I have a theory that we’re subconsciously drawn to the trends and tastes of the era we were born into. For example, I freakin’ love yacht rock, and it just so happens I was born right when The Doobie Brothers’ “What a Fool Believes” was topping the charts. Coincidence? I sincerely think not. And it might explain why Selena Gomez, …

The star’s beloved curtain bangs were present and accounted for, of course, as was her often-imitated, Tiktok-viral flushed, blushed baby pink cheek.

There was a time when we could easily predict what Hailey Bieber was going to do with her nails. The queen of the glazed donut manicure almost exclusively wore shimmery, pale polishes, to the point that the look became synonymous with her. But lately, she’s been throwing some curveballs. Hey, they say motherhood inevitably changes a person, so maybe that …

When I was in my tweens in the late ‘90s and early 2000s, my friends and I spent hours poring over teen magazines, especially the supersized prom issues. Sure, we had a few years until our own proms, but there was nothing better than choosing your dream dress and matching hair and makeup from those glossy pages. When I saw …
