This Low-Maintenance Haircut Is Set to Be Huge in 2021
So how do we proceed? Well, most experts we have spoken to advise that 2021 could be time to embrace a hair change. However, unlike big hair trends of yesteryear (blunt bob, we’re looking at you), the It style for 2021 is set to be a whole lot easier to deal with. At a time when we’re all looking for a hairstyle that’s fuss-free, easy to manage, and versatile, it’s no surprise that the iconic ’70s shag is making a comeback. Revlon Professional global artistic ambassador Mark Leeson says, “The shag is the ultimate undone statement haircut. It’s choppy and full of texture and makes for a refreshing change to long, one-length hair. On a daily basis, you don’t need to do much to a well-cut shag style, as the texture and shape are already cut into it.” “The feathered texture works fo...
Here’s How Katie Holmes Made Skinny Jeans and a Hoodie Look Luxurious
When it comes to casual outfit ideas involving jeans, do as Katie Holmes does, because she keeps nailing it, and her latest denim outfit further proves it. An outfit that includes skinny jeans and a hoodie isn’t particularly luxurious, even if said jeans and hoodie are designer, but Holmes made it so this week while out and about in NYC. So let’s break it down. When she woke up that morning, Holmes reached for light-wash skinny jeans and an orange hoodie. Sure, that’s a cool outfit. But then perhaps she thought, How can I make this outfit a little bit chicer? Then came a camel coat (which is a no-fail way to make any outfit look expensive), lace-up ankle boots, a fedora, and a shoulder bag. Voila, you have a very luxurious-looking outfit that’s e...
Affordable Racing Sim Gear Review: Logitech G923 Wheel and GTR GTA Pro Simulator
As difficult as it may be to believe, take a look outside from your work-from-home space: it’s already November 2020. For much of the country, that means cold temperatures, and plenty of rainy, snow, and ice in the near future. Those conditions conspire with the pandemic to bring a big slow-down to the track-day and autocross events we enthusiasts love, at least until next spring. If you read our previous guide to sim-racing wheels, you’ll know there are some affordable options to get you started. Here, we take a closer look at the new Logitech G923 gaming wheel, and the GTR GTA Pro simulator rig, two potentially key components of an affordable sim-racing setup for home use. While they may not provide as complex an experience as the multi-hundred-thousand-dollar pro-grade setup...
Buy This 807-HP Mopar Crate Engine, Give Your Car Demon Power
We’ll always miss the Challenger Demon, the limited-production street-legal drag-strip-demolisher that wowed back in 2017. We’re glad Dodge revived much of its spirit with the new Super Stock, and in case that isn’t enough for you, Mopar is now offering a new crate engine that can give your project car the heartbeat of both mighty Dodges. The familiar 6.2-liter supercharged Hemi V-8 delivers 807 hp, the same output as the Super Stock and 1 pony less than in the Demon. The crate engine’s torque rating matches the Demon at 717 lb-ft, and it is the most powerful muscle-car engine Mopar has ever made available to home builders, at least when it comes to production-based engines. See all 27 photos A less powerful version of the engine is also found in the Challenger and ...
Liquid Tesla? EV Automaker’s $250 Tequila Is Already Sold Out
“Merchandising!” Short of “the Schwartz,” there’s arguably nothing more important to Spaceballs‘ Yogurt than merchandising. It seems Tesla’s chief executive officer, Elon Musk, took this to heart, too. Not only does his company’s electric vehicles feature nods to the 1987 Mel Brooks comedy (we’re looking at you, Ludicrous mode and Model S Plaid), his other venture, The Boring Company, leaned on Yogurt’s “Spaceballs the Flamethrower” joke to build and sell a number of so-called “Not a Flamethrower” flamethrowers. The latest bit of merchandising by Musk, though, comes in the form of Tesla Tequila. That’s right, Tesla, the automaker, is selling booze right through its website (albeit fulfilled ...
The Trending High-Street Puffers That Have the Fashion Editor Stamp of Approval
It’s not often that one of the season’s most popular coats also happens to be the most practical item of clothing to have in your wardrobe for the winter months. Repeat after me: All hail the power of the puffer. Previously considered a purely sporty, practical item of clothing, the puffer coat has well and truly been given the fashion treatment this year, with its simple silhouette lending itself to the pervading minimalist aesthetic that has dominated the last 12 months.

The Knitwear Trends I’d Happily Live In for the Next Six Months
As we’re spending more time indoors and at home this year, many of us are prioritising comfort and ease when getting dressed, and this will have a significant impact on the trends for autumn and winter 2020 and beyond. Loungewear will continue to be a growing category this year. However, fashion buyers I have spoken to expect that instead of joggers, hoodies and sweatshirts, there will be a demand for more elevated options, with knitted co-ords and layered separates being key sellers. “Leisurewear will continue to grow but in a modern way from brands such as Les Tien,” says Liane Wiggins, head of womenswear buying at MatchesFashion. The knitted dress is set to be a hero buy for autumn, as designers such as Jil Sander and Jacquemus have created beautifu...
2021 Hyundai Sonata N Line Costs More Than Honda, Toyota Competition
At $24,595, the entry-level 2021 Hyundai Sonata undercuts the price of the base 2021 Honda Accord and 2021 Toyota Camry by $1,130 and $1,370, respectively. Logically, the racy Sonata N Line ought to maintain a similar price advantage to the similarly sporty Accord Sport 2.0T and Camry TRD. Except logic seemingly falls short here, as the Hyundai’s $34,195 price makes it $1,330 and $1,015 more expensive than its Honda and Toyota counterparts. That’s right, the Sonata N Line is a Hyundai that fails to undercut key rivals’ base prices. See all 23 photos Still, this doesn’t make the Sonata N Line a bad value. With its 290-hp turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine, the Sonata N Line manages to better the output of the Accord Sport 2.0T’s turbocharged 2.0-liter ...
Ford Mustang GT500 Predator Crate Motor: Turn Everything Into Prey
The Mustang GT500 rewrites rulebook regarding expectations for Ford’s pony car. Not only is it the most powerful production Mustang ever, it also has a snappy dual-clutch gearbox, can be had with carbon-fiber wheels, offers some of the most friendly and capable handling on the market today, and runs the 1/4 mile in 11.3 seconds at 131.6 mph—all while being less expensive than a base Porsche 911. But what if your inner rebel wants to unleash its 700-plus-horsepower fury in some other car—what ever shall you do? Ford has just answered that question: The GT500’s supercharged 5.2-liter 90-degree V-8 “Predator” engine will soon be available for purchase as a crate motor courtesy of Ford Performance. There’s no word yet on how much horsepower or torque the crat...
We’re Dismissing Predictable Nail Colours—Here’s What We’re Wearing Instead
Luckily, we derive an insane amount of satisfaction from curating a fresh, new, compliment-inducing polish aesthetic each season, so the emotional blow of cooler temperatures and fewer hours of daylight is ever-so-slightly softened by the idea of having more time for our self-care and at-home mani rituals. November is smack-dab in the middle of fall fever, so even though we’re not quite ready to go full-on holiday with our nail aesthetic, we’re ready to lean into the rich festiveness of the season. That said, we never want to be overly predictable with what we’re wearing on our tips, so we’ve scouted all the best nail polish brands and all of their sparkling, just-launched collections for crème de la crème November nail color options. Here, we’ve fou...
11 Co-Ords That’ll Make Your Winter Wardrobe So Much Cosier
Knitted co-ords became my new favourite thing last autumn. Pre-styled enough to feel considered and more directional than a mere winter dress, but essentially matchy and therefore easy to throw on, this is cosiness combined with being pulled together. These skirt-and-jumper combos always look sophisticated (just make sure they aren’t too clingy), yet they couldn’t be simpler to throw on each morning. So it’s perhaps no surprise, then, that for 2020 (aka the year of the cosy co-ord), this look has been spotted all over Instagram. Last year it was a khaki roll-neck and midi from ASOS that was worn by everyone from Erica Davies to Jessica Skye, but this year there are so many iterations around. Depending on how brave you are, it h...
