2021 Nissan Kicks First Test: Content Rich
Nissan Kicks Full Overview Consumer hunger for crossovers of all shapes and sizes has led automakers to respond to the demand by filling every niche imaginable with vehicles aimed to serve specific purposes. The Nissan Kicks is one such vehicle that does battle in the subcompact crossover segment, which contains nearly 20 vehicles. We spent two weeks testing a 2021 Nissan Kicks SR on the heels of a recent refresh that added more standard content across the various trim levels, including disc brakes and an 8.0-inch touch screen in addition to other touches. We then put it through our testing regimen to see if these improvements were enough to keep the spunky CUV fresh for a new model year. Slow Is the New Fun?

Serpentwithfeet Talks Empowering Rendition of ‘You Don’t Own Me’ for Orbitz New Pride Campaign
The one-minute, Cass Bird-directed clip finds LGBTQ+ travelers (including serpent himself) living life to the fullest in sunny Miami, Florida. “A lot of people in the world right now are reimagining how we engage with others, and I think every campaign, every article, every book, every tweet that we see helps to reshape our world and reshape the way that we engage with our neighbors,” serpent explained of the ad’s importance. “I think that this campaign is definitely doing its part which is wonderful.” While traveling has been put on pause due to the ongoing pandemic, serpent knows exactly where he’s headed once life goes back to normal. “I would really love to go to Brazil,” he told Billboard. “I’ve never been and I’ve wanted...
How the Fashion Set Are Wearing Spring’s Top Trends
Seeing how runway trends will transition into real-life is always exciting. At the start of every season, we share with you our insights on what the defining trends of the next six months will be, but how they actually pan out on the streets is anyone’s guess. Take pink, for example. It was easily the most prevalent colour in the spring collections, with models wearing the shade top-to-toe. It was even slicked across their eyes, dabbed on their cheeks, and blotted on their lips. Now, we may not wear the shade with such vigour, but we might choose to tap into the aesthetic by way of a dress or an accessory—an interpretation, if you will. And here, we’re going to discover how some of our favourite influencers are interpreting spring’s top trends. Since they’re always ...
I Dare You to Scroll Through This Colourful Shopping Edit Without Smiling
According to MATCHESFASHION’s spring/summer 2021 report, the joyful every day is set to be a key fashion theme for the coming year, and after a long year of lockdown, this is exactly what we need right now. “If there is one thing that has made me smile, it has been seeing bright bursts of colour on Zoom calls,” explains Fashion and Buying Director Natalie Kingham. “Many designers worked with a bold palette for spring, including some brilliant day dresses by Valentino, which will translate well however you want to wear them. We also saw bright colour via tie-dye at the Elder Statesman and even the humble Ugg was updated by Molly Goddard in rich green, red, and orange.” This week only, model-turned-actor Jodie Turner-Smith created a shopping edit for Matches, wh...

Kendall Jenner’s Easter Dress Is Unusual for Her, But 8.5 Million People Love It
By now, we all know Kendall Jenner’s style aesthetic quite well: sporty at times, androgynous at others, and always trendy and cool. When she wears dresses or skirts, they’re usually short (unless she’s attending a formal event), so the Easter outfit that she posted to Instagram was a bit surprising, and it has 8.5 million likes and counting. For the holiday, Jenner and the rest of her family celebrated in Palm Springs, where she posed on a golf course in a long, pink Rodarte dress (the same one Selena Gomez wore in her “De Una Vez” video), which she paired with cowboy boots. The puff-sleeve, sweetheart-neckline dress touches on the ’80s throwback trend that’s still percolating. It’s a decidedly different l...

Gwyneth Paltrow Sent Demi Lovato This NSFW Gift
While a “This Smells Like Demi’s Orgasm” candle isn’t available for purchase on Goop’s website, the brand offers an equally frisky “This Smells Like My Vagina” candle for $20 here, boasting notes of “geranium, citrusy bergamot, and cedar absolutes juxtaposed with Damask rose and ambrette seed to put you in mind of fantasy, seduction, and a sophisticated warmth.” Shop the Necessaire “Sex Gel” here, and the Double-Sided Wand vibrator here. Last month, Lovato officially came out as pansexual on an episode of The Joe Rogan Experience. “I also don’t know if I’m going to end up with a guy, so I can’t really see myself maybe getting pregnant,” she said, talking about whether or not ...
I Wear This Easy Outfit Every Week and Never Get Bored Of It
You simply don’t need to talk me into it: I’m obsessed with matching sets. Co-ords have become my go-to in times of fashion need for many reasons. First, they look pulled-together with minimal styling effort required. Then there’s the fact that they magically manage to straddle the tricky smart-casual divide I struggle with. There’s something about dresses that feels a lot more formal and something about mismatched separates that requires a great deal of consideration each morning. Such is the co-ord’s popularity in the land of fashion that it’s made the impressive transition from trend to wardrobe staple, and you’ll now find that many e-commerce websites have entire category pages dedicated to them. You Deserve to Make Money E...
Bridesmaids Who Hate Dresses Will Love These Jumpsuits Instead
Bridesmaid style is another thing that has seen a shake-up. While there are plenty of brides who still enjoy the uniformity of matching outfits, many are forgoing this tradition in favour of more individual looks. For example, mismatched styles are proving a popular approach right now; however, we’ve particularly fallen for the contemporary elegance of bridesmaid jumpsuits. Perfect for friends who don’t feel so comfortable in a dress—or brides who want their attendents in something more unusual—a jumpsuit is the ultimate in grown-up elegance. Flattering, comfortable and dance floor–ready, there are so many styles at a range of price points to choose from. Highlights include Ghost’s buttoned-up pieces, Mango’s styli...
From SJP’s to Diana’s, These Are the 1980s Outfits Worth Copying
Ah, the 1980s. The decade of shoulder pads wider than doorways and hairstyles dependent on whole cans of hair spray was not an easy time for minimalists or shy and retiring types. Many people who lived through the extreme fashions of the day recoil in horror now at the thought of them returning. Eighties outfits were all about ultra-conspicuousness and being noticed. From meringue dresses and rah-rah skirts to leg warmers and stilettos, Spandex and lamé to door-knocker earrings and giant sunglasses, this was the era of OTT style, and the ’90s took a sharp about-turn following the visual overload. Now, with time and distance from this wild fashion period, not all 1980s ensembles seem quite as hideous as they once did. In fact, I’d go so far as ...
The Spring Dress Style That Takes 30 Seconds To Style
The secret to the style’s success lies in its “throw-on-and-go” appeal. Gone are the days of faffing around for hours in the morning, trying to match skirts with blouses and trousers with tops—these smock-like dresses are liberating us from the tyranny of our wardrobes. Plus, they look good with everything: both trainers and knee-high boots, chunky crewnecks and slim-fit roll-necks, smart tailored coats and leather bikers. Have we made ourselves clear enough? There are so many interpretations of this versatile dress trend, so you can feel safe in the knowledge that you’ll find the right one for you. There are knitted iterations, which would look so chic for work with heeled boots, leopard-print styles to pair with ch...
