During the Beatles’ heyday in the 1960s, fans obsessed over not just their music but every element of the boys’ lives: their friendships, their girlfriends, their hair, and yes, their shoes. Dubbed “Beatle boots,” their signature shoes were sleek, low-heeled, black ankle boots.
Allison Williams served horror-movie haute couture during a stroll through New York City on Oct. 25. Following the viral success of director Gerard Johnstone’s “M3gan,” in which Williams plays the malevolent doll’s rival, fans have been taking style cues from the fashionable AI robot. In the film, M3GAN unleashes her vengeance on dozens of unsuspecting victims, and she does it all in patent-leather Mary Janes and a peplum silhouette. After months of filming, her chic sense of style appears to have rubbed off on Williams, and something about the preppy ensemble has us envisioning a whole collection of M3GAN-inspired outfits.
I’ll never forget our meet-cute. She was wearing suspenders. I was rocking a bob weave like “Umbrella”-era Rihanna. I was two-weeks into my gig as a production assistant at a national music station, and I was escorting a VJ hopeful to the biggest audition of her life. We were both nervous newbies walking through the halls of our dream career destination. We didn’t know it on that walk, but the two of us would become best friends, “work wives” if you will, and carry each other through the highs (backstage chats with Lady Gaga, getting paid to talk about music, dancing at our desks) and the lows (general pre-live TV anxiety, horrible bosses, the impending end of music television) of our jobs for years to come. Think Jane, Sutton, and Kat of The Bold Type but with less glamour and more grinding.
An engagement ring is one of the most personal pieces of jewellery you can own. Beyond the sentiment, an engagement ring will also probably be one of the biggest pieces of investment jewellery you’ll acquire. While there’s certainly a lot that goes into choosing the engagement ring that is right for you, we want to make one thing clear: You don’t have to spend more than your means to get a ring that looks elevated and, well, expensive.
