Elais Restaurant – Mykonos, Greece
Remember: In through the nose on a count of three, out through the mouth on a count of two. It’s FRIDAY, darling. Do you affirmations and meditations and then spend the rest of the day in blissfully delusional ignorance of the goings-on in the rest of the world.
No Doubt Announces Residency at Las Vegas’ Sphere and Reveals 2026 Dates
After calls for a reunion tour following last year’s standout performances at Coachella, No Doubt is banding back together for a residency at Las Vegas’ Sphere, with six shows slated for 2026.
The group, consisting of Gwen Stefani, Tony Kanal, Tom Dumont and Adrian Young, will head over to Sin City for what’s being billed as a six-night limited engagement on May 6, 8, 9, 13, 15 and 16.
“The opportunity to create a show at Sphere excites me in a new way,” says Stefani in a statement. “The venue is unique and modern and it opens up a whole new visual palette for us to be creative. Doing it with No Doubt feels like going back in time to relive our history, while also creating something new in a way we never could have imagined.”
‘Monster’ Season 4 Starts Filming With Returning Star Charlie Hunnam, Ella Beatty as Lizzie Borden
Hunnam, who is currently starring as serial killer Ed Gein in season three of the Netflix true-crime anthology, returns alongside Beatty, who will portray the series’ first female “monster.”
No rest for the wicked, or Charlie Hunnam when it comes to Monster.
With the third season of Monster: The Ed Gein Story currently streaming atop the Netflix charts, season four of the true-crime anthology from Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan has gone into production in Los Angeles.
The fourth season of the Emmy-winning Netflix hit stars season three star Hunnam along with Ella Beatty (Feud: Capote vs. The Swans, If I Had Legs I’d Kick You) and will tell the story of the series’ first female “monster” Lizzie Borden, who will be played by Beatty.
How Kevin Costner Lost Hollywood
On-set brawls. Courtroom battles. Epic bombs. Why the world’s most bankable cowboy is suddenly shooting blanks.
There’s a long list of people in Hollywood who swear they’ll never work with Costner again. And they all have their reasons. He doesn’t always pay his bills on time — one since-settled lawsuit alleged hundreds of thousands in unpaid costume fees. He burns through relationships — like his longtime producing partner, whom he sued for $15 million. He ignores advice, even from folks like Steven Spielberg. He rewrites scripts without warning, overrules directors and on more than one occasion has clashed with his co-stars — including Clint Eastwood, Kurt Russell … and Wes Bentley.
The Most Interesting Thing About Victoria Beckham’s Netflix Documentary Is What Goes Unsaid About Brooklyn And Nicola
Conspicuously absent from the Netflix ‘Victoria Beckham’ documentary is any mention of the rumoured rift between the multi-hyphenate and her eldest son Brooklyn and his wife, Nicola Peltz.
Victoria Beckham’s highly anticipated Netflix documentary drops today, promising an intimate look into the life of one of fashion’s most scrutinised names. Yet conspicuously absent from the three-episode documentary? Any mention of the rumoured rift between Victoria and her eldest son Brooklyn and his wife, Nicola Peltz. The silence is deafening — but perhaps what’s more telling is our collective obsession with filling it.
Family feuds among the famous are hardly revolutionary content. They’re practically a required subplot in the narrative of dynasty-building, as inevitable as the rise itself. The Kennedys had their internal warfare. The Kardashians have monetised theirs into multi-season story arcs. Even the British Royal Family — the gold standard of keeping calm and carrying on — couldn’t prevent their domestic tensions from becoming the most dissected relationship drama of the 21st century.
35 witch makeup ideas that we’d actually want to wear
Witch, please.
Our interest in all things occult has taken off. On social media, #WitchTok is a bubbling community with 47.5 billion views on TikTok. So expect to see witch makeup fly this Halloween. Even if you’ve not quite got your head around cleansing your crystals in the full moon, burning sage, or DIY enchantments, anyone can tap into the witch aesthetic.
Even better, there are tons of different ways to interpret the witch makeup look, whether you connect more with mystic vibes, something more natural and earthy, full-on glam, something super scary with special effects, or classic and, um, green (we see you Elphaba). With the Wicked: For Good movie set to release on 21 November, you could also jump on the Glinda action early, because who says you can’t be a “good witch”?

35 best Black-owned beauty brands to support all year round
From Fenty Beauty & Pat McGrath Labs to supporting Black beauty entrepreneurs.
Without the Black community, the beauty industry would not exist as we know it today. So why wouldn’t we show support for Black-owned beauty brands that play a huge part in keeping it afloat?
Many of beauty’s most-booked treatments and biggest trends (hair extensions, nail art and acrylic nails, to name only a few) are steeped in Black culture and have been a staple of Black beauty for decades. Not only that, but the most recent figures show that in one year alone, Black consumers spent an estimated $9.4 billion on beauty products.
9 Books We Can’t Stop Thinking About This Month
An It girl bio, a tear-jerker of a love story, and more novels and nonfiction the VF staff couldn’t put down.
Last month, researchers published a study finding that the practice of “leisure reading” is in precipitous decline. In 2004, 28% of survey respondents reported reading for pleasure; by 2023, just 16% did. The survey defined such reading broadly: novels, audiobooks, magazines—any consumption of words not required by work or school. In an interview with The New York Times, one of the reading study’s co-authors described what she saw to be the broad negative implications of its findings, noting that reading involves forming connections with characters on the page. “The empathy that we feel for them is actually real,” she said, “and these connections with characters can be ways that we can feel less alone, that we can feel socially and emotionally validated.” So whether looking for leisure or connection, read on, pleasure seekers. We have a book for you.
Glamour and Grit: Anjelica Huston’s Cultured Coolness
The Oscar winner digs into her groovy youth in swinging London, her long entanglement with Jack Nicholson, and so much more in her two essential autobiographies.
“Remember,” Anjelica Huston’s father, John, used to tell her, “You can always put your hands in your pockets and walk away.”
Huston never took the legendary director’s advice. She’s been the scion of a famed Hollywood family, a top model, and an Oscar-winning actress in films like Prizzi’s Honor, The Grifters, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Dead, The Addams Family, Crimes and Misdemeanors, and The Witches. In Huston’s two autobiographies—2013’s A Story Lately Told: Coming of Age in Ireland, London, and New York and 2014’s Watch Me: A Memoir—she also reveals herself to be an excellent writer whose keen eye for aesthetics and detail would have made her a great fashion editor, travel writer, or gossip columnist as well.
Her words allow the slightly tough and achingly chic Huston to reveal a strikingly cuddly, softhearted streak, especially regarding children and animals. “For a sophisticated girl,” she notes, “I could be tragically gullible.”
How Princess Kate Is ‘Quietly Rebelling’ Against Royal Rules
The Princess of Wales has returned to the spotlight in 2025, with her and Prince William resuming their roles as leaders of the fold. And from their upcoming house move to their multiple appearances this summer, they have truly been front and centre.
However, after enduring a turbulent 2024, with the mother of three diagnosed with cancer, her priorities are said to have changed. And with Princess Kate now in remission, royal experts have noted that she is “quietly rebelling” by implementing healthy boundaries around her personal life.
‘I Would Tell Black Creatives That You Will Always Be Your Number-One Advocate’: Dame Pat McGrath’s Mastery Knows No Bounds
From crafting culture-defining moments on the runway to taking a new role at the helm of Louis Vuitton’s first beauty venture, Dame Pat McGrath gives Kenya Hunt a glimpse into her captivating universe.
Dame Pat McGrath has the sonorous voice of a seasoned singer; the tightly curated and achingly efficient personal uniform of a tech mogul; the social-media nous of a super-influencer; and the fill-the-room charisma of a screen star. But she has made her living and achieved her considerable fame in the business of beauty, building one of the industry’s most beloved brands. And during a time when creative commerce is locked in an algorithmic loop, she’s an artist who has cracked the code for creativity in the digital age.
The 10 Best Floral Fragrances, Tested and Reviewed by Editors
Stop and (literally) smell the roses.
For the longest time, I refused to wear anything in the floral fragrance family. I feared smelling stale or like an overwhelming cloud of roses. But after diving deep into the world of the best ever perfumes, I’ve concluded that the best floral fragrances are actually supremely chic and sophisticated.
Some floral scents smell light, airy, and are perfect for warmer weather. Others have a subtle sweetness that marries floral notes with hints of citrus or gourmand ingredients. Many, you wouldn’t even think are floral-first, as woody, aquatic, and spicy notes blend together.

30 Best Capri Pants to Make This Your Trendiest Autumn Yet
Pedal pushers have never looked better.
It’s finally happening: Capri pants are back in the zeitgeist. Like other controversial bottoms of the recent past—low-rise denim, cargo pants, cigarette jeans—they’ve spent a moment in fashion jail. But thanks to a slew of A-list endorsements, the fall fashion trend is on the precipice of another golden age that could rival its ’60s, ’80s, and ’00s heydays. (The 20-year trend cycle wins again!)
Inside the Original Witches’ Halloween — Samhain’s Bonfires, Cauldrons, and a Feast
A practicing witch breaks down the traditional feast — ritual tea, savory pasties, spiced sweets — and how to adapt it for modern hosting.
It is only in recent times that Halloween — the Eve of All Saints Day — has been reduced to a children’s festival celebrated almost exclusively in the United States as an evening of “trick or treat.” In this country there is little left to associate it with a religious tradition predating Christianity — unless of course you are a member of the Old Religion commonly called witchcraft, but more correctly named Wicca. To us, Halloween is a double festival of fire and remembrance of the dead, as well as the Celtic New Year’s Eve.
Is Better Balance the Key to a Happier, Healthier, and Longer Life?
Balance is the new obsession in health and fitness, taking its place beside strength and flexibility as a benchmark of wellness. The medical research that undergirds this fixation mostly addresses either the treatment of ADHD and dyslexia (there’s a theory, with some evidence behind it, that poor focus is related to poor balance, and that working on the latter can improve the former) or the deeply unsexy business of aging. Large-scale studies have found that middle-aged to elderly folks who could not stand on one foot for 10 seconds or more were at greater peril of falling, suffering cognitive decline, and, in one result published in 2022, were 84 percent more likely to die within seven years—yes, die—than their more sure-footed peers.
Scary Good: How Hollywood’s Most Talented Costume Designers Bring Horror Films to Life
Later this month, Vogue World: Hollywood will take place on the iconic Paramount Pictures Studio lot in Los Angeles. The show will celebrate the rich conversation between film and fashion, while featuring the work of renowned Hollywood costume designers such as Colleen Atwood, Ruth E. Carter, Arianne Phillips, and more. In anticipation of the grand event (and in honor of spooky season) we couldn’t help but think of the role costume design has played in horror films over the years. Sure, more glamorous or historically-accurate fashion may come to mind when you think of costuming for the big screen, but for those who have leaned into more macabre creations, the end results have been just as thrilling.
If you think about it, strong costumes are a must for a well-executed scary movie (though a great score and special effects will help, too). For years, costumers have been creating spooky serial killers—from Ghostface to Michael Myers—and conjuring up original designs that remain seared into our brains (and promt some of us to look under the bed each night). Take the hockey mask-wearing Jason, or Freddy Krueger in his striped Christmas sweater and knives-for-fingers. Both came to fruition thanks to a costume designer.
Captivating photos of queer glamour in 70s New York
All of Us Stars is the new photo book bringing together Bobby Busnach’s mesmerising portraits of Manhattan’s ‘hustlers, trans women and club kids’
New York in the 1970s is still one of the most mythologised periods of queer history. The years between the Stonewall riots and the Aids crisis saw an explosion in political activism, nightlife, creative vitality and unbridled hedonism, which many of those fortunate enough to survive the following decade would later look back to as a kind of lost idyll. All of Us Stars (published by Reference Point) offers a fresh new perspective on this era, collecting hundreds of shots by photographer Bobby Busnach, some of which have never before been published.
How to Get Your Bathroom Ready for Visitors, From What to Stock to How to Clean
A few simple touches can turn your bathroom into a five-star-worthy space.
Whether you’re prepping for a house full of friends or a single overnight guest, the bathroom will undoubtedly need some attention before anyone’s arrival. Since this is a room that will certainly see some traffic in almost any hosting scenario, it’s important to make sure that the space is clean and well-stocked for guests.
To help you get your bathroom ready for its time to shine, we consulted with some event planning and cleaning experts to find out their most useful tips.
Expensive Home ‘Upgrades’ That Aren’t Worth the Money, According to Experts
Think twice before investing in these.
When it comes to home renovations, it’s easy to get swept up in picture-perfect Pinterest boards. However, not every seemingly glamorous upgrade is a good one—especially when it comes to long-term value. In fact, many expensive features can turn into money pits, draining your budget without adding any resale appeal.
A recent study even revealed that one in five home renovations exceed their budget by over $5,000; bathroom and kitchen projects are the priciest—and the most regretted. The lesson? High price tags don’t always guarantee quality. Here, we spoke to experts about the expensive features that you should reconsider.
You Might Be Living With Mold Without Realizing It, New Data Shows
No home is immune to this health hazard.
You may not be able to see it, but mold could be hiding in plain sight—and, according to new data, it’s more common than most homeowners think.
A recent survey of 2,000 Americans, conducted by Talker Research for Rainbow Restoration, found that while the average person believes roughly 37 percent of U.S. homes contain mold, the real number is closer to 47 percent.1 That means nearly half of homes across the country may be harboring mold, often without their occupants even realizing it.
Cultural Crossroads
Your passport to arts, culture, food, and beyond.
Travel isn’t just about seeing new places—it’s about immersing yourself in the local culture. Sometimes, that means visiting a storied institution, like the Louvre in Paris, or it can be as simple as walking through a cobbled alley plastered with colorful murals or buying a ticket to a performance at a centuries-old theater.
In this special collection, we celebrate the trips that are centered around a destination’s creative pulse, from a grand museum adventure to a deep dive into an emerging art hub to a weekend spent exploring a city’s culinary and shopping scenes. Who knows, maybe it could spark your own creative work?
