‘Gilmore Girls’ Turns 25: Cast and Creator Spill Casting Secrets, Talk Show’s Popularity and Hopes for a Movie
As the beloved dramedy celebrates the milestone anniversary, creator Amy Sherman-Palladino and stars Lauren Graham, Kelly Bishop and Scott Patterson look back on how a random story pitch became a cult classic that has taken over the season of fall.
It’s October, which means only one thing: Gilmore Girls season. But this fall season also brings with it the 25th anniversary of the beloved dramedy.
Not every show stands the test of time, and even fewer can say they’ve become synonymous with an entire season like Gilmore Girls. The series that centers on the strong and unique bond between mother and daughter Lorelai and Rory Gilmore, played by Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel, in the charmingly eccentric small fictional town of Stars Hollow successfully blends a nostalgic and comforting feeling with witty and rapid-fire dialogue.
For many, it goes beyond being only a TV show. “The medicinal and therapeutic effects this show has on people are extraordinary and it’s deep. I don’t know if Amy [Sherman-Palladino, creator] wants to hear it, but this show saves people, and it saves them on a daily basis,” Scott Patterson, who starred as diner owner Luke, who had a soft heart underneath his gruff exterior, for the show’s entire run, tells The Hollywood Reporter. “It soothes, heals and gives people hope there are better times ahead, that there were better times in the past and that we can have a better time in the present.”
‘The Woman In Cabin 10’ Cast And Characters: A Who’s Who Of Netflix’s Newest Psychological Thriller
Based on the bestselling novel by Ruth Ware, Keira Knightley’s latest psychological thriller is one made for fans of the genre.
Netflix’s newest film is here, and it’s set to scratch any and all psychological thriller itches. The Woman in Cabin 10, premiering Friday October 10, adapts Ruth Ware’s bestselling 2017 novel into what promises to be a gripping exploration of gaslighting, trust, and a woman’s fight to be believed.
Per the official Netflix synopsis, The Woman in Cabin 10 tells the story of a journalist who, while on a luxury yacht for an assignment, witnesses a passenger tossed overboard late one night, only to be told that she must have dreamed it, as all passengers are accounted for. ‘Despite not being believed by anyone onboard, she continues to look for answers, putting her own life in danger,’ the description continues.
Burgundy Nails Are The Elegant Look That Nail Insiders Always Come Back To For Autumn
Sophistication in a swipe
Autumn has me in a chokehold—it is, by far, my most favourite season. I long for the day when I can switch my white summer dresses for cosy knits, to sit next to a fire after a good old stomp in a leaf-littered park and dig out my beloved burgundy nail polishes. To me, and countless nail experts, it is the shade of the season. Autumn nail trends change slightly year after year, but burgundy nails are timeless.
I have played around with milky manicures over the summer, but this time of year calls for a deeper shade, and burgundy, much like cabernet nails, is a warm and classic colour. They work just as well in the day as they do in the evening, instantly elevating any outfit you might be wearing. I prefer the look on short and round nails, but the beauty of the this warm colour is that works on all nail lengths and shapes. It looks beautiful on toes, too.
I Used Astrocartography to Map Out My Next Holiday—Here’s What I Learned Following The Stars
Can the stars really tell you where you belong? A beginner’s guide to Astrocartography
As a little girl growing up in rural Devon, I’d spend hours leafing through Dorling Kindersley atlases (this was before the internet). I’d pore over maps of mountain ranges and moon phases, Arctic tundras and Amazonian canopies. I was even fond of a guidebook on world flags — a weird flex for a seven-year-old. Every page took me somewhere new, and I was antsy to grow up and get there already.
I did grow up, but somewhere between studying and securing that all-important first job… then second… then third, I missed out on the places I’d dreamed of. It also turns out you have to pay to travel, which Kindersley had failed to mention.
I’d hazard a guess that if you’re reading this, you like travelling, too. Enjoying a holiday is hardly groundbreaking, but what’s a little more unexpected is astrocartography — a relatively new (since the 70s) offshoot of astrology that maps how different places on Earth influence your astrological energies and experiences.
Two-tone loafers are the modern twist on an autumnal classic you have to add to your wardrobe
The shoe of choice for the most fashion-conscious women.
Loafers, loafers and more loafers. Specifically, two-tone loafers. That’s how you could sum up this autumn. In fact, in the shoe department, that’s how autumn has always been summed up. For decades. And no wonder – these classic shoes have the remarkable ability to appeal to a wide range of styles and personalities. And they have never been more versatile than in their two-tone version.
Two-tone loafers have been part of the closets of the best-dressed since time immemorial. See Kendall Jenner, who usually wears them with a simple pair of jeans and a tank top. Or, for an example of a more modern twist, take Charlize Theron, who wore them with tights and Bermuda shorts in the front row of Christian Dior’s spring-summer 2026 fashion show. Jonathan Anderson, the new creative director of the house, offered up two two-tone options in the collection. Even Lady Di herself used to combine her favourite two-tone loafers with skinny trousers, blazers and knitted sweaters back in the ’90s.
I paid an Etsy witch to supercharge my career. Here’s what happened next
Beware of eclipse szn, folks.
The first rule of Etsy Witch Club? Don’t talk about Etsy Witch Club. Unfortunately for me, however, I discovered this detail after agreeing to write about it, so hopefully my Etsy Witch doesn’t read Glamour. It’s been about a month since I first perused Etsy for a suitable sorceress to help me, finding one option (with 2,000 ratings and an average 4.9-star review) that boasted three generations of witches willing to do my bidding for the low price of £16. I’d heard good things about Etsy Witches – one friend told me that she’d paid for a cord-cutting spell for her boyfriend, and he’d suddenly, just, started working on all the issues within their relationship.
The 80s power suit is so back. Is it a recession indicator?
Wide shoulders and boxy suits have been dominating recent runways.
The 80s power suit is so back. Should we be worried?
Right now, it feels like all the eras are trending at once. 70s hippie spirit through the lens of the nineties and noughties is having a moment as “boho chic”; late 00s and early 2010s messy, indie music-fuelled hedonism is trending under the moniker “indie sleaze”, and mid-century Old Hollywood style, though never really out, is particularly popular at the moment. As if that wasn’t enough, the 80s are enjoying a revival too.
While a variety of 80s trends have been popping up on the runways, from gaudy costume jewellery at Saint Laurent to bubble skirts at Dior, the standout trend of this season is the 80s power suit. Not an unpadded shoulder in sight, the suits coming down the runway this month are notable for their statement-making width. While they’ve been everywhere, significant examples include Acne Studios, Ferragamo, Versace and especially the aforementioned Saint Laurent.
What boots to wear with bootcut jeans to be on trend this autumn
Bootcut jeans are back with a vengeance. Here’s how to style them.
If you want to know what boots to wear with bootcut jeans this fall, good news: we’re here to tell you. Bootcut jeans are one of the most versatile and flattering denim silhouettes you can wear, thanks to their slightly flared cut that helps elongate and balance proportions. But in order for these jeans to really shine, they need the right shoes. That’s where boots come into play—we are talking about bootcut jeans, after all.
The combination of bootcut jeans with tall boots is not only stylish, but also perfectly suited to cool autumn days. Together, they make for a comfortable outfit that will protect you from the cold and still provide a chic touch that turns an everyday look into a runway-worthy ensemble. So, here’s what boots to wear with bootcut jeans to be on trend this autumn.
Flared Jeans Are Back — Here’s 6 Ways To Wear Them Now
Fear not the flare with these tried-and-tested styling hacks.
Flared jeans are trending. This statement may fill you with joy or trepidation or a mix of both, but fear not – with a few outfit formulas up your sleeve (or rather, hem), denim flares may well become your go-to jeans this autumn and winter.
Denim flares were present on many an AW25 catwalk, but it was Chemena Kamali’s 1970s-tinged proposition for Chloé that got our hearts beating a little faster. High-waist, true-blue flares pooled vintage-looking ballet flats, and came styled with floaty blouses, charm-laden chain belts and faux-fur jackets. In other words, the bohemian trend that Kamali revived last winter shows no signs of waning – and a pair of high-waist denim flares are a key element of the Chloé girl’s winter wardrobe.
Why Aromatherapy Is The Missing Part Of Your Wellness Routine
It’s been a long day at the office and all you want to do is head home and crash out, but you’re expected at a friend’s birthday party. The thought of making small talk with all her supremely confident/loved-up/high-net-worth friends is filling you with dread. Do you a) bail and eat cereal; b) go and martini your way to confidence, or c) swipe an aromatherapy rollerball blend over your wrists, take a deep breath and head out to win friends and influence people?
The answer, of course, is c), because you’re a good friend, and also because it turns out that this natural, woo-woo, witchy, hippy stuff of dreams or derision actually works. Aromatherapy – the process that occurs when we inhale via our noses, or absorb by our skin, certain essential oil molecules, stimulating our olfactory system and sending signals to the limbic system in the brain (home of emotional governance, memory and mood) – is everywhere, from handy rollerballs in our handbags to being pillowcase spritzes for the nightstand.
35 Essential Cookbooks For Every Food Lover
The best cookbooks are far more than a straightforward list of recipes. They combine philosophy, history and enough sensuous description to make them a joy to read, whether you’re sweating over the stove in the kitchen or curled up on the sofa. Nigella Lawson’s How to Eat is as much a case for purple prose as it is a home cooking bible, and the common sense and gentle humour to be found in Mastering the Art of French Cooking make it a pleasure to flip through nearly 60 years after its original publication. And for those who are already familiar with the Italian and French traditions? In lieu of an actual holiday, transport yourself to Mexico City by way of Gabriela Cámara’s arroz verde, or conjure up an Irani cafe by sipping a homemade cup of Dishoom’s masala chai.
Chocolate Brown Is Fall’s Chicest Neutral—7 Outfit Ideas to Try
When it comes to dark neutrals, brown has historically taken a back seat to hues like navy, black, or gray. But years of opting for other colors has actually played a major part in the comeback of brown outfits. Designers like Miu Miu, Loewe, and The Row have continued to lean on the earthy tone in their collections. Rich chocolate brown, especially, has been statement-making this season—it’s the perfect shade for fall and winter.
The Tyranny of the Vacation Instagram Post
It used to be that you had a couple rolls of film to take travel pictures, and beyond that you’d do something many humans refer to as just “enjoying” a vacation. (I’m still researching what that must feel like.) But in this current age of social media-saturation, it’s clear that apps like Instagram have an absolute chokehold on traveling in the modern era. Call it Instagramxiety, a term I will soon campaign to enter into Merriam-Webster. No, it’s not enough to actually experience something. In fact, studies have found that nothing matters if you don’t post it to your story or it doesn’t make it on your grid. Or so it often seems.
The Top 25 Food Trends of the Past 25 Years
The world didn’t end in 2000, and that’s great news for food lovers. In the past 25 years, we’ve become more curious cooks and diners, thanks to the influences of celebrity chef culture, social media, and a more diverse representation of voices and cuisines in media and home kitchens. It’s often hard to imagine a time before Ina Garten was a household name, or before sriracha was a pantry staple in American kitchens.
From smash burgers to sriracha and plant-based meat, these are the trends that shaped the past 25 years of cooking.
Instagram and TikTok turned everyone into photographers, fueling picture-perfect avocado toast and cheese boards on our feeds. But home cooks have also embraced plenty of practical and nostalgic trends, like sheet pan dinners, comfort-food classics, and a return to home preservation. How we get food has changed, too, with the growth of restaurant and grocery delivery, spurred by a pandemic when many of us were perfecting our sourdough.
One thing that’s undeniable: Our palates have become bolder. From U.S. consumers embracing global pantry staples like gochujang and fish sauce to welcoming plant-based meat, here’s a look back at the food trends from the past quarter-century that have shaped how we eat today.
Keri Russell’s Emotional Transparency Has Anchored Three Decades of TV
But, offscreen, she’s not even sure that she wants to be an actress.
Once upon a time, serious actors looked down on TV. Then, in the nineties, the medium began to crackle, producing, among other things, warm, sophisticated shows about relationships, such as “My So-Called Life.” In the two-thousands, cable was dominant, full of rule-breaking antihero dramas (you know the ones). When streaming emerged, seasons got shorter and slicker, and over time “comfort TV” became the standard. Russell has been a steady presence throughout these shakeups, with a key role in each era: first, the warmhearted Felicity; then, a decade later, the cold-eyed Soviet spy Elizabeth Jennings, in FX’s “The Americans”; and, most recently, the high-strung, messy-haired, questionably hygienic foreign-affairs expert Kate Wyler, on the Netflix political thriller “The Diplomat.”
The 250 Greatest Songs of the 21st Century So Far
25 years of classic hits from all over the musical map and every corner of the globe
If there’s anything that defines music in the 21st century, it’s constant change. We live in an era when your next favorite song could come from anywhere — all over the stylistic map, all over the world. The whole experience of being a music fan keeps mutating all of the time. Back in Y2K, when ‘NSync dropped “Bye Bye Bye,” it was the peak for the era of buying CDs, until that era went bye-bye-bye. Napster happened; so did MySpace and the iPod. Streaming arrived; vinyl came back. New sounds keep getting invented, with the air full of eclectic and experimental songs. If you’re a music fan these days, you’ve got a whole planet of sound at your fingertips.
That’s the spirit behind our list of the 21st century’s 250 greatest songs so far. Like our list of the century’s greatest albums, it’s a wide-ranging mix of different styles, different beats, different voices. Some of these songs are universally beloved hits; others are influential cult classics. But this list sets out to capture the full chaotic glory of 21st-century music, one song at a time.

We connected with health and food safety experts to find out what the current thinking is about the benefits of red wine.
9 Things Experts Say You Should Toss From Your Pantry ASAP
Make space for fresher staples.
As the saying goes, “out of sight, out of mind.” Unfortunately, this is how so many items you have stored in your pantry expire without notice. Soon, bottles of spices pile up, you end up with duplicates, and gathering ingredients becomes an overwhelming chore.
“Regularly updating and organizing your pantry can seriously improve not only your meals, but also your time management, your grocery shopping process, finances, and even how smoothly your day runs,” says Amanda Rivera, owner of Tidy Red Professional Organizing.
The challenge is to roll up your sleeves and look at each item squarely, read its expiration date, and do an overhaul, so that your overall kitchen and food prep is less overwhelming. To keep your pantry items easily accessible and to reduce cooking time and unnecessary frustration, toss the following items from your pantry ASAP. It’s an easy start for a more organized space.
