Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian  After making their relationship Instagram official on Valentine’s Day, Kardashian showed off her new nail art and the Blink-182 drummer’s new body art that of her name on his chest Friday (April 9). Luke Bryan and Caroline Boyer While visiting the American Idol set on Monday, Jason Aldean let fans know that Luke Bryan has “his wife’s initials tattooed on his behind.” But it’s not the only body ink he has featuring Caroline Boyer’s name: The “Country Girl” singer told Good Housekeeping in a 2013 interview that they got each other’s initials inked on their ring fingers one Valentine’s Day. Jason Aldean and Brittany Kerr The country singer himself go...

Military Vehicles Prepare to Invade the 2021 Mint 400 Off-Road Race

There’s a new competition class in the works for the 2021 Mint 400 off-road desert race, and it’s dedicated exclusively to military vehicles. The class will allow manufacturers and owners of historic and modern mil-spec vehicles to race against one another—a uniquely unusual type of convoy for combat-ready vehicles. This news comes on the heels of the race’s recently announced electric vehicle competition class. See all 6 photos What’s the rationale for a racing class dedicated to military vehicles? Machines from U.S. military vehicle makers, including those of GM Defense, Flyer Defense, Oshkosh, AM General, and Polaris Defense, are more than capable of tackling the rugged off-road desert terrain of the Mint 400. In addition to it being a great proving ground for mi...

How Fast Was Tiger Woods Driving Before His Crash?

The Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department held a news conference today with updates on star golfer Tiger Woods’ single-vehicle crash on February 23 and revealed his Genesis GV80 SUV hit a top speed of 87 mph during the incident. The department blamed pedal misapplication (pressing the gas instead of the brake in a moment of panic), unsafe speed, and an inability to negotiate the curve in the road. The posted speed limit is 45 mph. Woods was driving northbound on Hawthorne Boulevard in the city of Rolling Hills Estates in a Genesis GV80 luxury SUV at the time of the crash. This section of road is a steep downhill that sheriff’s representatives called out as having an abnormally high number of crashes due to speeding. See all 19 photos The Crash Itself: A Recap According to Capt...

2022 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross First Drive: Improved but not Better Than the Competition

Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross Full Overview Mitsubishi is picking up speed. Not dramatically—think a brisk walk compared to its prior shamble—but the Japanese automaker is on a bit of a roll with its new products. We were duly impressed with the all-new, ground-up redesign of the 2022 Outlander, a three-row SUV that bodes well for the company’s direction. Conversely, the Outlander drive program also slotted us behind the wheel of the refreshed 2022 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross, a compact SUV that reminds us the brand still has work to do. That’s not to say the 2022 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross is a bad compact crossover. But the old—and new—Eclipse Cross isn’t at the top of our list of favorite small SUVs. The refreshed model somewhat relegates the old version to memory, but it’...

Oversteer Explorer: Ford’s 3-Row SUV Adds RWD Enthusiast ST and Platinum Trims

The gatekeepers at the Ford Motor Company have graciously decided to lower the barrier of entry to performance-oriented 2021 Explorer ST with a new model. Dubbed the Ford Explorer Enthusiast ST, the trim delivers the same underhood goods as the regular ST in a cheaper, rear-drive package. (The regular ST has AWD standard.) It sounds like a win to us, even if Ford’s decision to forgo the EnthusiaST name is an SUV-sized missed opportunity. Punny naming schemes aside, the Explorer Enthusiast ST is a solid value, at least on paper. The standard Explorer ST starts at $54,075, and the Enthusiast ST knocks more than $4,000 off that number, with a starting sum of $49,995. That price includes the same turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 from the regular Explorer ST, which continues to p...

These Spring Jeans Are Selling Out Fast at Zara, Monki and Free People

1. Before they were even released online, both myself and Joy Montgomery, Who What Wear’s shopping editor, decided that we needed to get Monki’s squiggly-print monochrome jeans and matching knitted crop top (pictured above). Neither of us would normally wear printed jeans (in fact, I very rarely wear denim at all), and both of us often buy vintage instead of new high-street items, but here we were, poised to snap them up. Sadly for us, within minutes of coming online earlier this week, they had sold out in every size from a UK 4 up to a 20. A similar floral-stamped style at Zara sold out within mere moments this week, and it also came with a matching crop top. A coincidence? I think not. Co-ords continue to be popular and have become even more present&n...

This Basic Cos Top Will Make Any Outfit Look Expensive

Working in fashion is like playing a constant game of Goldilocks. You’re always looking for ‘just the right’ piece. Of course, however you view a perfect item depends on your own personal tastes but sometimes there are pieces that are universal in their appeal. One such item is the vest top. This staple becomes part of our wardrobes from our teen years and then never leaves it. But like many before me, I’ve struggled to discover the ideal fit and shape. Last year I spotted Brittany Bathgate wearing a pretty perfect version of a white vest top by Theory. However, it was slightly out of my price range.  You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined what a dating should be. It begins with giving you back power.

2021 Volvo V90 R-Design First Test: This Swede Indulges Our Big Wagon Love

Volvo V90 Full Overview As unabashed station wagon fans, we were pleased to learn that the Volvo V90 has proved to be more popular than Volvo anticipated. When Volvo introduced the V90 for the 2018 model year, it intended it as a special-order item, anticipating that North American buyers would prefer the plastic-clad Cross Country version or the big XC90 SUV instead. But demand for the S90 variant was higher than expected, and V90s are now regularly built for dealer stock. When Volvo announced an updated version for 2021, it seemed like a perfectly plausible excuse to get this old favorite in for testing. The Volvo V90 wagon is not an entirely unfamiliar face at MotorTrend. Our sister publication Automobile had a 2019 V90 Inscription in its long-term fleet, and we’d be lying if we s...

A Modern Chevy Silverado 454 SS? Here’s What It Would Look Like

We love the classic Chevrolet 454 SS, but even the staunchest fans will admit that the other muscle trucks of the day—Ford’s F-150 Lightning, the smaller but wilder GMC Syclone—had it beat on actual muscle. Sure, biggest engine in the lightest body style is a time-honored formula, but the torquey 454 truck motor wasn’t as special as its rivals. For cool factor, though, the 454 SS packed plenty, and a bit of mystique, too. After all, Chevy hasn’t built a follow-up, a true muscle truck—although the 2003 Chevy Silverado SS came close. So, what would a modern 454 SS look like? We asked talented artist Abimelec Arellano imagine just that, and to hew as close as possible to the original design in doing so. Single-cab pickups are a nonstarter in today’s truck market, but t...

5 Outfits That’ll Make You Feel Like You’re on Holiday Even When You’re Not

From linen shirts and printed dresses to pops of pink and sunny accessories, & Other Stories’s L.A. edit pretty much summarises what we want to be wearing when the world (well, the UK anyway) starts to open up. We’re looking for versatile separates that can just as easily be worn lounging on the sofa as they can spruced-up with heeled sandals and gold jewellery. This collection well and truly delivers on this front, and we can’t help but start mentally compiling outfits in preparation for April 12.

The Easy Two-Part Outfit I Keep Seeing This Spring

You don’t need to scroll very far on Instagram to see that oversize is the silhouette du jour. From stylish celebs (hello, Billie Eilish and Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen) to discerning fashion influencers (we’re looking at you, Alexis Foreman), the presiding fashion mood of the last few years has very much been the bigger the better. For 2021, there has been one particular way that this has manifested: the humble blazer-and-skirt pairing. Specific though it may sound, I guarantee that once you clock the pairing, you’ll suddenly see it wherever you go. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

2021 Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 PDK First Test: Sharp Numbers, Sharper Experience

Porsche 718 Cayman Full Overview Perked up yet, Porsche purists? It’s another game of PDK versus manual, with the former now offered in the 2021 Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 and Boxster Spyder for the first time. Pick one, pick both—you’re a winner either way. But how much of a winner are you? Let’s run down just how much quicker the dual-clutch is compared to the stick. Oops, spoiler alert. Well, both come with a rear spoiler, but that’s not important. As we said, the 718 Cayman GT4 and Boxster Spyder now get Porsche’s wicked-smaht and laser-quick seven-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission as a $3,210 option over the standard six-speed manual transmission. For the those unfamiliar with the GT4 and its lineage, this new optional gearbox is a bigger deal than it might ...
