biker shorts Bella Hadid wore down the runway in Milan, designers are plastering logos on more pieces than ever. As I pointed out last month with the best Manolo Blahnik shoes under $200, we all can’t afford a new “it” designer item every season or even every year (myself included) so today I’m spilling how I score logo pieces without paying the full price.
Some of my favorite luxury resale sites are The Real Real and Vestiaire Collective, which you can easily browse by filtering by designer and your size. Below I’m sharing the best vintage Prada items you can add to your fall wardrobe for less than $200. I sourced everything from shoes to the cutest nylon baguette bags that all have a very throwback yet current vibe, so scroll down to snag the goods before someone else does. Be sure to show us how you’re wearing your new vintage pieces by using the hashtag #WhoWhatWearing on Instagram.

I can’t say enough how important I think it is to cultivate your own jewelry look to ensure every outfit is as stylish as possible from one day to the next. I personally have a stack of hoops up my ears that, at any given moment, can be found to include a fun pair of hoops or a larger statement piece. No matter your jewelry look, there’s always room for a new piece to shake up your staple pair and this fall, jewelry designers really delivered in the earring trends department.
The earring trends we saw emerge on the F/W 18 runways was varied for sure. We saw all-out ’80s glam jewelry moments, thanks to the triumphant return of the decade’s maximalism to fashion. And then there were the more eclectic, art-inspired shapes and the pretty pearl pieces on offer. On the whole, this season’s earring trends prove one thing for certain: no matter what kind of jewelry wearer you may be, there’s a fall 2018 earring trend with your name all over it.
To get a look at the styles that will adorn everyone’s ears for the next several months, keep reading and then shop our picks of each trend.

Elon Musk likes his weed. Who has a problem with that? Recreational cannabis is legal in California, he’s floating on oceans of money—anyone with a taste for it would probably be buying the green by the bushel.
It’s not news that his yen for it got him in trouble after tweeted the following lame-ass 420-themed joke. On Saturday he learned how much his joke cost.
That dumbass crack, supposedly tweeted for his (then?) girlfriend Grimes‘ amusement, cost a lot of money. Maybe not billions—at least not yet—but Ars Technica reports that thanks to pissed-off investors it certainly cost enough. Money is coming out of Musk’s and Tesla’s pockets and some humbling changes in his position with the company:
Musk and Tesla have each agreed to pay $20 million in penalties, which will distributed to those investors that were harmed. “At the Commission, the interests of ordinary investors are at the front of our minds and, in matters involving misconduct, we seek to serve those interests to the extent practicable while also ensuring that we remediate and deter misconduct,” said SEC Chairman Jay Clayton in a separate statement released at the same time as news of the settlement.
On top of the combined $40 million in penalties, Tesla will have to increase the independence of its board, adding two new directors not linked to Musk. It will also have to rein in his use of social media, adding “controls and procedures to oversee Musk’s communications.”
Ouch. Kicked off the top spot and he has babysitters to boot.
You do you, man
This won’t actually hurt Musk’s bank account and he’s still a part of the company, acting as CEO. It may curb his recent tendency towards public wilding out, removing him from the top spot as everyone’s favorite dope-smoking billionaire.
Not to be unkind to Musk or Tesla, but the SEC could have fined them $420 million just to be sarcastic.
Update, September 30: Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad Falchuk were officially married in the Hamptons last night, but there was seemingly a strict no social media policy, as we haven’t been privy to any photos from the ceremony. On Sunday, however, Paltrow shared the one and only image from her wedding: a sweet photo showing her and Falchuk’s sleek gold wedding bands. Congratulations to the happy couple!
Originally posted on September 28: Gwyneth Paltrow first confirmed her engagement to producer Brad Falchuk back in January in the most Gwyneth way possible: with a cute couple’s cover for Goop magazine. Then, in April, she wore an Oscar-worthy Giambattista Valli Haute Couture dress for her engagement party in Los Angeles that begged the question: How could her wedding dress top that couture creation? Well, we’re about to find out the answer.
Paltrow and Falchuk are set to get married in the Hamptons this weekend, People reports. Considering her celebrity pals Reese Witherspoon and Cameron Diaz attended her engagement party, don’t be surprised if they’re also present for the nuptials, in addition to Paltrow’s kids, 14-year-old Apple and 12-year-old Moses. Per People, the soon-to-be-married couple originally met on the set of Glee in 2010, where Falchuk was a producer and Paltrow was a guest star. How cute is that? While we wait for the highly anticipated wedding, scroll down to revisit their sweetest couple moments on Instagram.
