5 Haircuts That Will Trick People Into Thinking You Have 3 Times More Hair
Ever since I became aware of my hair back in middle school when I finally retired my beloved slick soccer ponytail, I’ve lamented my fine, thin locks. And after becoming a beauty editor, it’s become my mission to find out which haircuts are best for feigning the look of fuller, thicker hair. Here’s what I’ve learned: it’s all about the optical illusions your stylist creates in addition to how you care for and maintain your cut at home. “If you have fine or thin hair, the haircut you choose is super important,” explains celebrity hairstylist Ted Gibson. “In general, blunter lines are always better, and if you do opt for layers, keep them minimal. Bobs, lobs, long hair that’s roughly one length, and pixies are great for this type of ...

This Australian Brand Has Gained A Very Fashionable Following
I love Australian brands. As an Aussie Fashion Editor, that much basically comes with the territory. Though, if you’re after my professional opinion, resort wear and summer staples are where our designers really shine. As a country with a warm climate, Australians spend much of their time in summer attire, so by default we know what we’re talking about when it comes to summer fashion. I’m always particularly proud when I see our brands garner worldwide attention, and whether it be an influencer in France or Denmark, it’s always great to see an Aussie brand gaining a fashionable following internationally. Lately, I’ve noticed influencers dotted across the globe, sporting Sydney-based label Posse. The brand specialises in summer-ready staples crafted ...
2021 Acura TLX Type S Horsepower Revealed, Outguns Audi S4
When Acura pulled the sheets off the new TLX sedan earlier this year, it revealed key specs for the regular-grade model—but left out a few details about the zestier Type S trim, namely, how much horsepower and torque its turbocharged V-6 kicks out. Well, Acura has finally come out with those numbers, and they’re much more competitive than anything put forth by the old TLX. The 2021 Acura TLX Type S’s 3.0-liter V-6 will make 355 horsepower and 354 lb-ft of torque. That horsepower figure edges the Audi S4’s 349, but falls shy of the BMW M340i’s 382 horsepower. Other sport-focused six-cylinder stalwarts in the entry-luxury segment are more powerful, too, including Infiniti’s Q50 Red Sport 400 and Mercedes-AMG’s C43. However, the TLX has taken a big step for...
Tubular! These Are Almost Definitely the 2021 Ford Bronco’s Tube Doors
We can finally start speculating about the sort of accessories the 2021 Ford Bronco will have at its disposal as the Blue Oval’s off-road SUV looks to one-up the legendary Jeep Wrangler. Admittedly, Ford hasn’t released much in the way of details regarding the sort of add-ons it plans to offer on the model, but that hasn’t stopped curious fans from digging in and trying to figure it out for themselves. One particularly motivated member of the Bronco6G forum recently dug up an image that shows a Bronco with a set of rad-looking tube doors. We previously published information on the Bronco’s removable doors, including the possibility of tube doors appearing on the model. This is the first time we’ve seen an image of the tube doors outside of a patent drawing, th...
You Can Buy These Items from the Fyre Festival Merchandise Collection Seized from Billy McFarland
Thanks to the mythical implosion of the dumpster fire that was Fyre Festival, you can now get your hands on a memento from the notorious event. The US Marshals Service is auctioning off merchandise seized from the festival’s disgraced founder, Billy McFarland, to augment efforts to offer restitution to his victims. From July 30th through August 13th, you can bid on 126 items, including loungewear, bracelets, and retrospectively humiliating tokens emblazoned with the phrase, “a conspiracy to change the entertainment world.” According to US Marshal Ralph Sozio, McFarland was planning to sell the merchandise even after his arrest following the festival’s historic descent into ignominy. “The proceeds from the sale of these items, all traceable to McFarland’s...
Exclusive: U.S.-Spec 2021 Hyundai Santa Fe SUV Caught In the Wild
Hyundai tore the wraps off of the updated 2021 Santa Fe crossover SUV in early June. But, that was the global model. Thanks to the sharp sights of a MotorTrend reader, though, we’re finally able to get our first look at the North American-spec version of the updated Hyundai model. Predictably, our version of the South Korean brand’s crossover SUV looks almost identical to the 2021 Santa Fe the company already unveiled abroad. This includes the model’s new mug, which sports a wide grille bookended by new headlights with integrated LED daytime running lights that appear to connect with a separate set of lamps located near the base of the crossover’s hood. See all 30 photos Those with keen eyes, however, will notice a handful of small alterations to this preprodu...
I Think This Is the Coolest Brand of 2020—and It Has High-Street Prices
With a brand name like House of Sunny, it’s perhaps no surprise that the aesthetic is joyful and perfect for holidays and heatwaves. The London-based brand isn’t actually that new—it was founded back in 2011—however over the past two years it has really found its groove. This summer there are two items in particular that are transitioning the label from an industry secret into more of a household name—the Daybreak cardi and the Hockney dress. Like any cult items, they are currently sold out, with much anticipation surround another release. This week Kendall Jenner, an already known fan of the brand, shared a picture of her wearing the Hockney—a green knitted slip dress with lilypad swirls inspired by the artwork of David Hockney. This isn’t the only item in...
This is Officially My Favourite Way To Wear a Dress
I know it’s not really fair to write-off a whole fashion category, but I’ve never really been much of a dress person. I have a fair selection in my wardrobe, so I’m not totally averse, however I know some people who live in them and love nothing more than the swishy feel of a flowing skirt. Yet, I have recently identified the importance of shoe pairings when it comes to wearing a dress, and there is one particular combination I’ve fallen for in 2020 that may just see me in dresses for the rest of the year (although let’s not get ahead of ourselves). I recently purchased the most beautiful pair of cowboy boots from Depop, in no small part inspired by a smock-dress-and-boot combo Harriet Stewart re...
This Cult Lipstick Has Been a Best-Seller Since 1971
At some point though, I forgot about Black Honey, likely moving on to the matte formulations that began to dominate the lipstick market. I think I wore MAC’s Ruby Woo for four years straight. Fast-forward to May of this year, however, when, in an attempt to keep myself busy while being housebound, I took to cleaning out my beauty archives—products I’d packaged up during my 2019 move from London to Edinburgh that hadn’t seen the light of day since. After sorting through two plastic boxes, I finally reached the base of the third where nestled in the lip edge surrounding the base, was a long, silver wand; a forgotten tube of Black Honey. Instantly overcome with overwhelming nostalgia, I immediately slicked it across my lips. Of course, this wasn’t the exact B...
The 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser Is the Same Old SUV as Before
The old-school body-on-frame SUV remains mostly unchanged, too. The only significant difference for 2021 is that the Heritage Edition now gets the option of a third row of seats and two new exterior colors: Classic Silver Metallic and Magnetic Gray Metallic join Midnight Black Metallic and Blizzard Pearl. All Heritage Edition cars come with a model-specific set of sweet-looking BBS-sourced 18-inch wheels. See all 37 photos The power plant for this mammoth SUV is the same 5.7-liter V-8 as before and it once again churns out 381 hp and 401 lb-ft of torque. Likewise, the Land Cruiser’s hydraulically controlled sway bars (known as Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System in Toyota-speak), hill-descent control, multi-terrain select, and the lockable Torsen center differential are still all ...
Yes, Please: 2021 Ford Bronco Imagined as Iconic Rod Hall Race Truck
If Rod Hall ever had the opportunity to race a new, 2021 Ford Bronco, we think it just might resemble this rendering. And odds are he would have left the competition in the dust. Rod Hall dedicated his life to racing four-wheel-drive vehicles, accomplishing one of the most impressive racing resumes ever seen in the professional off-road racing world by winning over 160 major events and a variety of SCORE, HDRA, and BiTD championship titles. One of his coolest accomplishments was racing in every single one of the first fifty SCORE Baja 1000, one of the most prestigious off-road races in the world. From its inception in 1967 (then called the NORRA Mexican 1000 Rally) to his last start racing a Hummer in 2017 when he was nearly 80, Hall collected 25 class wins and thousands of memories. One o...
