Victoria Beckham Is Summer's Most Stylish Rebel

It looks like Victoria Beckham is switching things up, yet again. At the start of the month, the designer put a citrus-colored twist on her uniform and her posh stamp on suits and pajama dressing. Tonight at Christie’s in London, where she arrived to toast her son Brooklyn’s book debut, Beckham debuted a sleek alternative to her usual punchy palette that retained her cool approach to tailoring.

Beckham’s midnight blue and black combo was a total knockout from top to bottom. Her double-breasted, peak lapel blazer was the ideal foil for her foulard-inspired top, as the piece helped maintain the look’s structure. Equally fluid trousers amped up the louche ’70s vibes, while a discreet ladybag sans chain gave the outfit a clean finish.

Marion Cotillard Finds the Ultimate Concert Tee at Cannes

Marion Cotillard may be associated with the kind of classic French style she exemplified as the face of Lady Dior, but her Cannes wardrobe has been far from traditional. From arriving in sporty Y-Project at the photocall for her latest film, Ishmael’s Ghosts, to donning a custom Michael Halpern jumpsuit at the Chopard Trophy event, Cotillard and her stylist Elliot Bliss have kept things modern and edgy throughout her time at the festival. And her latest look may be her most daring yet.

Joining the luminaries of international film at the photoshoot for Cannes’ 70th anniversary, Cotillard chose a nostalgic t-shirt from Belgian label Filles à Papa which she paired with a lace skirt and glossy red Fendi thigh-high boots. The resulting combination was a sexy contrast to the prim dresses worn by other attendees. Forgoing the standard for unexpected pieces seems to be Cotillard’s preference lately, but her ultimate concert t-shirt was more than a fashion moment. Bearing the likenesses of David Bowie, Michael Jackson, George Michael and Prince and the words “Never Forget,” the shirt was a loving tribute to the music icons of the 80s. At an event all about celebrating the legacy of the past, the choice couldn’t have been more appropriate.

Bella Hadid Makes the Case for Spring Fur

Don’t put away your fur coat just yet. Bella Hadid stepped out earlier today in a duster that was light enough to transition into spring. While Hadid has sported a similar look before, her latest came in a brighter, bolder shade, ideally suited to the new season. With its distinct mustard hue, the coat recalled the Guo Pei masterpiece Rihanna wore to the Met Gala in May 2015. And if Rihanna can do it, well, Hadid can, too.

Hadid’s pelts were a nice contrast to her black T-shirt and RtA jeans, which, with the straight-leg silhouette, felt right in line with her often ’90s-minded fashion sense. She topped things off with a newsboy cap and tinted sunglasses, which also had a certain throwback slant. A pair of patent leather boots with sturdy platform heels elevated the off-duty moment and tied in with a shoulder bag in the same finish. Here’s hoping Hadid turns up on this year’s Met Gala red carpet with just as much stylish swagger.

Paris Jackson Makes Her Late Night Debut in the Perfect LBD

Between sitting front row at Givenchy’s Fall menswear and couture collection in January and appearing on the red carpet at this year’s Grammy Awards, Paris Jackson has been making her way through the rising star milestones. With magazine covers and millions of followers online, the daughter of pop legend Michael Jackson has officially joined the generation of celebrity children turned fashion influencers, and last night on The Tonight Show she continued her streak of winning looks. Stepping into the hot seat with host Jimmy Fallon, Jackson chose a star-patterned little black dress from Rebecca Vallance. She showcased the easygoing style she’s becoming known for by mixing the feminine ruffled mini with crimson Dr. Martens.



Sharing her thoughts on first crushes and favorite albums, Jackson gamely participated in the familiar late night antics. Her appealing yet affordable dress—the design retails for under $300—made it the right look for playing a messy round of egg Russian roulette with Fallon and transitioning to evening with the addition of rounded sunglasses and vintage leather jacket. Jackson and her stylist Sonia Young have been smart about maintaining the hippie sensibility of her off-duty wardrobe when dressing for important events. Even when she’s polished and ready for her close-up, Jackson’s choices retain an every-girl appeal that’s refreshing.

Ashley Biden's New Sweatshirt Line Is Equal Parts Style and Social Conscience

 Ashley Biden—as in former Vice President Joe Biden’s daughter—really didn’t have a choice but to go into public service, as she tells it.

“The passion started at a very young age,” Biden tells Glamour. “My dad is a lifelong public servant; my mom was a public-school teacher—it’s in my DNA.”

And that meant Biden got her start early. “When I was a kid, I always really loved animals, and I found out that Bonne Bell lip gloss was testing on animals, so I organized my school to start writing letters to [the company],” she says. “Then I became obsessed with the plight of dolphins getting stuck in tuna nets. My dad connected me with Congressman Barbara Boxer, who I nicknamed the ‘dolphin lady,’ and she got me onto the floor to help lobby Republican congressman for The Dolphin Protection Consumer Information Act.”

From there, Biden says her interest grew to a focus on social justice and “the unfairness people experience through education opportunities.”

Cut to adulthood, and Biden has 15 years of experience fighting for social equality under her belt and is currently the executive director of the Delaware Center for Justice.

“Every day is really powerful,” Biden says of her work. “Last night one of the case managers got someone a job out of prison, and she went at nine o’clock at night to get him a uniform for his new job, and snapped a photo of him just looking so proud to be back to work and in that uniform. The work we are doing is impacting real people.”

Included in Biden’s hectic schedule is one of her favorite parts of the job, she says—teaching classes to inmates, including one on the science behind substance abuse (in fact, Biden hopped on the phone with Glamour having just left one of her classes).

“We focus on neurobiology of the brain and how it relates to addiction," Biden says. "I asked the women in the class, ‘What have you guys been taught before?’ And they said everything they’ve really ever been informed about is side effects from medications. Well, that’s not getting to the root cause.”

While Biden is keeping her day job, she has a new passion project, a line of sweatshirts called Livelihood, that marries two of her favorite thing—fashion and social work.

Sold exclusively on Gilt, the unisex line is made in the U.S. and priced between $79 and $99. Most important: All proceeds go toward supporting local charitable causes. Initially, funds will go to education, workplace development, and job placement initiatives in Wilmington, Delaware (where Biden was born), and Anacostia, in the District of Columbia (where Biden got her start as a social worker), but she has her sights set on expanding from there.

“The most effective social programs are in local communities,” Biden says. “They know best where funding should go.”

To the same tune, Biden is eager to get more people involved in local politics, which is why she started the interactive website getinvolvedinyourhood.com.

“We have to create more awareness around the importance of civic participation,” Biden says. “Oftentimes we go out and vote during the presidential races, but then stay home during the local elections. We need to figure out in the coming weeks and months how to get people to understand governance better. People talk a lot about apathy, but I think it has more to do with knowledge about how the government works. I wish there was an easy way to explain to people why it’s just as important vote in city council races as it is for the president. These people are the CEOs of our lives.”
