Can Corsets Help You Reach Peak Physical Performance? AOC Says Buy 2

Why Does One Woman's Waist Trainer Make Another Woman Upset?

Waist training advocate Kim Kardashian is a big driver of this trend. But celebrities like Nicki Minaj and Kylie Jenner are also fans. Laverne Cox has made a place in her life for waist training. Lizzo is out front with her new shapewear collection, and I promise you that when Ana de Armas hits Netflix playing Marilyn Monroe in 'Blonde' this fall, waist training corset sales will soar.

Ana de Armas' Fall 2022 Marilyn Monroe 'Blonde' Netflix Debut | ELLE US Interview

The quiet, but articulate actor amps the level of intrusion around her life in LA and why she had to live the city. “It became a little bit too much. There’s no escape. There’s no way out.” In Los Angeles, she adds, “it’s always the feeling of something that you don’t have, something missing. It’s a city that keeps you anxious.”

Emma Corrin Covers Vogue US August 2022 Lensed by Jamie Hawkesworth

I know we are all very rattled over the anti-trans legislation in red states, but then Roe got shot down, too. AOC’s activism is very focused on Christian fascism and white nationalism in this moment. The end of our imperfect democracy is in sight — if we don’t fight this back by the 2024 election.

People I respect say “It’s do or die time,” and they are not exaggerating.

AOC is not worried about “he, she, it, they, them . . . “ in this moment. We are focused on the American Taliban increasingly riding roughshod over all of us. No disrespect intended to pronouns.

Nicola Peltz Beckham Goes Glam but Talks Love and Family in Tatler UK

Nicola Peltz Beckham covers the August 2022 issue of Tatler Magazine, interviewed by Ellie Austin about newlywed life with Brooklyn. Sophie Pera styles Beckham in Brandon Maxwell, Dundas, Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci, Michael Kors, Richard Quinn, Saint Laurent by Anthony Vaccarello, Versace by Fendi and more for images by Ellen von Unwerth [IG].

Speaking about growing up one of eight children in a very successful family who didn’t inherit wealth, Mrs. Beckham reflects that she also felt supported in her choices: “ ‘My dad always says, “I don’t care what you do in life, as long as you are fully committed and you work.”’

Dad was a Trump supporter, including hosting a re-election fundraiser for Donald Trump in February 2020 at his Florida home. Neither Nicola or her mother Claudia Heffner Peltz were supportive of the event and didn’t attend. The senior Mr. Peltz broke with Trump on January 5, 2021.

Lines of communication in the Peltz family seem to operate on an open and non-judgmental channel. How refreshing.

6-Degrees: Hindu Nationalists Burning Hillary Posters, A $1.5 Million Bounty for a Dead Deepika Padukone, and Ivanka Trump Rolling Into India

On this first morning in post-Roe America, Bollywood star Deepika Padukone is on my mind. She occupies my brain space — not because of her recent appointment as a Louis Vuitton ambassador and not because she “stole the show” in Cannes in early June, appointed as a member of the 2022 Cannes Festival nine-person jury.

Vogue India Interview

Padukone acknowledges in her Vogue India May 2022 cover story — a conversation between the actor and Faye D’Souza, edited and excerpted by Sadaf Shaikh — that she was pleased to be honored as a TIME 100 Impact Award 2022 recipient.

She’s here to talk her casual, tomboy style preferences — Red Carpet glam nights not included.

Louis Vuitton and Deepika Padukone make a good team.
