Merry Christmas — it’s time to use your FSA funds before they go away forever after December 31. And if that acronym means nothing to you, let us break it down. A flexible savings account consists of money sourced from your (pre-tax) paychecks: to be put towards expenses like “deductibles, co-pays, and medical office visits,” per MetLife. Sometimes but not always, employers pitch into this account; in most cases, the total does not roll over into the next year, meaning it operates on a “use it by December 31 or lose it” policy, with the occasional grace period given depending on where you work. This is not the case for an HSA (health savings account), which rolls over yearly and even stays with you between jobs. That being said, while you can certainly also take advantage of HSA to shop the products we’ll be rounding up in just a second, there’s much ...

We know, we know: Christmas isn’t even here yet, so talking about New Year’s Eve plans and outfits is a bit premature. Nonetheless, the end of the year will sneak up on everyone sooner than you can say “mistletoe kiss,” so we seriously recommend starting to peruse your closet for a NYE ensemble that will make you the most memorable guest at the party. And if you can’t find anything suitable for the grand occasion at hand? Why, the best place to shop for some festive threads is at Coach, of course! You might be most familiar with the brand’s wide assortment of celebrity-loved handbag silhouettes, from the bohemian-inspired, Bella Hadid–approved Brooklyn to the classy, Lola Tung–worn Tabby.

Baby, it’s cold outside, meaning we’re all collectively realizing that the decades-old puffers in our closets aren’t going to cut it anymore, while those oh-so-Parisian trench coats just aren’t insulating enough. The simple solution to these woes lies in the common denominator of Selena Gomez’s more-is-more look in “Emilia Perez,” that of Cate Blanchett’s Carol in the eponymous film “Carol,” and Gwyneth Paltrow’s character’s headline-generating, mink-powered ensembles in “The Royal Tenenbaums.” What we’re alluding to here? Fur coats, of course, which have come back to the runways, streets, and front rows with a vengeance, while perhaps signifying the larger return of the 2024 “mob wife” aesthetic: all maximalist jewelry and smokey eyes and oversized, plush coats that may or may not be sourced from a real animal. But while the female characters of “The Sop...

The universally beloved label capitalizes on its top-quality suede construction, sheepskin-powered coziness, as well as silhouettes that both insulate the feet and don’t look too bulky while doing so: capable of meshing well with outfits from athleisure sets to jeans-and-leather jacket combos.

Queen Camilla opted for cool, contrasting tones with a touch of sparkle for her wintertime attire during a reception at St. James’ Palace in London on Thursday. The United Kingdom’s queen consort evoked wintery sartorial sensibility, wearing a dark blue dress with a sapphire and black jacket atop her frock.

Situated on the body of the garment, the black lines ran vertically and along the neckline of the piece, creating a modern framing technique that only served to highlight Queen Camilla’s glittering diamond brooch, adorned near the queen consort’s shoulder...

Few gift ideas have stood the test of time quite like a stunning bouquet of flowers filled with a variety of lush, blooming florals along with sprigs of complimentary greenery.

It’s easy — it comes, it’s beautiful, and the recipient just gets to enjoy the beauty of it. There’s no work on their end at all.” We’ve ...

While filming “Song Sung Blue,” Ella Anderson spent many nights falling asleep with Neil Diamond’s “Soolaimon” playing in her head on repeat. “I just remember laying in my bed, and all I heard was his voice,” says Anderson, who stars in the musical film about a Neil Diamond tribute band led by Kate Hudson and Hugh Jackman.  Anderson is hopeful that viewers will also leave the theater with Diamond’s songs — and the resilience of the film’s characters — lingering in their memories.  Based on a true story, “Song Sung Blue” follows the relationship of two middle-age single parents in Wisconsin, both struggling gig musicians who join forces to form Neil Diamond tribute band “Lightning & Thunder.” Anderson stars in the film as Rachel, the teenage daughter of Hudson’s character, who is the “Thunder” to Jackman’s “Lightning.”  “Craig [Brewer; the director] brilliantly captured the perspective of Midwestern people who are musicians, that are oftentimes not playing for the mass...

Dandelion, the West Village’s newest cocktail bar, has taken root. The late-night bar is the latest project from Eytan Sugarman and Will Makris, a duo that brings collective downtown nightlife experience that spans members club Zero Bond, historic bar White Horse Tavern, and Hunt & Fish Club. Sugarman took over the 115 Christopher Street space, located between Bleecker and Hudson streets, a little over a year ago. A lunch with Makris, a longtime friend, led to their first collaborative project.  ”We wanted this to be a place that was very different than the other places either one of us owned,” says Sugarman. “We’re really focusing on the cocktail program, small bites and the experience.

Gwyneth Paltrow’s daughter Apple Martin went back into the archives — and into her mother’s closet — for the Calvin Klein Collection dress she wore to the premiere of “Marty Supreme” in New York City on Tuesday night. The black dress, which hails from the mid-1990s, features a black scoop neckline and halter-style straps with a formfitting silhouette, long flowing skirt and cutout at the back. The dress made Martin, whom Paltrow shares with former husband and Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, appear even more statuesque than the 21-year-old model does ordinarily.

We all have that one friend or loved one who has wildly expensive taste… but has also done so much for us over the years that they, naturally, deserve an expensive (wildly or not) gift for the holidays.

“We had somebody misspell ‘cow’ a few nights ago for the first time ever,” says Lilli Cooper. “I think he said C-A-W. And then we rang the bell, and when he heard the bell, he was like, what?

Here’s something you might not have known before: Each year, 1-800-Flowers, a leader in fresh flower delivery services, announces a Flower of the Year and Plant of the Year. Today’s reveal for 2026 follows closely on the heals of Pantone’s controversial Color of the Year pick — the airy, nebulous, and all-white Cloud Dancer. Now, horticulturalists and amateur green thumbs, much like their color-obsessed counterparts, can also ring in the new year by embracing the latest cultural “It” thing, all while blessing their abodes with instant color and positive energy. The flora that will reign supreme next year, according to 1-800-Flowers? The delphinium and the money tree. While the former is a vividly blue (or lavender) flower that shoots up to the sky in vertical fashion, so eager it is to meet the sun’s warmth, the latter is a well-known symbol of wealth...

Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner took couple coords to a new level in their custom Chrome Hearts looks at the “Marty Supreme” premiere in Los Angeles on Monday night. The two-time Oscar-nominated actor and Kylie Cosmetics founder wore orange apparel for the red carpet event — a color tone reference to the “Marty Supreme” table tennis (or ping pong) balls featured in the film.

As she welcomed guests into dinner on Thursday evening, Google Shopping’s Stephanie Horton began by addressing the biggest theme of the week. “Welcome, thank you. I know the traffic’s awful,” Horton, the company’s senior director of global consumer marketing, said to the room. Those who had successfully battled Miami’s notoriously bad traffic during Art Basel week included Mickalene Thomas, Savannah James, Ravyn Lenae, Kimberly Drew, Yvonne Force Villareal and George Wells, who had gathered inside the Matador Room at The Edition on Miami Beach for a private dinner celebrating artist Lauren Halsey. Sadly, the artist herself was unable to travel for a medical emergency, and sent word via Gagosian’s Kathy Paciello. “Nothing would’ve made me happier than hanging in Miami with all of you tonight, celebrating and sharing this moment together,” Halsey had written in. “This is our fourth year during this event and I think for me the best part, it’s the ability to honor so many amazing artists ...

Newsflash: A pair of under-eye masks isn’t going to change your life or make you look 10 years younger. But anything that helps you take care of your skin and have fun in the process is a good thing. To our editors, the best under-eye patches are prized accessories in a well-rounded skin care routine — and self-care routine, for that matter (something that’s important year-round, but especially during winter). Compared to other areas of the complexion, the skin around our eyes is delicate and thin. This means that the facial region is often the first to show signs of fatigue, dehydration, and a poor night’s sleep — manifesting in swelling, dullness, dark circles, or a combination of the three. Under-eye patches are designed to be targeted treatments that bless their users with a quicker relief for their skin concerns than what’s to be e...

The Hungarian Countess Louise J. Esterhazy was a revered — and feared — chronicler of the highs — and generally lows — of fashion, society, culture and more. It seems the Esterhazy clan by nature is filled with strong opinions, because WWD Weekend has been contacted by the Countess’ long-lost nephew, the Baron Louis J. Esterhazy, who has written from Europe to express his abhorrence of numerous modern fashion and cultural developments. The Baron’s pen is as sharp as his late aunt’s and here is his latest column on logic — or the lack thereof. Over the years I am frequently knocked sideways and often amused at what one can only best describe as wildly “odd ball” logic. Yet many a time there’s a weird type of intellectual rigor about it, despite it being entirely wrong.I recently was chatting with a Turkish friend who has lived in the U.S. for years. She described how she was accompanying her aged parents on a road trip down the Eastern Seaboard. At one point, with her...

In the opening scene of “Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York),” lifelong New Yorker Robin gets to see her hometown through the eyes of an outsider. Cardboard sign in hand, she meets Dougal, a young Brit, at the airport, who’s arrived in town for his estranged father’s wedding to Robin’s sister. Before you know it, the pair are en route to Manhattan and Dougal is belting out his excitement for the Big Apple in a catchy pop-song tribute to the city.  Costars Sam Tutty and Christiani Pitts have moved well beyond the strangers stage as Broadway costars. The show has a two-person cast, and the pair share the stage for practically the entire runtime. The new musical lands on Broadway after a well-received run in London’s West End, followed by a production in Cambridge, Mass., this past summer. “ Which was so low key compared to this,” says Pitts, who starred in the Stateside production along with Tutty, who began the Dougal role in London. “ The stakes are higher in a lot of beau...
