Katie Holmes’s Outfits Revolve Around These 9 Spring Basics
For most of us, spring is about sensible investments for the warmer months, such as a new pair of sandals or a throw-it-all-in tote bag. Items need to be about quality and reliability, and so this means many of us tend to lean on classics that we can wear for decades. Katie Holmes is the best example of the benefits of assembling a timeless spring capsule wardrobe. Whenever we clock her out and about in New York City, she reliably sticks to an arsenal of simple but elevated items—the very sort we’d like to populate our wardrobes with. She has quite a minimalistic aesthetic when it comes to dressing and sticks to a neutral colour palette of camel, white, cream and navy, with the odd pop of colour. All in all, her looks make for a very chic capsule, which ...
So Many Guests Wore This Easy Dress Trend to the Beckham-Peltz Wedding
There’s always a niggling bit of concern that you’ll turn up to a special event— say, a wedding— and someone else will be wearing the exact same outfit as you are. This has actually happened to me before, and although we were able to laugh it off, the initial moment when you realise you have a sartorial doppelgänger in close proximity is awkward to say the least. This, however, didn’t seem to bother the guests in attendance at Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz’s wedding this past weekend, as many of them— a staggering amount, actually— opted to wear the same dress trend. Okay, so they weren’t the exact same dresses, but I did find it interesting that this specific style of dress was so prevalent at the nuptials. In fact, it was even worn by the Mother of the Groom; a woman who needs no int...
Juicy Gone Crazy: Jussie Smollett Drops Bars Claiming He’s Innocent
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Chicago Tribune / Getty Fresh off of his release from jail after being convicted of filing a false report, Jussie Smollett is still proclaiming his innocence – this time in a new rap song.

Bad Gyal Billionaire: Rihanna Makes Debut on The ‘Forbes’ List
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Kevin Mazur / Getty Rihanna continues to reach new plateaus of success, as it has been confirmed that she’s the newest addition to Forbes’ list of the world’s billionaires. The singer and entrepreneur made the annual tally of billionaires back in August 2021 with an estimated net worth of $1.7 billion, placing her at 1,729 out of 2,668 on the list.

Fenty Beauty raked in $550 million in revenue in 2020. Another component is her 30 percent stake in the Savage x Fenty lingerie line, which raised approximately $115 million in series B funding leading to a $1 billion...
Lil Uzi Vert Announces Breakup With City Girls Rapper JT Because Of Old Tweet?
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Johnny Nunez / Getty Rapper Lil Uzi Vert appears to have just been dumped by City Girls rapper JT, and their breakup comes with a few lessons. First, it just isn’t smart for young-ish couples who haven’t been together long to get tattoos of each other’s names. You might also want to put off renting out Nickelodeon studios and buying your significant other a McLaren for her 29th birthday if you don’t know if y’all are going to make it to her 30th (It’s like 3 Stacks said, “You can plan a pretty picnic but you can’t predict the weather,” and a lot of folks just kept jamming without heeding the words). Related Stories But anyway, that’s all just a bunch of rich negro sh*t that’s well above most of our pay grades. The real moral to this break-up story is simp...
